OregonMines Group Buy $399 Colocated SP20s CC's Accepted

[Nightshiftgirl]

About two hours after my first post I received this response

You are not expected to pay the invoice before the contract, sorry if you thought that's what was meant, I could have been clearer with that.

We are trying to get our system to automatically send the contract and invoice together. I'll have them wait to send them together, there are a few people working on it so it shouldn't take much longer.

For the underclocking, you would be billed for actual power used, the $1.92 per day is based on the 180/180/180/180 .67v settings. If you use less power the billing would be less if the underclock is at higher settings that use more power it would be higher. But this won't be a problem if you want it underclocked to the 180 + .67v


You should see the units appear on your primary or secondary pool if there's a problem with the primary shortly.


My Miner was on line and hashing at 1675 . I have not even paid him yet

Giving money to people who remain anonymous is more than risky. It is downright foolish.

And I am not going to BELIEVE a 56 post newbie who might actually be just another sock-puppet pushing sales for Oregon Mines. Sorry if I am being blunt but the question gets asked and never gets answered. Then low and behold someone buys in. That isn't suspect is it? We have seen this sort of pattern before.

If you do not know who the parties are involved then you are taking a big risk.

The owner of DG Rollins Mining LLC is very close to Matt Carson and is likely in contact with him without question or can contact him directly without issue. They have traveled to Israel and Hong Kong working deals for miners and have many dealings that are more than just buddy buddy up to an including the Minersource debacle.

Now if people are really keen on getting involved that is fine and apologize if my accusation is too blunt but let us be honest here NO NAMES of these people or ID's have been presented in order to verify them and heaven forbid you get scammed be able to report them to the right authorities. Also as mentioned before they could like Minersource just take a flyer.

You have been given fair warning.

I might be new but I resent you calling me names without knowing me. I am a 67 year old retired woman, trying to stay busy.  I was a senior VP and was quite busy and made a lot of decisions involving several millions at a time.  I also made good money and retired and was bored out of my mind. 

I have miners at home, but I can only have a few,

I have been staying busy studying Bitcoin, I have also purchased coin for a long position.

I have some money to play with and if I loose it all I do not care..  I have several miners with Lee in China,  I have  some hosted miners with asicspace here in Washington, and now I have a miner with Oregon Mines.  If it works out I will get more.  Risk is part of life. If I could not afford to loose the money I wouldn't play.    I have spent more than 500.00 for a hotel room in the past and will again in the future.

If I find other operations to host or purchase from it will be my decision

My risk is lower because I do not put all of my eggs in one basket.

I would suggest you get over yourself and your need to control the world.

Besides I need the tax write offs if the whole thing crashes.  If not my grand kids can have fun with the coin after I am gone
 
So this sock puppet says good night

This is small money I am playing with, but I have fun, and it keeps my mind busy learning new things

If this turns bad I will write about it but I have no need to tell others how handle their money,

Barbara we have seen this story before particularly with Technobit shills and sockpuppets saying how great the service and miners are then POOF! Many people get scammed.

Not sure why you would not expect someone to call out anyone just parachuting into this thread of all threads and plopping down money on a risky venture. Further ignoring the hundreds of thousands of dollars stolen from customers as a result of a close friend of the owner of Oregon Mines. It just begs the question can I really trust that you are who you say you are Barbara. I don't have to believe you no matter how angry you get at me. What I find funny is you do not even mention the possibility that Matt Carson is involved in this. I guess you have not been following the hardware section very long. Also you seem to ignore the fact his "friend" who runs Oregon Mines is basically ignoring the question being asked 'Is Matt Carson involved in this venture or anything to do with Oregon Mines?'

Again my apologies for being BLUNT but unless you are showing us sales receipts etc with some sort of ID to back it all up or someone unrelated to either Minersource or Oregon Mines can verify all this impartially, no one is going to take your word for any of it. Nor should they. Caveat Emptor extends beyond you it extends to anyone reading this thread with a good dose of skepticism. Your reputation is ZERO in this medium and unless you have done a lot of business prior to this with known members of this community who can be trusted why should we even believe what you post? It is a fair question to ask. Getting all angry at me won't shake that resolve to ask the right questions like who the hell are you and why should we trust you?

Hell Barb you could be Matt Carson's mom for all we know. Maybe you are just Matt Carson who knows. No one here knows you or Oregon Miners from a hole in the ground and given there is a relationship ongoing with Matt Carson you should be very worried about putting any funds at all in this investment. Again anyone reading this should do more to find out who is really behind this company get particulars and find out who they are in case they do run. That is just smart investing whether you Barbara take that advice I don't really care however I do care about anyone who might invest in basically a losing proposition that will never ROI. Do the math you'd be better off with Hashnest or other like services from PCfli who have a reputation for not RUNNING away with people's cash and who respond directly to questions. Do your homework people there is no deal here.

