bob spiegel from colocation recommended them.

DO NOT do business with him or cryptocouriermart ... you can also find someone on quora recommending them. he is the scammer himself
pretending to be located in las vegas. he even has a vegas phone #

i sent miners to thesolarfarms.com in Kentucky on Bob's recommenadation.
it took them months to respond to emails ... they never got the miners hosted and just sent me pictures that the machines are damaged.
So you eventually tried out thesolarfarms even against our recommendations?

Could you please share in detail how everything unfolded and how they ended up ripping you off? The screenshots of the messages would really be helpful.
I recommend you open up a scam accusation so that anybody who searches them up gets to know. Follow this guide - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/scam-report-format-use-it-to-make-scam-reports-properly-260073

This is what is currently being displayed on their home page  Grin



It looks like they abandoned the domain, or they created some other new websites that pretend to sell mining hardware to scam more unsuspecting people

Hi guys,

I’ve been scammed by ProMinerz since about mid 2020 and filed a claim with the Swiss police at a Zurich police station as well as the prosecutor’s office and they’ve yet to take any action into this fraudster. I have more information regarding this scammer and I have reason to believe that they’re more than 1 person and operate as independent parties.

If you have been scammed by ProMinerz and whether you have or haven’t filed a claim please contact me and we could join forces against this fraudster. Hopefully the Swiss prosecutor’s will look at this post and start taking action against this Trusted Swiss Vendor before he claims more victims.

got a quote for hosting antminers in Canada from 2 companies :

solar farm and
 asichostingcanada

any idea if they are legit ?

Thanks ...
I doubt if they are legit. Tired looking up asichostingcanada and no one talks anything about them despite the site being around since 2018. If it was a good and functional service, at least we would see a couple of reviews

About solar farm, I am not sure what you meant.

Prominerz didn't send me the rig- but kept my $$$ from my July 2021 order 8558.
Prominerz acknowledged my order for an x11 rig, STU U6.
They received my payment and confirmed they got the funds. They never delivered my rig and never responded to several emails. SCAM!
People still use this service despite all the complaints and warnings?
What made you trust them with your money?

I suggest you open a decent scam accusation in the scam accusations board, which could be helpful o those who carry out due diligence in the future

I noticed the scammers Prominerz dot com website is back up and running. they were down for a few days. Probably changing hosts as I let their old host know they were scamming. I offered these guys to take down the website I built, Prominerzscam dot com if they actually deliver what I ordered. Still, not a single response from them in months. They literally don't care that there is a website, that will soon compete with their domain name because I will make sure of it, calling them out. You figure they would just want it (and me) to go away. I believe they are on their last hurrah of scamming under that website name. They are probably already working on the next scam. I'm guessing they are reading this thread. They don't have the stones to come defend themselves because they ARE some scammers. They would have proven me wrong and made it known if they were not. I will figure out who is behind it. They always leave a trail. I been following the crumbs.....

Sorry for the loss. I have been seeing so many complaints about them, and I am confident that they are scam or exit scammers

I don't know if the asicminervalue site is credible enough or not, but I don't even see prominerz listed there (seems to be delisted at the moment).
I don't trust that site at all. They have a habit of listing scam mining gear reseller sites. Like right now, there are so many people complaining about CoinMining Central, and they have it listed there as tested.

Sesterce Mining is confirmed scam yet it's also still listed there.

Thanks for the kind words. I took your advice and removed the ticket number from here. AsicMinerValue just removed them because I took a screenshot of their page with Prominerz still on there earlier in the day. They must have finally looked into it. I contacted them weeks ago with no reply. Sucks it took them so long but at least the scammers aren't on there at this moment. Good catch. Thank you. Hope I helped someone avoid these guys.

Sorry for the loss that befell you.
This is not their official support board and Prominerz.com account has been inactive for a long time, so I don't think they will answer you here. Also, be careful when sharing sensitive data anywhere including ticket numbers, it can trigger other people (impersonators) to claim your losses or pretend to be support to blackmail you further.

You have scammed me $2900. Your support ticket system locked me out after sending in a ticket. Your [email protected] is a garbage email that gets no responses. I had to find and email on this board and reddit, Lara | Prominerz <[email protected]> to get a reply that told me absolutely nothing about my order or its status!!! I have tried for months to get an answer on my order for my A6+ miner. You have done nothing but ignore me. I started a website, prominerzscam.com that I will continue to build on and include others who have gotten scammed. I would hope you will make this right and send me what i paid for or refund me. Then i will remove the website and any negative post and review i have left. But i doubt you will even answer me!!!! I am also trying to force AsicMinerValue to acknowledge how horrible you treat people and do not deliver nor answer them. Your reviews on TrustPilot, reddit, etc are just stacking up and all negative. If you care about your business, repuatation and customers, you will make this right immediately!!!
You know how to reach me as I've emailed and sent many tickets that you ignore! Let's fix this mess and I will have no problem telling the whole world you did the right thing. But at this point, my guess is you will not even reply nor care to make it right. I also contacted Coinbase since i used them to pay you. I have the case information on that if you are interested. I will not stop until you either deliver, refund or are shut down. My intention is not to hurt your business. It's to simply get what i paid for!!!!

