Newbie here as well... Glad I found this post... Thx everyone who provided input. I decide to reach out to one of these folks... He confirmed he's not associated. I guess this is the negative side of bitcoin mining... Lots of scamming and paying with BTC, you're exposed. Cause it's not like you can call your credit card company and reverse the transaction. Little bit bummed as I was hoping to buy a few cause it seemed like a good deal, but a few things seemed off. Keep on searching I guess.
