Topic: SCAM cryptex.net hold my fund 210,000$ and refused to pay back (Read 931 times)

I sent dark origin funds to cryptex.net platform, maybe i did not know about their origin. I admit my guilt, the arbitrator of this forum decided to return the funds to the addresses from where they came. But I can not accept money to the addresses from which the money was sent. The Cryptex.net forgave me, and also agreed to withdraw funds to other addresses. I apologize for all the inconvenience and cancel all my complaints previously published.

This is excellent work. Thank you for digging deeper in to this scam.

It is precisely this types of conduct by these types of scammers that needs to be exposed otherwise they will carry on scamming with impunity.

Sadly crypto world has far too many scammers and criminal gangs which are trying to create an environment which allows them a regular income stream from stealing crypto that belongs to other people. Who knows where those proceeds from criminal funds are actually diverted to and how they are being used to instigate more criminal activity far worse than stealing crypto.

Thank you for your contribution to helping fight, expose and hopefully ultimately defeat as many of these criminals as possible.

Why not give a call directly to Vitalii Zaderei  +79312691131
Or send him an email [email protected]



https://www.locatefamily.com/Street-Lists/Ukraine/index-385.html

I have found that Vitalii Zaderei own more than a 100 domains, one of those domains is hstoretech.com and the ip of that domain is 194.58.112.174 as is says here https://domainbigdata.com/hstoretech.com
That ip is linked to malware, hacking, Phishing, ddos and many other illegal activities, as is says here  https://ip-46.com/194.58.112.174

Maybe cryptex.net can come here and explain this

Wow... what a behaviour from this robotic man from cryptex fakechange!!
Nobody from Bitcointalk forum will ever use this fakechange, and sure scams can exist for years, but not this one.

@ PuyaMaster

If you want I can help you report this scammer to the legal authorities. He needs to be reported to several authorities. What is your next step now it is clear they will not help you?

He is lied about the website being an exchange (no mention of it being a front using 3rd parties is listed anywhere) and they broke data protection rules by posting your private correspondence.

I am not asking for anything in return, I just want to see scammers like this have their scam websites and operations shut down and hopefully they will go to jail.

They didn't tell me anything when we made the deposit, but they freezed my account after I deposited the assets into my account. Why didn't you stop me when I started?

Thank you, I agree

I guess most users would be attracted to the  "Fully anonymous, no verification" and "Without limits and restrictions, transactions for any amounts" statements on their website home page: https://cryptex.net/

That's not a correct awnser to your customer who has 210k stuck to your service.
Only trolls replies to trolls.

Also your volume is fake. Your bot is too much understable, rethink it before ppls starts to get it.

I don't want to join the discussion before but I hate what you just said in the above message cause is totally unprofessional and immature way of doing business.
A customer charged you of scamming him of 23.82 BTC and the forum was making sure he get his coin back as they usually did while you're here saying they're just wasting their time.
I guess you underestimate the purpose and the power of this forum.

the exchange could have earned more than $210k if it had gain trust from OP. people might begin to trade there.unfortunately he already went nuts with given the opportunity to scam. i'm really surprise why OP picked this exchange, its not even known to anyone here until this accusation comes.


i doubt you will still try to promote the business given the fact that you have lied about the reason why your freeze the account. you are going to scam more.

As soon as the victim gives the go-ahead you will be reported to Companies House for the lies and deliberate misinformation you state on your cryptex.net website as well as as a report to Binance and the SEC based in the US. You are falling foul of too many legal jurisdictions and when they take an interest in your website hopefully they will close it down.

I already exposed the name of Vitalii Zaderei from Ukraine (who has given the address as: Apt. 14, Pr-T Geroev Stalingrada 4, Kiev, 04210, Ukraine) even if the ID was used without consent to register the mailing address cheap company - he will be notified by the relevant authorities while they investigate: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/super-scam-fake-exchange-cryptexnet-5200391



You deserve jail time you scammer. I hope it comes soon.