I ordered from you guys TWO MONTHS ago and can get no help or answers as to where my miner is!!!! I see you on here defending your company's practices but yet you answer no emails! I literally had to contact Coinbase since i used them to pay you. I've only gotten a BS reply from someone calling themselves "Lara" and now no one answers my emails and low and behold, your ticket system does not work and allow me to login!!!! Can I get some help? I am trying to avoid posting negative reviews but i will post about this horrible experience everywhere I can if you do not deliver what i ordered! I cannot believe you operate a company in this manner!!!! Order number: 8478. Please reach out to me so we can settle this. I am so pissed off i am literally ready to make a website explaining my whole experience so it will pop up in search engines! I'm sure Coinbase will be reaching out to you soon also! Make this right!

Glad I saw this post. Was going to use this company for an order of a few miners. Ill stay clear now because of how "the company (not the accuser)" responded herein. Ill keep your $ because you threatened to turn us in when we didnt refund the $ we already collected. wow! Thanks prominerz for the response. It lets us be informed how "you (by posting this response)" operate.

my opinion (although i never bought this bitcoin mining equipment) would be that each person who wanted to buy this equipment before sending money would check if that company at any physical address or phone number or at least who is the owner of the company and location of the business owner, people need to have guarantees that if something doesn't go well they can go to place X or Z to complain (in the case it would be at the location of the company) or they can go to complain with the company owner as we all know most online businesses don't have physical offices, but they do have owners, so look for who the owners are

Just like Prominez, there are so many scam mining gear resellers out there. Do not be tricked into sending them money. They are out right scammers. Only trust official mining gear manufacturers/sellers. If there is no item in stock. The wait until it's back in stock.

A friend of mine ordered from you and is waiting for his refund on a grin miner. I almost fell for the scam buy wanted to wait to see how his transaction turned out. I read all the email correspondence between yall and referred him to my lawyer. I wont pass judgement till I hear back from him.
Edit just talked to him. Hes filing a police report against prominerz Monday. So much for me sending them my money. Will keep the board posted on the outcome.

Someone already made a scam accusation against prominerz including the other fake miner shops. There are many people fell for this fake sellers and scammed big amount.

Let me ask if how your friend found the prominerz?

Next time tell your friends to buy directly to manufacturers to avoid scam if you use a 3rd party like prominerz you will always end up scammed.

Read this:

List of manufacturers below where you can buy miners from the real distributor or official websites.

- https://shop.bitmain.com/
- https://canaan.io/
- http://www.innosilicon.com/
- http://www.microbt.com/
- https://bitfury.com/
- http://miner.ebang.com.cn/

Don't deal again with 3rd party unless if they are verified seller or trusted seller/distributor from the manufacturer.

Other fake sellers can be found here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/fake-sellers-who-5174460

I believe he found them on Asicminer Not sure though.

Update:
Talked to him last night. He said he is holding out on the police report because he heard back from a guy named Reto at Prominerz, and that they had cancelled his order and were waiting for Innosilicon to send confirmation and the refund. He said he had heard that from them before, but that was before Innosilicon made the announcement about refunds.
I will keep the board posted.


Quick statement from ourselves before everybody starts fantasizing and hallucinating..

1st of all, WE ARE FUCKING LEGIT, like it or not, we have sold hundreds of miners, have hundreds of happy customers and its what we do, selling miners and hosting them, big or small clients.

OF COURSE ITS ALWAYS CHEAPER TO BUY FROM FACTORIES, ITS OBVIOUS!

2nd Things like in any business can go wrong, and when we are the ones who mistake, we take the shit and handle it, in the case of famous James, things are a bit more complicated though, they got complicated cause lets face something some of you might don't consider when writing here in the beautiful anonymity of the internet.

Mister James bought from us a G32-1800 in Spring, and asked us what would we do if the miner would have a delay or wouldn't come out. We told him that in this case there will be a refund, which is normal. YOU DON'T GET A MINER, YOU GET A REFUND for god sake, nobody wants to start a new life in a third world country with 10k. Unfortunately that miner had a major delay (Miners and Crypto People know that at the moment all deliveries are late from practically all batches) Innosilicon simply moved the release from August to October and then to January.

To make a comment on innosilicon, they are stupid, for real, they dont give a shit about resellers nor small customers, they absolutely care 0. So we placed the request of a cancellation for James already pretty early and when Innosilicon made their statement in October that they will give refunds cause of the delay, we again applied to get back the money for that order.

Now here is the thing and only smart people and people that are familiar with the market will understand. Wanna-be crypto's wont. So sorry if it ends here for your guys.

Resellers like us are fucking suffering these days. Its a real fuck up. We do this biz since 4 years and thsi year was simply catastrophic. Why? Cause Factories are announcing Miners they can't deliver, its something new, new in the way we experiencing it now. Delays are common, it can happen and most of us know it. But announcing miners collecting money and then schedule delivery as they want in this form, is completely new and THE REAL FRAUD here. Ask any other shop from asicminervalue.com and they will confirm. There are millions of dollars as we speak right now on Chinese Accounts simply not being refunded and being used to develop machines that have been announced but never really were on the market. See StrongU U6, see the delays of Whatsminer and see the delays even from Bitmain.

