    How much more did they want, and what were they saying it was for

    Was it just the price was incorrect or something else

    Ah damn. Sorry to hear abt that shitty situation. Too many scams going on right now that we all have to be wary about. I hope you manage to find a way to get those funds back.

    When truth dies, trust dies with it
    Then all of its friends and relatives
    like honesty, kindness, compassion,
    good and right, dont last long

    We are living in a moral vacuum,
    where our politicans and world leaders
    now set such a bad example that
    these kind of scams are the new norm,
    Where it does not matter what you
    do, and to whom you do it, as long
    as your winning...right...winning...
    its all about MONEY, if you got it
    your right, no matter how many
    people you screw over along the way

    We have to try to change this world
    or we will all end up just like them
    either learn to spot theirs scams, lies
    and fake news...or end up its servant



    If you have not seen the latest 4 corners
    about the deals that trump is making in
    Indo Neessia, this sh#t starts at the top

    Please excuse my rant, had a few reds

    Also may be worth ringing empire electrics in brooklyn ny
    they seem to share the same address as the bitcoin-expert
    its a long shot, but they may have heard of them

    cheers grant

    Well that just straight out Suck's to hear Ellias, in future this sort of crap on the blockchain will not be able to exist with the advent of Smartcontracts returning the funds to the sender in this sort of event.
    Unfortunately for now though it is still a bit like the Ole Wild West out there at the moment, and people are getting scammed every day of the week still.

    I personally use Paypal for all these types of transactions unless I have dealt with them hassle free previously, even with a surcharge on some sites and places the added peace of mind is well worth it knowing that you have at least some sort of comeback.

    How about this for a idea I'm thinking if I buy 2 L3+ miners from then via credit card hopefully they'll send them if they do I can do a charged back for the other 2 and if they don't I can always do a charge back

    I rang empire electrics and asked are they bitcoin experts and they said I have the wrong number all the other 2 numbers go to messsage

    They wanted .13btc but it didn't as up

    On their site 2 miners plus psu were less than 1.5btc which I paid them

    I kept asking them to clarify why they want a extra .13 but was just getting the cold shoulder in terms please pay so we can process the order

    I got in again today and was dealing with one when the original lady Anna stepped and literally just ignored me for an hour

    You might end up with more losses if your credit card company doesn't side with you, so that's an awfully big risk there.

    How legit is this company? Did you find any negative reviews of them online?

    Ok, what did they say the extra was for, like postage or you hadnt paid enough

    they also seem to use in intermediatry to handle their coin payments, that site lists
    who they provide services for, It does not mention bitcoin-expert, It may be
    worthwhile contacting them and explain things to them

    The price of the l3+ has been reduced to $1950, elissa you should have waited
    and not got one at a cheaper price...joking rite

    I could also put 50 units in my checkout, so they must have got new stock in..
    yeah rite

    so I went on their online questions and asked if i could pick a miner up and pay cash

    here is the reply

    [​IMG]
    thanks




    You — Please update your info
    so do you occupy the address that your website states


    seems they dont want to talk about where they live


    I was going to buy an antrouter ltc for $40 odd, and buy
    it with paypal, that way we should be able to find out
    a bit more about this company, but I would have to
    enter my real details, and I am not too keen on this

    any more luck working this through
