Title: So I was careless enough to get scammed by ASIC technologies...
Post by: BecomingPhill on September 18, 2013, 08:33:30 AM
So I got suckered by the numbers and promise of free shipping on http://www.asic-technologies.com/ and didn't do due diligence to find out whether the company was legit.

here is blockchain of payment

:-(

If you think you can get your bitcoins back even if the recipient doesn't want to, you should read more about Bitcoin

Ouch that makes it hurt even more, but you're right I guess...should have done my homework. There should be a scam board added to the top of bitcointalk...

ASIC miner with Audio ports. LOL  ;D ;D
I can't believe people fall for this.
Nonetheless, there is 0 chance to get your money back.

Are those Audio connections on the front? it is about time they made asic miners duel purpose...

edit: On a more serious note, I hope that you manage to recover from your losses and i hope it does not effect you to much.

You can get your money back, but it would involve finding out where they are, a few friends, and several shotguns.

At this point, stealing the money back from them would not REALLY be a crime, seeing as how they have lied and stolen more and they did it first.

I looked at this and thought they were using a commercially available case, and didn't expect the audio and usb to be connected. Didn't buy for other reasons.

Ouch, I don't think there is any hope you'll get any of your BTC back or the actual goods. You would be better off taking this as a hard lesson learned and never jumping into investments before checking out their background.
