Topic: [SCAM] Crex24 sudden KYC - while Crex24 wishes to stay anonymous (Read 738 times)

Hi Philippe
I am sorry to read your plight.
this might be to late but on 10/07/2020 the company was still registered when you wrote your topic.
if you read what I said, you might be able to find out more about the "Right of representation
Entry 5: The liquidator is Paap Suurmaa, personal identification code 34609220339"
I am unable to help you more on that as I did not check him out, maybe you can? I am unsure of the laws to Estonia and how you can at least try to get some money back.

Salut Philippe
Je suis désolé de lire votre situation difficile.
c'est peut-être trop tard, mais le 10/07/2020, la société était toujours enregistrée lorsque vous avez écrit votre sujet.
si vous lisez ce que j'ai dit, vous pourrez peut-être en savoir plus sur le "Droit de représentation
Entrée 5: Le liquidateur est Paap Suurmaa, code d'identification personnel 34609220339 "
Je ne peux pas vous aider davantage à ce sujet car je ne l'ai pas vérifié, peut-être que vous le pouvez? Je ne suis pas sûr des lois en Estonie et de la façon dont vous pouvez au moins essayer de récupérer de l'argent

forgot to add this.................
I have been searching for Crex24 and found a few negatives for the western world.

As this is a Russian exchange first launched in 2017 and registered in Estonia (reg. number 14419665)
The Crex24 exchange was aimed at Russian speaking persons.  

To check the registration >> https://ariregister.rik.ee/ettevotja hope you can read Estonia as I was a little confused with it as I am in Australia
I did not want to start paying to get the actual companies information.
Anyone from any country can register a company in Estonia  you do not need to be from Estonia to register

I did find the following:  

Entry 3: The business name is CREX24 OÜ
Entry 3: Address is Harju county, Tallinn, Kesklinna district, Tornimäe tn 7-169, 10145................ on tracing this address I came across the following
       https://www.teatmik.ee/en/personlegal/12461485-PRIVATE-FINANCIAL-SERVICES-O%C3%9C if you search this link it will ask you if you're a robot
I think this might just be a business office where one can register an address

At the time it is managed by Arcknit Holdings Limited, whose headquarters are located in Limassol, Cyprus:  per https://en.bitcoinwiki.org/wiki/CREX24
Even though Crex24 started trading in early 2017 they were not approved until 05/07/2018

I checked the business name and registration number of Crex24 and the information is as follows:
Their capital share is EUR 2,508

Entry 3: The business name is CREX24 OÜ
Entry 3: Address is Harju county, Tallinn, Kesklinna district, Tornimäe tn 7-169, 10145
Entry 3: The email address is [email protected]

Right of representation
Entry 5: The liquidator is Paap Suurmaa, personal identification code 34609220339

Legal status
Entry 2: The legal form is a private limited company
Entry 3: The Articles of Association have been approved on 05.07.2018
Entry 1: The financial year starts on 01.01 and ends on 31.12
Entry 5: The shareholders decided on 29.09.2020 to close down the company. <<<<<<<<<
2nd entry: Avirofix UÜ is 31.03.2018. transformed into a private limited company with the business name Avirofix OÜ on the basis of the decision.  

THE CONS:
Crex24 does not allow persons who live in the following countries, UK, USA, Canada and Israel to use the trading platform.   maybe this is a godsend.

KYC:
Passport (prefered) or Drivers Licence/ country ID  and facial recognition tool plus full name and address  

Deposits and withdrawals:
High withdrawal for BTC 0.001 sats today's market at $60.83usd BTC @ $60832.90 USD today
Deposit USDPM (Perfect Money) 2.50%. Withdrawal 2.00%
Deposit EURPM (Perfect Money) 2.50% Withdrawal 2.00%
Deposit RUB (Qiwi Wallet) 2.00%. withdrawal 2.00%
Deposits via bank transfers can take up to 2-5 days
Crex24 reserve the right to delay customer's withdrawals for up to 72 hours for security checks.
Crex24 does not allow the transfer of funds between customers' accounts.
Cards issued in the US are not allowed for deposits and withdrawals, but they do like to get the USD

THE PROS:
Good for the Russian people apart from costs as it is aimed at them.
count not find many other pros, as not a keen person with KYC

The Crex24 domain was purchased on 06/06/2017:
Nameservers:
LIZ.NS.CLOUDFLARE.COM
NED.NS.CLOUDFLARE.COM
server Ip 104.18.10.70 Server Location   San Francisco, CA, United States
Crex24 is alexa ranked 12822 and gets 450,258 page views per day, it has a valuation of $190,120.00USD to $648,720.00USD

Warning though: Crex24 is not a scam, but it is also not a trusting company[/color], or should I say a high risk, the directors are all hidden as are the developers, and being a limited company they are only limited to the amount of the registration when first registered.
The company owners could be Russian.
Unless you are Russian and know your laws, you will fail to get your funds, if Crex24 closes or fails as a company.  

