Aurora is a cloud mining service that offers 10% per day and cash back after ten days. It is crazy but it seems to run well at this time. Many people put a lot of money into that. It is clearly a ponzi scheme. It is 10 days old untill now But I want to know What might happen in next days? As im new to this so pls someone explain me what might happen to this kind of service? Thanks in advance

Like this: They will pay a few people and then stop paying. Next the site will be down. Then your money is gone.

Clearly a Ponzi scheme, like many others with such ROI. Most probably you'll be able to request a withdrawal, but it will never be completed and the support won't answer your mails. Then after a while the website will be closed and you'll never see your money back.

I still can't believe people ask such stupid questions and people get fooled with these so called mining offerings. The question you asked about the site is a really old method when btc wasn't as famous as it is today people used to invest in these they are know as ponzi schemes. Nowadays the problem is many don't fall for it so even if 100 investors invest they don't repay they simply walk away with the money.

Without a doubt that this is just another ponzi.
What you can try is to cash out when you have that opportunity but you shouldn't expect your money. And the golden tip that I will give you is not to invest in it.

Its 100% a scam Ponzi site. Just imagine who will give you that much money for doing nothing. For first few days they will pay all the investors their profits. It will help the site to gain trust from the bitcoin community. After that investors invest hugh amounts of money thinking its a legit site. When the site admin gets enough deposits from investors, the site will go offline. This is what usually happens. I already have experience with 3 such sites.

Somebody tell us which of today existing hardware is capable of 10 days ROI, let’s say at zero electricity cost.

The fact that the withdraw function went up is because it's in BTC and the BTC price went up, so that has nothing to do with the possible scam they are running... I invested 0.10BTC in it 11 days ago, and at this time I've been able to withdraw the whole 0.11BTC I "earned" up until now by withdrawing every 24hours, meaning I'm up 0.01BTC atm... Tomorrow it will be 0.02...

So ponzi or not, I got my money back in 10 days and everything I get from now on is extra. (I'm planning to reinvest earnings every 3 days, while withdrawing the other 2, so no more actual money of mine will go in, and even if it goes offline right now, I would have only gained from it.) Don't get me wrong, though, I don't wish it upon anyone to be at the end of a ponzi scheme, but at least I'm glad if it was a ponzi, I was high enough in the pyramid to have gained from it this time. Smiley

The site shows how much it has payed out to date, but it also shows the total bought hashpower thus far. If you calculate the cost of the bought hashpower, it ends somewhere over 1000BTC, but as we speak it has only paid out ~205BTC. As long as people keep buying with externally sent BTC, the site will have more BTC incoming than outgoing, but once that diminishes and the number of people just cashing out rises over the new-bloods, the paid-out amount will grow bigger than the paid amount for hashpower. Somewhere before that happens, the site will probably go offline and disappear... If it ever doesn't stop and continues to work after that time, the site has to be legit at least to some degree, though, since otherwise it's just handing out free money... Nobody does that... Grin

You could still risk riding along with the ponzi and hoping you still are high enough in the pyramid to make it past the 10 days, but it's a risk none-the-less. The site could be there for weeks to come, but can also magically evaporate tomorrow... That choice isn't anything different from any other gamble, though, so it's up to you what you can miss and if you can risk it. Wink

Anyway, I'm just glad my 10 days of stress are over and all that remains for me is just waiting for the ship to go down, only to see if it does or not... :p

The return of investment is too good to be true, clearly this is a ponzi scheme. Like other ponzi schemes they'll pay you at the start maybe they'll keep doing it til 2 to 3 months until they gain huge popularity and people will be lured to invest to their ponzi scheme then after lots of people invested they will disappear.

No it's not a scam, just sign up your account @ https://www.auroramine.com/?ref=250092

If you're scared, you do not have to deposit any money at first, just like the BTC rolls in!!

I monitor the available hash power at 900.000PH/S which doesn't move at all even though the power in use keeps on climbing Smiley
One more thing this will become a ponzi scheme is just imagine the lifetime hashing(no end-contract), no maintenance fees which is too good to be true on actual mining if they have one actually mining for you. Smiley

You really are clueless. None of those stats are genuine - there is no mining equipment/hashpower. This is clearly a Ponzi/HYIP, and even though you may have made a little profit from the site, the same will not be true for the majority of people that "invest" in this place. For you to earn 0.01 BTC, someone else needs to have lost at least that.

You are clearly advocating that people invest money into this Ponzi scheme, you even decided to make some extra cash yourself and add a referal code. Well done you /s.

You should both be disgusted with yourselves.

people should know better than enabling it to scam people of their (hard earned?) money

Hard earned USD $5 for a chance of return?

1. I think the payout rate is better than any lotto!
2. I mean... USD $5... can't even buy you a foot-long sub

You are clearly advocating that people invest money into this Ponzi scheme, you even decided to make some extra cash yourself and add a referal code. Well done you /s.

You should both be disgusted with yourselves.

If you know the risk and you're only risking USD $5 WHAT IS THE BIG DEAL?
I really don't understand!

So by your theory, people should not buy lottery ticket!

I cannot believe you could give me an untrust vote like that!

There is a major difference between purchasing a lottery ticket and "investing" in a Ponzi scheme.

The big deal is that you are advocating people put money into this site when the large majority will never see their money again. Secondly, you are directly trying to profit from someone else being scammed. That is what the negative rating is for. Any person shilling for a HYIP is not trustworthy in my eyes.

Think before you write. What you're saying is not correct.
The expected payout of a lottery is negative, so is participating in a hyip.

Whatever it is, I did mention KNOWING YOUR RISK and HAVE FUN.
This is what everything is about!

Okay, I have thought about it. I still don't agree with you.

I'm not going to continue trying to argue the difference between purchasing a lottery ticket and investing in a Ponzi scheme. You fail to see how your argument is flawed.

This has nothing to do with having fun. You are trying to profit from others losses, you even stuck your own referal link for the site in your posts. If you want to risk your OWN money on a HYIP,  that's your choice. Just don't try get others to do the same so you can make money off of it. It's immoral. And worthy of a negative rating.

