Hi all

I have an interesting site to share, my company developed a platform for crypto scam victims where they can report crypto fraud for free. More information is on my profile, I don't want to spam.

Sorry for the delay I've been away for a few days - feel free to email me ([email protected]) the crypto security companies are more likely to assist if the amount taken if of significant amount

No doubt the scammer is still watching these forums (he posted a picture of his fake delivery) I'm keeping an eye on any other websites that might pop up, or the original one and will take them offline if need be

Glad you avoided this one Mick.

I've been delving into the bitcoin wallet they're using, and it looks like $147k has been received through multiple wallets so far.

A crypto security agency has been assigned to investigate, and hopefully freeze the scammers funds - will update




Hi Everyone,

Sooo Nearly had me,  I was so close to buying 3 x A10 Pro's...
Same I asked a question on eBay and he posted the bitcointalk forum url that is a hidden domain name.

SCAM --- https://bitcointalk.org-indexphp-topic-14358523.online --- SCAM

Very clever indeed.  im just glad you all posted this on here or I may have got done. 
I searched google for "SCAM SITE bitminer.asia" and this thread came up (THANK YOU)!

PS nice to meet you all.

Mick



Hi Joe was scammed a lot from these, what's the chances of getting funds back? Could you private message me re. the investigation, 2 minds are better than 1 etc. I've just tried messaging you but get the error you aren't accepting messages from newbies!

Many thanks

what do you think about the btc coinfirm claim page https://www.coinfirm.com/products/reclaim-crypto/?__ca__chat=FyVg6QUkQHwL


Quote
For avoidance of doubt, the prioritize option to make the claim the Priority Claim does not guarantee that Participant’s assets will be successfully reclaimed. Coinfirm conducts the Initial Feasibility Assessment of every submitted claim in accordance with this Terms. If result of the assessment indicates that chosen Detailed Reclaim Request is Feasible Claim or potential criminal offence, Coinfirm and Partner may propose to Participant entering into the Commercial Agreement, as specified in the Section X hereinbelow.

Feasibility is one thing, reality is another.
They specialize in tracking transactions nothing else, even if by pure luck scammers have sent the coins to an exchange and used their real name there it's still a matter of courts to get your money back, only a court order will allow an executor to lock their accounts and see their property and resell them and liquidate the assets for compensation.

You can drop them an inquiryt but no money in advance!
Besides, I doubt they will take any case that is under 50-100k, it's not profitable enough for such an investigation.

Looks like they've taken the website and email offline now. Either they've made enough money and given up, or they got fed up of the IP stressor attacks

The domain location came out of Dallas in Texas, so probably not Asian at all - still tracking the bitcoin movements

I made an account today to comment on this. For about a month I've been trying to buy a decent miner and have ran into 20+ scam sites/vendors. I thought bitminers.asia was legit. Wrong.
Made contact with the same seller on ebay for a miner. Was given the fake thread link and a discount code. I believed the thread, but had some concerns with grammar. Went to the site anyways, looked legit and it accepted the code. Sent an email with some questions. Asked them both straight out if they were scammers and both got super defensive. This is most convincing miner scam I've ran across.

Can anyone recommend a vendor or a trusted seller here in the forums?

ebooy,, I can't see any S9's on there? only a pack of 10 of them

Stompix - thank you for your response. I also think this is probably a scam and the images posted are probably from the scammers themselves. Is anyone sure how they create the fake landing page?

An old forum discussion here from users saying they did receive goods (some with a lot of user posts too) https://bitcointalk.org-indexphp-topic-14358523.online/index.html

Read my post above!!

That link is a fake page, that topic never existed on bitcoin talk.
I am one of the users mentioned there and on the fake page seems like I've purchased and received gear from them when actually

I never ordered anything from them, I don't endorse that website and I think is one big scam!


You guys make me believe that is a scam , but i'm very happy that i received it.

So it's even worse, they don't even have real miner boxes to write make their logo and look legit, they grab a few photos and photoshop them.
Another red flag as if another one was needed!

Antminer S9 with 30% off code, wanted to test if it was a scam or not. Getting tracking updates but I am certain it is a scam, tracking number doesn't come up with DHL, only shows up on their site. The photo is clearly altered, the cardboard around the logo is blurry.

What did you order from them?

I'm in email communication with the company - they use [email protected]

I want to buy more machines, and they've invited me to visit their shop in Taiwan to discuss further, so hopefully they're legit


It would have been more convincing without the bad photoshop job.

Do you have any other pictures from your delivery? it looks to me that the Bitminers.asia has been photoshopped onto those boxes - and the courier looks like UPS although they state they use DHL??