So this is what we know now, we did not know it when James purchased the miner that it would end up in a complete disaster, this is a complete new scenario in the market that big. The real disaster though is the way James acts even though its partially understandable. He is a customer, he feels we are responsible, we want to refund him but need to wait for the refund of innosilicon. Thats how it works and normally, till mid this year, all factories acted in a normal timeframe, life as a reseller was much easier.

Now here comes the problem. When you buy a miner from shops like us or others to be found on asicminervalue.com and you buy a batch, we do not have nor the miner, nor the direct purchase from the factory. Cause if the miner would be available from the factory, you would buy it there no? Right, they are not available anymore so chinese distributors resell their purchases (orders) to resellers like us. Has always been like that, has always worked (not only since last week) and that's the reason there is no order placed by PROMINERZ at innosilicon. So we need to tell those distributors to cancel James's order. We did that. Now we are waiting for the money from innosilicon to arrive.

Now since last week the situation changed drastically.

I understand when things aren't working out, people get desperate. But taking even this in consideration and writing reviews, accusing us of scam and or working with banks and being criminals, that is a bit too much. If something is wrong, you can always check the legal possibilities, act and put pressure by using the legal possibilities in your country or covered by international trade laws. Writing reviews publicly where you name us Scammers and threaten us with FBI, Police and probably in a next step with a personal visit of Donald Trump, we have to take action too. Every seller of whatever will understand what we are talking about. Writing reviews on that level, costs us money too, destroys our until now clean reputation and has consequences. To find a way out of this is only possible with lawyers cause paying back the client, having his uncontrollable written wrath online, is a no go, and that's where we stand now.

Sellers have rights too and it's not about taking advantage or keeping money, this matter got into a legal case by force and thank god we have laws in Switzerland and we don't live in a country where you go to jail just cause someone accuses you of something.

On a miner like this we earn about 4-7% and that's it. We don't become millionaires just cause we sell costly equipment, we are a normal mid size business that tries to make it easier for customers to buy miners from China. Cause buying from alibaba and other platforms is a risk, contains a risk still and that's why we exist.

We accept criticism and even handle accusations. If they are true and don't hurt us that way.

We are always reachable through our channels and gladly answer questions.

guys, they're a big SCAM and very well orchestrated!!!

I'm logging here all the details from my experience with these fraudsters, in order to inform every potential victim:
25/12/2020: I live in Greece and ordered a Bitmain Antminer T17e 2nd hand from from their EU Warehouse (Total:   €778)
06/01/2021: they provided a DHL tracking number of a parcel leaving China (they replied that this delay was due to the holidays break)
20/01/2021: after having sent couple of mails and no reply, they provided a new tracking number of a parcel leaving China to Lithuania (EU warehouse) and I would have to wait for few more days because of the pandemic
11/02/2021: the parcel was never delivered to EU warehouse, because there was none to receive it, so they return it back to China!!!
04/03/2021: the parcel sent from China and arrived to Greece
20/03/2021: the parcel delivered to me but the miner was totally broken and unusable, only GUI works
I received a non working miner full of dust and debris, the hashboards where severely damaged, some chips where totally burned and some other disoldered
14/04/2021: I keep sending mails for replacement but I do not get any reply of-course

the advertised communication channels are not working of-course
Telegram: @prominerzbot
Email [email protected]
only [email protected] was replied to me few times when I announced to them that I follow the legal way, but it is over a month now

from their page,
"Worldwide Express Shipping & Swiss Quality Service"
"Swiss Quality Based in Zürich, you’ll enjoy 100% Swiss Quality Service"
"Excellent Support, We love direct and simple communication. Chat with us!"
"Used miners are exposed to a slightly different delivery time. Your miner will be shipped after 5-7 Days and therefore delivery will take place usually after 7-10 days."

everything is fake, keep away from them

I got the DHL tracking on monday. But the parcel was just picked up by DHL today and on the way to France already.
All seems OK now.
I will update again when I will receive it, hopefully monday.

Edit:
I received my order from prominerz yesterday afternoon, so the order+delivery process took a bit less than a month.
Not too bad because of Chrismas, hollydays etc.. And not too good because it could have been slightly faster.
You need to have patience and manage your stress when you order this kind of harware... But Prominerz is legit and gave a good support.
I baught 2 Innosilicon A10 6 Gb 500Mh/s refurbished, but the good surprise is that one of them is almost new (from december 2020).
Both machines are running now with a total of 900+ Mh/s
A small disapointment about both PSU'S that were supposed to be new, but they are refurbished, and one is really uggly looking.
After all, I am a happy customer. You can buy from them but need to have lot of patience.
Personnally, I would avoid preorders, because if the product don't comes out, it will be complicated and long process to be refunded.
If you guys have any question about my order/experience with prominerz or other, please feel free to contact me


I made a purchase from them and I underpayed b/c of the transaction fees. When I try to reach them on the same computer, Google tells me that it is a risky website and it won't let me open it. When I try it from another ip address, it opens with no issue. Does anyone have any way of contacting them? An recent email address or something? This is my first ASIC purchase. I would really s**k getting scammed on my first purchase.

Someone please help me 😞.

Hi I wish I had read some of these before I had placed an order with Prominerz.

