Scam
Probably a scam, yes. But, have you seen the hashrate drop since august 25 (in the Ethereum mining) ? Is there an increase beacause a new farm is on, or because a new gap is permitted with the hardware (and not AMD RX or VEGA : they are out for Ethereum) ?

Encrypted no, signed yes. While you could still force Windows to load unsigned drivers that's a bad idea - especially since this "offer" smells like scam from a mile away.

I got the same response like here;
Hello, We put a lot of time and work into modding the newest nvidia gtx driver. We currently have a special offer because we sold over 50 packages during last week between a price range of 6-100ETH . If you send 1.5 ETH until tomorrow you get all 3 drivers at least 1 hour after transaction Thank you and have a nice day.
No proof that's gonna be work.

If my 1070's did 58 vs 29 mh why would I sell the drivers?
I would not plain and simple. I would mine and make money that way.

An OTS 1080ti with a +600 mem overclock can touch 38.
1) If such a patch existed, you would think it would have to apply across most of the product line. So why not patch 1080 ti's instead?
2) The buyer has no idea whether some sort of insane overclock is required and therefore what kind of cooling is required. I'm not sure how useful the "Arctic Circle" variant of any card would be. A further question at this performance level is, what part of the card is getting stressed the most?
A lot of technical issues need to be addressed before even thinking of buying such a mod purchase.

A GTX 1070 is close to its theoretical limit when mining at 30-32 MH/s with tdp at 100%, sure it sounds viable someone would find a way to push it to 35 or even 40 but not by only messing with the driver and not touching the mining software.
If not a scam, perhaps try to hand out even a single copy of the driver to a reputable forum member for review?
