Topic: Cloudthink Basic Check (Read 1239 times)

Good God, I have been away for a long while, there is now a whole sub-forum for scammers. 

My only excuse is that I did say I hadn't been around much.

Cool man !!
i see this as another thread that has just pop out from no where , i request the Mods to filter Spam .
Can you prove that you have received the Hardware , i am pretty much keen to see the hardware as it is unique of its kind.


One of the thread that has recently Pop out in Hardware section:  https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12051601

Oh come on....surely this product exists...one can easily tell that the enclosure has to be around 4 feet tall in order to house all the components claimed in this box  
Lets not forget that there is zero ventilation ducts in this case and there is still room to house 3 power supplies, 4 x 120mm fans and 20 chips which dissipate 4800w heat that will roast anything in the vicinity...amazing technology....lmfao
So they claim that 20 chips use 3 power supplies...hmmm how does the math on that one work.. 2 boards with 10 chips each sharing 1.5 power supplies?  
Anyone falling for that scam is a complete retard ...sure lets buy this superbox which is overpriced when we can buy 10 S5 for 2000 and 4 of the bitmain power supplies totaling 2400 for a better efficiency and $100 more...suuuuuure they don't need the hardware  

cloudedthinking bitcoin impersonator = 8TH .6W/GH 2300$
10x s5 powered [email protected]/GH 2400$

It goes to show that greed can make people do such stupid things....hopefully nobody ordered anything from this site

I cant believe that so many people fell for this SCAM and actually provided shipping addresses  

That might have something to do with the fact that I put the wrong link in 
Try this one

One of our members has even been to the 'Global HQ' address and been told "no-one here by that name".
Now CloudThink are saying come here and collect a super miner.
It's a really bizarre situation.

Nope, just checked and the info I provided wasn't in that thread.

Smell check:  FAIL

They also delete all my post that mention all the scam accusation under this trust.

Are to believe people got owned so bad for getting free vaporware. There is so much red flags ....

Just posting here what got deleted out of the self moderated topic.

You can create a new topic if you are unsatisfied with this one. If the topic-starter is scamming, post about it in Scam Accusations.


Amen brotha! Disappointing to say the least but it shows the community is hungry for new hardware. They only need appear legitimate for a short time to make their scam effort pay off.

Let me wager a guess here that these 'selected members' have been requested by the OP to do just this. They should be embarassed for helping enable this ruse.

I left them a rare negative feedback. Caveat Emptor.

They don't pass the smell test.

Thanks for joining that GB!

Tax break which they might not get a way with for long moving not forming my bad  the main head base to the the UK were in the UK they get a tax break and pay less taxes some kind of UK benefit then they would in the US etc  but still holding onto the US part for US help\benefits ( in other words legal stealing ) but i read some place that may become illegal soon no help etc , considered tax evasion, if one senator gets the law past , which I thought was.. this was all thought up around this time or later last year because of the health care law and shut down we had .

SO i would be be very careful with this if that's what there up to there playing it both ways, wonder were they will run, if this is what there up to and plan to ripe off a lot big time once they get there miners out there . but the GOV is nothing to play with but well see.

Unless they've specifically stated that, you wouldn't actually know as there is no open register to search for registrations.

If you'd have taken 11 minutes not 10, you'd have found this thread, which has that info and much more about CloudThink

It's been a while since I have been around, I am still running Spoondoolies SP30's from the buy that Roadstress setup a while ago. I drop in occasionally but this is the first hardware I thought I would have a look at in a long while but I like to have a quick check of what is going on.

Basic company check:
UK Registered Company registered 2015.03.26
Director: John Richard Colman
 135 135 W SANTA CLARA CA , SAN JOSE
 95078, CALIFORNIA
 ENGLAND
  Interesting since when has California been a part of England

Phone numbers on website:
+1-855-261-2270
+1-310-846-9028
  These are in US not the UK

But on the website it says 'Our company's main headquarters is located in Manchester'
The website also says Copyright 2013 - 2015 but as the company had not been incorporated at that point the copyright would not stand up in court.
The website also goes on about Trademarks but nothing on the site has been trademarked, nor can I find any registered TradeMark for CloudThink
The website states that all disputes, etc will be submitted to the United Kingdom Court in London, there is no such thing, the terms have obviously not be created by a solicitor. 

Address: 14 Lloyd Street, Manchester, England, M2 5ND
A rather grand city centre 5 story building that hosts at least 24 companies, at least there are on the first register I came to http://www.endole.co.uk/explorer/postcode/m2-5nd
Of the 24 listed, 21 are in liquidation 
But wait there are loads more limited companies at that address, all registered offices and at least two accounting firms that are in that building.
14 Lloyd Street sounds grand but it is a set of serviced offices and as CloudThink does not have a UK landline I suspect they are just another registered office address c/o the UK accountants that set up the company

VAT Registration
500 x $2300 = approximately £737K
So they know that they will earn greater than the VAT threshold in a year and have not registered for VAT



Given a 10min basic company check I would think very, very hard before handing any money over.