Has anyone received a refund from these guys?  I had placed an order for an in-stock miner, but was told it was no longer in stock and I could opt for a refund.  I've requested the refund, but it's been dead silence since.  It's been about 10 days since I've last heard from them.  Their website seems to be a little funky lately, but I've tried emailing and using their online ticket system.  Not sure what else I can do at this point.
Sorry about the experience. Always make it a habit to first read different reviews and complaints about the service before ordering through them. It may seem hectic and time-wasting, but it sure would save you from such agony and bad experience.

There's nothing much you can do except wait and see if the support will help and sort you out.

I got the DHL tracking on monday. But the parcel was just picked up by DHL today and on the way to France already.
All seems OK now.
I will update again when I will receive it, hopefully monday.

Edit:
I received my order from prominerz yesterday afternoon, so the order+delivery process took a bit less than a month.
Not too bad because of Chrismas, hollydays etc.. And not too good because it could have been slightly faster.
You need to have patience and manage your stress when you order this kind of harware... But Prominerz is legit and gave a good support.
I baught 2 Innosilicon A10 6 Gb 500Mh/s refurbished, but the good surprise is that one of them is almost new (from december 2020).
Both machines are running now with a total of 900+ Mh/s
A small disapointment about both PSU'S that were supposed to be new, but they are refurbished, and one is really uggly looking.
After all, I am a happy customer. You can buy from them but need to have lot of patience.
Personnally, I would avoid preorders, because if the product don't comes out, it will be complicated and long process to be refunded.
If you guys have any question about my order/experience with prominerz or other, please feel free to contact me

I ordered 2 miners since 16th december.
Till now and since monday, they say: "your package is ready for pick-up by DHL"
I will keep you posted, but the delays are long for miners they have in stock... I hope all goes well

This is very suspicious because couriers are working as usual and the average pickup timing is 24 hours.
So if they got they would get package ready on the 18th, you would get the tracking number on that day or on the 19th. If you didn't get it it means they're lying and did not order a pickup at all.

Contact them tomorrow and say that if they are unable to deliver you'd like your money back.

It's pretty common for these hardware suppliers to sell products they don't have.

i wanted to order there too. is there any news?
Be careful dealing with them or if you feel you can't wait, then send them money you can afford to lose. Personally I wouldn't bother using their service. I would look for a much more trusted mining gear seller/reseller.

You got your order?

What other news do you want to know about prominerz? Just read through the thread and know what kind of service they are. Basing on what happen. I would not trust them with any money and would instead look for a much more trustworthy alternative

Real interested in hearing Prominerz side of the story on why the owner is calling his own site a scam. Anyway update. They paid half back to my friend, looks like they skip town with the rest. I told him not to trust these creeps. Sometimes lessons learned are pretty costly. People, you've been warned.

Side note. Innosilicon, that was some dirty ish you played using customer orders as a loan. At least you paid everyone back finally, but your business etiquette is just as bad as Prominerz.

Prominerz is a Ponzi scheme. Stay away.

No, we haven't done any "resolving" cause as you just simply ignored, we do not work with threats nor do we refund to people that are trying to destroy our business on long term. Your words count Mikey, the internet is seeing whatever you write. I am aware there are trade agreements but it does not change the fact that James and his friends, might involve you, declared us as scammers and that, unfortunately, is illegal at least where we come from, since it is hurting our business when publicly accused of without evidence especially when communication is still ongoing and its a commercial case for us, criminal for him. Same as I would comment somewhere that you are a sexual offender, not really being sure, but I just write it in a comment cause I think you are. Right? Well, that's how it works in business as well in Switzerland. You accusing, you better be sure about it. You cost us money, you pay for it, that simple.

I could be more calm but really am tired of ignorant people running towards our front door thinking they can just give us the fault for everything.

Bye

So let me get this right. He gave you money and you haven't returned his refund like you stated you would.
He called you a scam because you told him on numerous occasions you would return his money even asking for his bank account information and still not returning.
Not your claiming your'e the victim and that you won't return his money?
ROFLMAO
Good luck with that defense is all I can say.
The fact that you refused to give him his money but asked him for his bank account information on the premise that you would return it makes it criminal by itself. IN BOTH COUNTRIES.
I must say he's an idiot for even waiting this long to report you. It looked like a scam to me by the second set of emails I read.
Anyway good luck with this, now everyone sees how you work and can decide for themselves.

I made a purchase from Prominerz already, but when i try to access my account the website is blocking me and telling me that it recognizes me as a spam posting software.

I found the website using asicminervalue.com and always thought it was a trusted website. Hope for the best i guess.

Thank you for the quick answer.



Whats the update on this? Prominerz is legit been wondering why they do block you out.Have you reach out their support?

Edit: Just posted this one after op do give an update.OP,you are now on the waiting game.

Get a look at how these jokers did a customer. Their post speak for themselves. Took his money claimed they would refund him, now claiming they wont refund him because he called them a scam online and that he damaged their business lol. If it lies like a scam, talks like a scam, and won't refund your money like a scam, must be a scam.