PCFLI https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=934581.0
HASHNEST https://www.hashnest.com/

* Full disclosure I do not rent from either PCFLI or HASHNEST.

While it's possible that the whole OM things is a fake, I don't think Barbara is. Just over in Lee's thread, she purchased one of the S5's from phillipma1957 for $380. Phillip made some money over his original $340 cost, and she did better than the current $419 from Lee. I am 100% certain that transaction took place based on Phillip's public comments.

I don't know how to respond to the whole Minersource connection. It just seems to me that Barbara is legit, and if it's a fraud, she'll lose her money. I think her reporting is accurate and we won't really know anything for at least a month. She'll be able to tell if her pool is delivering as expected, and even if they are a Ponzi scheme, they won't fold up shop for at least a month I would guess.

It's funny to me that one of the largest risks today with Bitcoin isn't technical, it's the entire lack of trust that permeates mining. All the technology embedded within crypto currencies, and it still boils down to trust.

[wpgdeez]

Barbara, I hope you understand that some of us have been around for quiet a while and have seen many people get scammed over the last couple of years. These thieves like to feed on new members and many of us have become fed up with this behavior and do what we can to try and educate others who may fall prey to these villains.

I hope you understand that we are not trying to tell you what to do, just give some solid advice. Best of luck, if you are not a sock puppet you sound like a very interesting lady. Best of luck to you.

[HerbPean]

Guys, all your warnings from your past experience is highly appreciated. That is why I choose Lee's service to try and experience with hosting outside my home.

Glad you guys want to share your fears of been scam with this hosting. This is one of the reason which I would not try their service.

Barbara, it's really cool that you decided to keep you occupied yourself with Bitcoin ! You should write down all your story from the start and share it with the community. ;-)

Best of luck !

Hi,
My first post on this forum was in November of last year.  I had just purchased a pair of U3 miners and I was clueless in how to get them to work, and nearly burnt my house down with the overheated power packs.

In December I purchased an s3+, S4, and a C1, I wanted to test and compare them.  I had a lot of trouble getting the S4, and C1 hashing, and got a lot of help from this forum.
But since being a member, I have become a little worried about the amount of negativity in the posts, I am not sure if it helps bitcoin if we all are so negative about everything.

There is no way I can prove I am not a sock puppet nor shrill for anyone.

I am currently up to 12T in hashing and looking to add more in the future. 

Bicknellski, I have three miners with PCFLI = Lee and will get more when the price comes back down
I do not use Hashnest or any other cloud service, because with physical equipment it can be amortized and used as a tax write-off. And have a real residual value to sell at a later time.
I never said I was vouching for Oregon Miners.

 I am simply reporting on my experience with them.  If I get ripped of you will know if I don’t you will also know.  Proceed at you own risk.  I don’t actually ever recommend where anyone should invest, you need to figure your own odds of winning and what the risk is.

I am not Matt Carson’s mom, I have a daughter, son in-law and three wonderful granddaughters’ in another state. One of my Granddaughters is in College.

Alh  I agree 100% with you
“It's funny to me that one of the largest risks today with Bitcoin isn't technical, it's the entire lack of trust that permeates mining. All the technology embedded within crypto currencies, and it still boils down to trust”

Wpgdezz, I don’t mind the warning at all, it being judged as a sock puppet or shrill that got my attention. Its hard to accept advice from someone who thinks you are a fake.

HerbPean  Thank you for  your response, I trusted people on Lees thread vouching for him, especially Phillipma1957 who seems to be very level headed and was a pleasure to deal with.

I apologize for long post, but I feel at this moment I need to respond.  This forum is important to me and I have learned an immeasurable amount of information here.  Unfortunately when I first started reading the posts, I almost did not venture a toe into Bitcoin.  But I have never been one to follow the herd.  So happy mining, trading or holding,

Barbara

yeah it did really happen she purchased 1 from me was polite >  I won't show any pm's but she is real enough to send me  the coin.

for 1 s-5 hosted by lee in  china.  She also made purchases from lee before buying mine .

As for OregonMines I have chosen to not buy any.  I also am in the process of using the funds sent to me by Nightshiftgirl and 3 others buyer to repair or replace my Furnace's chimney.

