[ANN] CLOUDMINR

[Abiky]

It's been around 2 weeks since cloudminr.io has been shutdown. They said it would take around 2-3 weeks until they make a new site, so I'm waiting until it's been week number 3.

But as it seems, I have the feeling that they would never come back so that means I'll never get my ROI back. 

If you'd read the first few pages of this thread, you'd know that the whole "cloudmining" was a scam.... sorry to take away your hope...

Yeah. I thought of that. I became too greedy thinking that my profits would skyrocket with such a service. Anyways, I've learned a valuable lesson. The next time I invest in a cloud mining site, I'll make sure that such service provides pictures of mining farm and mining address/proof of mining. Thanks for your reply

I had registered an account with cloudminr.io with a thow-away-e-mail, so I was able to log in and see if there is anything useful for getting information. However, I never invested a dime since I was convinced from the very beginning that it is a scam.

However, now the story becomes interesting.

I used a throw-away-email.
I used a fake name.
I used a fake address.

Now I received an e-mail from Bitfinex saying that my account has been opened.

Good. I never applied for an account. So it seems that cloudminr has opened it. Or someone who bought their information.

Bitfinex: How is it possibl that you opened an account for a fully fictious person? On your homepage you write:

So there was no KYC nor any AML-process needed to open an account?

This stinks. And I'd like to get some answers from Bitfinex...

I queried Bitfinex.com and got the following reply from them:

"Hello Casper

It seems someone acquired a large list of email addresses from some external source and is using that list to programatically register accounts at Bitfinex.com.

We have stopped this person to generate any additional accounts, unfortunately only after he used your email address to create a unauthorised account.

We will delete the account associated to your email address as soon as possible and we hope you accept our apologies for the inconvenience caused.

We hope this response has sufficiently answered your questions. If you don't have any additional questions or comments regarding ticket #822338, the ticket will automatically be closed. If you do need further assistance feel free to reply to this email.

Well, even with this response, the question remains: How is it possible to open accounts only with an e-mail address and trade through these accounts. This obviously, happened, and if the screenshot posted here before is true, even a quarter of a daily Bitfinex-trade can be transferred to a fake account. These guys have a problem....

I know this is probably the wrong place to ask.. BUT:

Does anyone know of / can recommend anywhere I can *rent* hashpower from long-term but have them mining to MY pool ?

[Abiky]

Well, you could try Beta Rigs. You can rent hashrate from a variety of miners. They will mine directly to your pool. All you have to do is give them the pool details (user, pass, etc) Link: www.betarigs.com

also you can rent from nicehash/westhash or miningrigrentals
i usually rent miner from there. when you need fixed priced you can use miningrigrentals. and for dynamic price which is you can set price you can use nicehash/westhash

Fuck you bastard! Which one could be more bastard than you?

The original post will be deleted because it's ref spam, but will still be seen because you quoted it. 

[n2004al]

Oh no! The bastard is joking with us. The jackass it's convicted that someone will join his offer and will download his malware to have 0.5 bitcoin for free. Very, very smart person. I bet that after a while me first will join and will create two accounts to have 1 bitcoin for free.

Please don't spam here with another scam.. if you really want to advertise another cloud mining don't do it here, because people in this thread just got scammed by cloudminr so they won't go into another scam. You can try to advertise your link via AdBit.co, MellowAds and sites like this.

[xeryan]

fastminer.net is a known malware spreader and spammer

This guy also posted the same thing again in another thread. Take a look at this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=199415.5280 I wouldn't trust investing in such services. I've made my mistakes investing in cloudminr so I'm not falling for such schemes again.

He is spamming this message to everywhere in bitcointalk. Go to its profile and see his posts. Maybe are 100 or more times that he is writing this message to various threads. It is not a cloud mining service. It is a malware.

[BitcoinNewsMagazine]

Spamming affiliate links is one thing but spreading malware should get his account banned and messages deleted to prevent damage to others.

[xeryan]

I don't understard where the admins are. Even with a virus diffuser they don't ban?

[n2004al]

I reported its message and his profile immediately after his post. Let's see if will be baned.

[Amadues]

I reported its message and his profile immediately after his post. Let's see if will be baned.

for instance leave a red trust to report also to other members, in some scenario an user like to try more way of scam, and a red warning is good to avoid others scams.

it's fine, seems admins deleted that user already? what's his profile link, I'll -ve if it's still up

[tmfp]

The mods are doing their stuff, deleting about 100 of these bot posts made within a couple of minutes of each other. The account has been compromised so no point in red trusting it.

The original post will be deleted because it's ref spam, but it will still be seen because you quoted it.  

If you want to be constructive and not just moan, edit your posts and then it's gone. Simple.

It is sad people like from cloudminr exists

It is sad people like from cloudminr exists

I agreed with you, as long people/websites like these exist, the BTC is far away to be a trusted currency, so far the most trusted way to "farm" BTC is faucets, well one of the "trusted" way...
