Apologies.

anyone confirm that bitmanusa.com is a scam?
Looks like it.After checking out the site thoroughly,I figured out the site is poorly designed for running a hardware selling business.And the suspicious part,only one address is staked with a pub key to send money to
...
Possibly run by an individual and not the team as displayed on the site.If I was you,I'd dare not to send any bitcoins to that address.
Has this site scammed anything from anyone? I don't know about adding something to this list without them actually stealing something.



You should add Genesis-Mining.com

It is a confirmed scam / fraud (check my thread if you are unsure we have plenty of testimonies) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1185909.msg12482453#msg12482453
I support this member. Genesis Mining should definitely be on the list to remove doubt to people who are new to bitcoin mining. Many websites still  promote it as a legit company, but a few websites have exposed it as an unethical company, e.g.
1.  https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@wisdomx44/scam-alert-do-not-invest-in-genesis-mining
2.  http://kipicommunity.org/genesis-mining-review-is-it-profitable-to-mine-with-genesis-mining/
I was considering not adding this simply due to it being the customer's duty to be sure that their investments are profitable, however since it seems to be more a case of false advertising and there are multiple references I will add it. Thanks.



Bitport.net Is A Scam Web Site...
Added to the list. Thanks again.



Scam exchange  site   coinmango.com   
Please provide some reference/source for your accusation, preferably in the form of a thread in Scam Accusations and I will consider adding it to the list.



Bitgold is still in pending list , even though you added it to the official one. I recommend adding "Goldmoney.com" too, as It's the new name of "Bitgold.com" . If people googles first , chances that they will search using the new name are higher so It's better to add both names.
Fixed and added. Thank you.



Please add the following scam sites to this list:

Torwallet.com - onion link: 3hinuo4cve4pdysb.onion
bitcointumble.com - onion link: d5zy5343sr4gonmu.onion
BitcoinCloudMiner.net

reference and explanation for all of the above links

Thank you!
Torwallet is already on this list, however I have added the clearnet addresses of the other two sites to the list with the reference specified. I haven't added the .onion addresses as I was told previously that said addresses change often. Can you confirm this? Thanks.
