Another one, which looks quite similar to others mentioned here: bitcoin-hardware.nl

Correct. Also a new one: http://bestandfirst.com

All those sites belong to the same scammers.

How do we know? Check this out: https://www.google.com/#filter=0&q=%22Q+Why+Bitcoins%3F+A.+We+believe+in+the+future+of+Bitcoins.%22&qscrl=1  Wink

I'm wondering if there is a system that can block a Bitcoin address? (Blockchain blacklist)

If for example, 100 bad report to community... so that no one can use the address to get BTC or to send BTC, sort of BTC black list ?

they would just change the address. and freezing an address so that the owner can't retrieve his coins goes against the whole decentralized concept of bitcoin. It would require a central bank or institution, which would have the power to freeze accounts. Governments would love it.

Hard to say if it's the same scammer. That site has a lot more grammar mistakes.

What about that 7-day trial? https://asicminersoft.com/free-7-days-trial/
Someone brave enough to try it out?

Alright, so asic-tech.com is offline and asic-technologies.com redirects to asictech.info

asictech.info is registered to a gentleman named Mark Niggerson.

According to http://whois.domaintools.com/asictech.info his email-address asictechcontact@gmail.com is associated with one other domain, registered with ENOM INC. (http://reversewhois.domaintools.com/?email=edebdaaedc11e59662fdd65aca241145).

Someone mentioned asic-market.com being the same person as asic-tech.com, and asic-market.com is also registered with ENOM, but with a protected email-address.

domaintools.com only tells us about that second domain in this form: a _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ s.com
Both domains were created on Dec, 7th.

By guessing I found asic-markets.com (http://whois.domaintools.com/asic-markets.com) which right now is a fresh wordpress installation without content. But I'm sure it's just a backup domain, in case asic-market.com gets taken down.

His other email-address "more.coffeeee@gmail.com" is also registered with two domains: http://reversewhois.domaintools.com/?email=e205cc57c802e2fab93aa75b7499df90
asic-tech.com, created Nov. 22nd, and a _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ e.net, created June 21st. Both registered with ENOM again.

According to http://who.is/domain-history/asic-technologies.com his older domain asic-technologies.com was also registered with more.coffeeee@gmail.com up until yesterday it seems. Now it's privacy protected.

I tried guessing what "a _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ e.net" could be, I suppose it starts with asic, but then what? machine? service? .... then I found it: asic-online.net
http://whois.domaintools.com/asic-online.net

The Domain itself is offline by now (or taken down), but a quick google search got me this: http://www.kde.ps.pl/dsk0/ftp.ietf.org/ietf-mail-archive/krb-wg/2013-06.mail and this: http://oss.sgi.com/cgi-bin/extract-mesg.cgi?a=pcp&m=2013-06&i=c2e6c0d106b4f6438f8858dd593253ac%40asic-technologies.com

Seems like he was sending some spam mails in June.

Then there's this topic from May: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=201024.0
Again spam, with the following return addresses:
sales@xrumer-linkslist.com
me@edinburgh-makeupartist.com
sales@blackhat-proxies.com

A quick check for those domains shows, that they are again registered to Scott Davie from Edinburgh.

But that's it, couldn't find more.

So in the end I got nothing much, sorry. Maybe it helps nonetheless.

GPU mining alt coins is very profitable right now. There is a crazy increase in GPU mining again. Reminds me of earlier this year.

Thanks! Good to know that not all hope is lost.

I thought GPU mining died with the rise of ASIC miners. Is it still profitable?