Yeah Mikey, exactly, it's called defamation. And its illegal. He started this. You can go all the way down that rabbit hole and find excuses why to call us publicly a scam is ok from his or your point of view. Collecting a bunch of buddies so you all can jerk off on our public reputation is illegal. The same illegal as your fantasy stealing story. We are waiting for the big case to arrive, we all cant wait to see how it goes.

And Mike, you know, a business lives from not only bad things but also good things. We got plenty of happy customers and we still getting orders and ship out orders, day by day. James is just one guy with a couple of friends trying to hurt us cause he is desperate, which again, is UNDERSTANDABLE, its an unbearable situation for everyone who ordered either a G32 or a Obelisk Miner. Innosilicon by the way, and this is what we all know in the mining reseller community (you know the ones that are here quite a while and not since yesterday) is acting on only their behalf and yes, I call them a Scam because they are a Scam. I mean are you really that stupid? If they haven't refund us the order from James, let me think, then they are a Scam right? Wait maybe it's too complicated. I repeat, James bought a miner, the miner is delayed, James wants to cancel, we cancel, Innosilocn ignores us, we push, James pushes, we push again, and mid october finally, Innosilicon releases the first statement in months that they accept refund requests. So here we go, we requested the cancellation on the same day and havent got a fucking dime from them since then. So who s the Scam Mike? Can you tell or you already too stuck in your "prominerz is the evil of the world"-story?

Well I suppose you are reading other forums as well and do research and see that innosilicon hasn't refunded shit (maybe they did refund some russian big customers before getting into real troubles). So yeah, I asked James for patience, he reacted with accusations. At one point, well, we react too and emotions pop in. Obviously we are not holding back any money cause simply NO MONEY ARRIVED from Innosilicon. Having around 100 orders open with them how do you imagine a business handling that refund thing? Should we shit a million dollar to make everyone happy? No, we can't, we have to go and push for the refund and try our best, legal or non-legal to get that fucking money back. It's simple as that! As I mentioned before, we have proof we bought that miner. A bill, a transfer and thats called proof. Whatever is coming for us, whoever is asking where that money go, its not some hooker and a shady guy on the corner, its innosilcon or a innosilicon distributor.

Therefore well, whoever sees this simply sees the truth, we are not Apple, nore are we Amazon, not any million dollar company, we couple of guys that resell mining equipment, nothing else and we can't pay for the scammy chinese. Get it? Probably not.

Well it looks like I may have been wrong. Prominerz may not be a scam after all. Maybe.
My guy tells me Prominerz paid him back half of what he is owed.
half isn't all, and still doesn't justify how they responded to a paying customer who had received no product, or no money for months after he was told he would be refunded.

The correct response to a paying customer would have been. "I'm sorry sir but unfortunately we are only a drop shipper, and we do not have your money at this time. We did tell you we would refund it in the case it didn't ship, but we are at the mercy of the manufacturer. We should have stated that in the beginning to avoid any misunderstandings. We would appreciate it if you not call us a scam online because that really hurts are business model. We can provide proof that your money was sent to out wholesaler if that would help clear things up."

That is the correct response to a person that sends 10,000 grand up front no deposits. Not don't call me a scam, or I'll keep your money. WHAT KIND OF OKEEDOKE SH!T IS THAT? Now my guy has to call all of those authorities, and it's a lot of them to explain what's going on. I told him he should wait until he gets ALL of his money back before he withdraws his claim at his bank.

Good move Prominerz in getting that back to him, from what I read, he was on some real get em get em sh!t. Even was in direct communication with your bank. Glad things are working out and it should be a valuable lesson to both of you.

A friend of mine ordered from you and is waiting for his refund on a grin miner. I almost fell for the scam buy wanted to wait to see how his transaction turned out. I read all the email correspondence between yall and referred him to my lawyer. I wont pass judgement till I hear back from him.
Edit just talked to him. Hes filing a police report against prominerz Monday. So much for me sending them my money. Will keep the board posted on the outcome.

Someone already made a scam accusation against prominerz including the other fake miner shops. There are many people fell for this fake sellers and scammed big amount.

Let me ask if how your friend found the prominerz?

Next time tell your friends to buy directly to manufacturers to avoid scam if you use a 3rd party like prominerz you will always end up scammed.

Read this:

List of manufacturers below where you can buy miners from the real distributor or official websites.

- https://shop.bitmain.com/
- https://canaan.io/
- http://www.innosilicon.com/
- http://www.microbt.com/
- https://bitfury.com/
- http://miner.ebang.com.cn/

Don't deal again with 3rd party unless if they are verified seller or trusted seller/distributor from the manufacturer.

Other fake sellers can be found here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/fake-sellers-who-5174460

I believe he found them on Asicminer Not sure though.

Update:
Talked to him last night. He said he is holding out on the police report because he heard back from a guy named Reto at Prominerz, and that they had cancelled his order and were waiting for Innosilicon to send confirmation and the refund. He said he had heard that from them before, but that was before Innosilicon made the announcement about refunds.
I will keep the board posted.


Quick statement from ourselves before everybody starts fantasizing and hallucinating..

1st of all, WE ARE FUCKING LEGIT, like it or not, we have sold hundreds of miners, have hundreds of happy customers and its what we do, selling miners and hosting them, big or small clients.

OF COURSE ITS ALWAYS CHEAPER TO BUY FROM FACTORIES, ITS OBVIOUS!

