RE: eken io is selling the cheapest bitcoin and ethereum mining contracts

in #ekenio6 years ago (edited)

When an ad is simply copy/pasted as a post (like you did) and upvoted, it is reasonable to assume that someone associated with the scammers had posted it.

Sorry that you lost funds (I assume you meant that you invested 10TH/s, not 10GH/s). If you go to web.archive.org (which saves archives of websites), I found their contact us page (likely bogus), but they appear to be based in France. I don't speak French, but if you do (or know someone who does), perhaps you can go to search for and try to report them to the French police and/or Interpol.

In addition to the video warning that I posted (dated 3/31, so likely posted after you got ripped off), there was an additional warning posted around 3/19: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3111393.new. In this post, someone mentions that cryptocompare.com had actually vouched for their legitimacy (to justify their greed in accepting more advertising $ from them).

Again, sorry for your loss, and hope they are found and prosecuted.

I have similar posts related to Genesis, CCG, Hashflare and FreeBitco.in. So I should be associated with them too? Is it also very reasonable to think I am the CEO of Genesis-Mining? What do you say? May be I am the Mr Satoshi. I think I would be sleeping much easier if I had such a straight forward mind. If Aristotle has known you he would envy you :) .

Yes It was TH, GH was a typo.

I dont speak French nor I have the time to deal with reporting them.
This is not the first time I lost funds in crypto industry. In the total I managed to increase my funds since I dont put all the eggs in the same basket.

Yes, I got an advertisement email from cryptocompare.com and thats why I trusted eken io without inspecting it thoroughly. I read in some forums that they are selling mining contracts so cheap to have a wide user ground in the first few weeks. That seemed reasonable at that time.

This is crypto world, nothing is guaranteed, every reward comes with its risk. I was well aware of it when I invested.

FYI, when I eken io web page was on, I had 0 clickcs and 0 affiliate members from the link above.
