I'm warning people about minersbit.com

The payouts are to high, and the few people that have managed to get to the minimum withdraw requirements said that the form does not work. I'm currently working my way up to the minimum, so I will update here what happens when i try withdrawing.

In the meantime, just don't buy their cloud mining services, whatever you do! Hope I helped someone avoid getting scammed.

I haven't bought into their cloud mining services, but I do use their faucet.  Haven't gotten to the minimum yet, but I noticed they cut the number of ads per day.  When I emailed them asking why they just denied their was a problem.

Here were my emails with them (bottom to top is the order recieved):


Dear sir.

We do not Intent IRC channel!
site will soon be finished chat wall and  forum.

and the company is not a scam checked and monitored
Verisign, BBB SiteLock

payment documents speak for themselves
10 users connected and mining

Minersbit ltd long-term
not a scam and will never be scam!

I wish you a nice day
respect
Katy Mc. staff


me:
Starting a quick IRC would be good because it would keep people knowing that it isnt a scam by talking to each other... unless it is a scam...


Them:
Dear Sir.
minersbit ltd serious company.
please check verisign and sitelock trust seal click.
welcome

Me:
the proof page does not confirm that you guys are legit... you could be sending them to yourselves... just a bit concerned that im getting scammed. any way to prove your legitimacy would be appreciated


Them:
Dear Sir!
Minersbit ltd valid and real company.
please check today withdraw proof, and verisign and sitelock business trust.

Have a nice day
welcome
Katy staff

Me:
How are us members able to know that you are legit? at the moment, it seems like you may not be, with all of the Bitcointalk threads being locked. The "proof of payment" page could just be you sending stuff to yourselves... Can you find a way to prove that you are legit?

Sketchy indeed.

When I signed up I never received the confirmation email. They have since removed it but it still asks for one sometimes.
I had to get them to manually reset my password twice before I could log in. Very poor support with weird english. They repeat the same cookie cutter bullshit constantly.

Then when I calculated the amount of BTC earned through their mining, and it makes no sense. They are giving away so much money that they could just be mining for themselves. But instead they are renting them for a profit waaaay less. Like 5+ times less.

I'll see what happens once I reach the minumum WD. I'm only at .023 now, I forgot about them.

If anyone has bought their mining let us know if you are ever able to withdraw...

please stay away from this website!!

i signed up 2 days ago,  using my email address and password, like an idiot i used the same password for my email as i did when signing up to miners bit.

i woke this morning to find my cryptsy account empty and my btc-e empty aswell., all coins where sold at a very cheap rate and withdrawn.

bit of a coincidence that i signed up with minersbit then had my accounts hijacked, looks like they accessed my email and got the relevant information.

they even had the cheek to delete the cryptsy withdrawal confirmation email.

I'm glad I used a random password when signing up. Noticed their home page says they've been hacked and they are asking for donations. Hope no one sends them any. Seems like a huge scam! I didn't spend any money their, just was trying their program to earn BTC.

I won't say I was blindsided but was lil tempted with high payouts but when i realized they have around 15k members it was obvious that they are not gonna pay , I mean 15000*0.006=90btc Daily , so i saw Red Flags everywhere.
