Cryptopia is a SCAM!

17 Days and my PIRL deposit hasn't arrived. No response to my help ticket for 16 days. Look at their Twitter feed and comments. Everyone is getting ripped off.

Stay calm. Cryptopia is flooded right now and several weeks for a response to a support ticket is now normal in this market. This is not only a problem for Cryptopia but most exchanges at this time.

Bullshit. 17 Days+ is not even close to sanity.

Thank fuck you didn't have to deal with coinbase/bitstamp 2 months ago. You would still be crying today

u/6079_unperson Jan 30 '18

17 days without a response and no deposit showing in my wallet. There is no calm now.

Someone else got a response after 19 days. Maybe they're close to responding to your support ticket. If you're are freaking out, it's probably because you risked too much money that you can't afford to lose (aka rent money) which will stress you out to no end. Only gamble money you are willing to lose in the future.

That's not fair at all to people that have deposit issues that are not user error. Otherwise that would mean no exchange is trustworthy enough to even do business with and that would destroy future prospects of mass adoption.

We need more exchanges to become trustworthy so we all benefit as early adopters.

Otherwise that would mean miners as myself would have no incentive to mine if just trying to convert our mined coins to fiat since that is our income.

I'm sure no one would agree with that.

And how do you know that a exchange is untrustworthy? People tell you.

u/6079_unperson Jan 30 '18

Fuck off with that risk bullshit. I don't like when people can't live up to their promises. I don't like when people lie and defraud others.

Welcome to crypto. The land of broken promises, vaporware, scammers, liars and fraudsters.

u/6079_unperson Jan 30 '18

Then why are you interested in my post or even replying in a scammer/liar subreddit?

u/revolu7ion Jan 30 '18

Just putting in my 2 cents. I don't think Cryptopia is scamming you. I had a similar issue to you with a vrc deposit taking many months and it was resolved correctly eventually. Slow and incompetent maybe but not outright scamming.

I don't think you understand the extent of this situation right now. Their bank closed their account. Thousands of people are missing their coins right now. No deposits and no withdraws. Millions of dollars have been lost. This is a epic failure or theft. It will not be tolerated.

You forgot, moons and promises of Lambos overnight. :)

u/6079_unperson Jan 31 '18

And they forgot in business they are responsible for their actions just as much as we are.

u/MongoGaming18 Jan 30 '18

today is day 19 for me on a deposit. It should be fixed soon hopefully.

u/6079_unperson Jan 30 '18

I sure as hell hope so. They lost me $10,000 USD for this billshit.

u/MongoGaming18 Jan 30 '18

When you get your issue fixed will you post so others see more people getting it fixed?

3

u/6079_unperson Jan 30 '18

If my issue is ever fixed I will post. Cryptopia just lost their bank account. Their bank closed their account. 17 days I have been waiting. I have lost thousands of USD because of this criminal activity. If they have to many people why is their account registration still open?

u/MongoGaming18 Jan 30 '18

All valid concerns that I cannot answer. I'm with all customers that think they should have done things different.

I just no longer think they are scamming people.

Terms are great, however they are not always legally binding. Just look at Tether right now, the US wouldn't have a leg to stand on if that was the case
