Could you please explain your situation in detail please. I am sure some of the more seasoned users of this forum could offer good advice if you would take some time to explain what is going on besides...THEY ARE SCAMMERS....I WANT MY MONEY BACK!
I see they are based in the United States....might be some recourse since they are.
Good Luck! =)

Of course! Any details you may ask! Today I ordered antminer D3 with the Power supply. My order was calculated of 1604$ I chose a bitcoin payment method. And I paid them exactly their invoice sum of 0.37125 BTC through the gate CoinPayments.net. The order status changed to "processing". The support manager said they would ship my order on Tuesday. Suddenly a few hours later I received an email from them that "my order is complete" I immediately went to the site and asked the support girl why they said my order is complete if I have NOT and COULD NOT have received anything already. And from that very moment their support windows disappeared forever. And THEY TOTALLY STOPPED any further communication with me!!

I wouldn't panic just yet. I checked out there website, and they take Credit Card, so that's usually not the sign of a scammer. Just because it says "order complete" isn't a bad sign, either, it could just mean that you paid for it and they shipped it. Have you tried their "track order" link? https://bostonbtcminers.us/track-an-order/

My bitcoin address from where I made that disastrous payment is
1BVMPEsxsdz8ZqVj1HRabgB71QNQCf22ow Anyone can watch it on the BTC blockchain
If there is absolutely no way to get money back from those damn forever scammers, compassionate kind souls could bring me back to life sending any possible sums back to that address

And THAT WAS THE EXACT REASON I THOUGHT I COULD TRUST THEM, AND DECIDED TO DO THE PAYMENT!!! BUT NOW EVERYTHING LOOKS so that I WAS WRONG. THEY ARE damn scammers!! Why on earth would they stop any communication??? And why on earth did they change my order's status to "completed"

Didn't it seem suspicious that they were selling the D3 at such a low price? The first batch of D3s costed $2699 + shipping and they're claiming to ship on Tuesday? They'd be selling at over $1000 loss. You realize that the very first batch hasn't even been shipped yet, right? Nobody except a few reviewers have these yet.

I'd like to provide here an abstract from my dispute with the support desk at https://www.coinpayments.net payment gate. Here: Coinpayments.net Support..I'm sorry to hear of this trouble, but the bitcoin network is designed to make chargebacks impossible. Coinpayments never has access or control of a user's bitcoins in any way, which means only the end user has 100% control over his own bitcoins. This means we have no power to stop or reverse a transaction for you.
Me:Dear Mr Data (this is how he introduced himself to me), I know and fully understand what you say. I just cannot see ANY SLIGHTEST sense in your being as an intermediary payment processor between sellers and buyers. With the same "success" one could just pay (after intense praying) directly on any seller's website. The meaning of any payment gate (processor) is to provide a kind of PROTECTION against fraud to both buyers and sellers. You provide NO protection at all!!! The problem is NOT the crypto payments are irreversible! The problem is YOU have done nothing to be a honest reliable intermediary by, for example, holding payments in YOUR OWN temporary wallets for SOME time after deals EXACTLY to be able to resolve such disputes!!
Coinpayments.net SupportYou are thinking of an escrow service, not a payment processor. If you want to operate that way you would want to contact sellers beforehand and ask them to use our sister site SetEscrow.com for your transaction instead of a regular CoinPayments payment. Our purpose as an intermediary is to provide an easy to integrate payment system for merchants without them having to run coin daemons on their own insecure and/or more expensive servers or develop custom solutions for themselves. We also provide the feedback system to help buyer's gauge the honesty of the seller.
Me:A regular buyer cannot, and has not to, understand such nuances! And what "running coin daemons" are saying about?? ALL a seller has to do is just provide his bitcoin address ONLY!!! He doesn't have to run any "daemons"!!! Just go to site http://www.bitcoinqrcode.org/ or any similar one , and generate a picture from his address and place it in his shop near the address itself. NO daemons or wallets needed!!! A seller can create just a watching wallet to monitor his addresses and users' payments So, do NEVER consider crypto payments as trusted or more reliable, or protected in a way (like I was thinking), if a shop suggests crypto payments with a gate like that worthless useless https://www.coinpayments.net/

You purchased a product on a weekend for one. Not many shops stay open 24/7. Wait until Monday, then try to contact them. And I'm not even going to touch the conversation with the payment processor.

I so much wanted to hope the damn shop was not a scammer! But look into the topic with the continuation (see link above), even the crypto payment processor has already closed the scammer's account at their service due to customer complaints

It looks like the site takes credit cards. That offers a bit more protection than sending a BTC payment. Besides... it's 2:20AM in Boston (if that's truly where they are located)... they are asleep. Contact them in about 6 hours and check on your order.

The scammers are always available to new victims! I have just tried to communicate with them! When they think I am a new customer then are happy to respond, but when they realize I am asking about my real order they either do not respond at all OR say "we are busy now , send us email".. Try it yourself if you have some free time, here the DAMN SCAMMERS are: https://bostonbtcminers.us/

we too have been shafted in the last 3 days for a substantial amount. When you become insistent on their support window, it disappears specially last I told them thatI was going to their supposed office in Boston. My advice is to stay away. They are pretty glib. Good luck.

Here is what a user emailed me about those damn dirty scammers a couple of days ago: .... Their page footer says, "Boston Hardware Inc." - which is actually a tiny Mom & Pop hardware store in Boston. I called them and let them know. They were wondering why people were calling them looking for "computer stuff". This scam has been using Google AdWords for about a week when you type in "Antminer D3 in stock".
Here is a list of the domain names they are using. Also, their Bitmain product descriptions are either mirrored or cut and pasted onto their website. They've messed with the domain registry to make it look like they are owned by Bitmain - with the full on Bitmain Chinese address - but with a fake email address.
bostonhardware.us bostonltcminer.us bostonbtcminers.us bostonelectronic.us boston-electronics.us
In the "About Us" page, they say they are the "Brooklyn Store" - but when you google that name with antminer - all those domains are shut down...

Their address is a parking garage in Boston. Their phone number is a disconnected Verizon cell phone number. However, I've placed a test order using BTC - risking about $140.
I ordered an Antminer R1-LTC. It is the cheapest item in their website. The router was $90, but when you go to the checkout - they charge $43 for SHIPPING!! LOL. Oh well, I'd rather lose out on $140 - than lose $2,000. Plus, I'll be able to report to my fellow coiners if they do not deliver. Then, I can spread the results across all my websites - along with the domain name & administrator's name & contact info.
Stay tuned!!