Its too good ro be true. How will they even make profit if they'll pay that big percentage of your deposit? Take the money from the new investors!

Sooner or later, when they get enough money. They'll stop paying and run away with your money.

Someone obviously used bots to increase the view counts of this thread or people are simpleton idiots Cheesy no offense. are you that desperate to believe in the oldest scam trick in crypto? overall 3 noob accounts said something good about it, even if half the forum members tell you this cloud scam mining is legit you should use your brain. If a clown says: Arabian golf, you should know that it was is and will be always the Persian gulf, this is how they change fake history with the real one. ISIS defeated but immediately Kurdistan came to play their ball, going war with Iraq. Cheesy too much off topic derailing the thread so people start to see things clearly.

I came here to check b/c someone is pushing it in the TrollBox on HitBTC.
Said, "How do you know it's a scam. Look at the website and tell me in 3 minutes."
I gave it 30 seconds. "It's not a Scam. It's a Ponzi."
"I got my investment back already."

Cool. Come here to see you saying the Site has only been in Operation since Oct. 6... Well, that's 9 days. Either way...

Nobody asks themselves, "If this business is up, running and mining... Why do they need my money? How will my paying them, incentivize them to pay me? They make money just mining for fucks sake."

You really are clueless. None of those stats are genuine - there is no mining equipment/hashpower. This is clearly a Ponzi/HYIP, and even though you may have made a little profit from the site, the same will not be true for the majority of people that "invest" in this place.

Strange, I feel like that was exactly my point, but in much more words, yet you act like I'm the one who makes these websites. I'm totally not pro such sites, nor am I condoling Ponzi schemes. If you read the whole post, you'd actually see I'm clearly saying it probably is a Ponzi scheme, that if you choose to still join it now, you will have a chance you will lose your money and that I'm glad it's my first time I'm not one of the lower parts of the pyramid that lost money. Nice for a change and all that...

I've placed my bet at these sites before and wasn't going to 'invest' in any cloudmining ever again, since every time I have done this in the past, it went offline before my original investment was returned... Or so I said last time anyway, because eventually, it just itched and I gambled it on AuroraMine. Every last bit of Satoshi I 'invested' is Satoshi I still had left from CPU-mining way back at the start of bitcoin, though, so to be completely honest: I never actually gave any real money to it, I only gambled the potential for money I could have had extra, which makes it less hard should I lose it, if you ask me. Every person should decide if the risk is worth it for themselves.

Me, I invested on day 4, so...
http://ncoin.ggtm.eu/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/AuroraMine-16-oct-2017-2.png
And this is no suggestion as to what others should do, nor is it any assurance of 10 more days. For all I know it could go offline tonight, tomorrow, next month or next year. My guess is it'll probably be rather one of the first three, but you never know. (One can always dream... :p)

For you to earn 0.01 BTC, someone else needs to have lost at least that.

Yeah, you know, like with any sort of gambling, because that's what this is right now: a gamble if it stays online for 10 more days or not. If you win, you win money others have lost, if you lose, you lost money to the winners,... This is because value does not magically appear out of thin air, but needs to go from point A to point B. Wink

You are clearly advocating that people invest money into this Ponzi scheme, you even decided to make some extra cash yourself and add a referal code. Well done you /s.

What's wrong with a referral? It's not like it takes the gained power from the new user. The new user will have had the same with or without a referral, the extras that go to the higher affiliate are coming from the service for bringing in paying customers, not unlike some real-life and web-shops do too... I know clothing stores where I'd get 20% off my clothing if I bring in a new frequent client. That doesn't mean the new client would have to pay 20% more because of it.
Strange how this is fully acceptable to most people, but suddenly not anymore when bitcoin enters the stage. Cheesy

On that note: https://www.auroramine.com/?ref=29650 ;p

You should both be disgusted with yourselves.

Because you didn't even bother to fully read what I said and went on a rant anyway? :p

Look, I understand your annoyance with these Ponzi schemes and the fact that they lie about cloudmining and facilities full of miningrigs to get people to join while not knowing they are actually gambling with that money is shameful, to say the least, but my point is that once you know it's a Ponzi scheme, 'investing' in it isn't any different as gambling on anything else: In the end someone is going to walk away with money of another and all would(read: should) know this as a possibility before they join in. That's also what these forums are for, imho, to get that information out to the masses.

In short: Totally agree that people should know this is a Ponzi or Pyramid scheme from the start, but after that, I think you shouldn't condemn people to still want to risk it and let everyone be able to do what they choose and want. I guess it's the age-old discussion about: "If everyone has cheats, isn't then the game fair again?"

P.S.: I still even wonder if any such technology exists that can mine continuously (and seemingly steady) at such low cost ($5 spend for $15/month returned as they offer), while still making profit out of it themselves... I mean, if that actually existed, wouldn't it be better to just go get such devices for home use rather than trusting random anonymous internet-companies that wrote somewhere on a webpage that they will do it for you if you send them money? Cheesy If this is not a Ponzi, it is clearly magic. ;p

A ponzi is a ponzi.  Technically speaking, if you joined it early enough then you MIGHT actually make your investment back (plus profit) before all the money runs out.  If they are serious then they will give the impression of being a proper money making scheme, at least to begin with.  Back when cloudmining was new I invested in PiggyBackMining and I almost got all my money back before it folded.  If I had invested a month or two earlier I would have gone into profit.  As NDA says, its a gamble in its own right.

This is the best ponzi scheme ever - auroramine just now made mistakes (?) and paid me twice. Crazy! I also received 0.007BTC out of nowhere  Shocked  for free (!) which I had no idea where it came from at all ! (but I'm sure it's related to auroramine because of the address). AT first I didn't believe that but after investigation it was true and I was so happy when I saw that! What a day. Crazy aurora mine!

