Ask HN: $ 6000 Stolen from me by Sequoia-backed Coinswitch / Kuber - What to do?
Works well until it doesn't. Suddenly they steal your funds, refuse to return them demanding KYC -- but then refuse to ever complete your KYC, stalling perpetually.
In my case, they stole over $6000 in Ethereum (which originated from Coinbase) from me a little over a month ago, and despite my submitting KYC multiple times and their not saying there's anything wrong with it, they continue to tell me just to wait. This puts me in a terrible financial situation over the holidays, the timing couldn't be worse.
Countless reviews online show them doing the same to MANY other people lately, buried beneath hundreds of suspicious looking positive reviews.
This startup is apparently based in India and well beyond the reach of any legal measures.
What would you do?
