Be aware! In google there is pangolinminer.shop website. It seems to be scam!
Yes, please only use the official web shop. I'm posting a copy of this post here as well, so that hopefully no one gets scammed by these scammers... Yeah, scammers are a real pain in the ass. DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS WEB ADDRESS: PANGOLINSALES.COM THEY ARE SCAMMERS. THE ONLY OFFICIAL WEB SHOP IS IN THIS WEB ADDRESS: WWW.PANGOLINMINER.COM

Hi there! Im interesting in purchasing pangolin m3 miners, but I still dont understand how it works. Will you (pangolin company) give me any payment documents or how I can be sure when I did a bulk pre-order in amount of 100-500 units?
Email pm@pangolinminer.comwrote them 2 times. they haven't reply.

I was going to buy these when they were $11xx usd. But so close to the price of an s9 now it no longer makes any sense to buy these machines due to their power consumption. They went way too high with their price and the fact they are still in stock reflects this.

I just checked their site via Google Chrome on Windows 10 and it seems fine to me. The malware alert is probably a false alarm from AdGuard and unless someone else can prove otherwise, it should be safe to use.

Just passing on what popped up. What AV do you use? Just Windows Defender? It could very well be a false positive, I hope so! ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.buildpics.org%2Fwp-content%2Fgallery%2Fbitcoin%2FPang-warning.JPG&t=665&c=hzkc1ICCKE1wsA)

It's the same for me as well. I sent an email to them to see if I get an explanation. They probably have no idea what is happening, since they are never active on weekends. I recommend not signing into your account until it's fixed!
Edit: My AV says Pangolinminer was reported as a Phishing site.

I agree with you that they overpriced themselves given the alternatives available. There was plenty of demand around the $1,188 price point I am sure. I tried to order several (3-4) times @1188-1500usd but was unable to secure any via their shopping cart. I still wouldn't mind purchasing one if only to test it out and compare to other asic miners. Im just not playing the game with their cart anymore...it is sort of a joke.

Pangolinminer miner replied to my email about their websites Antivirus problem. They requested a screenshot, and I supplied one. I also advised them to look at this thread to see more concerns, and screenshots.
When I looked for some info on the matter, I saw on scamadvisor dot com, that their server (which hosts many other web sites as well) had been reported as compromised. However, it does not say who reported it, and for what reasons, or WHAT COMPONENT WAS COMPROMISED. They just have a severe warning indicator about the Malware URL/ Phishing on the site.
I tried my computer at work yesterday, after seeing this problem earlier in the morning, and that machine had no AV problem with the site. However, it is a turd running XP with Panda AV. I just wanted to try from a different machine, but I still didn't try to log in to my account.

In my last exchange of emails from Pangolinminer, they had asked me what browser I used for my screenshot. I explained to them I tried the website on, IE, Chrome, and Mozilla, all with the same results. (Note: I also used 3 different devices, but forgot to mention that to them.) I also expressed my concern about logging into their site to check up on my oreder, and below is the reply I received: Hello,
Sorry that recently we have updated our server, there's changes in hosting IP.
In this case, some 3rd party may recognize this change as "unsafe changes".
So you may experience some warning if the security level is quite high from your side.
Pls try to check your order status next week, or you can tell me your order number, we will update you here.
We apologize for your inconvenience.

Hi, they are blacklisted by IBM XForce. https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/url/pangolinminer.comXForce is used by services like Quad9. If you use nslookup with DNS-Server 9.9.9.9 you can't get an adress-resolution. If you use 9.9.9.10 or 8.8.8.8 you will get the right IP-Address. So it depends on the DNS-Servers you are using if you can reach that domain or not. The same with email. Depending on the DNS, you can't send or receive emails to or from pangolinminer.com. If they indeed changed their provider or IP-Address they have a lot of bad luck. I told them about that, but just got a standard answer. They (or the provider) should fix this as soon as possible. Cheers