I came across this aurora thing, and indeed it is too good to be true.
So I searched a little bit and I found the image of their CTO, allegedly named Nicole Whitehouse, on another website with another name.
Check them both:
  • Nicole Whitehouse on auroramine: https://www.auroramine.com/
  • And Malin, a CSO on bluesteps: https[Suspicious link removed]cutive-jobs/cso


So regardless if they are paying at the beginning or not. It is definitely a big scam.
It is best for you not to be greedy and to invest your money in good legit investments.
No sane person will put his money in something knowing that it is a scam.

A month ago few of the sites came alive that were like that, invest 1 LTC and get 1 LTC pro day. They pay you at the beggining when you want to withdraw 0.03 what is minimum, but when you acumulate 1LTC they put your transaction on 'pending' for '10' days but actually forever and claim that if you don't want to wait 10 days you should upgrade to another tier. I think it was 'pay 5 ltc, get 5ltc a day back.'

No aurora mining is not like that. There are youtube videos which show users already earning more than they invested in with fund withdrawal proof.
Also, the number of new joiners is growing exponentially which makes it relative safe right now.

Of course, join the party at your own risk. You could lose all you put in. Otherwise, enjoy!

you know that auroramine is clearly a cloud mining hyip so, investing to that site will taking you a risk to run your money. yes they will pay you as long as people register and deposited to that site, but in long term when the site have no customer deposits they will run due to lack of funds and scam you so, it's better to stay away to that site.

Aurora is a cloud mining service that offers 10% per day and cash back after ten days. It is crazy but it seems to run well at this time. Many people put a lot of money into that. It is clearly a ponzi scheme. It is 10 days old untill now But I want to know What might happen in next days? As im new to this so pls someone explain me what might happen to this kind of service? Thanks in advance

It is a clear and simple case of ponzi scheme or what we commonly know as HYIP. They usually offer a very high interest on your invested amount. They will initially pay for few days but eventually run out with the majority of your investment. Think logically, what can be their source of income which generates 10% profit per day in real world scenario? There is non! So stay away from such programs and never invest a single penny in such websites.

Stay away!

I "invested" 10 USD just cos of curiosity.
So few hours ago I made a withdrawal, as you can see below no Tx was given - my balance got reset to 0.00, but no transaction was made LOL
Of course they don't respond to emails.

SCAAAAAAAAAM  Grin



Check your wallet.

This happened to me two times:

1.  I still received my money
2.  I received DOUBLE the amount of money   Grin  LOL


GTFO  Angry
If there's no Tx, the transaction did not occur.
Ofcrs I checked my wallet, ofcrs nothings there...


this happened to me as well. can someone can tell us here if there is a chance that I can still receive my money?



Check your BTC account after 1 day.

There are newer just like sites, I checked and got their email answer, they also have their twitter account.

~snip~ (8 days live)

~snip~ (3 days live)

(yes, it's my ref link, so kill me - who doesn't want to earn some extra...  Cool )

Sigh.

You just lost money to AuroraMine and are now placing links for some new HYIP's here along with your referral link.

I suggest you remove that post. You, like the previous users that I have tagged, are doing something extremely immoral. Some people are naïve enough to believe that they might make some money from these scams, just like you did when you "invested" in AuroraMine. Didn't quite work out well, now did it?

Now you have found more Ponzis and have linked them here for other users to fall into. Along with that, you are trying to make money off of it.

I suggest you remove those links before you get tagged. Would be a waste of a Legendary account now wouldn't it? Roll Eyes

No, I actually don't. I really couldn't give a shit if you want to waste your own money on Ponzi Schemes, but when you start trying to profit from others losses by posting a referal link, then in my eyes you have done something immoral, and you are not to be trusted.

cyclops 2016-10-31 0.00000000 Reference cyclops lied about making payment for an auction win, as well as faking a txid to make it look like he'd paid.
At the same time, he said he was doing this with CI's knowledge and approval, which turned out not to be the case.
This was dodgy behaviour IMO.

CryptoImperator 2016-10-31 0.00000000 Reference This started with cyclops "winning" an auction for CI's new 2oz 0.5 BTC coin. I was the second highest bidder at 0.52 BTC. cyclops "won" at 0.6 BTC. This was far less than the original price 9 other people paid for the coin: $450. cyclops put the same coin up for auction the very next day at a higher starting bid of 0.75 BTC (there is no problem with this). The problem starts here: cyclops had not paid for this coin, nor had he even been confirmed as the winner of the coin by CI. He proceeded to lie and say he had full permission to do this. After being called out on this, a txid was requested as proof of payment. A fake txid was provided as "proof", which obviously caused further issues. CI claimed not to have given permission to cyclops to auction off the coin when he had not even paid for it, nor had he declared a winner. This resulted in me, and CI, leaving negative rep for cyclops.

Things still did not add up, and a lot of research by several users yesterday brought up a fair amount of circumstantial evidence suggesting that CI = cyclops. CI refuses to address this issue properly, which is fine. This evidence remains circumstantial.

The negative rep I am leaving here is because in the linked thread above, Crypto Imperator has clearly stated that he has had control of the cyclops account at times. This means there is a chance that CI has bid on his own auctions, bumping up the price. cyclops has participated in a LOT of CI's auctions over time - and the fact that CI has had control of this account, is alarming. There is a lot wrong with this.

Until this issue has been addressed to everyone's satisfaction, this neg rep will remain.

I have been a lover of CI's coins from the beginning, and to do this saddens me, but what has happened is unacceptable.
NewkTownTN 2016-11-01 0.00000000 NewkTownTN purchased 2 x BTCC 0.5 BTC coins from me. No escrow was used. Payment was made instantly, and I was informed of the safe arrival of the coins. Great person to trade with. Would have no hesitation recommending this user! Thanks!!
dumbchump 2016-11-01 0.00000000 Have dealt with dumbchump twice now, regarding the purchase of a Lealana LTC Coin a while ago, and a Coinographic LTC Coin in our latest deal. On both occasions payment was sent immediately, without the use of escrow. This user is very pleasant to deal with. I would have no hesitation recommending him - very reliable trading partner. Thanks!
Betcoin.AG 2016-11-03 0.00000000 Reference Shady site, dodgy tactics to prevent paying out a huge jackpot to a rightful winner, forcing a Non Disclosure Agreement on said winner with a "bribe" of 50 BTC (instead of 1000+ BTC, which was the actual win), changing rules and TOS on the fly to prevent having to pay out said jackpot - the list goes on.
AVOID THIS SITE.