Sorry but cryptex.net is not an exchange, is a black hole where the user coins get lost, in fact cryptex.net uses Binance to exchange their users coins.

So avoid at all costs cryptex.net or you will get scam by them and then after you get scammed cryptex.net will post your private information on public forums like bitcointalk.

Very sad this situation how can cryptex.net scam like that, hope the authorities step in soon.

I have archived this post again https://archive.md/yCr5C to help with a possible criminal prosecution against cryptex for its scammy tactics.

Not on a forum but in this branch, our exchange platform will continue to work for many years and your funny pseudo exposal posts haven't affected our work at all, you just wasted your time.

Goodbye. I hope you do not post in this forum again.

We are about to finish the proceedings here, the opinion of those who spoke out is not authoritative for us, the proceedings are in progress at the forum where there is an arbitrator, his decision is to be guided by.

That exchange is generating fake volume approx every minutes ?

Now the only response your post warrants is screenshot along with a question mark about your motives.

You aren't embarassed that the OP is lying and avoid providing quite simple information to cope with the issue? You aren't fit for the role of investigator because you aren't objective and tend to blame only one side no matter what, for unknown reasons.

That does not give you the right to breach both UK and EU data protection laws.

Your cheap mailing address trash LLP company registered in Scotland is in breach of both laws even though you never stepped foot in the UK and have no office, team or anything else anywhere.

Which confidentiality are you talking about? You already posted this topic, posted screenshots from your account, started to accuse us openly. You also lied that those were not your transactions, and we have no proof. You force us to provide evidence publicly and you became unsure after we did that. Wouldn't it be much easier if you just replied in tickets and save your privacy? If those transactions were made from your financial system, at least you can show some screenshots which prove that you initiated the transaction and those funds weren't stolen or weren't involved in blackmailing. It was your decision to post the issue and make it public, not ours.

First of all, I am not sure if those transactions are my previous operations.
If, as you said, explaining the source of ETH funds can now lift the blockade of the account, I can tell you that our funds come from our financial system from start to finish.
This is my explanation of the source of funding, I will not provide additional information, I have felt that you have begun to leak privacy, no privacy!

Probably the scam exchange is breaking the law more now that is publishing users private information without their consent

Please note that the customer is trying to escape responsibility for previous transactions he processed and accounts created on our platform.

On October 23, the client performed 3 ETH deposit operation to the account, the belonging to which is now denied.

Addresses:
0x4F2BdA409c3E7A9fc13ab0814642EAAdc6DDd066
0x7C48B417B832d3f85A09b84c294122E715596aF7

There was a USDT erc20 mistake deposit to one of them, we didn’t accept USDT erc20 at that time at all. At the beginning of Telegram correspondence which TS haven’t deleted yet, he says:




Did we chat with you here last time?

Later, the same telegram account that had been connected to the locked account was connected to all previous accounts for notification purposes. Don't make things worse and lie to us in the open!

What can you tell us about Bitcoin withdrawal of 9.90696378 BTC
TXID: 1165d9e5eade06d604df7f5f45c03e85a47bd49afda2315104db4a5b438445c3
which you received for selling your ETH mentioned earlier.

You processed confirmation actions on our platform using the same Telegram account which you connected to all previous accounts. And now you tell that account isn’t yours! We are ready to unblock your account if you only explain one particular transaction. Why wasting so much time and writing so much text? Wouldn’t it be easier to provide all necessary information and simply close this case?

The problem you have described, and I have nothing to do, why I want to prove?
You because of funding problems of others, freeze my account, I was an innocent victim.
Will the problems my account yet? Why do you want to freeze?

I have not changed my statement, this is my third time using your platform.
You don't have any evidence to prove that the funds you have said are caused by me.[/quote]

If their previous post about Binance is true, it seems they might be using one account to trade all crypto through Binance and the problem is actually between Binance and cryptex.net

They really have messed up by lying about the nature of their "exchange" to lure investors in.

I have not changed my statement, this is my third time using your platform.
You don't have any evidence to prove that the funds you have said are caused by me.

