I would like to point out two faucets to be doubtful. They are BTCinBTC.com and BitcoBall.com. Both deleted my accounts, in which there were satoshis that could not be withdrawed due to the faucets dried out.

Now they are still operating. I suggest staying away from them.

They have a very similar design. I guess they are operated by the same guy.

@david123,

I suppose the visual design is from a faucet script. I have seen paying faucets which use the same design.



@landoffaucets,

Okay. I will do that.

The owner of these faucets contacted me few months ago to add his faucets on my list,so it is same owner of both faucets for sure.Also he have at least one more faucet in addition to these two.

Yesterday I notice that my referral link is changed on btcinbtc so I lost all referrals there,nice way for owner to not pay referral commission.This is not only case when such things happen with this script,many owners just change ref link after some time.One of them say he did not do anything and that change is happened by itself.

In any case this is very bad for users who try to promote faucets which use this script,at the end we lose all referrals.

Thanks for the warning. I checked now, and saw that my referral link was changed only one btcinbtc.com faucet. It's annoying thing, because I had some very active referrals on both faucets. I don't know is it worth to continue promote these faucets...
Maybe admin see which accounts have many refered users and decide to change ref link to pay less referral commission.
@Lucius, can you share which faucets with these script also changed ref link, because I think users need to know dishonest faucets.

Some time ago the same thing with the change of the referral link is happened on another faucet who uses the same script,and the owner say he did not do anything and he does not know why change has occurred.He is here on forum and his faucet is xoloniex.

I know that there is few more who also change referral links but I am not 100% sure,but on all faucets with this script something is wrong with referral service.One day I have almost 2000 satoshi ref payment and then 100-200 satoshi day max.

I think changes can be caused deliberately by the owners or some accident to owner database can be a cause,but this is worst thing for us who promote them,we lose referrals and income from them...

Today I noticed, that majority of faucets uses this script, including btcinbtc.com and bitcoball.com is empty and withdraw isn't available. All my refs stopped to claim from these faucets.
But what's the point to change our links if owner aren't paying anymore. Maybe it really can be issue with the script, not dishonest owner.

there are more than 2 faucets with the same scrypt and most probably owned by the same person.
I didn't searched enough but i think there are 5 faucets or more in hamsab.net faucets network .
I just logged in one of them (Platinum faucet) and is not paying instantly to faucethub anymore , when i try to withdraw, the message is :
Maintenance mode, please come back later !
I have started to promote one of these faucets, http://hamsab.net/platinum/ some time ago and strange,i have no referrals at all.

Im gonna check often this topic to see if there are more complaints and i will see if it pays otherwise after some time i will add thiese faucets to my scam list.

to bad for the design/scrypt, looks nice.

there is a topic in bitcointalk forum, i don't remember the section, about this newly scrypt to sell it, i think the owner of these faucets might be the designer of the scrypt.

So ,i would say be careful with the entire hamsab faucets network.
This would not be the first scam faucets network on internet.
There is also the russian scam faucets network with animal names, welovefaucets network, the biobtc network. All these 3 networks are not using a pay through a microwallet way.
I say lets wait maybe the faucets funds will be refilled on hamsab' faucethub acount.

Thank you for the warning @ethantaylor.

From my experience in claiming on faucets and visiting/testing hundreds of faucets, i can say that network faucets have higher probability to scam you,bann you without reason or by mistake, delete or missing referals,lack of support,etc than one single faucet owned by someone.
Also bitcoin-ptcs are more stable than faucets because they do not rely only on ad networks.

So my top safety/stability micro earning websites is :

1.Bitcoin-PTCs (99% are only one per admin) .
2. Only one faucet owned by an admin.
3. Multiple faucets  in a network owned by an admin .

When you get scammed in a form or other , by a faucet, keep in mind that there is a high probability that faucet is part of a multiple faucets network .

I use a certain ePay.info and Xapo.com faucets, and nearly all of them pay instantly.

i have joined to btcinbtc for a claim & withdraw test and i can say at the moment the faucet is paying.
Also platinum faucet from the same network is paying too.



It seems that admin have funded the account on faucethub and is still paying.
So it was a temporary problem with funding , however when the satoshi drains out people might not get paid for a while until new funds are added.
Will keep testing/claiming to watch if the payments are delayed often.
But so far these 2 faucets (from hamsab network) can't be declared scams.  Smiley

Only difference (new updates since 2 weeks ago ) so far is that the claim values and the timer has been modified.
Claim values = average increased
Timer = reduced
