Topic: Bitcoin BlackFriday SCAMS: buygyft.com and cryptonews.us (Read 521 times)

Thanks for informing.I remember a thread was created last year to beware users of potential scam sites to avoid on blackfriday but I can not searched it.I hope similar thread is made again this year too or this thread is made into that one

no question, my own stupidity - I think it was the supporting fake news site that sold it -

I've bought gift cards from gyft with bitcoin so the buygyft.com seemed right...

after waiting for 4 confirms - I did google it - nothing really...

someone needs to develop a registry site for these shitbags.

anyone in Chicago or Panama want to pay a visit to these fucks?

I was warning last month about these black Friday bitcoin sites, they are around every year trying to steal bitcoin.  sorry to hear you lost out, but thanks for warning others. 

What may seem obvious is usually how so many get roped in,its really basic scams that are the most successful.
Sucks these scammers never miss a beat and take advantage of the crazy holiday. Think google can do a hell of a lot better in looking at these sites that copy similar site names.

Someone imitated our website, our articles and scammed a lot of people with fake gift cards discounts.
We're in no way connected with cryptonews.us.

Buygyft.com is NOT gyft.com - rather a SCAM run by fucking dirtbags

cryptonews.us which promoted the scam is another useless scam bitcoin news site promoting the scam gyft cards --  

Sadly, I learned the hard way...