I think you are making a huge error here. Nobody could give you a trail from beginning to end on 90 transactions.

You clearly stated in your website "FULLY ANONYMOUS, NO VERIFICATION":

[/center]

Mr Vitalii Zaderei i think you going to jail for fraud

Dear Scammers. Please return the STOLEN funds to OP a.s.a.p. Otherwise I recommend the victim to follow my recommendations that I posted earlier.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.53051023

Did you change position? And the accounts for which we requested information did not belong to you?
You personally stated here earlier:

From first to the last message, our manager with whom you have kept in touch has connected your new accounts to your telegram account, and although you have deleted correspondence, it does not cancel your direct affiliation to these accounts. As you did a few days ago by telling your new Account ID to us via Telegram, it is the same way you have done the same thing before. And you shouldn't say the opposite things - frank lies will only aggravate the further dialogue with us.

Let's limit ourselves to the ETH operation from October 23, 2019, your incoming funds on the exchange platform:
Deposit 458.71460000 ETH. Details: 0x4F2BdA409c3E7A9fc13ab0814642EAAdc6DDd066
Right after making an exchange on our platform, you fully withdrawn BTC you bought.
Will you explain the source of those funds?
We won’t ask for the information for the rest operations and will unblock your account, send back your funds to the addresses they were received from, but right after you provide us with the information on this ETH transaction.

Dear public, at this moment we would like to draw your attention to the fact that TS changes his statements while changing his shoes on the move and denies his connection with the old funds because he has nothing to tell us and couldn’t find any other defense line.

Exactly

I think at this point, it's beyond removing your feedback even if they sort out PuyaMaster's case.
- There are way too many negative points for this so-called "cryptocurrency trading platform".

That’s outrageous!
- SMH.

They're asking you to provides sources of funds for accounts "other than those you created"?
- Looks like they're out of ideas...

This exchange is a complete scam,
I hope other affected users come here to start a criminal investigation against the owners for fraud.
They use a third party exchange to run their scam.

For a newly registered account, you directly freeze the funds and let me prove that the source of funds for another account is legal. Is that my account? ridiculous!

I received a reply to their ticket,Requires proof of funding for up to more than 90 TXIDs.
But I would like to ask, how do you prove that these are my transactions?
I doubt very much whether these concerns me.

We are using a third-party payment gateway, the platform administrator for the protection of privacy, unwilling to provide written evidence,And we believe that there is no problem with our previous trading funds.

Imagine!
I thought they were even an independent exchange 

They are shady as hell and their acts could probably be the reason the funds were blocked on binance and now they are bringing the blame to the customer.

Basing of the findings, these chaps are not to be trusted at all and i think it's time for me to leave my negative feedback... Until the sort out their mess at least.

Nope, apparently "Binance" is in control.

---

Initially: "law enforcement agencies"
Now: "those platforms"

---

Corrections:

Several of your accounts

You bought

---

In other words:
- Your so-called "cryptocurrency trading platform" isn't a proper exchange/trading platform after all.

---

Still waiting for Cryptex to answer the above questions...

So basically the scam exchange cryptex is using their users coins to do trading for their benefit.
That is fraud and in most of the countries that is 5 to 30 years imprisonment.
The scam exchange cryptex got the coins lock, maybe because Binance got fraudulent transactions in the past, so that makes me think that the exchange is involved in something more dark, maybe is helping to launder dark market money. This is a serious offence in most countries, life sentence.

I have taken this thread and i have archive it to help in with the criminal investigation against cryptex
https://archive.md/VUBFw

Why do you advertise  NO KYC for Cryptex everywhere and on social media and then ask for this information from people?

You also say that you respect privacy.

Where in your terms you say about case like this?

Our customers. You need to read carefully, and not generate new and new speculation. We expect information from the PuyaMaster via ticket, until then additional comments will not be published.

A different client had bought ETH from the PuyaMaster previous time, sent it to binance and got his account blocked with request to confirm the origin of ETH. We also ask PuyaMaster about the origin of his crypto.

