Hi guys
Can you tell me where I can find few good ethereum faucets?
thanks

here claim in this

http://ethereumfaucet.info

This one is a scam too, I was using this faucet for about 6 month and now I've got this error message :

"Your claim has been refused. This may be due to accessing the faucet via a VPN; or your IP, network, or other identifying information, which has been blacklisted due to spam, bots or other fraudulent activities."

I'm not using any vpn or bots, I'm just claiming normally from my isp ip address while I'm working...

This faucet is a scam don't use it !

Before you start yelling scam make sure it actually is a scam.
I have recently gone through the process of installing ip filters on my faucets which means I have some insight in the matter. It is pretty common to use a third party service for the ip filtering and while doing this you rely upon the data passed by the third party service.
So, if the screening service is blacklisting your ip, itll be blacklisted without the faucet owner having done anything.
If you are using dynamic ip supplied by your ISP, it might have been abused by some previous user on your network? So, your ip being blocked could be perfectly legit and both you and the publisher can be innocent of any wrongdoing.
I suggest contacting the faucet owner regarding the problem.
Now its very possible that it is a scam, but unless you actually investigate, youre just being pissy because you got locked out.
So, in short... Do your due diligence before you start yelling scam.
This will help making this a better experience for everyone.
