btc-take.com experience

Hey folks. So I found a buyer for my olive products from Ukraine. We agreed he’d pay in bitcoins, but then he wanted to use btc-take.com instead. He had me set up an account, which I did, and then he sent me $9,000 worth of BTC. But when I tried to withdraw it, the site told me I needed to deposit 0.01 BTC first to "verify the external blockchain wallet" before I could take my funds out. That raised a red flag for me. I asked him why I had to do that, and he said it’s just how things work there. After looking into it, I saw the domain has only been active for two months, yet he claims he’s been using it for two years. Sounds super sketchy, right? So, has anyone here dealt with something like this? Would love to hear your thoughts. Thanks!

It's a scam There's no reason you'd need to deposit funds to somewhere before being able to withdraw money that's yours.

-Buyer ask you to create an account so he can pay in Bitcoin -This website ask you to verify by depositing This 2 are just common red flags for scamming you, in fact you are lucky if this is not a phishing website as well so if you used your email and password at a similar wallet you should change it now. Remember you are asking Bitcoin as a payment so there is no reason for you to create a new kind of account just for your to receive payment since Bitcoin wallets are compatible to send and receive regardless if you have the same wallet or not. Just don't talk to him anymore he is not interested in buying your product he is just there to steal your money.

Just for the record, I try to search for this scam website in this community and we have two old threads confirming that it is indeed a scam. [1]btc-take.com - BTC-Take [2]btc-take.com : Bitcoin MLM Network So as what the two posters says, stay away from this website.

uh-oh the website currently not working and better to check it on Who.is usually you will get some info from there
