Today a person contacted with me with the request for help.
He told me that he was scammed by the website euro-miners.com and asked me if I can help him with getting his money back.

I couldn’t reject his request for help, so I visited the website in question.

Everything seemed decent, except the fact that they are looking very similar to others SCAM websites I came across the time.  
The second thing that caught my eye is that they had every miner and video card in stock (there are some miners with 40 units in stock). I got suspicious and started my investigation.
Like always the first thing I did is to check in whois.com register to find out when the domain has been registered ( https://uk.godaddy.com/whois/results.aspx?domain=euro-miners.com ) and my fears were justified, they were registered pretty soon (2021-01-12T03:41:28Z), like you can see in the information below:

In the website euro-miners.com, they claim to be located in UK, but the address they provide in their website is fake and so is the phone number.
I tracked their address on google and found out that it is connected to other companies and not theirs. Next, I tried to call their number, but it turned out that it doesn’t exist.
I searched through their whole website, but couldn’t find a company connected to it.
On the checkout page I notice that they only accept BTC as a form of payment. Which is a clear sign that they are thieves.

After my suspicions were confirmed what caught my attention was that the Registrant information was not hidden. They must have made a mistake and had forgotten to hide it.

The company who registered the domain is based in Bulgaria.  Of course, the next step was to check who is ‘’Got it Ltd’’ and what they do.
I found their website ( https://www.wegotit.io ) and they claim to develop websites for online trade, which is exactly what I was looking for, because if they are the SCAM team behind every other fraudulent website then that means that I’m on the right track. I looked up their company in google and found their account in a Bulgarian website called Jobs.bg (https://www.jobs.bg/company/270150). I must say that getting the website in English was a little tricky, but I managed. On this page I was able to find very useful information, namely their UIC, Address and phone number.

- UIC: 205139917
- Address: Maritsa 154A blv. Plovdiv, Bulgaria
- Phone number: +359897953363


Knowing their UIC (EIK in the website) I then searched through the Bulgarian registry agency (https://portal.registryagency.bg/) and was able to find this: https://portal.registryagency.bg/CR/Reports/ActiveConditionTabResult?uic=205139917 – their listing in the registry.
On point 7 you can see the manager of the company (CEO) – Kalin Manchev Diev.

I searched who is this person and found his profile in a social media, from which I found a photo of him. You can see it here: https://ibb.co/mcshVC7
I believe that this criminal group based in Bulgaria is behind many other scam operations in the past. This time they have made a fatal mistake, which I believe will be enough to put them in jail, where they deserve to be.

Does anyone know a way to report these criminals to the authorities like FBI and Europol?

Also is anyone able to support me in this venture of bringing them to justice and share this information as far and wide as possible so that nobody else gets scammed by these people and they get what they deserve?

Just in case I have documented the information that I have found, in the situation they decided to delete anything or try to hide their trace (like they have failed to do so until now).
Their company website - https://web.archive.org/web/20210331130428/https://www.wegotit.io/
The scam website - https://web.archive.org/web/20210331130814/https://euro-miners.com/contact-us/

This is only the beginning of my investigation. I'll continue to uncover more facts and information about this case and criminal group.

Ah another scam miners site in the market is making fool the people. As I also said sometime that there are lot of miners scam sites are scamming people recently. During this bull market scammer targets the users who are interested in mining.

You did a great job and gave an good efforts to investigate about this scam site. So thanks for that and keep the work up.

Here is some info about FBI report details: https://www.ic3.gov/

Good job newbies or new member of this forum should be like you, know how to look or do an investigation if all members are like, there will be fewer scam sites and scammers will have a limitation on who they can scam, education is the key that will help us to fight these scammers when it comes to investing in Cryptocurrency awareness is a big factor.

Unfortunately it's true -- I came to the same conclusion/research -- they are Bulgarian scammers. It was pretty clear once they emailed me in broken English and their IP originating from Bulgaria.

I have lodged a complaint to Google (in response to a "sponsored result" from euro-miners) and GoDaddy on March 26th.

FBI should not be needed. I think if you can fill in a complain at your local law enforcement (and perhaps tip the Bulgarian law enforcement), new people may be prevented from being scammed.

Thank you all for the support and for the kind words.

I will continue looking for SCAM websites and report them here, as I always do.

Hopefully justice is brought upon euro-miners.com and they get what they deserved !