HotSwap 2016-12-03 0.00000000 Reference Likely an alt account of MoriartyBitcoin, who scammed user rickyjames of 127+ BTC. I would avise against trading with this member. There is more than just a strong possibility of being scammed - it is pretty much guaranteed. See reference.
Indianacoin 2016-12-04 0.00000000 Reference *Updated Feedback*

This user failed to honor a raffle win/s. A raffle was set up to help minerjones family (see reference) back in July this year. hybridsole and jacktheking were the winners of the raffle. Neither jacktheking, nor hybridsole received their prizes, or heard back from IndianaCoin after sending over their shipping details.

Until this is rectified, this tag will remain. This user needs to contact me, hybridsole and jacktheking with proof the prizes were sent, and I will then remove this feedback. Thanks

This time its a ~20 BTC theft through his "mixing service".

Lanzador 2016-12-14 0.00000000 Reference Interested in purchasing a hero/legendary account with dark green trust. These accounts are usually used to scam someone later down the line. I personally do not condone sales of these types of accounts.

str4wm4n 2016-12-20 0.86000000 Reference This account was hacked and used to scam me for 0.86 BTC. The original account owner noticed a short while after and returned to the forum, where he contacted me and repaid the amount scammed out of his own pocket.

He has signed messages from 2 different bitcoin addresses used on this forum in 2011 and 2012, which prove beyond reasonable doubt that he is the original owner of this account.
str4wm4n did a honourable thing by repaying me, and I am extremely grateful.

This serves as a note to others to state what has happened. Everything has been cleared up, and you can feel comfortable trading with this member utilising usual best practices such as escrow, which you should do with everyone regardless.

Thanks again for taking responsibility for the damage done by your account. Zepher.

greenplastic 2016-12-26 0.00000000 Sent GP an "emergency package" with goodies just in time for Christmas! Yet another ultra smooth transaction with this awesome member. Thanks for everything GP :)
magemist 2016-12-26 0.00000000 Reference This person frequently participates in account sales, including high ranked green trusted accounts, which are often used to scam unsuspecting individuals who have no idea the account has changed hands.
There are a lot more references than just that one above, this user is a serial account trader. I don't find people who trade forum accounts trustworthy.
I especially do not condone the sales of high ranked, green trusted accounts, for reasons given.

You need to find a better way of making money that wont likely result in someone else later down the road being a victim of a scam.
jagrapolite5 2016-12-27 0.00000000 Reference There are more than just a couple of scam accusations against this member. He has tried to scam several people/has scammed several people in the currency exchange section.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1724226.msg17279115#msg17279115

I would not trust this user. I would recommend either not trading with them, or using escrow if you do - they don't like being asked to use escrow which is a sign of someone trying to scam you.
killyou72 2016-12-28 0.00000000 This user has cleaned up their act, and seems to be trying to be a better person to trade with.

I retract my warning about dealing with this user, they have honoured all their latest commitments.

Scammer!
bamous 2017-01-28 0.00000000 Reference Scammer threatening to chargeback unless negative feedback is removed. This is classed as extortion in my book and worthy of yet another negative.
Quickseller 2017-02-02 0.00000000 Reference This user is meddling in my affairs that have absolutely nothing to do with him. He has a history of doing such things, as well as the self escrow stuff and plain down trolling with people with his sock puppet accounts.
I do not trust QuickSeller one bit.
hybridsole 2017-02-02 0.00000000 Purchased a Special Edition Ledger Nano S from hybridsole. We chat outside the forum and have got to know each other. He is a great guy to deal with, and downright honest. Thanks again for being a good friend!

owlcatz 2017-02-07 0.06000000 On this sad day... I decided to engage in some dodgy gambling with owlcatz for the sum of 5 XMR. I lost ;( This feedback is for QS, the wannabe forum sheriff, who has a right to all my personal deals. I would leave the txid for this transaction... but if you knew anything about XMR.. well, that wouldn't help much.
Sweminer777 2017-02-08 0.00000000 Reference This user keeps leaving me fake negative feedback whenever the occasions suits him. Latest one is from a few days ago. The reference is from months and months ago. It started there.
Tread lightly when dealing with this user is my advice.
DishTVAnywhere 2017-02-13 0.00000000 Reference Alt of a scammer. Do not trade without the use of escrow. I would personally recommend not trading with them at all.

We have completed that many trades that I have lost count.
A true asset to the community. Thank you for everything.
squall1066 2017-02-13 4.75000000 Reference Sold a bunch of BTCC Coins to this awesome forum member. Payment was sent immediately without the use of escrow, communication was top notch, and they are an honest and reliable person to do business with.

This feedback and amount is both the BTCC deal, and coins that I have purchased from them...

....which was MANY of their Squall Coins, which were purchased via auction over the last few months. I have been pleased every time.
Thanks for being a great person to deal with! I look forward to more in the future - I am quite sure I'll be buying more of your coins haha.
Thanks again :)

Kuriko 2017-02-15 0.00000000 Reference Likely alt account of user "BuyWithBitcoin.info".
This user has been sending me threatening PM's (BuyWithBitcoin.info, not this account), and using yet another alt account "XXXXXXXXXXXXX" to PM me with threats as well. The reference link shows this account using the same wallet address as "BuyWithBitcoin.info", and is wearing their website in avatar and signature space.
This user has also left positive trust for his own alt above.

Update: This user does appear to be a different person than the user BuyWithBitcoin.info. As a result, I have revised the rating to a neutral.
Branduardi 2017-02-15 2.39000000 This user purchased some BTCC coins from me. Payment was sent direct without use of escrow, and they have been great to deal with. Have no hesitation recommending them as a reliable person to trade with.
Hhampuz 2017-02-16 0.00000000 There is too many reference links to even choose from, but Hhampuz has become a very valued member of the community. He has actively planned, put into action raffles of extreme proportion, and pulled it off both times :D
Hhampuz has also held several raffles for me recently, which he did with total competence.
Thanks for all your help bud. Keep up the good work.