As for the western world I strongly do not recommend trading on the CREX24 platform  

THROUGH THE INFORMATION I HAVE JUST SUPPLIED YOU WILL NOTE MANY WARNING SIGNS BE VERY AWARE OF THIS EXCHANGE AS IT CLOSED THE BUSINESS BUT CONTINUED THE EXCHANGE ??  

 I hope this is enough info for anyone who needs it to check out Crex24 exchange and make that choice  

 I had a spare hour to check it out for others that are interested, so I hope this helps you all.  

I read BCT a lot but say little and pretty much keep to myself, occasionally I will say something  and hope it helps others as I have in the following comments to CREX24

it is happening again I have barely read this forum it is a pity not to see it before I regret

Even if the loss was not much the fact remains they stole from you. They are scammers, that is what all the forum should be aware of.

CREX24 est une plateforme d’escrocs, à éviter absolument.
Mon compte a disparu de leur plateforme du jour au lendemain et malgré les documents (N°de compte....) et les
multiples justificatifs fournis, il n'ont pas rétabli ce dernier.
 j'ai du faire face d'abord à leurs réponses évasives,puis à leur silence total et au final ,je pense avoir perdu
totalement mon portefeuille (6000 euros environ).
J'essaye de trouver un moyen de récupérer ma mise et j'ai envoyé ,en première démarche,un courrier recommandé.
Merci de m'envoyer des infos susceptibles d’accélérer cette procédure,mais je pense que nous sommes nombreux à être
dans ce cas là.

its really bad to hear that now crex is required KYC for withdrawls because ive been used this exchange about 1 years without doing any kyc on thier websute ,but this is also one of the benefits identify of scam project developers, because most of scam masternode project are listed on their website, this is good to know who the guys behind scam project that dump & pump their own coin on this exchange.

Normally I won't go there I was just trying to dump some shit coins on that exchange. Luckily the loss wasn't much

Good move. Do not let them bully you with any emails because their primary function would be to get your ID. They cannot be trusted.

Why did you deposit in a new exchange ? When there are already many reputed and good exchanges available there is no point in depositing at a shady exchange. Such incidents happen every day but no one gets any lesson from them. I would only use a low volume exchange if i had to trade a coin which is only avaible on that exchange.

After I registered with crex24 they all of a sudden ask me to do KYC, and after that they told me that service was not available in the US and Canada. There's no warning when I first logged in and registered with them and that's how to scammed my personal information. Also they blocked me from trading so I will lost quite a bit of bitcoins in withdrawal fees

What a shady exchange. Don't trade on crex24

Thanks for the advice. Wont give them anything!

I have tokens earned from bounty campaign listed here. Just recently, so dissappointed that they list their token there now I need to wait again another listing since this exchange is scam.

Its easy for you to say, cause your account is newbie.we'll be needing a higher rank account with the same assurance about that exchange but unfortunately I think all says its a big scam.

Supported the flag they have bad reports since 2019, it is just right that you did not push through with submitting your vital information because they will eventually run away, we should also stay away from projects that wants to hold their IEO here too the risk is to high now to trade on Crex24.

Do not send them anything because your ID might be sold on the black market to scammers and cause you more pain in the long run. I would advise you to not send your KYC to these scammers.

Any genuine exchange would allow you to remove your funds before KYC deadlines were introduced but any scam exchange would hold on to your funds in an attempt to seize them under false pretences.

Been affected too. It seems that even trading on exchange now requires KYC. Never received an announcement from Crex24 regarding newly implemented KYC. I don’t know how they will handled that kind of sensitive information. +1 from me to the flag you raided!

It is obvious this sock-puppet account was created to post on behalf of the Crex24 scammers. I added this user to my IGNORE list.

Another shill account. This kind of stupid lies won't work here.
Account created at 02:00:54 AM, then 2 minutes later, it starts  defending the scandalous exchange (Archived) Try harder!

Crex24 not a scam at all. been using it for years without a problem 

@OP

I am sorry to learn about your loss. A scam is a scam regardless of whether the thieves stole 0.03066087 BTC or any other amount.

You did the right thing by not sending your KYC. I have no doubt these types of exchanges hold on to KYC and sell them on to criminals as and when their situation facilitates it. Had you sent your ID they would probably have not allowed you to withdraw anyway and they probably would have made some more money at your detriment from criminals after they sold your ID to them.

I hope others manage to read this thread and do their research before sending their crypto to Crex24 and other scam exchanges including p2pb2b, coinsbit, whitebit and exrates (all linked with Ukrainian scammer called Valerii Solodovnyk)
