I have problems with Virtex (https://virtex.com). I have deposited 100$ 4 days ago and my money are yet in pending. I deposited there from payza. They told the money from Payza comes max in 48 hours but are gone 4 days and nothing. And the big problem is that no one answered to my tickets.

I found Virtex at my Payza account and I thought that this site is safe because of this. But because of they above actions I think that they smell scam and Payza must be responsible that collaborate with such kind of sites.

Thanks for telling here, some one recommended me to exchange your money payza to btc on here,

Thanks

Glad to help.

Any news ?

As far as I know, there is no further information or news relating to the scam. However, if you are referring to my report, it is unlikely that I'll get any direct response from the FBI due to the fact that the value of my losses were only $156 although they were made aware of the broader scope of the scam.

I just filed an official complaint at the FBI's website.
I completed a form and submitted it.
I included links to articles about their scam.
Additionally, I gave them my deposit transaction history.

Hopefully, this will at least make them aware of the situation.

I am quite sure that both Egopay and Virtex are being investigated by authorities somewhere right now.
There are literally thousands of people who have lost their funds and are very angry and want to see appropriate action taken against them.

You would have to search for PTC and HYIP forums to see more discussion about the matter.
Since this is a Bitcoin forum, not too many people here are probably concerned about EgoPay.

Scams are not legal. Some of us are working on getting these guys to justice.

Yes, both egopay.com and virtex.com are gone ...poof, off the air.
But the crooks behind them are still out there, and they still have all of our money.

The virtex website is offline. Running off with the money

Good thing I took snapshots of my entire account...knew this would happen. Grin

What are you going to do with the snapshots ?

Nothing really...
It's just for record-keeping mostly.

At the same time, in the event that these scammers get apprehended and go to court, there is a chance that, folks who have proof of being scammed can actually file a claim and get part or all of their money back.

It looks like they closed it because too many illegal funds came in and they will have to check every single transaction.

They have the right to close their business for whatever reason they want.
But they DO NOT have the right to abscond with funds that do not belong to them.

If Virtex wanted to close because of [insert reason here], then that is perfectly fine.
Just make sure you pay us first.

We are the innocent victims and it is our money that they have stolen.

it might be temporary.

Let us hope so. Bring the site back, and then start paying the oldest account holders first.
I am one of those with money stuck in Virtex, which is owned by the same crooks that are also behind Egopay.

There is no reason to go offline "just like that".

I completely agree. They should at least explain what is happening (that is what company blogs are for), and then let us know how they plan to refund the money that they owe to their users.

Otherwise it is theft and that is a criminal offense.

I have read about this on a few news blogs.

I am not defending them or accusing for anything, just saying that it might be temporary.

Learning the troll avoidance button :)

Geh $10,000 that is a lot of money
Best of luck with the recovery and I hope you get them they mimicked Cavirtex in name but it still sucks to see people getting money stolen though.
Although with both sites shutting down now guess this type of scam with these names won't recur again at least.

I wrote a Support Ticket Requesting a Refund of all my Payments to virtex.com plus the release of information about the Virtex Business Account holder.
Within 24 hours of sending the ticket Virtex disappeared and went offline! Grin

Not saying there is a connection although theories abound.
Anyway they pretty much told me what I expected to hear from them while completely ignoring the request for info.

"We remind all of our members that they complete their purchases of their own accord.

You are responsible for performing your due diligence on any Sellers with whom you plan on doing business.

Payza provides third-party payment processing services and carries out related actions on your behalf. By initiating and sending payments through the Service or adding funds to your balance, you appoint Payza as your agent to obtain the funds on your behalf and transfer them to the designated receiver.

For further clarification please visit our User Agreement: https://www.payza.com/legal

However, if you are not satisfied from a good or service purchased, the option to file a dispute through the Resolution Center is available so long as the transaction is within 45 days. If the transaction is beyond this time frame the status for filing the dispute will read as “Expired” and the option to dispute this transaction will cease."

When the FBI or relevant authority comes calling, I'm sure they will have no choice but to hand over all requested information.

I regret that I have not read this thread earlier.

Now I cannot connect to anything of virtex.com
I have around 10,000 USD with them and I just wish if you have anyone who have already filed a case with police, please also let me know.

OUCH! This is definitely grounds for a criminal case.

Do you have proof or evidence of your funds? The police will want that, especially if we are going to seek the extradition of Mantas and Tadus.

Like bitboy earlier in the thread, I also took screenshots of my account (as well as kept a folder with other documentary evidence).
I know exactly what I am owed, right down to the last penny, and the only way that these scammers can avoid the consequences is if they begin to pay back what they unlawfully took.