DO NOT DEAL WITH THIS USER.

coinhuddle 2017-03-01 0.00000000 Reference This is a further rating for this user. At the time of the previous deal, he said he would give me Kialaras latest piece, Soul of Satoshi, free of charge when he eventually received it.
As promised, it was sent out and received today. Thank you for being a man of your word.
lenny_ 2017-03-07 0.00000000 Reference Another scam accusation against this user.
This is a known alt of MoriartyBitcoin, a known scammer who has been scamming the community for a very long time now.
Liad.Services 2017-03-07 0.00000000 Reference I posted this several days ago:

I would advise against dealing with this account until all current issues are resolved.

Liad, contact me once you have cleared up your obligations to have this tag removed.

Update: It now appears that Liad.Services has turned scam. There are multiple people with outstanding items from him - and he has also deactivated his account on the Slack group he was part of. There is too much adding up here, including someone who purchased more than 1 BTC of silver, who hasn't received anything for it.

***I WOULD ADVISE AGAINST DEALING WITH THIS ACCOUNT UNTIL THIS IS RESOLVED***

BuyWithBitcoin.info 2017-03-16 0.00000000 Reference As agreed, am revising my neg tags to a neutral, though this account has not been used since Feb 27th (as of March 16th 2016).

First neg tag was:
This account is solely interested in purchasing high ranked accounts. Just check the post history. Spammer as well. Deal with caution.

Second tag:
This user now warrants a second negative tag. He has used another account to get around the fact I blocked his PM's - threatening me to remove the negative rating or he will keep adding negs to my profile. The other account used is "XXXXXXXXXXXXX" (that is 13 X's...) with the UID 938783, which also promotes buywithbitcoin.info. I have been called a "f**king cockroach" among other things by this user.
I would recommend avoiding trading with either of them.

**Even though I am revising to a neutral, I would exercise caution when dealing with this account. Do your due diligence before you trade**
XXXXXXXXXXXXX 2017-03-16 0.00000000 As agreed, after a 30 day cooling off period, I am revising my neg tag to a neutral. Please note this account has not actually been logged into since February 17th, so a month now.

My initial neg:
Likely alt account of "BuyWithBitcoin.info", both of which have sent me PM's threatening me with negs if I didn't remove the neg I left for BuyWithBitcoin.info at the beginning of the month.
I do not take threats lightly.

This rating has been left for the other account:

This user now warrants a second negative tag.

I would strongly advise against playing at the site/s mentioned in the accusations.
NewAge Bank 2017-04-10 0.00000000 Reference Ponzi/HYIP that is pretending to be a "Bitcoin Bank".. They somehow got hold of my email address and are constantly spamming me with their BS.

****DO NOT INVEST A SINGLE SATOSHI INTO THIS SITE - YOU WILL LOSE IT ALL, EVERY PONZI/HYIP FAILS AND RUNS WITH ANY MONEY INVESTED****
sportsbet.io 2017-04-16 0.00000000 Reference Multiple scam accusations against this casino in the scam section. The reference linked shows them withholding 21.5 BTC, of which 15 BTC was a deposit with 6.5 BTC winnings. Sportsbet have not paid out the 21.5 BTC, nor even returned the original deposit of 15 BTC. I would advise against playing at this casino until all allegations are fully resolved.
Branduardi 2017-04-16 0.00000000 Reference Another deal made with this user. I sold a Kialara Original to Branduardi, payment sent direct without use of escrow. Would deal with anytime.

vodaljepa 2017-04-23 0.00000000 Reference Ran a faucet that did not pay participants, plus other non-trustworthy stuff. Judging from other ratings here, I would recommend avoiding trading with this user.
YoBit 2017-04-23 0.00000000 Reference YoBit has had an increasing amount of complaints against it lately. I have not tagged them until now, though this latest reference shows how they are pretty much holding $30k worth of ION hostage whilst the coin is in constant "maintenance mode", leaving the OP unable to withdraw his coins. Support has not responded in thread, and more cases are popping up - see Lauda's references.
I will remove this tag should they resolve these issues.
secondstrade.com 2017-04-24 0.00000000 Reference Account hacked. Will remove when it is back under the control of secondstrade.com

defcon23 2017-04-26 0.00000000 Reference Defcon is an unstable individual that hoards other users information, then uses it against them for his own amusement or to get his own way. A few months ago he found a picture of me online and PM'd it to me, along with text along the lines of "hu hu hu, this you bro? wanna play?"
Seems he has continued to participate in doing things like this, and recently threatened Hhampuz and his partner using similar tactics.
I feel that defcon has crossed the line on more than one occasion now, and sometimes to extreme levels, and deserves the negative publicity he has since received.
rpietila 2017-04-28 0.00000000 Reference Open scam accusation against this user, to the tunes of hundreds of BTC.
SkrillexLegit 2017-04-29 0.00000000 Reference Open scam accusation against this user. Please respond!
Chevas Regal 2017-05-04 0.00000000 Reference Thinking, and stating that it is perfectly okay for hackers to steal BTC (via any method) is not something I consider trustworthy, or something that a reputed member of the forum to say. This is a note to show the moral stance of the person you are dealing with.
topherhf 2017-05-06 0.00000000 Reference Scam accusation against this user. Please respond to the thread referenced.
Xiaoxiao 2017-05-06 0.00000000 Reference **Updated Feedback**

This user has gambled away funds that did not belong to him. This is extremely wrong, in many ways, and he/she should have no access to funds that do not belong to him in the future.

I applaud you for coming clean on this. Please seek help. This can always get worse.

