This thread is to alert both the fake accelerator ( provenance.im ) and the fake testimonial creator site ( demo.divipeople.com ).

The website https://provenance.im/ - Archive [1a], [1b] 1s being advertised on the website http://www.blockcypher.com/ which uses third party advertising (and therefore is not associated with the advertisement (At least I don't think they are...)).

During my research I found that there has been a previous thread: Provenance.im - Bitcoin Transaction Accelerator Scam however, as I stated above, I uncovered the site and scam through different methods.

All merits received in the first 24 hours will go to margana who authored the above Forum thread.




Testimonial #1



https://provenance.im/img/ct1.jpeg Archive [2a], [2b]



Using the Reverse image locator site https://www.duplichecker.com/reverse-image-search.php we find that image used in the following locations:  (Bing lists over twenty sites using that image)

BING SEARCH


In all likelihood, most if not all of those testimonials were created via this website: https://demo.divipeople.com/plugins/brain-conkit/testimonial/ - Archive [5a], [5b]






Testimonial #2



Eight Bing Image search sites listed




Testimonial #3



14 websites listed by Bing Image Search

Great discovery!
And sure, the ad you see is not of http://www.blockcypher.com/, you see it is due to the recommendation of google or the browser you are using (I'm not sure this is the correct wording  Cheesy )
I have just tried entering random hashes into the site, it shows successful acceleration even when I haven't made a payment yet. Just like that is enough to make others suspect, it's a pity that someone is still deceived  Embarrassed