2nd Things like in any business can go wrong, and when we are the ones who mistake, we take the shit and handle it, in the case of famous James, things are a bit more complicated though, they got complicated cause lets face something some of you might don't consider when writing here in the beautiful anonymity of the internet.

Mister James bought from us a G32-1800 in Spring, and asked us what would we do if the miner would have a delay or wouldn't come out. We told him that in this case there will be a refund, which is normal. YOU DON'T GET A MINER, YOU GET A REFUND for god sake, nobody wants to start a new life in a third world country with 10k. Unfortunately that miner had a major delay (Miners and Crypto People know that at the moment all deliveries are late from practically all batches) Innosilicon simply moved the release from August to October and then to January.

To make a comment on innosilicon, they are stupid, for real, they dont give a shit about resellers nor small customers, they absolutely care 0. So we placed the request of a cancellation for James already pretty early and when Innosilicon made their statement in October that they will give refunds cause of the delay, we again applied to get back the money for that order.

Now here is the thing and only smart people and people that are familiar with the market will understand. Wanna-be crypto's wont. So sorry if it ends here for your guys.

Resellers like us are fucking suffering these days. Its a real fuck up. We do this biz since 4 years and thsi year was simply catastrophic. Why? Cause Factories are announcing Miners they can't deliver, its something new, new in the way we experiencing it now. Delays are common, it can happen and most of us know it. But announcing miners collecting money and then schedule delivery as they want in this form, is completely new and THE REAL FRAUD here. Ask any other shop from asicminervalue.com and they will confirm. There are millions of dollars as we speak right now on Chinese Accounts simply not being refunded and being used to develop machines that have been announced but never really were on the market. See StrongU U6, see the delays of Whatsminer and see the delays even from Bitmain.

So this is what we know now, we did not know it when James purchased the miner that it would end up in a complete disaster, this is a complete new scenario in the market that big. The real disaster though is the way James acts even though its partially understandable. He is a customer, he feels we are responsible, we want to refund him but need to wait for the refund of innosilicon. Thats how it works and normally, till mid this year, all factories acted in a normal timeframe, life as a reseller was much easier.

Now here comes the problem. When you buy a miner from shops like us or others to be found on asicminervalue.com and you buy a batch, we do not have nor the miner, nor the direct purchase from the factory. Cause if the miner would be available from the factory, you would buy it there no? Right, they are not available anymore so chinese distributors resell their purchases (orders) to resellers like us. Has always been like that, has always worked (not only since last week) and that's the reason there is no order placed by PROMINERZ at innosilicon. So we need to tell those distributors to cancel James's order. We did that. Now we are waiting for the money from innosilicon to arrive.

Now since last week the situation changed drastically.

I understand when things aren't working out, people get desperate. But taking even this in consideration and writing reviews, accusing us of scam and or working with banks and being criminals, that is a bit too much. If something is wrong, you can always check the legal possibilities, act and put pressure by using the legal possibilities in your country or covered by international trade laws. Writing reviews publicly where you name us Scammers and threaten us with FBI, Police and probably in a next step with a personal visit of Donald Trump, we have to take action too. Every seller of whatever will understand what we are talking about. Writing reviews on that level, costs us money too, destroys our until now clean reputation and has consequences. To find a way out of this is only possible with lawyers cause paying back the client, having his uncontrollable written wrath online, is a no go, and that's where we stand now.

Sellers have rights too and it's not about taking advantage or keeping money, this matter got into a legal case by force and thank god we have laws in Switzerland and we don't live in a country where you go to jail just cause someone accuses you of something.

On a miner like this we earn about 4-7% and that's it. We don't become millionaires just cause we sell costly equipment, we are a normal mid size business that tries to make it easier for customers to buy miners from China. Cause buying from alibaba and other platforms is a risk, contains a risk still and that's why we exist.

We accept criticism and even handle accusations. If they are true and don't hurt us that way.

We are always reachable through our channels and gladly answer questions.

Looks like you're slandering Innosilicon's business. The same thing you claim he is doing to yours. Maybe someone needs to let Innosilicon know you're hurting their business.

Hey buddy, first of all calm down. Secondly. Did you refund his money? If so then no you're not a scammer and he should publicly admit that. If you haven't, then yes you can be classified as a scammer as with any other shop that does what I read in your emails. It's not hard to figure out.

Now you said something that is interesting. You mentioned Switzerland trade laws. You must not be aware of this https://econsumer.gov/#crnt
Which Switzerland is a part of. And yes I did see the case number for his complaint with them also.

Now as far as if your actions are criminal here is this.

Q: How does the IC3 define Internet crime?
Internet crime includes any illegal activity involving one or more components of the Internet, such as websites, chat rooms, and/or email. Internet crime involves the use of the Internet to communicate false or fraudulent representations to consumers. These crimes may include, but are not limited to, advance-fee schemes, non-delivery of goods or services, computer hacking, or employment/business opportunity schemes.
https://www.ic3.gov/faq/default.aspx

Now I haven't talked to him in a few days, so if you have resolved this I am sorry and will retract my statement, but if not. Pay the man his money. After all, you owe him he doesn't owe you!

Let me ask if how your friend found the prominerz?

