Bitcoin miner? isn't that domain is another ponzi? I may be wrong but IIRC i remember some site with those domain and is pretty similar with bitminer.io

Looks like scam, based on this thread Avoid auto-buy links, mainly locked or self moderated. Register before dealing every self moderated or locked topic and use autobuy link is mostly scam. I can't say if that service is scam since i never buy it, but just be safe.

the same domain were selling equipment or something else in past and it was down, since thread here were saying it's scam, seems someone else bought it and offer something else.

Agree with you, we can't assume, that's why I created this thread, as the original thread is locked, everyone has issue with that user he might step-up and write here.

List of red flags:

• Op's trust history suggests people to don't transact with him
• His site is still new, has no reviews and anonymous
• This is probably a weak reason but people who's really serious in establishing a business would dedicate a decent amount of money for it.
  That's why I'm doubting op's sincerity, he can't even buy a proper domain?? (Still my intuition tells it's the same owner and there was really no transferring)

If that isn't enough to stay away, I don't know what is  .

As cissrawk said, those who do that can't be trusted. Remember, a serious merchant would always provide transparency.

Generally, people wouldn't be scammed if they used an escrow or transacted with a trusted user. As for transactions outside forum (other sites), always do a BG check - use google. If you don't know how to or isn't confident on how you do things, you could always ask other people, just like what you did just now op.

There is no chance that this is a legitimate site.

He's selling $100 Amazon Gift Cards for 50% off. The first huge warning sign is that they're a company selling gift cards at steep discounts. This is logically not possible. If the cards were legit and the owner was actually legit as well and plans on delivering it to you, wouldn't he just use it himself or sell it for more on the open market instead of marking it 50% off? Either the cards are fraudulent (carded), or, more likely, you'll simply get scammed once you send over your funds.

Don't use the site. There are similar scams in the past, with gift card selling sites. Buying from that site means that you have to send first without escrow as well, which is a big no. The locked and self moderated thread are also warning signs.
