<p>All,</p>
<p>I received some BTC to my coinbase wallet after someone asked me to setup custom network using the below setting. I received the BTC but I couldn't transfer to any other wallet and the says invalid BTC address. Am I scammed? Network name: Bitcoin RPC URL: <a href="https://testnet-rpc.satoshichain.io" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://testnet-rpc.satoshichain.io</a> Chain ID: 5758 Currency Symbol: BTC Block Explorer URL: <a href="https://www.blockchain.com/explorer" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://www.blockchain.com/explorer</a></p>
<p>Any help is much appreciated. The person who sent me this wants me to send money so he can validate the wallet address.</p>
<p>Is this true?</p>
<p>I'm not going to pay anymore but want to know if the BTC he moved to my wallet is real or fake. I read that any cypto sent using testnet doesn't have any real value. The guy used testnet-rep.satoshichain network so please tell me if this is fake or real BTC</p>

Thanks for your reply, so I guess the URL he used is a testnet URL? it says testnet on there but just wanted to confirm. He is keep saying that the BTC he sent was real. He says there are many ways the BTC can be transferred that I don;t understand.

# Is it real BTC or fake

(Asked by: username_0 on 2023-11-14)

All,

I received some BTC to my coinbase wallet after someone asked me to setup custom network using the below setting. I received the BTC but I couldn't transfer to any other wallet and the says invalid BTC address. Am I scammed? Network name: Bitcoin RPC URL: <https://testnet-rpc.satoshichain.io> Chain ID: 5758 Currency Symbol: BTC Block Explorer URL: <https://www.blockchain.com/explorer>

Any help is much appreciated. The person who sent me this wants me to send money so he can validate the wallet address.

Is this true?

I'm not going to pay anymore but want to know if the BTC he moved to my wallet is real or fake. I read that any cypto sent using testnet doesn't have any real value. The guy used testnet-rep.satoshichain network so please tell me if this is fake or real BTC