Next time tell your friends to buy directly to manufacturers to avoid scam if you use a 3rd party like prominerz you will always end up scammed.

Read this:

List of manufacturers below where you can buy miners from the real distributor or official websites.

- https://shop.bitmain.com/
- https://canaan.io/
- http://www.innosilicon.com/
- http://www.microbt.com/
- https://bitfury.com/
- http://miner.ebang.com.cn/

Don't deal again with 3rd party unless if they are verified seller or trusted seller/distributor from the manufacturer.

Other fake sellers can be found here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/fake-sellers-who-5174460

I believe he found them on Asicminer Not sure though.

Update:
Talked to him last night. He said he is holding out on the police report because he heard back from a guy named Reto at Prominerz, and that they had cancelled his order and were waiting for Innosilicon to send confirmation and the refund. He said he had heard that from them before, but that was before Innosilicon made the announcement about refunds.
I will keep the board posted.


Quick statement from ourselves before everybody starts fantasizing and hallucinating..

1st of all, WE ARE FUCKING LEGIT, like it or not, we have sold hundreds of miners, have hundreds of happy customers and its what we do, selling miners and hosting them, big or small clients.

OF COURSE ITS ALWAYS CHEAPER TO BUY FROM FACTORIES, ITS OBVIOUS!

2nd Things like in any business can go wrong, and when we are the ones who mistake, we take the shit and handle it, in the case of famous James, things are a bit more complicated though, they got complicated cause lets face something some of you might don't consider when writing here in the beautiful anonymity of the internet.

Mister James bought from us a G32-1800 in Spring, and asked us what would we do if the miner would have a delay or wouldn't come out. We told him that in this case there will be a refund, which is normal. YOU DON'T GET A MINER, YOU GET A REFUND for god sake, nobody wants to start a new life in a third world country with 10k. Unfortunately that miner had a major delay (Miners and Crypto People know that at the moment all deliveries are late from practically all batches) Innosilicon simply moved the release from August to October and then to January.

To make a comment on innosilicon, they are stupid, for real, they dont give a shit about resellers nor small customers, they absolutely care 0. So we placed the request of a cancellation for James already pretty early and when Innosilicon made their statement in October that they will give refunds cause of the delay, we again applied to get back the money for that order.

Now here is the thing and only smart people and people that are familiar with the market will understand. Wanna-be crypto's wont. So sorry if it ends here for your guys.

Resellers like us are fucking suffering these days. Its a real fuck up. We do this biz since 4 years and thsi year was simply catastrophic. Why? Cause Factories are announcing Miners they can't deliver, its something new, new in the way we experiencing it now. Delays are common, it can happen and most of us know it. But announcing miners collecting money and then schedule delivery as they want in this form, is completely new and THE REAL FRAUD here. Ask any other shop from asicminervalue.com and they will confirm. There are millions of dollars as we speak right now on Chinese Accounts simply not being refunded and being used to develop machines that have been announced but never really were on the market. See StrongU U6, see the delays of Whatsminer and see the delays even from Bitmain.

So this is what we know now, we did not know it when James purchased the miner that it would end up in a complete disaster, this is a complete new scenario in the market that big. The real disaster though is the way James acts even though its partially understandable. He is a customer, he feels we are responsible, we want to refund him but need to wait for the refund of innosilicon. Thats how it works and normally, till mid this year, all factories acted in a normal timeframe, life as a reseller was much easier.

Now here comes the problem. When you buy a miner from shops like us or others to be found on asicminervalue.com and you buy a batch, we do not have nor the miner, nor the direct purchase from the factory. Cause if the miner would be available from the factory, you would buy it there no? Right, they are not available anymore so chinese distributors resell their purchases (orders) to resellers like us. Has always been like that, has always worked (not only since last week) and that's the reason there is no order placed by PROMINERZ at innosilicon. So we need to tell those distributors to cancel James's order. We did that. Now we are waiting for the money from innosilicon to arrive.

Now since last week the situation changed drastically.

I understand when things aren't working out, people get desperate. But taking even this in consideration and writing reviews, accusing us of scam and or working with banks and being criminals, that is a bit too much. If something is wrong, you can always check the legal possibilities, act and put pressure by using the legal possibilities in your country or covered by international trade laws. Writing reviews publicly where you name us Scammers and threaten us with FBI, Police and probably in a next step with a personal visit of Donald Trump, we have to take action too. Every seller of whatever will understand what we are talking about. Writing reviews on that level, costs us money too, destroys our until now clean reputation and has consequences. To find a way out of this is only possible with lawyers cause paying back the client, having his uncontrollable written wrath online, is a no go, and that's where we stand now.

Sellers have rights too and it's not about taking advantage or keeping money, this matter got into a legal case by force and thank god we have laws in Switzerland and we don't live in a country where you go to jail just cause someone accuses you of something.

On a miner like this we earn about 4-7% and that's it. We don't become millionaires just cause we sell costly equipment, we are a normal mid size business that tries to make it easier for customers to buy miners from China. Cause buying from alibaba and other platforms is a risk, contains a risk still and that's why we exist.

We accept criticism and even handle accusations. If they are true and don't hurt us that way.

We are always reachable through our channels and gladly answer questions.

