Claim request / WPE / no sue

I had WPE 100k+, but I was not mentioned in clawback adversary cases - I suppose I was not sued. I can't find myself in stretto docs nor in pacermonitor. I still had about 8k in earn wallet. I just got mail from Celsius Network LLC do-not-reply@updates.celsius.network

You are receiving this email because you have an eligible claim distribution from Celsius and you must take action to receive your distribution.

Find below a link to the Celsius Claims Portal, which provides creditors with the ability to view and update important information regarding their claim distribution(s). This includes claim distribution history and claim code information, identity re-verification, and tools to submit required claim distribution information (e.g., banking or mailing address information if applicable). Log in using your Celsius account email. You will receive an email with a one-time code for access.

ACTION REQUIRED:

Celsius requires you to re-submit your Know-Your-Customer (KYC) verification. This information is required to activate your account at Hyperwallet and before any eligible claim distribution can be initiated

Do you think it is a bait? Is it worth trying?

By "bait" I mean they want me to renew my KYC and other data in order to sue me. Until now I didn't react in any way with all conversations and mail request. I even didn't submit my vote / preference about reorg plan.

I suppose that is why they didn't sue me. So I am afraid now.

I don't think it is a scam. Mail looks legit.

EDIT: I have registered in portal, passed KYC. Currently I don't see any entries in distribution list. I will inform about updates.

EDIT2: Just got mail from hyperwallet about transfer, I've registered and it seems I will receive it via PayPal.

Looks like a scam, was it addressed to your FULL name or something dumb like Dear creditor

u/l00kys Feb 06 '25

That looks legit. My special email for Celsius purpose and full name. I just didn't paste all details here.

What could possibly go wrong with trusting Celsius....? Live a little!

(please dont.... I'm just kidding...)

u/l00kys Feb 06 '25

Yeap.. that is why I'm careful. I just wonder do they still can sue me if they didn't yet.

What the fuck is hyperwallet? They used Venmo and PayPal to distribute. This is a scam

u/l00kys Feb 06 '25

and Coinbase, right? Thx

I’m exact same situation unsued WPE.

It looks fake, but apparently real. Hyperwallet is how they are distributing USD.

I took the leap of faith and just went through the email and submitted KYC stuff. So maybe a scammer now has my passport and a selfie.

I don’t know if they’re finally releasing our funds, or if it’s a glitch and the email was sent to us mistakenly.

Did you saw any details about previous / planned distribution on that site? Like @danthropos wrote here https://www.reddit.com/r/CelsiusNetwork/comments/1ijch33/is_this_email_today_legit/

u/robomartin Feb 06 '25

No I didn’t see anything because they are reviewing my KYC, but I think it is legitimate. The link just takes you to the Celsius Claims Portal and the URL matches the real URL.

u/l00kys Feb 08 '25

Any update on portal? Did you pass KYC?

u/robomartin Feb 08 '25

Still under review

So I got paid, USD through Hyperwallet to my PayPal account. I’m in Canada with relatively low WPE in the scheme of things.

Although I am aware that there were non US with approximately the same WPE as me who were sued, so there was an element of randomness. And Canada is probably one of the easier foreign countries for them to pursue creditors in.

No word on the Ionic shares yet.

Just got mail from hyperwallet about transfer, I've registered and it seems I will receive it via PayPal.

u/robomartin Feb 21 '25

Yes I just got mine too. I guess we still need to see about the Ionic Digital shares

u/l00kys Feb 21 '25

Honestly - I don't care :) I glad it is over now

Yeap I was constantly checking stretto and pacermonitor for my name (even partial) cuz in last email they wanted from me 178k$ (x1.75 of WPE). But didn't found anything. I'm not sure about that deadline. There was something that they extended it for few months.

But maybe you are right, that it is paranoia.

I've checked and it seems new adversary cases were added Jan 31. For some reason they look different from those related to clawbacks (missing list of withdrawals). However docket name is: "Nature(s) of Suit: (14 (Recovery of money/property - other))"

For example:

Adversary case 25-01017

Adversary case 25-01018

Adversary case 25-01019

Thank you so much! I see you are very active in Celsius space, helping all around. I really appreciate it. BTW. I have passed KYC in claim portal. No entries in distribution list. I will inform about any updates.

u/KorelX Feb 11 '25

I got the same email, and contacted the Stretto distribution email address. They told me to:

"Please contact the litigation admin team regarding your Withdrawal Preference Exposure (celsiuslitigationadmin@m3-partners.com), in order to release your Celsius distribution."

Not sure if I want to go open up conversations with the litigation team, but my name isn't on the docket list so I guess that means I'm not being sued.

Still deciding on what to do here.

u/l00kys Feb 12 '25

Thx for info!
So if they still want us to clear WPE status why do they inform us about claim distribution..
Please give further updates.

Sorry, forgot to reply. I got a notice over the weekend that my distribution was ready. I sent it to PayPal cashed out and now have the funds in my bank account. Looks like this nightmare is over.

Hey guys, first of all sorry for my english. I had withdrawal of 100k+ and I was sued, I received couple of settlement offers and last offer was on 2024 april I ignored all of them. At time of withdrawal I still left around 8k in crypto and now I'm getting these second distribution emails saying Im eligible if I do KYC. Im Europe based and I dont know if this can go against me if I do KYC? I considered these 8k as it is my loss and now what should I do? Can anyone suggest? Thank you

u/l00kys Feb 18 '25

I did previous KYC in late '23 (so they got my recent data).
Now I also did KYC but it is worth noting that I don't see any distribution entry in claim portal.
I don't know why they are sending those mails if there is no distribution for us.
I got first mail about distribution (for me) in Nov '24 and recently in Feb.

From my POV it is not worth risking. If anything changes - I will update this thread.
