Has anyone ordered from http://btcminingrig.com?

[hendo420]

It just seems like too good of a deal and they actually have asic's in stock to ship. Should I invest in one or is it a scam?

Scam looks like ASICrigs.com

But do alert BFL, I'm sure they would love to sue these guys!

 How did you come across this out of curiosity.

 It is evidently a fraudulent site that is ripping off images from BFL's product lineup. Would not recommend investing with this site.

There's a guy (sorry, forgot the nick) pushing them at btc-e.com exchange in the "trollbox"...

Smells like same guy/people as ASICrigs.com (see for yourself -- design, descriptions, ... )

* Everything installs automatically in your computer -- same as ASICrigs and totally stupid for anyone who is actually mining bitcoins -- but it's not for those of course
* BFL design ripoff with removed logo (same as ASICrigs.com had)
* lots and lots of inconsistencies
* pricing is crazy (chips cost that much as the complete miner), 25GH model is more expensive (in GH-per-$) that 5GH model
* Avalon chips in ANY design probably wouldn't even fit in the box for a 5GH/s miner not speaking about 25GH "model" -- with same case as 5GH/s (...to save costs -- reply in comments -- lol).
* No mention about power consumption.
* with avalon chips 25GH/s miner would take about ~230W -- I would like to see that power source which would fit (together with the miner inside that mini-case) -- even BFL, whose design they've ripped off, has external power sources
* I'm not really sure avalon has sent ANY chips (apart from samples) to anyone -- yet they have full stock of miners with 24822.695 chips
* apparently they're not selling any (cause the stock is still the same)
* and many more
* i think looking into company's background is totally unnecessary ;-)

Good thing you've come to bitcointalk

I'd advise AGAINST any business with them.

Yes, someone was pushing them on BTC-E trollbox. I saw that as well, looked at the website and quite likely taught it was a scam. Seems too good to be true. I checked the phone support and it gave me the message that the number is actually not in use.

I would seriously advise staying away from this company. Too high of a risk!

[Bitcoinorama]

It's blatantly a scam! I don't know why anyone suggests an ounce of doubt!

Supposedly operating out of China.

Rip off of popular mining devices from BFL.

Exact same scam as Asicrigs.com, after they supposedly pulled their scam, which they haven't.

Yah think?  When will people just call it straight out:  someone who cannot possibly have the technology, violates legitimate vendors' IP and copyright protections on their website, and has fraudulent contract information is not "too high of a risk!"

They're fucking scammers!  As long as any one even thinks "gee, I want this so much to be true, maybe it is," this shit will go on.

LOL, i see they've fixed a lot of "inconsistencies" I've mentioned in my previous post LOL ... maybe there's still some hope for them... Maybe they'll even get some product in the future to sell

(updates are:

- some units are sold... stock has begun moving
- there's a power consumption specified
)

So you're reading this you scammer... You've forgot to specify, that power source is included (or maybe target audience's expecting integrated power source, no worry it wouldn't fit in that tiny butterfly lab's box

Should have specified some made up numbers instead... Would have been more fun seeing them on their page

just for the laughs ... adding the comment via API every time it's deleted? 8-D

maybe there are people who aren't active on this forum, who might benefit from the information being present on FB, but don't know if it's worth as this thread is 3rd in google for "btcminingrig.com" ;-)

There is nothing to consider with that BFL Like scammy rigs
