Just to let other miners know I got scammed for some bitcoin mining machines I thought I was buying from alibaba.com. I thought I was buying Avalon 2 400gh/s mining machines. I have used alibaba several times for other types of products and have had good success with it. I did not even think of the fact that I would get scammed (so naive).
They got me for $7800 ($2600 x 3 machines)
Joy_Chen1985@163.com is the email
I spoke with the company that I thought I was buying from and they told me 400gh/s machines are not even out yet. I did not know that.
I got a few other quotes via email.....turns out they were all scammers (4 other emails total)
So, just wanted to let my fellow miners know about this problem and I hope no one else makes the stupid mistake like I did. This was my first investment into mining equipment and they took all my funds I had saved up. Sucks. I guess it could of been worse....but still....I am disgusted over the whole thing. I tend to learn my lessons the hard way.....this lesson sure did hurt!
So bottom line.......BE CAREFUL if your buying any equipment from alibaba.com! I hope someone who happens to think of doing the same thing I did reads this and doesn't lose there money. I now found a couple companies in the U.S. that are reliable sources for equipment. Wish I found them before I placed the order.......coulda....woulda.....shoulda.
Anyways.....back to counting my pennies to try and get me a real mining machine.
