Topic: WARNING: Minersbit.com IS a scam. DO NOT TRUST (Read 4864 times)

I won't say I was blindsided but was lil tempted with high payouts but when i realized they have around 15k members it was obvious that they are not gonna pay , I mean 15000*0.006=90btc Daily , so i saw Red Flags everywhere.

I was slightly blindsided with the high payouts.... But I agree since no website for two days!

I was sure it will end similar way.
Nobody pays 60 cents for a click

Finally it comes to an end.

I'm glad I used a random password when signing up. Noticed their home page says they've been hacked and they are asking for donations. Hope no one sends them any. Seems like a huge scam! I didn't spend any money their, just was trying their program to earn BTC.

if u used same pw on many sites, you are indeed not very smart

I used different passwords for minersbit and mail or exchanges. Am i still in danger?

someone just tryed to access my btc-e account at 19:00gmt from ip address 178.209.51.144

i did a iptrace, comes back as switzerland.

please have a look at the link below it shows location of the ip that acessed my btc-e acount.

http://www.ip-adress.com/ip_tracer/178.209.51.144

ip came from below:

ISP of this IP [?]:    Nine Internet Solutions AG
Organization:    EDIS GmbH
Host of this IP: [?]:    144-51-209-178.static.edis.at

does anybody have any information on these companys.

thanks

Can You please PM me some proofs (screenshot, logs...) so I can add it to main article?

please stay away from this website!!

i signed up 2 days ago,  using my email address and password, like an idiot i used the same password for my email as i did when signing up to miners bit.

i woke this morning to find my cryptsy account empty and my btc-e empty aswell., all coins where sold at a very cheap rate and withdrawn.

bit of a coincidence that i signed up with minersbit then had my accounts hijacked, looks like they accessed my email and got the relevant information.

they even had the cheek to delete the cryptsy withdrawal confirmation email.

I already signed up for premium membership and payed according to instructions about 12 hours ago, sended (and received) some emails, but still not even got my account upgraded. I am going to write new topic with all the info and screens in next few hours (dont have a time now..) and keep You all updated, until then please DON´T send them any coins.

UPDATE:
Whole promised story can be found here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/scam-site-report-minersbitcom-494785

Sketchy indeed.

When I signed up I never received the confirmation email. They have since removed it but it still asks for one sometimes.
I had to get them to manually reset my password twice before I could log in. Very poor support with weird english. They repeat the same cookie cutter bullshit constantly.

Then when I calculated the amount of BTC earned through their mining, and it makes no sense. They are giving away so much money that they could just be mining for themselves. But instead they are renting them for a profit waaaay less. Like 5+ times less.

I'll see what happens once I reach the minumum WD. I'm only at .023 now, I forgot about them.

If anyone has bought their mining let us know if you are ever able to withdraw...

Here were my emails with them (bottom to top is the order recieved):


Dear sir.

me:
Starting a quick IRC would be good because it would keep people knowing that it isnt a scam by talking to each other... unless it is a scam...


Them:
Dear Sir.

Me:
the proof page does not confirm that you guys are legit... you could be sending them to yourselves... just a bit concerned that im getting scammed. any way to prove your legitimacy would be appreciated


Them:

Me:
How are us members able to know that you are legit? at the moment, it seems like you may not be, with all of the Bitcointalk threads being locked. The "proof of payment" page could just be you sending stuff to yourselves... Can you find a way to prove that you are legit?

I haven't bought into their cloud mining services, but I do use their faucet.  Haven't gotten to the minimum yet, but I noticed they cut the number of ads per day.  When I emailed them asking why they just denied their was a problem.


 

I'm warning people about minersbit.com

The payouts are to high, and the few people that have managed to get to the minimum withdraw requirements said that the form does not work. I'm currently working my way up to the minimum, so I will update here what happens when i try withdrawing.

In the meantime, just don't buy their cloud mining services, whatever you do! Hope I helped someone avoid getting scammed.
