I just saw this post from @mrwang:
Do not send money to @bitrex! @bittrex is the official account for Bittrex. Check the deposit options on their site and make sure you are filling in the fields properly.
Always "test send" a small amount first to make sure you are doing the transaction properly. I hate seeing people get scammed in crypto. Make sure you are not the next one!
EDIT: Update - @bitrex has returned to funds to @mrwang. Lesson above remains for the newbies though :)
We will add a blacklist of accounts to the GUI to prevent people from sending to them. You will still be able to send on the CLI.

I saw that from @mrwang, that REALLY sucks. Especially since its his first interaction with the site (the proceeds from his introduction post)

Update: @bitrex sent it back to @mrwang! Thank you so much @bitrex! Sorry I called you a scammer above, but it's pretty easy to assume in the crypto space. Thanks for keeping it legit!
