*** Foxminers LLC If someone buys this miner without a well-known and trusted Forum User 1st getting one for doing a review and posting it here then well, you have been warned ***Since this is based on a rip-off of the SF100 and the SFARADS thread is still active may I present https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=985400.msg10735871#msg10735871 Dated Feb. 11, 2015 Would be funny to see how Foxminers explains that.... At least some SF100's were actually built and seems at least 2-3 are still around. As for As obviously they could have damaged reputation of the Sack Rosendin by claiming he's representing them. Isn't that also unlawful ( i mean to falsely claim someone is representing them )?
I would think that as part of due-diligence that the law firm would follow up on this by issuing a real C&D -- against Foxminers LLC Edited for better SEO

I just can't believe that these scams keep happening over and over again, and there feels to be hard time for some people believing that this is a scam.
I'm just so tired with newbie, no background checking -people losing money and shitty scammers getting away with the scam all over again and again and again...

*** If someone buys this miner from Foxminer LLC without a well-known and trusted Forum User 1st getting one for doing a review and posting it here then well, you have been warned ***<snip> So, I suppose I can understand why you guys are being so ... whatever offends you least to this new guy as I have seen my share of presale scams and vanishing funds from startups in other industries too. <snip>
So glad you saw the light Ja, there is little tolerance here for folks who may even unwittingly defend or help scams. Just be glad the *real* scam buster folks here did not pick up on this! They tend to foam at the mouth a lot, go offensively nuclear and really rip into folks. At least we were fairly civil about it. Blunt, sarcastic, and definitely giving no ground, but civil. Thanks for the reply. I'm over it. I was incapable of researching the background fully here so I should have just watched. I used to spend a lot of time at a forum where the side game was getting noobs to rage quit. Hilarious place, but proper ladies didn't much care for it to say the least.

*** Foxminers LLC If someone buys this miner without a well-known and trusted Forum User 1st getting one for doing a review and posting it here then well, you have been warned ***Oh good grief -- they are pitching even bigger systems per this page on the Wayback dated yesterday the 23rd https://web-beta.archive.org/web/20170423212932/https://foxminers.com/products/Bitcoin(375 TH/s) & Litecoin(10.5 GH/s) $22500.00 $19000.00 Wonder who's miners are in that no doubt stolen picture they used? For reference, using a nice round 13THs each it takes 28.8 s9's to = 375THs. Edit: ROFL gotta love their FAQ #4 aslo on Wayback https://web-beta.archive.org/web/20170423212944/https://foxminers.com/faq/ Actually, looks like the whole site might be archived. Nice for future reference eh? 04. Do you accept PayPal or Credit Cards? Unfortunatly we don’t accept PayPal or Credit Cards, due to frequently occurring fraud practices.
Um, ya. Theirs. Bet they got a few giggle writing that one... Emphasis is mine of course. Made sure entire site is archived at Wayback for posterity

They wouldn't even be able to see who paid for an order since it's all done client side in javascript. Look at what somebody just sent me: Please pay to the fallowing address within 5 hours : 14D5P69iXdKJeav4icao6Sw2FioqLq9avC
Amount : 23.01 BTC ( 30.000 USD )
We need the products you wish to buy and please complete the form so we can have your address for delivery .
Or replay to this email with Full name, Full Address,Phone Numer, so we know where to send the products and to build the invoice after payment .
Regards,
Jonathan F. Operator at Sales Department +1 408-877-8345 +1 408-877-8362 FoxMiners LLC. In California it's a common practice for the locals to express $30,000 as 30.000 USD. My guess is that Jonathan partook too much of his medical marijuana when he penned the reply, hence littered with grammatical errors.

I went to the address that is registered to the LLC. The address in their footer is most likely a dummy address of some empty offices. EDIT: Also, Gleb you know that Johnathan F. is a made up name. The guy already pretended to be a lawyer and a marketer. Ya think hes gonna sign with his real name?

Yea... looks like horse shit to me too Just did a quick icann whois search and even though all info on their website = USA, the domain is registered to a PO BOX in Queensland, Australia... Sniff sniff.... ewwwwwwww 1. Pre-orders are 99% scams until proven otherwise. 2. PO Box is a dead giveaway. When crap hits the fan, your lawyers will send their letters of demand to a PO Box?

So when I Google "Jonathan F." and found a dude by the same name using Kraken, that's probably not the case? Seriously, I knew that wasn't his real name from the get-go. It was by conducting blockchain forensic as to how I discovered that Kraken was used to process payments already made to Foxminers by Investards.

Excellent review and investigation Can you say something similar about the company UFOMINERS? from Las Vegas? Are they scam or not? Since he contacted them and paid 20 BTC for the equipment. Track code dosih has not yet been received on the parcel, and the company itself once a week reports that it will be soon and the parcel will be at the customs in my country, and so it's almost a month instead of the promised 5 days. There is a feeling that FOXMINERS is the reincarnation of the previous UFOMINERS because the subject matter of the sites is very similar. It remains to only verify the number of purses for payment in the blockchain BTC. Thank you for attention. UFOMINERS was a scam from day one.
