[EDU] Bitcoin-related Scam Websites

[ACCTseller]

Please add the scam site bitgold.com https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1133534.0

The site has a lot of red flags, however now someone behind it is creating a number of new accounts claiming they are not a scam and providing clearly inaccurate information about the site in order to make it appear to be more legitimate

edit: It might be appropriate to give it a "pending" tag, although it is suspicious to say the least

Please add the malware spreading site mining.ml (<<-- danger, do not click) to the list with a note that it tries to get users to download malware refrence.

I would also suggest to add a note to fastminer.net saying that the site contains malware (people may "sign up" and download the malware from the site thinking they have nothing to lose if it is a scam)

Please add BitPap.com , all informations has been provided on this topic : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1139596.0

After seeing so much of these websites and more new ones being listed.

I feel like 90% and only small 5% do legit business.. everything else is like throwing away your bitcoin.

They are not scam. I received 1 Bitcoin free from them.They are real.

first of all I also thought that it is unbelievable, but I got my Bitcoin and also got the refund in my paypal. May be they exchange small amounts but big amounts are risky to exchange with them also with any exchanger.

Always try with short exchanges. that leads to successful exchange.

Another phishing website which looks the same as Bitmixer.io (or almost)

I wouldn't say that this is a phishing site as the layouts and aesthetics are fairly different. This is likely just a different service.
Though, it is definitely shady/very lazy that they just copy pasted almost all of the text. Put this one on Pending perhaps.

Scam accusation : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1180957.0 (You will find announcement thread link inside)

I assume it's UP to you to decide weither it's a likely scam or not but I personally found it as a scam since OP promised to post a proof however he decided not to now without any reason .
