Binlinex.com is Almost Certainly a Scam

6 Feb

If you’re in the crypto space and on TikTok regularly, you may have seen these posts with coupon codes offering free Bitcoin simply for signing up.

As you can see in the TikTok below it shows someone entering a promo code into Binlinex.com and then being rewarded 0.28 BTC which is roughly $8500 CAD. Now ask yourself does this sound too goog to be true? That’s because it is!

I went ahead and signed up so you don’t have to. See below for more.

I created an account, and claimed several of the promo codes.

As you can see from my wallet, I have almost $70K in bitcoin from these promo codes. Now I should be able to withdraw these funds right? Wrong! In order to “Verify” my account, I am required to provide a deposit of nearly $500 in bitcoin. Nothing could possibly go wrong sending $500 in untraceable funds to a new web site that popped up on TikTok today right?

This led me to have a deeper look at this service and domain name.

The domain was registered on February 4th of 2023, yet their web site says they have been in business since 2018?

 

This domain is registered and owned by someone with a Russian email address and a New Jersey address for a company that claims to be based in Australia. Enough red flags for you?

This is almost certainly a SCAM and you should keep your money away from Binlinex.com at all costs. There’s no way any legitimate crypto exchange is giving away $70K to a new user just for depositing $500.

Stay safe out there you guys! There’s scammers everywhere!

This is What 37 Looks Like

6 Apr

April 3rd 2022 was my 37th birthday and I celebrated with my family not only being a year older, but also a year wiser.

Life has been interesting since the start of the pandemic to today. A lot of things have changed, but more importantly, I am starting to reach some of my adult goals.

Mentally I’ve established a few goals for myself that I have never put on paper or written them down anywhere. I figured with my birthday having just passed, I should write them down and see how far I’ve come in life. There’s a few I’ve managed to cross off the list, and others that are still in the works, so here we go:

  • Fall in love and get married.
  • Have a couple of kids and raise them with my wife.
  • Get into a career that I am happy with.
  • Make some money and help people.
  • $100K in savings before 40.
  • 100 Pounds lost this year.
  • Quit Smoking for Good.
  • Form better eating habits.

There are a few items above that are still a work in progess however overall, I am quite happy with how far I’ve come!