Previous rating from yesterday:

Open scam accusation against this user. Please visit the referenced thread and explain why you have not paid people.

kirch 2017-05-13 0.00000000 Reference **REVISED FEEDBACK**

When checking blocktrail.com with the address that kirch staked in the staked address thread yesterday: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=996318.msg18990925#msg18990925 - you will find the same address was posted in a thread a year ago that has since been edited: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1357971.msg13821313#msg13821313 - now edited posts don't usually count towards proving account ownership, but that address seemingly was posted by kirch a year ago as blocktrail has recorded and remembered it. I personally asked kirch for another signed message from that address which I have posted in the thread referenced. On this occasion I am giving the benefit of the doubt and revising this feedback to a neutral tag.

syahril 2017-05-13 0.00000000 Reference Bounty thief that steals someone's work and promotes it as their own.
pcoin 2017-05-14 0.00000000 Reference Scam accusation against this user. Lost a users funds trading forex, promised to repay the amount but didn't. Makes a further promise to pay but fails to do that as well. Tag will remain until the OP has been repaid the 0.1 BTC in full.
Xboxthreefixme 2017-05-16 0.00000000 Reference Extending an auction when there was a legitimate winning bid is a total no no.
No matter how you try to justify your reasons for extending the auction, it is extremely bad etiquette.
Please don't PM me as you have done others. This rating is fully valid and justified.
Ben Walsh (beamer) 2017-05-16 0.00000000 Reference Open scam accusation against this user. Please respond!
ParaDice.io 2017-05-20 0.00000000 Reference Scam accusation against this casino. A "visual bug" apparently caused a players balance to be affected in a negative way - ie; a winning bet was shown to be a losing bet, winnings were not paid according to the author of the thread. The "dev" responded and on top of not fully clarifying what caused this issue, chose to insult the OP by calling them an idiot. This is extremely unprofessional. All in all, I would not consider this site trustworthy and would recommend playing elsewhere. There are much better, safer, and more respectful casinos out there.

Changed to a neutral for now as the owner is adamant that this was a one off visual bug.
tothemoonsands 2017-05-21 0.00000000 Won an auction for a BTCC bundle. Paid directly without the use of escrow. Thanks for the smooth trade.
greenplastic 2017-05-21 10.00000000 Plenty more trades done with GP. Always pays instantly, and is a complete pleasure to deal with. Thanks for everything :)
djordjamayna 2017-05-22 0.00000000 Reference Open scam accusation against this member who gambled away 5 BTC on Roulette, according to his own words. This rating will remain until his investors have been paid back.
RichG 2017-05-23 0.00000000 Reference Multiple scam accusations against this account. Appears to have been hacked/stolen. I would advise against dealing with the user,you are likely to get scammed.
foxy282 2017-05-26 0.00000000 Reference Impersonating another trusted member, along with accusations of scamming users on other forums. Always use escrow, especially with a user like this.
Italone100 2017-05-28 0.00000000 Reference Trying to sell his verified, trusted Localbitcoins account. Such an account will solely be used to scam by a purchaser. I do not condone sales of forum or trading accounts.
TitanBTC 2017-05-28 25.00000000 I have purchased many coins from Titan over the years, and have always been extremely satisfied. Tim is a fantastic person to deal with, and this rating is well deserved. Looking forward to any new product lines :)
Deja 2017-05-31 0.00000000 Reference Ibminer has done all the work here, and this very much looks like a scam. I'd avoid investing, you're likely to lose your money.
muddafudda 2017-05-31 0.00000000 Reference Hacked account - see reference.
wheelz1200 2017-06-02 0.00000000 Bought a set of Wheelz1200's new GAME CREDITS Coins. They are absolutely magnificent, and a must have for any fan of GAME, or if you are a participant of the recent MobileGo ICO. These sets of 4 coins were a ridiculously cheap price, and sold out in minutes on private channels. A very limited quantity of 25 sets of 4 coins each make these pretty scarce. An absolutely awesome guy to deal with, and 100% trusted by all the regulars in the Collectibles scene. Thanks for this amazing creation - it is my favourite coin this year thus far for many reasons :)
sasha35625 2017-06-07 0.00000000 Reference Running a signature campaign that only pays for "constructive posts", but the payment is made by a bot.. how would the bot know whether a post is constructive or not?!

There are also some unresolved scam accusations against Waves in the scam section - see Lauda's rating.
btcprincess 2017-06-07 0.00000000 Reference I strongly believe this ICO for BitCAD to be a scam. When pushed for addresses that deposits went to, an ETH address with deposits older than when the ICO even started was published. This is obviously false. Until actual proof of funds has been published, this tag will remain. Overall extremely suspicious.
Changelly 2017-06-07 0.00000000 Reference Charged a customer approximately 80% in fees for a crypto pair conversion by paying from multiple addresses filled with dust. Check the tx to see just how much that transaction cost. Approximately 0.05 BTC in fees with the user receiving just over 0.01 BTC. I find this highly unprofessional, and to be honest, scammy. Their response to the user was absurd as well. I advise you to rectify this situation in the thread linked. I also advise other users not to use this service until this has been resolved.
ibminer 2017-06-08 0.00000000 I echo Avirune's rating here. ibminer has shown himself to be a valuable asset to the crypto community on bitcointalk. Keep up the good work bud.
qwep 2017-06-08 0.00000000 Reference Likely a hacked or sold account. I advise trading with extreme caution.
cunicula 2017-06-10 0.00000000 Reference Escrow scammer (check other references) plus now wants to buy green trusted accounts. Have another tag.
nachius 2017-06-10 0.00000000 Reference Multiple scam accusations. I got him out of one as he sent me valid proof, but I now believe him to be a scammer.
ChrisLandin 2017-06-12 0.00000000 Reference Scam accusation against this user.
MargonCreatives 2017-06-12 0.00000000 Reference See yahoos reference. Advising others not to repay their loans. I would not class this user as trustworthy at all.
busoni 2017-06-12 0.00000000 Reference There has been an ever increasing amount of accusations against this exchange recently. The Scam Section is full of them. You, as the owner of this exchange, also chose to shut down your troll box - which is suspicious to many as well. You need to get your act together man, respond to the accusations against your company/exchange, and resolve the issues users are facing - and I will remove this rating. Thanks in advance.
jamalaezaz 2017-06-12 0.00000000 Reference You have been given enough time to sort out the issues with the TaaS bounty payments. Some are incorrect, some are not paid, lots of people are complaining, and now with the post referenced I have no option but to leave you this rating until you have fully resolved all of this. I will be watching. Once you fix this, I will remove this.

