Recently I received a e-mail from bitcoinalien claiming he have a secret that he used to earn bitcions. Then he shared a link to satoshibox.com stating the secret is in a file     with a fee of course. Should I believe and buy the file or not? https://i.imgur.com/fHDMDpB.png

Why are you even asking such a question; are you new to the internet? There are no ways to get a lot of money quickly. All of these are as legit as the Nigerian prince trying to transfer a few million dollars to me.  Roll Eyes

So, it's either:

- Just an utter scam designed to make you fork over some Bitcoin (convenient how it's via a payment method you're unlikely to trace to an actual identity, huh?)
- Some semi-scam where the method basically consists of day trading, but still designed to just make you fork over some easy money.

Yeah, don't even bother man. Ignore it.

This is completely regular scam on internet. They try to sell you trash with promises to get rich (Why don't they use it themselves so?)
Just remove e-mail and be relaxed.

Read many complaints here about bitcoinalien especially with their Android app (there is a topic about it somewhere)
Just neglect this email since if anyone have a good way to earn money he will keep it for himself
(lock this topic if you get the answer you are looking for)

The owner seems to be getting paid to end emails like this. Either this, or he has high referral commissions as I receive at least two eamils from him a day! It is a large, growing company and uses advertising on All of its media, of course this is a scam.

(p.s. there are ways to earn money quickly from the internet: HACKING! If you hack a faucet such as freebitco.in then youcan earn $200 or £150, quite a lot to earn per hour! (apparently this is the case, never tried it though so couldn't be sure but have seen many youtube videos where they have got money from faucets, maybe go to them!)
