RE: What's Your Poloniex Horror Story? Share it Here.

in #poloniex7 years ago (edited)

Poloniex would never ask for you to 'send your deposit' again, unless the message is from a blue staff member it should be ignored, sounds like you got scammed :( sorry to hear that, if it's not a Poloniex address they might not be able to help you.

Sort:  

Sounds like it was a Polo address but with special instructions . I'm considering taking all my coins off poly and putting them in a wallet, but I'm scared that while I do this I'll somehow lose them all in the process. What's the best wallet the covers a lot of altcoins? Exodus is my favorite so far.

I love Exodus, especially with the shapeshift integration. Although I started using a KeepKey hardware wallet, which also has shapeshift, and no longer use Exodus. For NEM I use their Nano Wallet. I like that you can split your funds across multiple wallets, but in general, I find the wallet to be fairly clumsy and ugly. I wish there was a wallet that managed more currencies, but I'm unaware of one. Like you, I wanted to keep my coins off Poloniex, so I transferred them to the Nano Wallet. It was when I tried to put them back on Poloniex so I could make a trade that I made a mistake.

I used the android official wallet. Seems okay . But polo charged 15 xem to transfer 60.

Nem recently changed fees to 0.1 lowest or whatever you choose.

It's actually nem +

To clarify, they didn't ask me to send the deposit again, they asked me to make a small deposit of around 6 nem to my address, using the proper code this time, so they could verify it was me. That strikes me as a reasonable request and only risked about 60 cents.

Ah, in that case it may be legit and they're checking you against other stuff, it might go well in that case, hope it works out, if it makes you feel any better I locked myself out of my own account on Steemit after I reached 100 followers so this kind of stupid shit happens to everyone.
