Problem Live markets.io and i-coin.io scam alert

[AS2017]

If they keep delaying the process and making you jump through hoops etc, then there is no reason to continue. They do not plan to return your funds. I would go to the police as well, as they probably asked for a lot of ID. I believe there is a high possibility of identity theft that could take place.

Yes they did take many IDs also to get a refund they wanted pictures of your credit cards and drivers licenses etc which I found odd as well. We didn’t send anything further either. I believe they are also doing identify theft

Hi,
Well, Im very curious about their agreement too because I can't serve good news in relation to my case. All I have they approval of my 250EUR withdrawal, not the total found in my account and it takes 10-15 business days what is ridiculous because when I deposited into my account it was quick and took only a few min.
My next step is to open a crime report to local and international authorities if I wont get positive feedback from I-coin about my refund during this week.

I think the best thing Is to report these people to authorities. My mother is still being a naive fool and thinks they we will be returning her money and she is speaking to them even now to try to resolve it however she has been given the run around and doesn’t seem to understand they will not return your money.

Which authority can we report them to?

Which authority can we report them to?

I think you can start off with your local police non emergency line and then once you explain it was a scam online etc they will be able to direct us to the right authorities and how we can go about reporting them to maybe a international cyber crime authorities. Once I figure it out I will happily post what I found out if It helps you out.

I would be grateful if you could do that.

I have also lost money from a related company similar to this. It is called CCX Markets, which is similar to CCX Exchange it appears. I have been trying to withdraw money from my account of $10k and they are unresponsive. They said that to withdraw, I have to pay for taxes upfront. I am now in a bind because of these guys. DO NOT put any large funds without testing their withdrawal policies first and doing your *extreme due diligence*. This is very important. This has been a very expensive lesson for me. I hope anyone who reads this

why do you think by making a test withdraw, it means they are genuine? any form of "investment" which using btc most likely is scam, because the transaction is not reversible.

for trading various crypto-vs-crypto, only use well known crypto broker, such as bitstamp, gemini, bitfinex, okcoin, poloniex, GDAX (now known as coinbase pro), not all crypto broker is regulated as government still have no clear regulation on cryptocurrency, so even if you are using legit crypto broker, someday the owner of exchange can tell their exchanged was "hacked" and all coins gone, you are still on your own.

if youre looking to trade BTCUSD only, nowadays all forex broker already have that (best option for most ppl)

for institutional, professional trader, they prefer trade bitcoin futures, it is fully regulated, the downside is not for retail, and high capital required
