BFL has a new name?


...oh.



oh?

they look...very similar.

The picture looks suspiciously like BFL's FPGA Singles.

But if it is a real reuse of an existing ASIC chip then I presume that the chip was designed to accelerate IPsec VPNs:

Same image is found at the bottom of this page: http://bitcoinminer.com/page/2

I'm not sure what's trying to be pulled here, but more information is definitely warranted.

I can only agree.. I checked google streetview at the address they give, doesn't seem like there is any IntraTech there.

Maybe I'm not too familiar with Bitmit, but what's the purpose of escrow? Wouldn't it hurt their chance of scamming?

Totally reliabelz.

On another note, sup with the 4x shipping costs "worldwide" (including US)? Come on guys, you want to scam Americans, at least get our hopes up with cheap shipping costs.

Good Q about escrow, I was wondering that myself.

If this company exist "IntraTech Montreal" they have the worst marketing department ever. Google does not show anything for them.

Also worst product name Aerius X1

LOL.

I'm not saying that I'm going to buy any, but if it is escrow'ed through Bitmit (which is a pretty reputable site imo), then it seems pretty low risk as long as you don't release the escrow'ed funds.

Post by: MKEGuy on December 09, 2012, 05:17:40 AM
I would be willing to bet that this turns out to be a joke.  Why in the world would they use pictures of a competitors product.  According to them they need 300 order to even start production.  Even if you are already manufacturing ASIC products you can't tell me you are going to sell something without ever making a prototype.  It just doesn't make any sense!  Especially when you have never been part of the segment.  Even if it's not a scam because of the escrow it's a hard troll at the minimum.

Quite weird again.
There is also a picture here of supposed Raoul Beaupré ( 26 years old ?):

There is also a building pictured there, if you magnify streetview picture, the number is 1680. I don't know how it is in Canada, but in Europe even and odd street numbers are not, usually, on same side of a street.

True, although I don't think that anyone has purchased, there is also mtgox payments.

Furthermore, it is ridiculous to put a fixed and unique address to pay ... it is impossible link a payment received with the customer.
