Topic: Miner Warehouse [SCAM]?? (Read 1413 times)
I tried to get them to allow me to pick up 4 TH worth of miners and they wouldnt let me because theyre an "online retailer"..LOL..I told them to screw off.
So everyone thinks scam.
They use Coindesk plugin check out - when I asked how reputable are they - they said we have to be verified by Coindesk to use that service.
I was interested in the Cointerra machine - so I wrote to Cointerra about them to see what they would say...
Still waiting to hear back.

Don't bother. Clear scam is clear scam.
Just order a few Ants:

they're only $700 each and arrive in a couple days.

looks terrible!
You should have noted the ' intro ' miner the AntMiner and it's price....
"
Bitmain AntMiner U1 USB 1.6GH Miner
$29.00
Out of stock
"
Less than half price ( even compared to some eBay start bids before shipping costs ), cropped photo streached to fit... Scam looking site, the rest of the products ( that are actually available from the originators ) are either half price or 2X....
Smells of Scam to me....

I've never heard of them. Let's check out a couple of their products...
Bitmine Coincraft Desk 1TH Miners
They claim to be selling Bitmine Coincraft Desk 1TH Miners. But these have only barely started shipping, see Bitmine list of orders - December 2013 delivery (batch 1). I doubt they have a unit.
Miner Warehouse won't have Bitmine units before everyone else, Bitmine are clear about who their partners are, and Miner Warehouse are not one of them: see Bitmine Authorized Distributors.
From Bitmine:
Out of those options, I'd say scam.
Miner Warehouse 2TH Bitcoin Miner
Their "Miner Warehouse 2TH Bitcoin Miner" has 5 images, 3 of which are lifted from Cointerra's early renders of their Terraminer IV unit (found here). The other 2 images are from a Black 4U Steel Rackmount Server Case (found here from StarTech.com)
This is a typical scam, creating a fake product using images stolen from legit websites. It is slightly bizarre how they have mixed images from different products together, but some scammers aren't great with attention to detail. Notice how they are offering an actual product (which they don't have): Bitmine Desk 1TH for $4,799, and their fake product (which doesn't exist): Miner Warehouse 2TH Bitcoin Miner for $5,199? Why would anyone buy 1TH for $4,799 when for just $400 more you could get 2TH? Wow, sounds too good to be true!
Conclusion: confirmed scam.
Image Search Tip
I found that StarTech image using Google Image Search. Just paste the URL of the image and it searches the web for it! (I recognised the Terraminer IV image immediately just by looking at it).

Also: please put [SCAM] at the start of the title of this thread. You'll be doing the community a favour!

We received several reports about unauthorized individuals or companies claiming to be selling CoinCraft-based products, please pay extreme attention when purchasing from an unauthorized distributor because most probably they’re a scam or a reseller of lower-grade, non-working or counterfeit ASICs.
Out of those options, I'd say scam.
