https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.11661766

second: history

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/automatic-exchange-bitcoin-to-paypal-payza-credit-card-money-transfer-1019057

A simple google search (with a site that smell of scam) is a good insurance!

In conclusion, They are in UK go to police etc etc a good lawyer and I hope you get cash back!!

Hello,

You refuse AML verification.

support ISIS terrorist organization.

It’s our legal obligation to report suspicious transaction.

This case also will be report to FBI.

We also want remind you that bullying, threats of data disclosure on the
internet, posting offensive opinions before have legal evidence and asking
a private favor from security services is a crime too.

ok, I have to admit, that this reply should go to some "gold fond" of bitcoin history, because this is simply epic and showing, how morale disappeared these days.

I bet whatever, that name and position don't even exists and company itself is scam. what shocking me is, that OP is not so smart and willing to sent his money to such website, which looks like from 90's..

and of course on fake address and with hidden whois as always: http://www.whois.com/whois/havebitcoin.com

They then asked me to send an Identity Document (My Drivers License) and my Proof of Residency, along with a picture of my holding my ID.

I sent my DL, a picture of me holding it, and a picture of my FCC License (Issued by the USA Government). They said those documents could not pass their AML system, and that law enforcement would be notified.

I talked to them a bit more, and now they wanted an Apostille Clause sent.

It is now August 6th, and they refuse to refund me my BTC or pay me. I opened a case within IC3 and was contacted by the FBI they would be pursuing this, and that they have the suspects name and address (Even though the domain had whois protection they had the registrar release the info).

Hi,
you can contact them through the forum:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/havebitcoincom-504278

There is also a thread about their service, in th Cheesy Service Announcements section!
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/automatic-exchange-bitcoin-to-paypal-payza-credit-card-money-transfer-1019057

Someone in June seems that got same issues:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.11523403

After some days this user understand that he got scammed!
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.11540125
And the society is "real" and actually is in liquidation

People from this company are simply THIEVES and FRAUDSETERS.
It is be great if have any member from UK,that the Inspectorate before fraud others members.

It seems like there is already an article about AG Global Markets Limited being a scam company, with the National Fraud Intelligence Bureau - City of London Police being notified.

- http://www.scambook.com/report/view/261946/AG-Global-Markets-Limited-Complaint-261946-for-$160,000.00

OP You care to comment?

After this post the OP not reply to other users.
I am sorry, probably you got scammed.

Maybe they are UK citizen it's not hard to get some info about their conduct.

Well it looks like you have things under control. I hope the authorities help you in some way. Try to stick the better known exchanges from now on, with so many out there, there is really no reason to use these unheard of no-name exchanges.