So you are using a third party in your deals? In this case it is binance. It is now understandable why they blocked your account. You tried to exchange customers money via third party exchange which has very strict rules regarding big deposits. That has nothing to do with your customer, because you did not inform him that third party exchange will be involved. He could exchange his funds HIMSELF on binance without your scammy assistance. The only reason he used YOUR exchange was the anonimous policy offered by you. Now you digged a hole for yourself with your own hands. Just return his money and deal with binance yourself because it was YOUR FAULT.

Binance request regarding USDT and ETH with block the funds of our customer.

I will ask him to communicate with you. Hopefully everything will be resolved and he will get access to his funds.

You have to keep in mind he might not be able to provide anything of substance as the length of time between him obtaining and trading those crypto and then sending them to your exchange.

Whatever crime he committed at least he deserves to know the exact reason the account was blocked.  If it was due to illegal gambling then state it to him that way.  Otherwise with all those stories nobody is going to believe you here because we have seen scammers pull of such stunts before.

I don't think PMing admin will help that much because at the end of the day DT members will still keeo their negative feedback on your account without seeing any "evidence"  you sent to admin.

Just so you know,  scam is not moderated in the forum and i doubt admin has time for that too.

We don’t want to launch dialogue with people who have a one-sided position. We repeat that we are ready to solve this situation and unlock funds, with the assistance of PuyaMaster. This situation can be resolved in 1-2 days.

If what you say is correct kindly explain which law enforcement agencies you will send his $210,000 to and when will you be sending it.

Was it Interpol, Europol, FBI, CIA, UK Scotland Yard that contacted you?



Ridiculous. There is no evidence any attempt by the OP at money laundering occurred but you have changed your story several times.

I think it is time you returned the funds to the OP and we can all move on.

Whenever you see Qiwi, Yandex money, Tinkoff, e.t.c... Consider it as a Russian or Ukrainian scam and stay away.

Now the question to OP of cryptex.

Is your exchange LEGAL ? Could you show us the REGISTRATION documents, like where is it registered and who is the owner ? Victims will need that information to proceed with LEGAL ACTION against you, due to online theft and fraudulent activities.

There's a rule paragraph 3.9. You also represent and warrant that you will not be using this site for any illegal activity, including but not limited to illegal gambling, money laundering, fraud, blackmail, extortion, ransoming data or the financing of terrorism, or other violent activities.
Apparently this rule was violated. The PuyaMaster ticked the box to agree with the rules. There's a fact that we do not require personal data of the client, document scans, videoverifications etc. (and we have not requested it and do not require it) as well as our advertising said, this still does not mean that our platform can be used as a dump for money laundering.

 Maybe you should tell him about this 3rd party, this legal authorities you claim.



That is what you advertised in your ANN thread here but you hold the funds of PuyaMaster, that seem to be a clear information. If I have to see it, its almost like a DEX but of course cryptex is not.  But why advertise in a way that people will assume he won't  have problems later on.

They advertise the scam exchange as no verification, no limit and then they lock you in and freeze your account to illegally steal your coins

We see the solution of this situation as follows: the victim provides us with sources of the funds, we provide them to third-party platforms, and if those funds are not of criminal source, we will be unblocked there, and we will unblock client's funds at very the same moment. This is all that is needed to resolve this issue. The victim withdraws the complaint and the homegrown Pinkertons apologize for the insults.

supporting the flag against the scam exchange cryptex

OP of cryptex tagged. Flag supported. You should done a better research on that exchange before depositing such a huge amount.

The victim (PuyaMaster) was not familiar with the process so I advised him to create a flag against the cryptex.net scammers.

I request you all support this flag against them and their fake exchange:


https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/cryptexnet-1235755

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=1235755

Since October 27, we have been conducting individual work to unlock the funds of our customers on external trading platforms.
Today we sent evidence to the administration of this forum, and it will not be published to self-proclaimed investigators.
We are not going to send blocked user’s money anywhere, funds are on wallets controlled by us. As soon as the PuyaMaster's funds that were involved in operations on external platforms by our users are released, his account will be unlocked and then he will be able to use the funds at his own discretion.

