FRAUD ALERT!!! IMPOSTER WEBSITE

[bitkman]

There is a website that is advertising on google adwords and acts like a popular mining hardware website by including an extra "L" in domain url name.

Here is what I am talking about:
butterflylabs.com <- Normal
butterflyllabs.com <- SCAMMER FRAUD WEBSITE

Look careful in the second link, it has an extra "L"

The website comes up when you search "butterfly labs" in google. The scammer looks like he/she is advertising with google adwords.

Here is a sample picture:

As the word say: DONATION (do it ONLY if you want).

He spent his time trying to help The community. Different than you and me, that's spent our time with comments like these.

Thanks for your advise!!

Main reason for the post was to warn people against this fraud.

After all, it is the first link on google when you search for the mining company. Only difference, extra "l" in url.

Thanks for posting this, I'm sure lots of people would not have been so diligent and clicked straight on the link.

The imposter copied the mining company's website fully and is offering amazing deals that will attract an innocent buyer not paying attention.

First link in Google for this term "Butterfly Labs". That will surely get some people.

On top of that the fraudulent website only accepts bitcoins which is harder to reverse if he runs away with it.

+1.

Nice catch OP, would donate but am a little short on Bitcoins these days.

[phirex]

isnt the original site a fraud too? 

[meade16]

Report it to Google. I have.

[bitkman]

Success: Looks like they are removed from google adwords. In the least bit it will save some innocent people their hard earned btcs.

I have also filled many complaints with google adwords. Hopefully next time they will pick up on them before posting.

These scammers and fraudsters the time it takes them to scam people and construct a really good fraud... they can actually work and earn real living.

Some of them are really smart... wasted intelligence!

New low-fat recipe, same scammy filling.

Still, good of you to post an alert, OP.
