I really need your help on this. It has stated in my wallet that i've received my bitcoins of 1.182691BTC on 29/05/18. This's my wallet address: muFjdWSy2DKStSP2gUH2aHZq6kRBva8ZDV it stated on the insight.bitpay.com. It stated confirmed. However, i can't send out to another wallet address as it stated insufficient funds. Please advise me what should i do? Is it a scam? I really need the money soon. My mum is in icu & needed the money soon. I got into mining because i want to earn more money to help my mum.

My transaction ID is b2898b8c5f5f01f573e768ec21fc4f15c1e433e7255960fb71551f06cec36651. It seems that my transaction confirmed. What should I do next? I’m stuck.

enter image description here


I was told to create a bitpay wallet & tick Testnet & Single Address. And i have received 1.182691BTC on 29/05/18. I wanted to send this bitcoins to localbitcoins to sell my bitcoins, but i was prompt that it's insufficient. I'm wanted to sent out the whole bitcoins i've to my other wallet apps. When i see the insight.bitpay.com, my bitcoins is stated in Total Received & Final Balance. But it's not under Total Sent. And indicated (U) - Output is unspent. This money is very urgent for me, i need it for my mum illness.


What should i do now? There's nothing i can do right? It's a scam right? Now i'm in huge debts. The miner said i will not be able to use them because they're being held in escrow by the bitpay servers due to bit large use of bitcoin payment. Until i pay USD $1000 then they will ask bitpay servers to release it so i can use it.


Yes i do have all the conversations & the profile of the fake miner. He still said he's a christian that won't scam people. He knows my mum illness so he definitely won't scam.

    test net, as the name suggests, is used for testing purposes and not real transactions. The main net is where you get real bitcoins... No wonder why I wasn't able to get this transaction id on any of the websites. – Junaid Shaikh Jun 01 '18 at 03:54

    You received testnet Bitcoin, they are completely and absolutely worthless. You do not have any actual Bitcoin. – Ava Chow Jun 01 '18 at 03:54

    Your "miner" is not a miner, just a con-man. Everything they say is lies to trick you out of more money. – RedGrittyBrick Jun 01 '18 at 18:43

This is a scam.

You should report this to your local police.

However your money is gone and you will never see it again.

If you pay the scammer the $1000 they ask for, they will just come up with another reason that you need to send more money or just ignore you.
