Hello, I would like to request that my thread "SwiftMiner 2.2TH/s BTC Miners Available for March Delivery!" be deleted altogether. A company only gets one chance to make a first impression, and I would not like our future customers to see all the scam accusations coming from this thread. This could possibly decrease trust in our company. We are planning on re-posting a new thread with much more proof of legitimacy, as to avoid the scam accusations and provide a good first impression to all looking at the thread. If you could get back to us as soon as possible that would be great. Thank you.

It's a tough road with no verifiable credentials that I can see, no real proof of a prototype, no substantive information providing folks a level of confidence in your offering.

That is the most flattering way I've read "I smell a possible scam"  today.

Red flag alert, no address and no phone number!

Also Swiftminer is not a legal corporation or small business name as is legally required by Canadian law!

Website is Wordpress + WooCommerce Plugin with modified enfold theme. Not terrible, but not too time consuming either.

Thanks for that concise breakdown. Good man.  You just saved me some research!

One coin to rule them all
As I've said to a lot of these 'fly by night' 'hardware companies' before, I am very willing to accept delivery of your hardware for testing and review purposes. That offer stands with any company.
Although I'm still waiting for a legitimate party to contact me.

+1
I like this initiative very much from MiningBuddy.

------------

If you are considering purchasing from this "company" please proceed with extreme caution, all the danger sign are here, this is most likely a scam.

Ask your self: do you want to give thousands of dollars to someone you never meet, who nobody vetted for, with no chance of refund?

They claim to be using bitpay, but their checkout isn't using bitpay.  A legitimate company at this phase would desperately need to get fiat currency; a scammer doesn't bother with payment processors and just takes bitcoin directly.  Caveat Emptor.

We will be posting video proof of our current prototype very soon. We will also post pictures of the entire team in our work space. Please do not jump to conclusions. We will do our very best to provide complete transparency in order to keep our customers fully informed throughout the entire process.
There is no need to make rash assumptions.

Update your website register information so its actually accurate.  But you won't do that because you have no actual product and have no actual company.

Please stop trying to scam this community.

If you are interested in being verified by the community, I would be happy to visit your company location in Toronto sometime in the next two weeks at your convenience. If everything checks out and you have a working prototype, I will purchase two of the 2.2TH/s models on the spot and can pay in bitcoin or in cash, USD or CAD.

I know that I am a relative newbie here on bitcointalk, but I am an active user on Localbitcoins.com with Pro Trader status and over 1000 trades in the past year. I believe that my reputation on Localbitcoins and on BTCjam would allow me to serve as a strong endorsement for your company. Please let me know if you are interested in taking me up on this offer.

^the shill.

With all due respect, nobody needs to make any rash assumptions because the facts speak for themselves.  One fact that really irks me is that you changed your story about your company having produced working 20 nm chips. The reference to 20 nm was on your website, you got called on it, then your website was changed, and then you denied having made the representation in the first place. I provided pictures that prove the reference to 20 nm chips.

Your only defense now is to say the website contained a typo or that you're not in charge of web design, neither of which are likely to be persuasive given the difference between 20nm and 28nm as well as the current race to 20 nm.  Please explain this discrepancy if you can.

Their refund policy looks solid:

"Yes, we completely understand that financial situations change, and as such we offer a full refund up until your product has shipped."

We do not make any claim to produce 20nm chips. All of our miners user 28nm ASIC chips. We are also working on getting our toll-free number set up as we speak. There were some delays, but this will be set up as soon as possible. Until then, our live chat is available to answer any questions.

Actually you are off to a tremendous start as a mining hardware  Co.  You are already experiencing DELAYS!!!

Care to send a test unit to a trusted forum member who will verify your machine and vouch for your product, and then pay in full for the machine after receipt?

Pretty well done scam. You went too far in this part:

With our team of highly-focused engineers we have managed to successfully design working 20nm ASIC processors in fractions of the time of the competition.

Next time stick with more reasonable claims and you'll be able to scam more poeople.
