Title: Blockchain Investment Ltd. BEWARE of ponzi scam Post by: bL4nkcode on December 25, 2016, 08:56:15 AM I was sleeping this afternoon and wake up at 4:30 +8 GMT And I received an email from blockchain.info I dont really think if they own this email or just another hocus-pocus that they have this investment platform.

Screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/ht0cTax.jpg Who also received this email? Is blockchain.info is another a ponzi? I want to hear from you regarding this issue. To mods if I'm in the wrong section please move this thread to its proper board. Thanks. Edit: I just figured out that this email sent from noreply-smtp95848@blockchaln.info Its from blockchaIn.info or big i "I" or small letter L Beware from this guys https://i.imgur.com/lcNyEZJ.jpg Title: Re: Blockchain Investment Ltd??? Post by: Fortify on December 25, 2016, 09:35:24 AM It does look like a scam, I don't know where else they use Limited companies but it does not exist in the UK. You should post the headers of the email, as that would help people track down the location and mail servers that were used to send it. It is possible to fake emails from any website, so do not send them any money at all.
Title: Re: Blockchain Investment Ltd??? Post by: alani123 on December 25, 2016, 09:45:13 AM It's probably a spoofed email if the sender address is indeed blockchain.info. I'm sure no company would ever send out emails asking for investments to be made directly to a bitcoin address, this is very unprofesional and would cause to losing track of investments. So it surely is an attempt to scam.

Sometimes I receive emails like that directly to my junk email folder with many unreal offers. It's not blockchain email, just someone trying to use their brand to steal you.
There are some similar attempts on google, when people search for Blockchain.info wallet. Too many scammers trying to make people believe they are Blockchain.info team.

BEWARE of ponzi scam Post by: mobnepal on December 26, 2016, 12:13:52 PM I am also receiving this types of ponzi/spam mails from quite some months but most of them get filtered towards spam folder so i really don't care about them. You can easily detect that this can't be more than just a scam.
Title: Re: Blockchain Investment Ltd. BEWARE of ponzi scam Post by: Hixad52 on December 26, 2016, 01:47:59 PM I also had one email like this and I deleted it at once.
The Scammers always think off many ways to steal our money. These bullshit scammers do not want to work or lazy working. Title: Re: Blockchain Investment Ltd. BEWARE of ponzi scam Post by: veleten on December 26, 2016, 03:39:50 PM looks like some database got leaked or another "cloudmining" scam
decided to earn additional money by selling its users data either way report as spam and delete,no such offers are made via emails Title: Re: Blockchain Investment Ltd.

How many the people have got scammed caused by this one, This scammer is so smart copying the blockchain logo and minimising the odd thing. This will be very difficult for differentiating the real email and fake one. I already compare it with the real email and just different in his email address. Title: Re: Blockchain Investment Ltd???

BEWARE of ponzi scam Post by: kode54 on September 23, 2017, 12:02:11 AM They're still at it, and this time, they're calling that fresh address you just posted a "scam", and posting the "real" address, which thankfully nobody has fallen for, yet.
https://imgur.com/a/qGjKu E: And it looks like a bunch of people fell for that last one. Title: Re: Blockchain Investment Ltd. BEWARE of ponzi scam Post by: ss890 on September 23, 2017, 01:45:53 PM That should be complete scam mail and do not even try to click a link in it and better delete it in he first place. You can always enquire about the mail by asking the blockchain support team. If that's true then you can ask for that mail again. But they will never send out mails like that to end users because it does look like very unprofessional. They could have gone through proper protocol, like firstly sending out the promotional notice over website itself or may be a official mail but not from do not reply for sure.
