Topic: To freebitco.in and their representative, TheQuin - page 11. (Read 5821 times)
Introducing fun token was probably one of the worst moves they ever did. The other was shutting down freedogecoin. They said they did it because they didn’t have time to manage two casinos but they do manage dplay. (And there was one more I guess) fun token is crap and its tx fees are high so I doubt many people invested in it. It also has zero usecase outside freebitco.in. Those 2 were the major business mistakes.

Dplay looks professional, they even have online chat support but strangely none of them are represented on Bitcointalk, they don't even have ANN thread here as far as I know. Btw it's also very strange that Freebitco doesn't respond but their signature campaign still continues.
Manager Hhampuz has just put the signature campaign on hold:
There's been an increasing number of concerns and reports about withdraws not going through on freebitcoin at the moment. I have requested TheQuin to give me an update or to post one publicly and until that happens I'm afraid I have to put this campaign on HOLD and would like to ask you all to remove your signatures and avatars for the time being. I am aware that a week has already begun and I will take care of you all regardless of the outcome.
The people who might know them, upper management of FUNToken. I sent them a message, will post if I get any answers.

I had some FUN, up to 2500 left on Freebitco.in to get my daily bonuses. I tried to withdraw my FUN tokens right now and I didn't receive a withdrawal confirmation email. I confirm from my side that there is something wrong with Freebitco.
They never advertise about Dplay here on this forum with also never have anything related to this site is understandable, but we have interesting thing few weeks back we have Freebitco signature campaign on hold and then paused, but suddenly we have @TheQuin who released the funds and signature campaign started again with he also gives few updates and solved few issues which was creating problems but now again as we need him he is not responding here with last appearance on 23rd May which is clearly showing he knows all things about this but not responding which is wired and creating mess-up about this site. Edit: Interestingly, I requested a withdrawal in the near past (2FA has always been enabled for me) and both were processed perfectly fine - very small amount though.
The same here but I tested it today and now FUN withdrawal doesn't work, can't talk about BTC.Dplay and Club Riches both are owned by them and according to the post made by TheQuin around two years ago, wetsuit may be involved in more businesses too.

Also, if I'm not mistaken they also run another casino dPlay, though, haven't tried neither of them. But I kinda doubt that's possible to run multiple casinos smoothly when there is just two people behind the curtains.
You are right about Dplay. Dplay and Club Riches both are owned by them and according to the post made by TheQuin around two years ago, wetsuit may be involved in more businesses too.
He's currently spending a lot of time on diversification with the new businesses. You've seen Dplay and Club Riches but there's also a lot more coming.
Edit:
Here is another post which confirms Dplay is also owned by them
Although we promote our other sites and the fact that you can link them to your freebotco.in account they have their own support staff. So any issues you have with Dplay need to be reported by email to [email protected]
I posted this in the other thread, but people should try getting in touch with Samuel Das, he is the CEO of fun token who are tied closely to freebitco.in. He might have some info:

I am beginning to wonder that they had a hot wallet compromised. On their site, they say only 5% of funds are in the hot wallet, but I don't think this is true. It's possible they've been hit and lost a very large amount of user funds. If that is the case, they are going to be thinking long and hard about what to do next, because its quite possible they may only have a small percentage of user funds left, and are unable to honour all the withdrawals.
Whatever has happened it does not look good at all right now, instant or slow withdrawals aren't going through, irrespective of whether email confirmation is required, or 2fa is used. Something is seriously fucked, because for the most part this system would have been automated. I get the impression they have STOPPED all withdrawals because of some serious issue, and the most logical explanation is stolen funds.

AFAIK, and if I remember correctly, the same group also runs "real" online casinos such as ClubRiches. Not very long ago, a ClubRiches manager reached out to me - I have just contacted him to see if he can be of any help - that is in case I am not mistaken.

Feel like its time for someone whose been affected to open a flag on them. Just let us know when its been done and I'll suport it. Will probably red tag wetsuit and TheQuin as well.
Maybe that's only way how to get reaction from them. If they don't react to all questions, maybe they will pay ettention to something what damages their reputation.Don't want to judge them too wuickly, but it's obvious that something doesn't works as it used to be. Previously they were known for great communication, transparency and looked like example how casino should work.
As you making a allegation about being directly affected by freebitco.in you should create a thread in Scam Accusations to explain the circumstances. As matters currently stand it seems by looking through this thread that there will be a strong consensus to support flags and negative tags, At the moment there is one thread in the scam accusations board about them but if problems are widespread there needs to be more threads.
Red flags were raised months ago for me, I asked Quinn what the contingency plan was should the only two site operators fall ill, die, or something along those lines. His response was incredibly arrogant, but the short of it was they have NO contingency plan (as has become very apparent).
I withdrew 90% of my funds at that point.
I'm waiting over 24 hours now to withdraw the last of my funds (which is still $x,xxx) but it is not looking good at all.
I am hoping they will eventually make good on users funds and that there is some personal issues their end, but there is a chance our funds are gone for good at this point. Feel sorry for anybody who has got a large amount in here.

