Xtreme miners - scam?

[PeterVenter]

Xtreme Miners looks like scam.

I called the building management company (RFR Immobilien Verwaltungs GmbH, Frankfurt am Main, Tel. (+49) 69/71712990) for their address (Eschersheimer Landstraße 19-21 60322 Frankfurt am Main, Germany). The responsible advisor (Herr Schmidt) told me there is no company called Xtreme Miners there and no person called "Berg" which is shown in the impressum of Xtreme Miners.

Nothing more to say...

You're correct! - Mr Berg has nothing to do with this so-called company.

Jesus, that's one expensive lesson. Really sucks man.

[bitdropper]

Yep it was ... that is why I don't want anyone else to get screwed.  I know I am a newbie but been mining for months to get that much.   Any donations to the "SUCKA CLUB" would be appreciated

I stupidly ordered a tiger january batch from xtrememiners, which they failed to deliver. I have been trying to ask for refund,ever since then they have stopped responding to all my emails... I am an average guy from India, 10000 dollars means almost half of my lifetime savings...working like a dog, and living in a very dire strait condition, I managed to save a bit. I dont want any one else to get cheated by these mindless greedy pigs.

[broke]

 For those who have already been cheated we should form a group and register the case at ic3.gov and see other alternative methods to get hold of them. I mean the website is registered under somebody's name. If the icc center or any other government body gets after them they will brought to justice in no time. How could someone run a website opens an account iat coinbase and runs away with millions of dollar.If we want there are plenty of traces, for which we need to work together..

[MichaelNZ]

I have just sent them an email request for information. Given what I'm reading here it'll be interesting to see what comes of it.

Has anyone heard of someone being delivered by Xtreme Miners ?

I am also considering buying from cointerra, but missed out on the May delivery and have been told that June will be unlikely as they work to catch up, plus, expect an exciting announcement from them over the coming days and weeks ... that sounds interesting.

[metroickha]

They are scam.

I have contacted them before buying anything. I asked them if I could come over.
They were kind enough to let me come over. However I did not go.
I am from the Netherlands, and I am receiving mails from them at times between 2:00 AM and 5:00 AM.
If that company was settled in Germany, then those times are not regular working times.

[broke]

there is a guy who has formed a group to file a join complain against xtrememiners, his email address is terrecitoyen@yahoo.fr All those who have been scammed by xtrememiners please write to him, I have already done that..

[bitlite]

Because they are the new company doesn't mean they are the scam.  Currently many miner production companies are using the pre-order business model to gather Capital to continue their project/business.

Some succeed and many failed.  Even the successful ones like to stay as private as possible due to the high risk of being victimized by others.  (These companies do have lots of $$$ and lots of R&D information, not to mention if they are in the prototype stages, they don't want the competitors from stealing anything from them.

As I recently reviewed Bitmain Tech's AntMiner 180GH/S ASIC Mining unit, many to include the Hero/Sr.Member of this forum called it SCAM, but, at the end, they did produce the miners and actually shipped as they promised

Because of so much life saving loss with these pre-orders, we started the 3rd party reviews to give potential investors more information to digest before committing their thousands of USD for the next 3-12 months until they receive the actual miners.

P.S.

I don't blame these guys/gals who calls everything SCAM, as 2012 and 2013, many millions of doller were lost in the pre-order deals.  Many of them lost their Retirement and Life Saving thinking they will double/triple their money in a few months, but that didn't happen.

A Preorder business is a scam anyway you look at it. Preorders should be made illegal. We all know that miners trying to make a profit ain't happening so far. The whole bitcoin mining scam is a total waste of time. When suckers, I mean miners decide to mine for alternate currencies then sit back and watch Bitcoin self destruct

Cool.  Might want to make a post in the CUSTOM HARDWARE forum and call it "MinersCube - SCAM?", mention that it may be the same people and link to this thread.

I think that the fate of bitcoin has come near. with so many scams only someone insane would dare to purchase anything using bitcoin over the internet. To add on that the mtgox withdrawal issue and also the extreme volatility of the currency's value. I think bitcoin will die pretty soon...

well I am trying to snap out of it but u know in india i am a middle class guy with an average salary which is about 5 dollars per day for working about 11 hours a day. Now for me that is about 22000 hours of hard labour. Which is almost 6 to 7 years of nonstop working days..

Looks a little scammy to me - especially the projected performance - 0.3J/GH @ 28nm?  That sounds a bit low.

yep page 10 of the i think bitcoin magazine full page add issue 16 it think the "too the moon" issue

so much for 'responsible journalism" no vetting pay us $$$ we will say you are selling a miner even if it is imagainary
