Title: "Nigerian" PM's in this forum? Post by: Luno on February 01, 2013, 01:35:39 PM A few days ago I got a PM from a 9 post newbie with a business proposition:
He solicited to contact me to tell me about this ASIC mining share company I could buy shares in!!! Investing in mining gear is to risky in my opinion, so I was never really tempted. Any of you had this happen too? Title: Re: "Nigerian" PM's in this forum?

Post by: Luno on February 25, 2013, 11:49:24 AM I was not making this up and there is a chance that the guy that contacted me is completely legit and really wants to start an investment ASIC firm.
However it stinks, why PM me personally, instead of making a thread here instead? I told him that ASIC's are a gamble and he would need at lot of meney to buy hardware, so if he was real I turned him off. So I don't post some guys personal PM on a forum on the basis of a suspision. He was a 7 post newb. Cheres |
