Very hard to tell from the screenshot you've provided if that is the legit Skype account or one of the fakes...


Personally, I'd email [email protected] and give them a made up codeword like ”scammersSuck987” and ask them on Skype to confirm the codeword as per Baikal's suggestion on their "[urlhttps://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1804508.0]how to identify Baikal account" thread[/url]...

Emails addresses are easy to fake messages FROM, it is a lot harder to get access to messages sent TO an address.

So make sure YOU send the email... And ask them to confirm YOUR code on Skype.

Also, double check email headers of emails you receive to make sure they're not coming from email spoofing sites like the screenshots above

guys, today I got email from [email protected] and they are selling the giant miner,
they gave me a bank account details to pay in $.

Is this legit?

https://i.imgur.com/e9aQxPh.png (I spoke with them on skype)

Their invoice bank account starts with 152...

This is in the email (among other things):

"Bank info for payment please check from attached file. (Payment comments please write your name ). Quotation only valid for 2 days since we send this email.
 
When you made the payment, please must provide the payment voucher and the passport of the Remitter, If paid from company account, please provide the copy of its business license, for identifying your payment. All files will be deleted as soon as we send out your parcel."


Thanks

You mean the part where the email came from "Emkei's Fake Mailer" at emkei.cz? Roll Eyes

https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:W7oenYRQ0TwJ:https://emkei.cz/

Google cached link because the website seems to be down at the moment... https://emkei.cz


Check the email headers:


OP totally got scammed, but not by Baikal... sorry for your loss.

he has perhaps right! he asked baikal for miners: they told him; they hasn baikal miner in stock, but they have ANTMINER D3 they don't use (from the off. Mailadress [email protected])
and if he want to buy them!

so if you get mail from [email protected] - you thinks its correct!

look the evidences!
