Did you see that?

https://ore-mine.org/index.html (https://ore-mine.org/index.html)

I am not sure that it is fake or not but US Global Illicit Financial Team seized the domain?!

idk, but i had accused that site before the site goes down.
the picture of seizing seems not legit, so i would assume that their site is just collapsed.

It's a fake,he just deleted all files on hosting and put on only one picture.
That's all.
Ore-mine is a scam ponzi
he is probably somewhere on holiday :)

How do u know that it is not real?

Certificate is the same.
nameservers too
russian who.is
I'm 100% sure

Try to inspect element ore mine site, compare to the any seized site (eg: http://libertyreserve.com). You will see the difference ... #CMIIW

Both seems to look like exactly same!

Very interesting news for us. How many btc did you lose today?  ;D

About 500k Satoshi  8)
But it was worth it for the lesson I learnt!

Let us all learn from this experience and not donate money to the next ponzi.

Sad news guys This site is died alrdy
Last time this site is a best but also turn into ponzi scheme..
Did you guys lost alot of btc here?

I can't spot any difference there, does it mean it's legit? Anyone could just simple use the image and pretend that was an official announcement and just make an excuse and get away with it, can't find anything aside from the picture in the sour code of site as well, very fishy and they haven't said anything regarding it AFAIK.

It is incredible that I just register that site yesterday and made a small 50k satoshi investment. Now today it is "seized". They did not gave me the chance even to be hopeful about the site lol.

But it is better this way, probably would have invested more if it has remained online. Lesson learned.

It was saying yesterday DO NOT INVEST on the site... that didnt throw up any red flags for you?

Earned a few thousand Satoshi's there and I was able to withdraw funds few day's ago but it's not really that big, good thing withdrawal was successful. A paying site is not really a plus factor that it's not going to fold up. Let's move on.

For this kind of sites, hypes, ponzis, etc if you are the first ones, you are so lucky and earn too much like you are in a dream!.. Like all ponzis, last ones always lose...

Interesting how this happens right after a special promotion to get more deposits isn't it.

(a)
(1) The court, in imposing sentence on a person convicted of an offense in violation of section 1956, 1957, or 1960 of this title, shall order that the person forfeit to the United States any property, real or personal, involved in such offense, or any property traceable to such property.

Most likely just got the image off a seized website and replaced their index page with it.

I did not consider ore-mine as an investment site although I invested a few thousand Satoshi's for those mines but the earnings there are just enough to recover what I've invested 6 months ago. I consider this site as a faucet that I don't have to stay on the site for a hours to earn. Good luck to the owner and the campaign manager. Troll's will be hounding them in the next couple of weeks.

It was so easy to figure this was another ponzi but some people simply like their money being stolen from them.

Magic farms in some magic land. No photos, no explanation for 3 months ROI, no names, nothing.

Hashnest, the biggest ASIC producers gives you 1 year ROI, even that s big IF, and some unknown scammers gives u 3 months and you go for the scammer. Nice.

it was more of a joke ponzi to be honest, the earning were akin to a faucets, so there is really no big loss there

it can even be that they are not earning nothign anymore and they shut down everything

There is no evidence about that from FBI site or others...
I think it's a fake one...
as already stated from liberty reserve seize.
try to search it on google images ;)

FBI or these institutions do not operate outside of US. Ore mine was somewhere in east europe. So just a BS for noobs to say good bye to their money easier.

 :P :P :P :P

if its real why they dont put in grave scrypt.cc??
scrypt.cc is the most wanted scammer out there

well if they operate outside US they not only scam, but also try to joke with users.
bad ending for a ponzi... I have joined more than one years ago for the faucet, but it pay too bad to be take in consideration.


Probably, just a question of time!

someone say if that true from  "United States Global Illicit Financial Team",  we will see not just that picture but include a copy of the seizure warrant on the site.

No, Its faked claim that site being seized just look at libertyreserve.com, bodog.com and ore-mine.org look at the address in your browser(i recommeded to use chrome) when you open it and u will see ore mine still have https protocol not like others two site

if you all believe, that the site is completely controlled by the FBI?
I think not .. because I have asked my colleagues who worked on it. that the FBI did not have a seizure solid base to proceed to the law ..
and this is just a trick of his owner .. if everything would be deceived again by fraudsters

Completely fake way to EXIT with all your coins.

SSL cert never changed... so no seizure took place.

IP address where domain points never changed... so no seizure took place.

There is no paperwork from the Southern District of New York and no filings that would be required BEFORE a seizure... (Why Southern District of New York?  Because that's the prosecuting agency that was in the image that was taken from the LibertyReserve website.)

