When he didn't post the pics of the miner, I knew he was scamming.

I think he smoked too much weed.

I'll give it to minewithmind ... he took his sweet time to make this scam work...

But karma is a bitch!

How does this affect my life? I am not sure about this. I live to work, socially I do not have a wide network. I'd like to leave a tear and scream, but will this help? I just realised that I have just lost €11255,-. Money that I, one day wanted to use to buy a house, put it into a morgage. Now, thats obliterated.

Dude.. why put your life saving (house money etc) into BTC? Its crazy to do it.. just use money that you are willing to depart with and never see again.

I , last sunday was the first payout.
Untill now it seems to me that this not a scam, but I can only say this for sure when I made a return on my investmen.
 

That is where the Ponzi scheme comes in. He made big bucks with the funding people gave him. So now he dishes out some out to people, to attract more clients, gets more money (repeat x10). And then he disappears with huge sum of bitcoins.

Game over for all.

That is why he hasn't posted any pics/videos, because there is nothing. He is giving away some funding money to get more people...

Paying out some dividends at the start is how a Ponzi scheme is ran... Why has he not bother to post a picture of the miner running with his name on a piece of paper in the picture... That would at least prove there is a miner... Then after selling more shares than he said he would, not much incentive for him to run this miner after he sells off all the shares? After the last scam here a week ago which a lot of us tried to warn people about the ones that got scammed started crying why they were not warned about it? So that is why I keep after this guy to prove something other than paying out a Ponzi type divy which does not prove anything to me.

Edit: and that is why tomatocage gave a negative trust to warn people. That is why this guy got so upset about it. It was to warn all the newbies that are jumping on without knowing better. But at least some of us can say we tried to warn you when this all falls apart soon.

Agreed 100%. This is a Ponzi scam.

No pics with his name is such huge warning sign, it's not even funny.

I wanted to invest with him, but seeing him avoiding the pic screams scam/Ponzi scheme.

So their website went down  Undecided. There goes our money.

Just very happy I'm out $70... and not more. Sorry for everyone that invested more...

Edit : I would love to know how much they made in 2 months. By the sounds of it, freaking  $100k + easily.

Me and my friends made an order together for 650ghs on 11.january, so first bitcoins should arrived to my wallet next week Smiley

I changed some emails with "BRIAN", and he was quite polite and english was also pretty good.
I asked him, why they keep coins so long, why they dont offer at least a weekly pay out, but his answers were diplomatic.
The price per ghs was extremely good - i was thinking, that the reason for that is, they have a possibility to sell them via MtGox for very good prices and then buy another via bitstamp or so + if they manufacture the HW, the cost of machines are much lower, than BFL or KNC.. I dont know why i was so greedy and stupid..

After 2weeks, my good friend called me - Hey they changed their contracts, 1ths+ contract have wekkly pay out scheme, WE HAVE TO order one..
I was very surprised and lucky, but i had also bad feel from ordering another power from them  -especially when we didnt received coins from first contract..
Unfortunatlly, after few days, i agreed with his proposal and ordered another 1ths contract for 2250usd -- 50/50 Me/friend. I paid in BTC of course..

Now, i found this topic.. :-/

+ i lost 1.49btc, which i sent from my Multibit wallet to another personal wallet, so hell yeah - good days for me in bitcoin field :-/.

Btw - let these mothf----- down!

PeeT

ALmost fell for the 1Ths weekly pay scam. But no way I'm handing USD 2000+ over on the web without knowing a company at all.

Yea.. I got owned for USD 70. I tested the waters first (it looked too good to be true). I thought what the hell.. let's rip Cheesy

I would never give a unknown company with no track record more than that (70 was too much in any case).

Supposedly pay out is 30 days after contract was activated, so in 5 days time I'm suppose to get payment. I'm not getting my hopes up, but lets see.


But I see a scammers paradise with bitcoin mining. You can make insane amount of bitcoin with little repucation.  Post a few group buys or just fake website, decent prices and voila. Easy bitcoins.


edit: Reading about the change in banking details (or not accepting all of a sudden) tells me it's 100% scam.
