Agoradesk.com/LocalMonero.co is Scam!!!
The Admin of Agoradesk.com/LocalMonero.co telegram group https://t.me/LocalMonero is a Scumbag. His telegram is https://t.me/Alex_LocalMonero_AgoraDesk
This is a screenshot of my chat with him https://ibb.co/Nxfxxgb
I've know about LocalMonero for about a year but didn't really trusted them because it is shitty centralised platform and outdated website looks like crap, it doesn't build trust at all. And now, after loosing my money I know I should avoid even registering with them.
Agoradesk.com/LocalMonero.co scammed me for 9500 usd by blocking my account right after I deposited another 10 xmr
This is my account https://agoradesk.com/user/audy
You can see they add a message=reason inventing an excuse to steal my money, linking me to other profile who, I found out later, Alex admin of Localmonero had an argument with.
As I see now LocalMonero admin desided to co er his lose on my account. If they do it over 9500 usd than this means they have no trading volume and profit and ready to take your money just like that. They will make it look like it is your fault or whatever.
Check this https://t.me/MoneroUK/12051 I contacted this guy and asked him what happened between him and Localmonero(scammers) and it looks like I am not the first one who was scammed by localmonero aka agoradesk
Avoid this scammers and your money will be saved.

A crypto coin is simply a digital coin, created for making payments. Coins are created to act like money: in other words, they represent a unit of account, store of value, and medium of transfer. Crypto coins tend to take the form of their native blockchain, like with Bitcoin (BTC), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Litecoin (LTC) and Monero (XMR). Source: about 1 year ago

Initially we only offered Monero through LocalMonero, then we added Bitcoin with AgoraDesk. Didn't really see the need to add further coins as they would require extra maintenance costs while not really being actively traded P2P. Source: about 1 year ago

Not every exchange ran off with customer funds (i.e. Coinbase). And as others have commented, P2P is actually quite vibrant, it just doesn't get much attention. Check out: Bisq https://bisq.network/ LocalMonero https://localmonero.co/?language=en. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
