1  Economy / Scam Accusations / Warning about Lootbits.io on: May 25, 2019, 01:41:33 AM
Warning: It is highly likely that Lootbits.io is utilizing its users' machines resources to mine cryptocurrencies without their consent or knowledge.

I reached that conclusion based on my experience, because every time I visit that shady website my laptop works at full speed and sometimes overheats. and when I close it everything goes back to normal.

It's not my laptop. I have a decent one. and that doesn't happen with other websites. Even if I open dozens of tabs it doesn't happen. only when I visit Lootbits.io

The mining process probably gets activated when you click on the popup messages they show you whenever you do anything on their website (for example: when you claim your free gems) or perhaps it just starts automatically after you spend several minutes on their website.


Don't break your machine.
STAY AWAY FROM THAT WEBSITE!
