I can see the website, no need to DDOS. Anyone dumb enough to send money to people who can't spell and who put up a pic of a router next to a shit mouse and 5 year old iPod as 'proof' deserves to loose their money tbh.

Lose.

Loose is the opposite of tight, or restrictive.

Obviously he was saying that the person was being too "loose" with their BTC Smiley

Posted this on the scam-thread as well:

Just got an e-mail from them ( <sales@asic-technologies.com> ), which promptly got sent to SPAM folder by GMail. They either got my e-mail off the forum profile or they are mass-sending, hoping to hit active miners. In the e-mail they state the price in BTC, while the web-site states it in dollars. Still, $3000 for ~9GHs is a bit steep. BFL offers 50GHs for "just" $2500  Roll Eyes

i live fairly locally and asked for a f2f demo - (un)surprisingly, they never replied. They had replied to previous emails so i know the acc was active.

cheekily, i had asked about the adsl modem pics." BCT isnt somewhere we take serious " . nothing like alienating your customer base (unless of course you are a'n alledged' scammer)

I'd say the good thing about these is that the price is so far north of ridiculous that not many would get caught up in it.

9Gh for $3k really?

I honestly don't see where the concern is: http://www.asic-technologies.com/aboutus/

We deiced to start ordering more parts.

Can one person here prove to me that they ARE NOT deiced to start ordering more parts?

My only regret is that I didn't get an early queue position, assuming they're queuing. If there is no queue, then yes, they are a scam. If they are offering up queuing positions, then I'm on the fence.

Here is some information about us and the story behind asic-technologies.com

I love their story. So open and warm and...wait for it...full of bullshit.

simply googled the company name,and the facebook page had the same name and address of the whois entry for their website. he also mentions asictech and how he makes miners, so im pretty sure its the same fellow. The granton area of edinburgh is hardly the nicest, exactly the kind of place youd find guys selling 1990s adsl modems as hitech.

EDIT: Just to clear up, we are talking about scotland (in summer), so deiced'ing may well be a factor before ordering