timeline
===
May22
the last successful 2FA-withdrawal I saw was on May22
May23
TheQuinn last active on this forum on May23
I guess he logged in to check out whats-going on...
it's like he's a pyromaniac looking at the fire he started
May24
Friday 9am I started to panic because I can't withdraw my BTC due to the delayed email issue
it doesn't seem to be illness or accident because if it were, one of them (TheQuinn/wetsuit) would be telling us right now what's going on
unless, BOTH of THEM were murdered last week?
happened to be in the same serious accident?
something bad happened to both of them? I don't think so
they decided to steal the users fund?
===
I saw a death-threat post to kill TheQuinn/wetsuit on their official twitter... it was from a user from South America I guess
look at the last 3 post on their twitter account, you'll see his post
everyone doesn't take him seriously... but even if they are 100%anonymous... I'm certain it's easy to geographically locate TheQuinn/wetsuit or even the nominee 3741-9370 fake lucky winner
they left some clues over the past 11 yrs on this forum
===
can anyone find the way to see if their BTC-fund has any movement over the weekend?

As I did not receive the confirmation email, the funds went back to the site's account, but I have them blocked there, so I cannot withdraw them.
After all that has been said, in my opinion it is clear that there is high risk, and I even think that the official thread deserves a newbie warning flag, otherwise we are giving publicity from the forum, to a site that has blocked the funds, with a multitude of technical issues and complaints, and without support.

There is definitely something extraordinary happening and it looks like it has been going on for a while. TheQuin is coming online but not saying a word.
The worst part is, even if the casino was fine or half fine, now the players are queuing to withdraw their funds, it will trigger a bank run and I somewhat think the owners won’t be paying anyone from their own pockets. It get that impression because neither or them are saying a damn word.
TheQuin, blink twice if there is a gun pointed at your head please.

More than 24 hours since I created this topic and nothing has changed. It's still impossible to make withdrawal from freebitco.in.
I am still receiving promotial emails from freebitco.in as before, but I don't receive authorization emails. Their twitter account is also active and they posted their last tweet around 2 hours ago, but they don't say anything about users issues.

So, I've just received now the email for confirmation. I've confirmed and I get this.
I use 2FA, so I don't need an email confirmation, yet they are still not approving the payments. 30 hours passed.. I think they are intentionally creating the email issue. I have been waiting for 32 hours for my withdrawal request to be approved. They stole all of our money. Even Dplay says that they have no connection with Freebitco.in.

Well, their business is quite profitable, right? If so, why did their management decide to play like this and act like they don't care about their reputation which they have gained in the last ten years? Freebitco.in is the first website of many of us who have tried their faucet for the first time and had a chance to have some bitcoin without buying it. They have been running their business for a long time now and have a good reputation. I see Hhampuz did not responded here yet. Probably he is trying to contact them before he come here to write anything. I hope he bring some good news. But honestly speaking, this does not look good.
How did this end?
Did you manage to withdraw, given that you did not confirm via the link in the email whether the "funds" are still in your account?
I have some BTC sitting there, it's not a significant amount, but I will probably withdraw it (at least try) depending on how this discussion goes.

I doubt very much they have purposely stolen user funds. These guys have been around since the days of bitcoin being $1000, they are most likely multi millionaires assuming they've not completely mis managed their holdings.
Most likely it is personal illness, death, arrest, or some other circumstances like that.

yes it could be his/their illness(es), death (lost key risk), arrest or...
or murder (lost key risk) who murder who?
or lethal accident? (lost key forever)
or simply a scam stealing their users fund
or some clients are so lucky (like win 100-200 or 1,000-2,000 BTC or more and withdrew all the BTC) and caused liquidity issue with freebitcoin?
at least, their users should have the closure... knowing what is going on?
if it's accident/illness, I hope that they are not in a serious condition and get well soon
===
freebitcoin was run by 2 individuals as far as we know with the PR help from wetsuit's friend?
it's non-KYC online BTC-casino
some clients use it for laundering
most people just bet for fun... gain some sats thru the faucet
the freebitcoin was business-registered in Curaçao (obviously they were not born there and they don't live there)
===
TheQuinn and wetsuit guys are 100% anonymous (except that we can trace them via their PR account?)
===
can Bitcoin-forensic expert trace them in the case that they become a scammer?
BTC-forensic expert
===
lots of people said "freebitco has been operating for a decade... for 10+ yrs"
that why many people started to bet or deposit-for-earn-4.08%interest with them
===
in general, every bitcoiner/HODLer/BTCmaxi/everyone should have a plan for bitcoin inheritance because [the common COD-causes of death] of humans are the following
suicide
murder
illness
accident
or
vanish... become a missing person
what will happen to ur private keys
multi-sig wallets
===
the private keys to the vault-fund of freebitco.in
===
I have 0.1BTC in my account... my 2FA is not activated so I had to withdraw via the confirmation email
the email came in my inbox 50-hr LATE! the confirmation link in the email is valid for only 1 hr
so I still cannot withdraw my BTC
===
their PR account should let us know what's going on... as soon as they can contact TheQuinn/wetsuit
