Updated Info for Infinitum / Infinitum Bitcoin

"Infinitum Coins or Infinitum Bitcoin is a scam located out of “Dubai” (The company is registered in the British Virgin Islands but supposedly located in Dubai). I purchased the 4 coin set from Infinitum. Upon arrival I noticed all of the coin capsules being quite scratched up and even some were chipped in certain spots. A few weeks later I decided to replace the capsules and upon doing so I noticed the coins were horribly minted, and some had toning already. Many have scratches, milk spots and simply horrible mint marks, much of the letters on the coin are blurry and corroded.  I tried to return the coin set. At first I had to battle with infinitum over the return. They told me that I was responsible for shipping costs. This was of course unacceptable to me being that they sent me greatly damaged coins. I eventually was able to make a deal with them to get a discount on shipping. However when I shipped the coins to Dubai, I kept hearing from Infinitum that the coins “never arrived” and that “we went to the local post office and the box was not there”. Infinitum simply ignored the package so that they did not have to honor a return.
Upon all of this I decided to open a SCAM ACCUSATION thread. Others chimed in saying they had received horribly minted coins, as well as many had paid for the coins to be “funded” in which Infinitum NEVER did. They all sent a bevy of emails to Infinitum inquiring about getting their coins loaded and they were always met with broken promises. I decided to check out their pages on social media (facebook for example) and found other people outside of bitcointalk.org had experienced the same issues. Infinitum chimed in “apologizing” saying they would make things right, but of course never did.
Infinitum is a clear scam. They seem to no longer be active with their ICO/digital coin sale as well as their physical coins..However they do seem to still be for sale. This is a classic scam. Being registered in the British Virgin Islands allows them to safely harbor their business. Being located in “Dubai” allows them to hide in a part of the world that would likely make it impossible for them to be caught. If you have physical coins, I would suggest just taking the loss instead of trying to return them..as there is a chance you’ll never see them again, and of course never received a refund.

Add Sol Noctis Bull coins to the list. Reference thread: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/warning-sol-noctis-bull-coin-keys-compromised-scam-5231305.

I peeled my Bull and private key is an unknown format, and another Bull coin was swept after it was loaded with extra BTC and hologram is intact. Awaiting confirmation from other members here if this is ALL Sol Noctis coins or if somehow my purchases covering the last 3 years were all fakes.

Please post if you have a spare one to peel.

Read please,my post from last year

  Have not heard of any bad experiences with these stamps. Kindly elaborate

Why QRG stamps aren't in the list?

Edit: if anyone has positive experience with them, was nice to hear the story, please

Thanks MJ...will add this to the following thread as well.  BEWARE of FAKE CASASCIUS COINS

Done

Yes i already seen that. But mi10 have copied the same contract address as QRG and it is visible in the bottom of their landing page.
Plus fake team members. Probably.

QRG redemption isn't working. All collectible makers who do not keep their service for redemption running until the last one - scam makers. Private key is always a better option or mnemonic

i am doing a research on Gibraltar QRG stamps as i highly believe they are scamming people in some way.
first of all they have created stamps with digital value and didnt protected that digital value at all -no hologram, no scratch field or something.
QR codes and serial numbers are exposed for public view and "redeemable" to anyone.
we did many research about QRG and finally we decided to redeem one block of stamps.
and guess what.. scannig QR code leads you to a website that is red flagged by a browser not being safe (royal post???). sound like a bullshit. then.. another field i found interesting:
"4) Submit and confirm that your serial number has not been used previously. If still valid, 200 QRG Tokens will be sent to your Wallet.  (Please allow 24 hours for this transaction to complete.)"
how can i confirm it hasnt been redeemed by someone else if as i told eralier they arent protected in any way??
well..
after trying to submit info for 200 QRG - website redirected to : ooops page not found. tried several times, same.
QRG redemption don't work anymore.

mi10 crypto stamps is a 100% copy paste from QRG, they even copied the same contract address as QRG

whats your thoughts?

WOW I didn't even know these existed

Oh man, I want one of those! I've only got testing fluids. Does that scan the interior as well?

Bloody hell! I'm betting they're only silver plated too!

I logged into ebay and reported the item as counterfeit (As I designed both coins, I claimed copyright infringement)

Id suggest to everyone following this thread to report it too

EDIT: I don't know if I should feel honoured or offended that someone counterfeited my coins )

I have seen all sorts of fakes made for coins in this "sector". I have also seen the coin MJ is speaking about too, like 1-2 years ago I came across them.

Who on Earth would make fakes of these?! A video would be cool to see, and can you upload some close shots?

Can confirm, the pictures are just mixed up
THEY ARE GENUINE.

How do I know? I Designed both coins

What up OGNasty?! It's been a while

as with all the other people who bought from gravitae i bought 7 coins from him
2 - 0.05
5 - 0.01

everything was fine except one of the 0.05 coins didnt have a key under the sticker at all...
