Freewallet.org stole my money - any safe ways to send $30 as Bitcoin in Pattaya?

[simon43]

I very rarely use crypto, but I did have $94 in a FreeWallet account that I hadn't used in maybe 3 years.

 

I needed to send $30 as Bitcoin.  So I logged into the Freewallet website as usual.  (I checked the URL etc) and all was good.  The webpage prompted me for my 4-digit PIN, all as usual.  Then the website logged me in and there was about $94 in my account.

 

But then the website froze for about 30 seconds and then..... there was no money in my account! The thieving bastards at FreeWallet had stolen my money....

 

I still need to send my $30 to a Bitcoin address.  Are there any walk-in crypto offices in Pattaya where I can do this?  I'm loath to open another online account since I have (tending to zero) trust in these online exchanges.  Or if it's not possible to send from an office, then which online company is considered 'safe'

 

I did go into the 'Pulse' shop on Pattaya 2nd road 'cos it was all written in Russian on the windows, and I thought it was a Crypto exchange, but the gay man inside just wanted to give me an HIV test (which I don't think is needed prior to dealing in crypto!!) 🙂

 

 

Thanks!

It sounds like you have a virus on your computer from a Scammer. Definitely don’t do any online banking until you’ve checked.

Nope - that is not it.  My computer is clean and I've used it for several years for banking without ever any problems.

 

The problem is FreeWallet, and googling about them supports my view.

 

Can you answer my OP question about how/where to send $30 in Bitcoin?  Thanks