Nice find.

So yes they are proven scam

It is located in Russia Ukraine probably, and they don't have any KYC whatsoever,
as you can see in their official Twitter:
https://twitter.com/cryptex_net/status/1189495018484043776

Clearly you are defending cryptex scam and you are a suckpuppet account

Meh... I was reading scam board since september when decided to go in crypto, and found this topic interesting due to huge amount. Anyway I don't like crime in any of its manifistations, even if it's a scam or anything else. So nothing to blame me for, just my thoughts on this.

From start to finish, I kept in touch with their official contact, didn't change my identity, just registered a new account for exchange.

As you said, if my funding source is really problematic, I will tell them that the first two funds transactions are me?

So you are a brand new account that makes its first ever post in the forum and somehow you found this thread to post and defend Cryptex scammers?

What's not clear? Accuser most likely deposited fraud money, reported everywhere and wrote that he had few accounts owned by him on this unknown exchange.


Saying that every next use of exchange he created new account for this is strange. Will any adequate user (not criminal) do things like this and create new accounts for each operation again and again?


Then he disclosed info about his three accounts to exchange representatives that he used before. I'm almost sure there's a fraud hidden behind this funds.

Anyway, in this situation it looks almost impossible to unlock funds. Even if exchanges like hitbtc and binance usually make a mess of funds origin approve. But good luck futher, maybe I'm mistaking.

The last time I heard the "law enforcement agencies requesting the freezing of funds" excuse was when ChangeNOW used it with a forum user called ni23457 with the intention of selective scamming him but it backfired spectacularly as can be seen here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/changenowio-evercode-lab-scam-illegally-holding-of-100-bch-11-bitcoins-4619534


UPDATE: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/super-scam-fake-exchange-cryptexnet-5200391

It shouldn't be a secret anymore. After blocking the customers funds, they should as well be able to maintain transparency by telling the customer and us what exact reasons lead to the account blockade, which security service asked for the blockade and what the way forward is.

I am not buying this story until it's clear which law enforcement agencies ordered for the blockade and way? I mean crime is crime, why hide the details now when it's critical?

Another way would have been to reverse the deposit and return the money to customer if they are not comfortable with the fact that the origin of the funds is unknown. What is so hard with that?

He also posted that: "funds were blocked by our security service on November 8th 2019, funds are still kept on client’s account but will remain blocked Until the investigation is completed"

and "his block was caused by requests from law enforcement agencies"

Those are typical excuses used in the past by scam exchanges to steal money from their users but let us wait to see a further reply by the Cryptex.net account

Where is this exchange located?
Because the new KYC/AML regulation in Europe maybe they are asking you for more proof that you are the right owner of those coins

I have known that exchange for a long time and I have traded there for around $ 500. There is no problem at all in withdrawals or deposits, but for a fund of $ 210,000 they might suspect they are afraid of money laundering.

If what you say is correct kindly explain which law enforcement agencies you will send his $210,000 to and when will you be sending it.

Was it Interpol, Europol, FBI, CIA, UK Scotland Yard that contacted you?

The company offers No deposit/withdrawal fees. You don't see that offer anywhere. Too good to be true so I'm not surprise if they are going to snap with an amount ridiculously entrusted to them.



We've all heard that before. How do you come up with the conclusion that the funds are of unknown origin? 

It must have come somewhere of course. I don't think OP will be interrogated and will be asked to send proof.
Unknown exchange suddenly got $210,000, getting them back is a long shot.

Hello!

