The website crashed so I was unable to download the LoG and I have proof of sending the transaction through to MCM. But okay.
LoyceV is simply implying that the sequence you should have followed to ensure security was to download the LoG first, then to deposit.

If they really scamming you, try to contact the organization where they have registered their domain.

I have created a flag.
I have Opposed the Flag because you have no evidence. I've seen mixers that could use a Letter of Guarantee, but choose not to provide it. That means they don't provide the customer with the means to prove foul play, and that means they're partially to blame for having a scam accusation without evidence.In this case however, MyCryptoMixer provides all users with a signed Letter of Guarantee. You could (and should) have saved the LoG before making a deposit. Therefore, the lack of evidence is entirely on you, and I'm not comfortable Flagging a user because of that.
I will however leave neutral feedback with this post as Reference.
FLAG UPDATE
Still haven't heard anything guys. So after 36 hours of waiting for even the faintest response, I have created a flag. Losing 13 btc is no light-hearted matter. If you're in my trusted network (as a newbie, I am sure there are only about 2 or 3 of you) please support the flag if you feel inclined to. I guess it could potentially help prevent this situation from happening to anyone else.

Thanks.

This sucks, I think if you used the genuine URL you will be OK. My concern is that you sent your BTC to a phishing URL (please say it was the genuine website).
That's not enough, if you use non onion websites on Tor, many exit nodes try to steal your BitcoinThat did not happen. The 13 BTC went to the address specified in the genuine website, currently unspent in the blockchain.
I know the site was genuine and the coins went to the correct address. I checked the PGP. Moreover I'm not using TOR, I have my own VPN and I used secure incognito mode of Google Chrome.

They (selectively) remove HTTP-to-HTTPS redirects to gain full access to plain unencrypted HTTP traffic without causing TLS certificate warnings.

It appears that they are primarily after cryptocurrency related websites — namely multiple bitcoin mixer services. They replaced bitcoin addresses in HTTP traffic to redirect transactions to their wallets instead of the user provided bitcoin address.

Definitely free of malware and 100% used the correct website.
Thank you for your positive wishes.

Is your computer/device free of malware? Lots of people get scammed by downloading malware which changes certain characters of the receiving bitcoin address to an address connected to them.
I really wish you the best because it’s a lot of money.

Agreed. Naturally worried as it’s been 24 hours as opposed to 32 minutes but I am relaxing and attempting to leave room for things to be corrected. Not sure what could have gone wrong on his end, but whatever it may be I am hopeful that he will fix it once he logs onto this or checks his email?
I’m praying that I didn’t lose everything. It’s stressful because i liquidated everything I own in order to reap the benefits and join this epic financial revolution aaaaand, yeah. If I lose it I’m fucked lol. That being said, all I can do is wait and learn my lesson through this avid anxiety.

This is also before I made the transaction.
The 24 hours will be up by the time I hear from him but I am sure he can still track the transaction and process mz mix should he choose to.
Assuming that everything follows normally from your deposit to the desired output addresses, I see no reason why the transaction wouldn't go through if the owner decides to go through with the mixing process. It's not like you have to prove anything for the coins to be mixed properly: you'll still get them at the end of the day.The 24 hours will be up by the time I hear from him but I am sure he can still track the transaction and process mz mix should he choose to.
No need for any verification, really.
Writing again because the 24 hour window expires in 4 hours and although I've sent countless emails I haven't head back from MCM
They haven't been active on their forum account either: last active time (GMT) is February 23, 2021, 02:22:24 PM
FYI this is before you even started your thread.

Okay, I wait anxiously.
I know this is a trusted mixer and I am so happy to spend hours positing positive reviews on all threads and channels once this matter has been cleared up. Please MCM, please please get back to me as soon as possible.

Do you have any advice on how to proceed? I still haven't gotten a hold of anyone from their team.
There is no "team", just one guy. All you can do is wait for him to (wake up and) respond. I see several crucial mistakes, and I'm going to point them out because I really don't get why people keep doing this:
I know it was really stupid and hope at least other users can learn from this mistake.

All of this means you literally have no proof whatsoever to backup your claims, while you could and should have had a signed message. But even then, a one-man operation could be very tempted to take such a large (and for many people life-changing) amount of Bitcoin. Selective scamming has happened before and will happen again. It's trival to add an "if amount large enough, then don't return it"-setting to the server routines.
I'm following this case to see how it evolves. In a similar (but much smaller) case the mixer said the funds were sent to a different address:
Mistakes made
- Depositing before downloading, saving and verifying the Letter of Guarantee
- Sending a large amount of Bitcoin to a relatively small and unknown service
- Sending your entire Bitcoin savings at once to a third party
- Keeping your life savings entirely in Bitcoin

I do not know the reason for this, had we have LoG we could confirm whether it was an user error, or a malicious actor's doing.
So you didn't download your LoG? Did you at least save the order id? If so, try to download it now with this url: http://mymixerxtukle6mo.onion/api/order/YOUR-ORDER-ID-HERE/letter
You're right. I redacted the information, do you think that's the right thing to do?
Make sure to remove it from the image-hosting service as well.In the case of any verification, you can do what I said and sign a message. If you sent from some service, there are most likely ways to prove that as well - for the sake of your privacy, I think obfuscating the transaction details is fine. Once they reply, then you could disclose it discreetly via PM.
