do people really throw money at these random companies ?
We just need to register a domain and put some pc cases up and we can make millions ?
I hope it is not that simple lol

Thank you for informing us. I've checked this website and is indeed a scam. A nice tool to help us to avoid possible issues when going to buy from an unknown/phishing website is http://www.whois.com/whois. Compare http://www.whois.com/whois/bitmaintech.com (legitimate) with http://www.whois.com/whois/bitmaintechs.com (*SCAM*) -

http://www.whois.com/whois/bitmaintech.com - LEGITIMATE:


Registrant Email: bitmaintech.com@domainsbyproxy.com
Admin Email: bitmaintech.com@domainsbyproxy.com
Tech Email: bitmaintech.com@domainsbyproxy.com


http://www.whois.com/whois/bitmaintechs.com - SCAM:


Registrant Email: [email protected] ("bitWHAT"?! And a hardware company using a free email service... So true!).
Admin Email: [email protected]  (Again...).
Tech Email: [email protected] (...And again).

Also, if you are using Chromium/Google Chrome (Firefox shows the same too, I think), you will notice a warning message: "This page includes script from unauthenticated sources". One more example of how truthful this site is.

Ah, compare a tool called "Reverse Whois" too:

http://whois.domaintools.com/bitmaintech.com (LEGITIMATE)

http://whois.domaintools.com/bitmaintechs.com (SCAM)

(:

This is my first post, by the way. Cheers!

The creators of this website copied the original bitmaintech website and trying to steal some BTC's from people looking for mining hardware. They made good SEO, so that website is found
by search engines, and created/edited some wiki pages pointing to this url.

Just created this topic for forum members to know and for google to index bitmaintechs.com is a SCAM

original web is bitmaintech.com