Client’s funds were blocked by our security service on November 8th 2019, funds are still kept on client’s account but will remain blocked Until the investigation is completed. This block was caused by requests from law enforcement agencies which included particular TXIDs of the client operations held through accounts created on our platform on August 30th and October 22nd this year. This user performed large trade operations with funds of unexplained origin with a further request for deleting a personal account.
User created a third anonymous account on our platform on November 8th 2019 and deposited a large amount of funds of unexplained origin. Then this user contacted our manager through Telegram messenger (our official contact) and provided client’s ID and told about the large amount of funds a client is going to deposit again. At the moment of that visit, several of our partners’ accounts were blocked on third-party trade platforms. Those blocks were caused by the requests from those platforms concerning those previous operations made though our platform by this client before.


That’s because this user’s funds are of an unknown origin and illegal, and a user tried to do a money laundering not though big trade platforms which you mentioned, but a client was hoping to put his dirty money into our platform with impunity.
The Exchange keeps in secret everything related to our clients' operations, including this case. However, the client himself chose to make the case public. Therefore, we publicly request to cover losses incurred as a result of using the exchange to launder criminally obtained funds, as well as to provide the necessary information to minimize the damage.

You are right, it is clear the OP did not research the exchange. Any research by the OP might not have shown evidence of scamming or selective scamming but surely an exchange with a reputation such as Binance would have been a better option than one hardly known to anybody.

Before any flags can be created we have to allow time for them to respond to the allegations then take things forward.



You ask a valid question as it will be needed to present as solid evidence of communication between the two parties.

I already am fairly sure of where this is situation is heading because $210,000 is no small amount of money and once an owner has been blocked from accessing their own funds it usually means they will not see them again when it comes to exchanges that have the DNA of cryptex.net (I will elaborate further soon but will wait to see if they reply to the accusation made here).



I also never heard of this exchange before, it was the first time after I read this thread. Like you I cannot understand why anybody would trust these types of exchanges with large amounts of crypto when there are trustworthy alternatives out there.

Let us see what they do next. Will they reply or not.

My first time hearing about such an exchange. Why do you even trust such non reputable exchanges which such a large amount in the first place yet we have the likes of binance, kucoin etc?
It's not my money but i already feel so sad for you.

If they are scammers, that's a very decent amount for them to make an exit scam. I am giving them about 24 to 48 hours to respond, or I am going to tag them

Bitlish?

---

Can you provide timestamps ^{[preferably an image, not a copy-pasted text]} for each of those events?

---

Just to be clear, you meant they scammed you twice?

---

"JollyGood" has a good point. I'll tag them shortly ^{[hope it also helps in getting a faster response]}...

They have a self-moderated thread, that itself is not a good way for any project to move forward but anyway I sent them a message: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.53037723


If this is a matter of $210,000 then things need to be resolved now before it starts dragging out.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/cryptexnet-1235755

I think you didn't research very well because if you really did then you will not send that huge amount of money to that unknown exchange. I knew Cryptix but never heard of cryptex. Maybe belive the shill account on this forum that promoting that exchange. Can you give the link of there ANN thread that you saw so that we can report them to the forum admin and start making them a red flag.

What happened::

I did research on forum and found cryptex.net is a good exchanger,And confirm with them that no kyc / aml certification is required,can apply to delete account at any time.

Before the funds were transferred, the manual customer service told me that the platform is still running safely.

The manual customer service asked me how much money I was going to transfer, and I told him that there was a $210,000 digital currency transfer.

After the funds were transferred,  when I began to exchange, everything changed. My account redemption and transfer were disabled, and only the transfer was enabled.

At first they said that there was a problem with the system. I waited for a long time and told me that I needed to submit the ticket to their technical team to fix the system problem.
Finally, after waiting for a long 24 hours, their technical team finally replied to my ticket.


It's all traps, I have used it twice, Seems alright, Each time re-registered account digital currency exchange.

Disabling my account happens to happen when I notify them that the deposit is complete and I want to start the exchange.

I deposit of digital currency has been transferred them to another address.

They unilaterally told me that there was a problem with the previous transaction funds, did not provide any evidence, and had no deadline for freezing.

Now online customer service refuses to reply to any of my information, only communicate with them through the ticket.

I deposit of digital currency, it has been transferred to their wallets
