[EDU] List of Bitcoin Scam Sites

[minifrij]

This thread has been retired. You can see the new thread by OmegaStarScream here.


Notice:
I have removed any obvious ponzi sites (E.G "Double your bitcoins in 2 days") from the list and they will not be added; everyone should already know to avoid these and adding them will only unnecessarily inflate this list. Faucets will also not be added to this list.

When reporting, please be sure not to include http:// in the URL, simply [domain].[ext].

When you suggest adding a site to the OP, you shouldn't use "http://" as this will create a backlink and will improve the sites rankings on google (and other search engines).

In addition, when reporting please include some type of reference. I am not going to add a site to this list just because you tell me to.

Thanks.  Perhaps we can get this thing stickied?

Shouldn't we add Cryptsy ? I mean it's confirmed they are a total scam and the two billion thread out there can proof it .

Added to the list with a link to the thread about the bankruptcy. If people want any other threads linked then please post them.

add shapeshit.io

It would be nicer of you would keep the list in alphabetically sorted order. Much easy to navigate. I think tomatocage had maintained the same order.

He had and I hadn't noticed since then. I've put the newly added sites in alphabetical order. Thanks.

[mexxer-2]

Awesome, thread seems to have been stickied.

[DaddyMonsi]

Edited: How about adding this one mmmoffice.com
That is the ever popular ponzi of Sergey Mavrodi, they just cancelled all pending withdrawal's because they can't pay or assign to anyone who plan's to put money in.

I've added it to the OP with the MMM wikipedia article as the reference. If anyone has a better URL for the reference I can update it.

I've also removed bitcoinminerz.com from the Pending list since the domain is now parked and not active.

[lubah]

please add http://btcto.money - scam site - scumbags

[mexxer-2]

please add btcto.money - scam site - scumbags

Reference( a scam accusation against them) ?  And for the second time:

Awesome, thread seems to have been stickied.

Thank you theymos!

It was most likely the Section mod, I'd go with Cyrus.

[minifrij]

please add btcto.money - scam site - scumbags

I'll add it to pending, since right now it does seem a bit suspect in my opinion (To PayPal, 0.5BTC minimum). If you can provide a scam accusation thread I will move it to the main list.

It was most likely the Section mod, I'd go with Cyrus.

I sent theymos a PM requesting it to be stickied the night prior, so that is why I went with theymos. If I am wrong, then thank you to the corresponding staff member!

I'm not related to Bitgold to anyway however I wanted to say that you may want to investigate more in their case , because there is a lot of people who are getting paid for them (I'm one of those people) and I always get paid for my referrals .
People who gets their account banned or funds frozen or something most of the time it's because they are abusing the referral system or carding or something .
So I'd suggest making a thread on Service Discussion and asking about the service once again and see ... (I can do that).

I second that, have used BG once and had no issues at all. Got my referral earnings, "first-time bonus" and have succesfully exchanged it with fullypak. Most of the people complaining are either ref spammer(alt account creators) or carders, if OP does want to keep them however, Pending would be more suitable