Any reputable "wallet" company (which Ore-Mine was attempting to promote itself to be) would have backup private keys and could easily restart on any other server and just pickup right where things were left after the "seizure"... which actually never happened.

Not only that, but the US Attorney's office would have released a press release announcing the seizure and shut down of the ponzi, and there's nothing on their website announcing any such action.

Some one was actually trying to sell their account that was good for 2 years:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1330263.msg13577473#msg13577473
 :D
It was faked to run off with the investor's coins.
Typical way to not have to pay of converse with the complaints all their users will making to them. Exit strategy initialed.  :-\

It's fake for the obvious reasons:

- There would have been a press release by now, just like the Liberty Reserve seizure.

- Seized for what exactly? If they're going after people who run ponzi schemes (pirateat40) then we'd have a lot more seizures of websites. Weirdly enough, it's only been one website out of all the thousands that were running.

Either way, your funds are gone.

Due to the large volume of Bitcoins that Ore-Mine handled, the idea about the site laundering money doesn't seem too wild. But as you said, no crime organization has stated anything about this, so it's probably fake anyways.

I wonder why there are like 4 threads about this already, like people need to start looking to see that there is a thread literally with the same exact topic.

As mentioned before, its definitely fake. Just check the nameserver, its still on the same host. Seized domains will be pointed to shadow servers. Besides that, before any seizing occurs, there will be a court order out first. Just like irl before the police can arrest someone, there must be an arrest warrant. Without an official order, the fbi nor any authorities won't have any rights to take over a website.

I literally am in shock that people are believing that the site was seized by the "New York" "Global Illicit Financial Team."  Maybe next time they go to Chicago for their warrant to seize an African website lol People need to begin using logic , I understand some people may be from third world countries on this board and their education may not be very good but please it is just common sense.

Hence why many lost their btc. I categorize this people as cult followers as they still trust sector. Lmao.

You guys underestimate the power of the U.S authorities. They can seize a domain outside of the U.S. Look at Liberty Reserve, hosted in Costa Rica, or Megaupload in Hong Kong. Both were seized by the US, so it can happen. However, Ore-Mine was a Bitcoin business which (unless it's an exchange that trades with "real" money) no authority will seize, due to still being an unregulated or unclear currency in many parts of the world, so they wouldn't shutdown Ore-Mine, unless it was financing money launderers or terrorist activities. Due to the absence of actions by the US authorities pages (which Liberty Reserve and Megaupload did have, everywhere), it's obvious that Ore-Mine wasn't shut down by the US, but that doesn't mean that it could never happen.  

No one underestimated the US authorities. As mentioned, they can only confiscated a website once a legal order is issued anywhere in the world. As for ore-mine, you're right. It was faked.

Now since Ore-mine.org  turned to be a scam, maybe it is the time to join/play on a serious website which always pays his users:   Bitcoin Space Mining Game (http://game.bitcoinspace.net)

Sigh, u also another 1 take advantage of ore-mine situation and self promote your website..

Ok if i put it like this , if fbi did realy took down the site , why is the thread on this forum also taken down , have fbi started taking down forum posts now also? ofc its a dumb trick to get away with less heat from the owners of ore-mine.

Sad day indeed,  I'm a homeless man just trying to get off the streets,  I'd take a job but disabled...  So,  I  do this, click my booty off...  Lost 4 complete levels and over 4 million satoshi...  I  wrote the people in New York,  to see what they say, if it is a scam, they got the wrong person passed off... So,  sad...

Wow, its my first time to see a homeless person posting in a forum though.

Ya.. and knew how to invest using bitcoin..

I feel for you brother, I can imagine it's extremely stressful even without that $&!**

For all you know, everyone on this forum is homeless you dumbasses, just because they don't tell you as such..
Also 80% of homeless people own a smartphone (where I live anyway), so I imagine they are quite comfortable using the internet.

Don't kill Sector before payments please.

lol x2

im feel sorry for u all for losing many coin.im glad im not invest in ore mine.but i do collect free satoshi from this shitty site   >:(

No new info I see this make me skeptical if there are any services who will not scam you. It's hard to trust other services if there are so many scammers around.

I think its one of the inherent problems of bitcoin, it doesn't lend to transparency.  Anonymity is overrated imo.

Regardless if Sector is alive and kicking, if he don't want to pay ore-mine's investor's it's up to him. Ore-mine's investor's holds nothing to compel Sector to pay up, unlike other issues in this forum where a number of people hold's some dox that can make someone change their mind if they plan to scam.
