Is CoinRiz a Scam or Legit Digital Asset Trading Platform?

Yeah, I also got a DM on Discord. It was from RanchoBrancho#6096 Nov 22, 2020 7:11 PM. We shared one mutual server which they later left. I'm pretty sure that it's a scam as well.

This was the message that I got. Even the code is the same.

Yesterday, I was just chilling on discord, and all of of a sudden I get this dm. It reads:

so with this, I do some investigating. I ask around and found out a friend of mine got the same dm, but from a different person. Interesting. So I go to their website after searching up "coinRIZ" and found NOTHING. No websites or anything. So I used a fake e-mail, and I made an account. No e-mail verification. None whatsoever. Weird, considering this is a website that deals with money. So I use the code and it appears that I got the 0.61 btc(about 11,000 usd). I skipped the verify instruction, because it would probably require bank account info. So anyways, I went to the customer support. I asked questions like, "Is this a scam" or "Why have an email box if it is not verified or even needed." They either ignored questions or gave phony answers like "Our exchange is designed for both regular users and those who prefer anonymity. Therefore, we do not send confirmation by mail." And I call them out on ignoring questions. They ask which questions, and I give them the list: "if you are doing giveaways, shouldn't you make that public information on your website?, why do you have multiple discord account, such as rking2212 and Bewbiez #2696, that aren't even similar, to notify winners, when you are only notifying a few people, and why don't you confirm that a user uses your website. up until now, I have never heard of your website." after that, they accuse me of "ignore(ing) my answers" and threatening to "take appropriate action." So I said "I am not ignoring your answers. I have red them quite a few times." If you are interested, here are the answers:

"It makes no sense for us to scam you and lose the reputation of our company as well as our major investors! We work strictly under the contract in accordance with the laws of world trade! Upon completion of the verification, you will return all your transactions back and unfreeze your entire balance! Please follow the rules of the trading exchange!"

"Thus, our company not only gives people the opportunity to earn money, but also attracts new users to our site. This is done by our specialists from the SMM department"

"Our exchange is designed for both regular users and those who prefer anonymity. Therefore, we do not send confirmation by mail"

"If you have registered multi-accounts, they will soon be blocked along with your account. We are not trying to keep anonymity for ALL users who do not want this - they can verify their account with the KYC system, you do not carefully read what I am writing to you. Please follow the rules of the trading exchange and good luck!" This one is interesting because up to that point, I did nothing to break the rules. All I did was ask questions

"What questions? What questions did I not answer?"

"Read my answer what I wrote earlier"

"If you continue to ignore my answers, I will be forced to take appropriate action."

"If you continue to ignore my answers, I will be forced to take appropriate action."

Those are all of their answers. In the dm, it said that I was chosen from a list of crypto currency servers, while I know that I am not, and have never been in a crypto currency server. Also, the UI for the support is very messy. The message box is small, and the email of the user covers the messages.

This is just my experience with this "company." This along with now knowing that the company is a few days old, leads me to believe that it is a scam.
