Topic: ethminer.io scam? - page 2. (Read 15882 times)

A newbie with one post and says that he trust ethminer.io? Come on, are you still not learning from the past incidents and experience of the cloud miners here? No cloud mining is so far legit and even those running for years has a chance to scam their investors and don't invest there or if you want to invest make sure that you will not cry when these scammers will runaway. Stay away from bitcoin/eth cloud mining.

UPDATE: YES, I THINK IT IS SCAM.
I risked 1 ETH and bought a subscription with earning rate 0.2 ETH/day.
But there is limitations to with draw. You have 0.3 ETH instant withdraw limit. After that you must wait 10+ day to complete withdraw. Or you have to buy upper package to increase instant withdraw limit.
I think if you buy upper package new limit won't be enough to withdraw your investment. So you will need to upgrade again. The highest package has no limitations for instant withdraw. But It can cancel your mining when you  bought it. So don't invest to this site.



I found this site today and I jumped like a fish. I bought version 1.2 with 1 ETH. It promises 0.00014 ETH/min (0.2 ETH per day). After a while I wondered about is it real or scam. And found this forum. When I read comments that says it is scam I frightened and decided to withdraw money for test. I had 0.03.... eth. I deposited my bitfinex wallet with it. Check the attached screenshots.

If you calculate how many times needed for 0.03 eth: 0.03 / 0.00014 = 214 minutes = 3.5 hours.

I also attached the image that shows when I bought version 1.2. because of time zone it shows 3 hours earlier.

That is not a suggestion to invest this site but I wanted to show you that it is working for now. I hope will continue.

And I think that the counter on the main page is working by timer. It not shows exact value but approximately. I don't know why, some times it shows old value on page refresh. But after a while if I refresh the page It rises to real value.

168 MH/s mining device with price 2252 USD is mining 0.03735 ETH per day. I don't know how does this website give me 0.2 ETH per day for an account bought with 1 ETH. My first approach is to have my 1 ETH back.

No thanks, I will not trust this comment.

Do you have any payment proof ? If yes then what version are you using? Did you invest in the site?

I have trust in ETHMINER.io.
I have received all money who they mined for me.

all cloud mining only wait to scam, because majority only ponzi scheme
only few cloud mining service maybe real mining, because iam never see in location about hardware only see with picture or video if cloud mining service is real mining

There are still people been caught for these scheme and take a look on ethtrade they caught so many new people around and make them believe that they would last for so long, Feel sorry to those newbie people who believes that they can earn huge by investing at that sites since they will surely cry out loud once it turns scam in quick blink.

It seems the owner of that site is the same person who owns BTCprominer.life, Litecoin-miner.io, Startminer.io, and Bitminer.io. All these sites are scams and they all have similarities in their features, such as where you only need to enter your address and you can start mining coins. If I'm not mistaken, its owner is named Giacomo Bugini. The same guy who promotes the scam sites' ADVGeneration and BitcoinBay here before. This is his username in this forum.

You just don't need anyone to educate you that majority cloud mining is scam. I even thought this is common with bitcoin and not others but with this, I cannot just but conclude that its the same across board. Since you know how this being pulled off, I will suggest you try withdraw the little you have if possible before the next you will see is the deactivation of withdraw function or even the withdrawal amount not landing in your account forever.

You know if it's good to be true it is probably a scam
It's better for you to avoid site like this,even if you sure it's legit,just check on the forum and ask anyone opinion
With the price of bitcoin now,there's many site like this who try to scam people out of their money

Exactly there no proof of any legitimate sources thaf those sites were really into sincere with the so called eth miner sites. Most of the forum talks behind it were not that amazing stories and feedbacks, maybe some were just excited with the platform; but if you look at and read what's going on and other people seems not into good impressions of what had happened to their so called mining investments.

What good is that? You need 10k days to get $4.. That could even be real..
That's actually good $0.4 per day.

All these free mining sites are scam as those use people to attract traffic at their site and never pay any penny to free users.

I know this is already a scam since most of the cloud mining are scam. Ethminer's free version earning rate is 0.0000025 eth/min and 0.0035 eth/day. Since we can leave cloud mine sites, we assume it earns while we're away. But I've notice that it is not earning when I didn't check my balance. I've registered since last two weeks and I assume my balance is already 0.049 eth but when I checked it disappointed me. I only get 0.0035+ eth, my prediction is correct. It is a scam. It only works every time you will check your balance. It will mine for only 24 hours that's why I only earn 0.0035+ eth. I open this thread to inform you that stay out of this site. Ignore the people you sends referral link that sends you to this site. It is just waste of time.
