From what you’re describing it sounds a bit like a crypto honeypot … there’s a lot of sites that pose as crypto exchanges but are actually scams, they deliberately expose credentials and have accounts with (fake) millions of dollars in crypto money in them.
Except, when you go to withdraw there’s usually some restriction where you can only withdraw to another site account, so you sign up and are forced to deposit some crypto to activate your new account. Then you’ve lost your money.

- blahblarblar 4y agoAstounding the lengths people will go to avoid having to provide a real good or service.
- mpeg 4y agoYeah I wouldn’t believe it if I had not seen a few of these firsthand. So much wasted effort…