Bick I know you try to point out bad sellers and have picked some bad ones correctly. I think NightshiftGirl is a legit customer.  I think OregonMines is spotty  without a good track record.

I think she is fine with 1 item but not 10 items with them at this point. After Oregonmines shows they are good or bad she can add more machines or chose to not add anymore.

Regardless.

The fact remains Oregon Mines is suspect and not very forthcoming with regards to Matt Carson's involvement.

1 purchase is not really something to build a reputation on for Oregon Miners especially given their very close relations with Matt Carson. You don't take trips with Matt Carson to Hong Kong to see Black Arrow with the owner of Oregon Mines in tow or Spondoolies in Israel as a lark. There is a lot more going on here than a few private units for sale and rent.

Again let me apologize for being blunt with Barbara. If she is a legitimate customers then fine but we have seen the long con before with faux / shill accounts that promote company XYZ for payment etc and then basically attempt to boost sales when there is obviously problems.

Now I am still not giving Barbara the benefit of the doubt yet but I will extend my hand and say that if you are not a shill or sockpuppet then please understand that others who might want to deal with this company in larger orders etc could be getting set up for a loss even if your 1 miner deal is all roses and petunias.

We have yet to see any REPLY about Matt Carson's involvement and again I am certain that the owner of Oregon Miners is in contact or can contact Matt Carson at any point. So those seeking restitution from Matt Carson should contact the owner.

Well, earlier in the thread I explained that I purchased from them, you can read about my experience, fwiw.

[Nightshiftgirl]

Bicknellski, I really do not know what to say to you, but your mom should have a talk with you about judging others without knowing anything about them

This is the PM I just sent to Oregon Mines.

Okay here is the deal, I am beginning to feel you are gaming people.  You did send the contract finally two days after the bill.

It has several areas that I had questions on.  You have not replied to my questions. 
Nor was the contract signed by you or did it indicate who would sign it.
 Earlier today I asked for the service agreement to go with the contract.  There has been no reply. 

I have asked why you sign messages as OM and not a real name. You have not replied.

As I have stated I will not make payment until every thing is signed and sealed

You are welcome to turn off my miner and cancel my order if you can not issue a valid contract that we can both enforce in court if needed.

We've gotten kinda callous from all the scams,I don't think Bick intended to be malicious or rude,he just had doubts.I have been around here since June 2011 & have seen almost every type of scam & seeing newer ones all the time,we are very leery of "too good to be true" or "Just trust me".

You seem to have a very good grasp on things,I applaud your "to the point" reply there  

Best of Luck to you NSG !!

[Bicknellski]

Bicknellski, I really do not know what to say to you, but your mom should have a talk with you about judging others without knowing anything about them

My mom has better things to do Barbara than coach a 45+ year old man. Insulting me and how my Mom raised me is not the point and has nothing to do with the potential harm this company could do others. Your passive aggressive taunts are misplaced. Use it on Oregon Miners they are the ones here who are circumspect not me.

Again I don't know you and that is the POINT. Who would trust you? I do not see a long reputation of purchases so I will as I said before not trust you and your 'purchase' with these people as any indication that they are LEGIT. Obviously you are getting the run around by them that is a typical thing that Minersource and Technobit were both famous for. You have been warned.

I am going to ignore you from this point forward problem solved for you and me.

----

Does Matt Carson still work with you in any capacity Terrence Thurber (Owner of DG Rollins Mining)? When you called me on the phone the same day I posted the first time here you didn't answer that question and you still are not answering here.

Your travels to Black Arrow and Spondoolies together is a clear indication that you have had a long and close business relationship and it would be best if you were to help out those who lost money from Minersource to have a contact number of Matt given you have it Terrence.

Thanks for the update. Are you going to run your SP20 at "full speed" or are you planning a "downclock" reduced hosting cost arrangement?

[Nightshiftgirl]

I am running at full speed for now. i will watch it and see.   I kind of average my hosting costs and currently have miners in 4 places some cost more but I have some for .06 and some for .12.  I think this works out to
To about .10

I am going to call BULLSHIT on nightshiftgirl.
Every god damn time a female username pops up on these forums its part of a scam.

She is 100% fake and the reason I say that is for the following facts:

1 - she is a female
2 - 67 years old
3 - her name is Barbara
4 - she is into bitcoin mining
5 - only 62 posts


Oregonmines are you ever trying???

For a second I thought I was reading "shemale"  and it quickly made my own mind go like "Wow! The percentage of world's shemale population at 67+ age into bitcoin mining but with only 62 posts definitely makes her/him quite special." :-)

Note to myself: read a bit more slowly...
