Title: More Possible ASIC scam Sites
Post by: Sc@rF@c3 on April 25, 2013, 10:04:58 PM
Hi Guys, I cannot post in any other forum...

I read about the scam sites
http://asicrigs.com
and
http://www.gxmining.com/

here are two firms that have not been validated as genuine or scam

http://dragon-asic.com/
http://www.cedartec.net/

Please move into appropriate forum
Bitcoin Forum > Bitcoin > Mining > Mining speculation

Regards

NO

These are sites that have cropped up overnight, and are potential scam sites.

There are no credible resources at the time of posting to confirm the sites as Legit.

I noticed that the
http://terrahash.com/ site was showing pictures of Avalon products.

Avalon have stated that they do not have any resellers...

cedartec look like they are making an efford.

I suspect that they are just using Avalon chips. ("10 000 chips" same quantity as an Chip batch from avalon)

Anyone know if picostocks or the 100TH/s mine is legit or run by reputable people?

I think terrahash is buying avalon chips and mounting them on their own pcb boards and selling them. They haven't shipped anything, so could be a scammer.

The scary thing that I see is the lack of pre-launch forum discussion on this forum before a website and sales shop launches.
I would expect to be able to find something on this forum to build up interest and credibility
This is why I have listed these pop up sites.

maybe the "really official" thread will give more info:

They don't want money until they'll have something... So maybe worth keeping an eye on imho...

I see my Terrahash post is 30 minutes ahead of their opening post (May 07, 2013)
