You could refuse the offer, but look like you felt for the trick... If this is a fraudulent scheme you became an accessory for their criminal enterprise
This is uncalled for. Biomech didnt ask a thing, and got offered a free miner. No one should be expected to refuse that based on a hunch this might be a scam.
I would however, be careful not to put too much weight on the results. Not that i have reason to suspect Biomech from being untruthful, its just that the ability of anyone to cram a few off the shelve technobit boards in a standard mATX case was never in question.
True enough, however it does at least show they are getting those boards and doing the assembly. I will make as thorough a report as I can when I get the thing. Current UPS estimate is monday, end of day.
Wait, if we all know that all they are doing with is taking off the shelf boards from their suppliers (either technobit or bitmine) then surely we expect them to be able to deliver.
The situation is entirely different from BFL. BFL had to not only conjure up the systems, they had to conjure up the chips themselves.
How hard is it to stuff boards in a case? I mean, many of these miners don't even have a case!
There's nothing wrong with this business model. I mean, that is what Michael Dell used to do in his dorm room.
