Give me my money you fucking scammer

Thanks for warning us!
Scammers must be pointed out! 

I personally haven't make any trade with Technobit or marto74.

But judging from both the experience of OP and joeventura, I would definitely think twice before making any trade with Technobit or marto74 in the future.

I have wait 3 month for a board that never come.
But then i asked "gently" for a refund and a i get my money back.

Technobit have HUGE problem of communication, but they are not scammer. You'll find dozen of people that have received their boards and are happy with them. You can even find some one ebay.

From your painful experience, it seems OP will never ever get the refund....

Might as well jump in here too.

Marto, through a botched Group Buy scammed me out of 1.43BTC

If you look at the details in his trust you will see many people have lost money to this guy.

In my case, he ran a group buy then 6 months later, decided to cancel it due to avalon not delivering,
and instead of PMing everyone in the group buy he leaves a message in a 6 month old thread telling everyone if they don't send him a message to him by a certain time and date with a special signature that you were out of luck.

In that very same thread month or more earlier I asked for a refund and he did not provide it.

Then when I finally saw his little message he said I was too late and all he was willing to do was ship me chips, which he claimed to do in October of 2013. You know what Avalon Gen 1 chips were worth in Oct 2013? NOTHING!

But even then he said he shipped them, they never arrived and he tried to get ANOTHER 0.10 BTC from me to pay for special shipping.

be an informed buyer, read the threads where he does business you have about a 90% chance, in my opinion of getting screwed in some way, late shipment (usually 3 months), No shipment,  lost shipment.

This is someone you NEVER want to do business with. EVER.

Thanks for the heads up.

bad customer service , will never buy from them

scam rather not but I know from a reliable source that they cant deliver!
sorry I write only now but there was no other way! 

You are geting your miners without ASIC chips - what you paid for !!!!!
You spam more than 100 msg in all my treads.
So goodbye

Your sending is signed received.
Just check tracking please

I don't think they are a scam. This is how my order with TechnoBit went.

1x ordered 19th Novemeber for Decemebr Batch 1 was delivered by Dec 13th (Shipping €30 DPD) paid PayPal
1x ordered 22nd November for December Batch 1 was delivered Jan 22nd. (Shipping €4 bigger order) paid BitBay
4x ordered 23rd November for December Batch 1 was delivered by Jan 10th (Shipping  €4 bigger order) paid BitPay

I didn't get a tracking number but they all arrived within 7 days of their order system changing from "payment accepted" to "shipped".

Technobit don't seem to able to combine orders so my advice would be never to use the €4 "bigger order" option, it may cause delays because it could look like you didn't pay for shipping! Their PDF file doesn't seem to include your shipping notes like "add to my previous order".

Paypal is back on their store, and as that arrived first, I'd have to say paying the extra 5% for PayPal probably adds some pressure to deliver your order within 30-45 days!

My 22nd Nov order came last, it seemed missed because it was out of date order, so I mentioned it to Martin on the Hex16B purchase BitcoinTalk thread, and it was in the posted the next day! Comms are not great but being nasty to Martin won't get your order out any faster.

Sure I'm not happy with how long my order took, but all Bitcoin miner manufacturers have delays, Butterfly Labs took 6 months+ to deliver some of their orders, my Technobit experience was much better. These things are custom made, and they cannot make everyones order at the same time, if you want fast delivery, order from someone on eBay who has a miner in hand, but be prepared to pay up to double for the privileged.

Thanks for the alert.



Guess the scammer has run away with your funds.
Sorry for your loss

Thanks for the heads up.

Ordered with December delivery, still waiting and no email answers.

I agree to the thread opener. Never got a refund as promised ("10 days until christmas") via email or contact form.

Technobit.eu is just scam So, beware!

Hello, me too. I ask for a refund at Technobit.eu Website on 2013-12-09. They told me, the refund "will be done in 10 days". Yesterday (2014-01-09) I double checked my bank account and get nothing from Technobit. Plus they don't answer to any eMail or Contact-Message furthermore (last few weeks). They are scammers. My Order-ID is FESYNGABJ. I am going to my lawyer and will fight against those scammers using the most possible of an law enforcement. However, law enforcement is much easier sind 2014, because the scammers sitting in Bulgaria and are now  in a country based in the European Union.

Don't purchase anything from Technobit Scammers.

Thanks for the alert.
Indeed, you can move this thread yourself.

Well I am going to look into legal adice now, he has held my money for over a month which means I lost interests on it, did not deliver the items which means loss of income.
He keeps being active on the forum but fails to reply to me.

Something is obviously going on

at 2013-09-20 i made an order at technobit.eu for 8x HEX16A and directly payed it via bitpay

now it's the 6. of december and i didn't receive my ordered hardware and get no reply to my mails about additional shipping costs...

Definitely report him so they see he loses his status/membership or he does his part of the deal.

The main worry is that while we are gettng no replies to the many emails and messages he is still seen as a respected member on this forum and was able to keep posting.

No time for the orders but time to lure more people in.

Again I renew my invite to prove meet wrong by dealing with costumers and clearing the air.

Meanwhile I'll be contacting the local authorities

Thanks for alerting us. We really need to avoid those scammers.

ok that sheds new light on things. Maybe I won't be ordering there after all...

Well I trid contacting technobit several and I mean several times with no replies.

Used the tracking code provided which comes up as cancelled.

Contacted DPD which has no record of the parcel.

Contacted Speedy which is the Bulgarian courier that passes on to DPD and they say the parcel was cancelled.

Tried again technobit but no answer.

Meanwhile Marto is active on this forum convincing people he is legit...

Hi

I've read elsewhere that people are having problems with DPD tracking numbers. I've had similar problems in the past with dpd.

Try going to the DPD site of the country they are sending from and enter your tracking number.

Also try cookietrail, they can track most parcels.


I have nothing to do with Technobit and am trying to place an order with them - but I think it might be a bit premature calling them scammers just because the tracking number doesn't work.

Though DPD have never lost a parcel sent to me, they wouldn't be my first choice of courier.

A third option is phoning DPD in your country and see if they can find the parcel, works on occasion.

Thanks for the heads up

Sorry for the first post in the wrong area I hope it can be moved to the correct one.

As per title please do not trust this company.

Orders are received and processed however tracking codes for the shipments are fake.

Ofcourse Marto74 can prove me wrong and start replying to the emails and updates requests sent.

Until than I consider it a scam!
