IP Address    45.133.200.3 - 803 other sites hosted on this server

Other fake websites within that IP adress range:

Code:

http://www.synthetix.us/
http://www.neoproject.us/

That ip address range is a cesspool of malicious websites, all intent of really scamming not just crypto enthusiast but all over the world. Very dangerous if someone a newbie stumble that site through social media or just using Google to search for those websites. Good find.