***Revised to a neutral for now***
TheKing247 2017-06-13 0.00000000 Trolling users, spamming the trust system and more. Please see the references below.
Blazed 2017-06-13 5.00000000 Purchased numerous Titan BTC Coins from Blazed recently without the use of escrow. As always, the man has delivered. Thanks again for everything!
minerjones 2017-06-13 0.00000000 Recently purchased a Set of Cryptopods from both minerjones and digicoinuser. They are beautiful items, you sure are missing out if you don't own one.. Thanks to both of you!
digicoinuser 2017-06-13 0.00000000 Recently purchased a Set of Cryptopods from both minerjones and digicoinuser. They are beautiful items, you sure are missing out if you don't own one.. Thanks to both of you!
lecongnhan123 2017-06-14 0.00000000 Reference Selling PayPal accounts with fake SSN's from the USA. This is essentially fraud.
bitmarket.io 2017-06-15 0.00000000 Reference bitmarket failed to honour an auction win. This is not the first time this user has done such an action. I strongly disagree with this, if you auction something, you honour it. Your past cases show that you have not learnt from your previous mistakes.
Godwine 2017-06-22 0.00000000 Reference Scammed greenplastic out of a large sum of BTC. Either has been hacked, or there is something else going on here.
elegant_joylin 2017-07-11 0.00000000 Reference According to the thread referenced, this user is using Google Translate in order to cheat bounties etc.
Armin van Bruggen 2017-07-11 0.00000000 Reference Selling a bot that is solely used to provide a service used to scam people.
aadje93 2017-07-11 0.00000000 Reference Scammer who has admitted to being one. There is enough tags on this account already, so I am aware this one is not necessarily required - but adding it to be on the safe side.
dozerz 2017-07-24 0.00000000 Reference dozerz won an auction of mine and paid direct without the use of escrow. I was a little late shipping the package due to an error, and dozerz was more than understanding :) hope you enjoy the goodies! Would happily do business with this user again.
DuckDice.io 2017-07-26 0.00000000 Reference Last feedback left on 24/07/17: "Shady site with ridiculous bonus terms. Avoid."

This is being changed to reflect they did refund the user his deposit of 2 BTC, but only after considerable pressure from the community.
CrackDown 2017-07-27 0.00000000 Reference Scam accusation against this user. Avoid trading with them until this has been resolved.
blo8i 2017-07-29 0.00000000 Reference Open scam accusation against this member. The email address on this account has also been changed recently. I advise that trading with this account is avoided until the owner proves ownership and this accusation is cleared up.
crypto-rainbow 2017-08-05 0.00000000 Reference Blatant misuse of the trust system by asking others to leave positive trust. This is evidenced on this users trust page.
NobleGhost 2017-09-04 0.00000000 Reference User is selling a cracked version of Gunbot. I would avoid buying this software, you really don't know what you could be downloading onto your machine.
gameristo 2017-09-24 0.00000000 Reference This user has been acting suspicious with PayPal -> BTC trades. He is in control of a number of PayPal accounts (which is against PayPal's Terms of Service), along with literally forcing trades upon other forum members. I would strongly advise against trading with this member, there is a high chance that his PayPal funds are fraudulent, and that it will be charged back at a later date when you are not expecting it.
gravitate 2017-09-24 0.00000000 Reference Don't think I need to add anything here, just read hybridsole's comment, along with Mitchell and Lauda, and that is pretty much what I think too, along with the previous issues of Coin ID's not matching privkeys on a substantial percentage of coins that have been redeemed. This is not the way you run a business Gravitate, and your attitude towards your (former) clientele speaks volumes about how you feel - You just don't give a shit anymore, it is quite obvious to see. It is also quite sad.

RIP yet another crypto-coin maker. You go down in the history books along with Alitin & Coinographic.
Bitzure 2017-09-24 0.00000000 Reference Multiple scam accusations against this "company/exchange". Several users report being robbed of their funds, and no withdrawals being processed. I would advise people to NOT use this site under current circumstances.
Pistachio 2017-09-25 12.50000000 Had a large $ value transaction with this member for the new release from Kialara. Deal went through fine. Pistachio is a good asset to the collectors community.
greenplastic 2017-09-27 0.00000000 Dozens more deals done with GP over the last few months. This forum member is a true pleasure to deal with, and every transaction is smooth as anything. Thank you for everything, you are an immense asset to this community.
SwingFirst 2017-09-27 0.00000000 Reference Account has been hacked. Do not trust anything from this account until it is back in the hands of the original owner.
GoldMineToken 2017-10-11 0.00000000 Reference This user/"company" has pretty much copy/pasted an entire website from a legitimate company, and started an ICO to raise funds. Whatever funds are raised will basically be stolen. Do your own due diligence, and invest at your own risk.

