Title: Does anyone have any idea who runs this site?

http://bitcomax.com (http://bitcomax.com)

I found it today and judging by the spelling mistakes and the rate of return it looks like a scam....

Well of course it's a scam... a ponzi scam.

Reference to talkgold, moneymakergroup and co... yes, this is a hyip.

Don't worry, there's plenty of it out there. I take that mentioning bitcoin as their "business model" is a sign that bitcoin is getting traction :D

Bitcoinmax is ran by payb.tc whose is a long standing member the community.  It is a PPT.

There is a thread here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=83904.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=83904.0)

I we guess that the spelling errors are due to how quickly the site went up.

Whoisguard is a product from Namecheap that obfuscates registrant details. So the similarities only imply that they are both registered by Namecheap.