Well I heard back from him today. He said Innosilicon said they never heard of prominerz and that they had no orders from them for his miner. Nor did they have any orders in the other names this guy uses. He reported the fraud to the FTC, and the internet cyber crimes unit of the FBI IC3. He said hell be filing a local police report this week. He also said some other things that Im not at liberty to repeat on here. Looks like prominerz is a scam after all.

Thanks for the info. I have passed it on. He's not on Bitcointalk. I read a lot fof correspondence between him and a guy named Reto at Prominerz. He threatened to take Reto to court on it. Last I talked to him today, he said he was filing a police report in America next week and he has already filed with the FTC. I don't know if anything has changed since then, (9:00am est)
Lots of emails back and fourth between the 2. Prominerz claimed they were waiting on Innosilicon to cancel the order. Don't know if that is true or not. I can say this though. My guy is out 10 grand and about to drop another 5 on a lawyer I referred him to plus travel cost. I almost ordered at the same time he did but wasn't ready when he was. Will be interesting to see how this plays out.

I asked him if I can have copies of the emails and he said after he files the Police report Monday he will shoot me copies.

Hi guys,

Prominerz here to take all the questions about the shop(s). I saw somoeone commented that he got blocked from the account when trying to login to our user dashboard which is not impossible. We have had a problem with a DDOS Attacks like other shops, probably came from an unhappy customer (yes unhappy customers exist too and they can be evil).

We are always honest and transparent and have nothing to hide. Crypto is still on a very shaky ground where suppliers, distributors and unofficial resellers (yes! nobody besides the factories is official even if they claim to be) like us have to deal with a whole lot of cr..

What I can comment here on some of the shops from asicminervalue is that most of them I know and they are good to go. For me clearly the difference is the quality of service as well as the communication with the buyer/customer. We try to keep that quick and easy as good as we can (sometimes when the hype is up it's getting hard to keep up with a small team). We improve that part also every day, and that obviously is our job.

For now I think we are doing the best that can be done with the tools the market provides and as much customers have bad experiences as much we do have sh... to deal with the factories as resellers. Factories for example reschedule, they cancel, the threat us with cancellation if we communicate negative about them, they reschedule again and then when all works smooth they want us as "official" partners to then again fuck us up when shit goes down during a hype. Its very very delicate but I can assure the people that asked that asicminervalue is doing the best they can to check on the sites they add. As far as I have info, websites get declined on a daily base, meaning, every day some scam douchbags try to get listed as trusted vendors...

The market is still like the wild wild west but there is people working in the background trying to make it better and I am counting prominerz and some others to be part of that direction of the movement...

If there are any questions, just hit me up here.

Hello everyone
I want to share my experience with Sesterce. I had ordered 4 Obelisk GRN1 units. It was a pre order and I would get them in October. Unfortunately Obelisk cancelled the launch of GRN1.  So I asked for an immediate refund. Now, although I won't get the product and there is nothing to wait for, Sesterce says I must will not get my money back until October. Has anyone ordered the same product or had a similar issue? Has anyone been reimbursed from Sesterce or expects to be reimbursed? I would be really interested in letting me know your experience.
Look up to this thread https://www.reddit.com/r/EtherMining/comments/bovin5/bitech_mining_sesterce/#bottom-comments
It seems they are legit ones but they do have issue that they do sent out old miners instead of new ones when you do ordered.Their Reddit account support is
responsive too but I still doubt into this shop.

Like I said above it is hard to trust this site and we don't know if they can refund your money. Did you try to contact them first and wait for their response instead and maybe they will let you choose to buy another product with the same value as an exchange?

I hope next time don't deal with unknown sellers there are some reviews but all of them are newbies and always verify if they are verified, distributor.

Why not contact the manufacturer and ask if the prominerz is their verified distributor or seller to ease your fears. This is the official website of the manufacturer https://obelisk.tech/

If they are verified seller or distributor you are safe you can wait for their response for refund.

Just keep praying till the doorbell i guess...

Hope you're in luck and you will get your order.

But out of pure curiosity, what was the offer that convinced you to buy from them and not from another manufacturer?
I've checked their prices and nothing looks really that attractive to risk it.

3000 for the t17 and 800 for an s9j  if you but 10 is not that great.

A lot of sites that Asicminervalue used to list as 'tested' in the past weren't actually legit and several of them were pretty scammy sites too. Best way you can buy miners is from the distributor directly, and the next best is from a bigger and more reputable reseller such as on a site like eBay (as eBay has good buyer protection).

That's bad if you order already from the site and experience some issue when accessing your account.
I told you earlier that it is safe to buy if you order miner directly to the manufacturer that is why I ask if what miner you are planning to buy because I'd like to help you if where's the safe place to buy for the specific miner you like.


Did you try to contact the support? Let me ask if what payment method you use to pay from prominerz? If you use paypal you can start to dispute your order to reverse the payment.

Never heard this website before but when I tried to search this domain here on the forum someone already promoting it.

Look at these two post below.

- https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.46360777

And according to asicminervalue.com it is one of the trusted distributors.

Let me ask if what miner you are planning to buy?

I suggest you buy directly to manufacturers like in bitmain.com for Antminer for your safety.