I would consider goldmtoken.com as an outright scam, and wouldn't trust them with a single satoshi.
Rux 2017-10-11 0.00000000 Reference Offering their account up for sale. I do not condone the selling of bitcointalk forum accounts. These traded accounts are used to scam a lot of people on this forum. What a waste of a Legendary account.
Wyospl2 2017-10-13 1.00000000 This user purchased a BTCC Signature Set + some BTCC Extras from me a couple of weeks ago. BTC was sent to me promptly, without the use of escrow. Would happily deal with the user again.
N-D-A 2017-10-14 0.00000000 Reference Shilling for what is clearly a Ponzi scheme.
ripplehd1 2017-10-14 0.00000000 Reference What you are doing here is essentially trust farming. You are solely wishing (hoping!!) to deal with DT 1 & 2 Members who are able to leave positive trust on your profile for a transaction worth a grand maximum of $20.
You cannot buy trust. The sooner you learn that, the better.
btcone111 2017-10-14 0.00000000 Reference Shilling for what is clearly a Ponzi scheme. Directly trying to profit from others losses by putting a referal link in posts. Argues about how investing in a Ponzi scheme is similar to buying a lottery ticket (lol really?) - and failing to see how profiting from the losses of others is immoral.
doce1 2017-10-17 0.00000000 Account compromised. Avoid dealing until Blazed confirms it is back in the hands of the original owner.
SwapStick 2017-10-18 0.00000000 Reference Decent evidence that this user tried to scam another user out of ~20 BTC by trying to take over their PC whilst connected on TeamViewer. I will remove this rating if SwapStick proves beyond doubt that he was not trying to scam the person in the thread referenced.
Bankera 2017-10-18 0.00000000 Reference The person behind Bankera is the same person behind Spectrocoin, who have stolen in excess of 200 BTC from users by locking their Spectrocoin accounts and stealing their balances. They don't even deny that they have done this. I would be very wary dealing with this or any company that is a part of Spectrocoin.
VytautasK 2017-10-18 0.00000000 Reference This is the person behind Bankera, the same person who is behind Spectrocoin and who has stolen in excess of 200 BTC from users by locking their Spectrocoin accounts and stealing their balances. They don't even deny that they have done this. I would be very wary dealing with this user or any company that is a part of Spectrocoin.
z0n0 2017-10-19 0.00000000 Reference Directly trying to profit from others losses by putting a referal link in posts for a Ponzi Scheme. User knows this is wrong and that people will lose funds, but wants to get some funds back after losing money themselves with the Auroramine scam. You fail to see how profiting from the losses of others is immoral.

Appears that I have pissed you off somewhat. Well, I apologise for that. I gave you an opportunity to remove the links, but you just got cocky. You could have easily avoided being tagged had you not been concerned about lining your own pockets, but it appears that's all you thought about.

You know what you did wrong, you just don't care.

Take care now.

You damn right you pissed me off!
I checked your account here, you really like to fuck up peoples account, you gave more than a 100 negative reports. You obviously like to play righteous God in here and stick your nose lot further than you should.
Like I said, you'll get yours, universe will take care of you sooner or later and when it does I sure hope you'll think of me!
You are the one being cocky here.

There are newer just like sites, I checked and got their email answer, they also have their twitter account.

~snip~ (8 days live)

~snip~ (3 days live)

(yes, it's my ref link, so kill me - who doesn't want to earn some extra...  Cool )

Sigh.

You just lost money to AuroraMine and are now placing links for some new HYIP's here along with your referral link.

I suggest you remove that post. You, like the previous users that I have tagged, are doing something extremely immoral. Some people are naïve enough to believe that they might make some money from these scams, just like you did when you "invested" in AuroraMine. Didn't quite work out well, now did it?

Now you have found more Ponzis and have linked them here for other users to fall into. Along with that, you are trying to make money off of it.

I suggest you remove those links before you get tagged. Would be a waste of a Legendary account now wouldn't it? Roll Eyes

Shooooow meeeee theeee moooooneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeyyyy  Cool

Yeah mate, I lost some and now want to get it back with referrals.

Everybody should use their head and do a research.

Stick your self righteousness up yourself.
Threatening other users like this
You thnk you're a saint don't you?


No, I actually don't. I really couldn't give a shit if you want to waste your own money on Ponzi Schemes, but when you start trying to profit from others losses by posting a referal link, then in my eyes you have done something immoral, and you are not to be trusted.

Blah blah, self righteousness, blah blah, playing god, blah
blah, threaten other users, hahaha, blah,
blah, blah blah, oh my god im so great!

LOL

enjoy, I can see you have a lot of fun doing that. glad you find some meaning for your (insert adjective here) life!

Pretty sure that noone with true morals and honesty has "Fun" trying to rid the forum of losers like you, myself included.

Good job trashing your account, now quit being a whiny little bitch and clean up your act. Roll Eyes

Auroramine admin comes probably from Germany because of some indications like the head title on FAQ that is simply in German and not English. Anyone remember Thunderbit.io or the newest crap Lifebit.io?
They both do not differ from the structure, same arrangement. Let's compare the FAQs of both sites: https://prnt.sc/h06hu9 - https://prnt.sc/h06hzy. The same thing is the highlighted email address with the company address on the below. If this is not enough, let's look at the source code of Lifebit.io FAQs and see what I found: https://prnt.sc/h06izy. The map was embedded with the location in the German language, another indication that the operator is german.
But another proof is that the DNS IP of Auroramine.com shows that it comes from Germany, a company who offers DDOS Protection.
All in all, the operator of Auroramine and Lifebit may come probably from Germany, although it's silly that they left it, or it can be that they faked it.

Based on the website structure and the above mentioned indicator, the following sites were operated by the same group: Nano-Hash.com, Thunderbit.io, Auroramine.com and Lifebit.io

They are registered as a company in this country. 

https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/10956583/officers

Same name and director.  Its probably against the law if they used false details.  Started the company mid Sept.

I bet you can buy fake cloud mining templates on the dark web somewhere.

Auroramine admin comes probably from Germany because of some indications like the head title on FAQ that is simply in German and not English. Anyone remember Thunderbit.io or the newest crap Lifebit.io?
They both do not differ from the structure, same arrangement. Let's compare the FAQs of both sites: https://prnt.sc/h06hu9 - https://prnt.sc/h06hzy. The same thing is the highlighted email address with the company address on the below. If this is not enough, let's look at the source code of Lifebit.io FAQs and see what I found: https://prnt.sc/h06izy. The map was embedded with the location in the German language, another indication that the operator is german.
But another proof is that the DNS IP of Auroramine.com shows that it comes from Germany, a company who offers DDOS Protection.
All in all, the operator of Auroramine and Lifebit may come probably from Germany, although it's silly that they left it, or it can be that they faked it.

That does not prove their legitimacy. You can set up nowadays for as low as £19 ($25) a registered company in the UK. The recent registration of AuroraMine's company and especially if you compare the birth date of Harvey Brown with the picture on the site, it is clearly a scam. Which person who is 20 years old, looks like 40 years old? Their site is just a joke.

That is not the same admin. It is just another imposter who wants you to send BTC for getting account details on this new platform. Obviously, on the site is no login/registration page and even an SSL is missing.
