You didnt reply to him here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1499333.20 for a long time which can lead to people making assumptions and you did not post anything on here as well to defend your website: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1615961.0

To clarify, i'm not saying your website is definitely a scam but it was apparent from the forum posts at the time.

Hi,

I've been seeing that cryptocurrency is used again and again for scams against Indians in this forum, outside and in the real world.

We can see trybitcoin.in and scams like that being actively promoted
We can see MLM scams being promoted like gainbitcoin and powerhashing
We can see coins like Mudra coin ruining India's name in the bitcoin community here
We can see people selling miners with false claims for exorbitant prices
We can see other forums like Quora being used to promote MLM and ponzi schemes
We can see in real life people being scammed to start investing in false cryptocurrencys.
Yet the educated cryptocurrency community here does very little.

Posts which are promoting sites such as trybitcoin.in should be flagged, trust should be negative and their posts should be removed.
Any allegations against coins (mudra, trestor) should be taken seriously and their teams should come up with relevant and responsible replies.
We should have pinned posts and posts with lists of scams as well as guides for new people to cryptocurrencies, informing how to find if a coin is a scam and a list of verified scam coins/sites as well as a guide on ponzi schemes
Coins like Mudra should be scrutinized and reported as soon as it is posted!

For Quora, I found that specially these two Indians are dedicated completely to get people into Ponzi schemes and they then get referral money - and they do it from highly educated individuals.

Here are some scams from those two troublemakers on Quora - and look at the comments - people actually believe them and lose money!

https://www.quora.com/What-are-the-biggest-mistakes-youve-made-in-your-career-development-or-job-choices/answer/Asma-Khan-47?srid=tno3 - when she said Hashocean is the best
https://www.quora.com/What-are-some-of-the-Indian-Scams/answer/Asma-Khan-47?srid=tno3 - now she says its a scam
https://www.quora.com/Is-cloud-mining-of-bitcoins-or-other-crypto-currencies-a-scam/answer/Asma-Khan-47?srid=tno3 - now wants ref money from genesis mining
There are much more, look at her profile: https://www.quora.com/profile/Asma-Khan-47

Take a look at Shishir too:
https://www.quora.com/How-can-I-earn-huge-by-mining-bitcoins-at-home-using-my-own-hardware - Endorsing Asma
https://www.quora.com/What-is-business-to-do-with-1lakh-or-below-capital - Promoting Genesis with ref code
He even made a video endorsing hashocean: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oXk9jFIn4gg


And they dub themself as research scholars on Bitcoin

Lets create a healthy cryptocurrency community here

Expect around 1.2 usd on average by mining with this, and upon that you will also have a electricity cost which you have to cover. Make sure price is reasonable if anyone buys this, and make sure the unit is working before you buy. Calculate profitability from a website like coinwarz and use scrypt algo.

It was a scam, if you didnt find out yet.

Bitcoin has benefited from the Brexit this year, the coin halving, and various other economic troubles which lead investors to try alternate investments.
However it has also suffered a lot from the Bitfinex hacking and such.

All three have good service, while each do have their own unique features (Coinsecure with automated trading, Zebpay with vouchers, recharge, etc and Unocoin with VAS and SIP option)

For cheapest rate, always use coinsecure.in/ they show the real rate, even if their competitor offers a better selling/buying price.

Regardless if it was hacked or not, it wont hurt to change your password to a stronger one!

The point of this post is not relevant as nothing yet has happened which would prove or even support the allegations.

Should this not be moved to the marketplace, as you are selling debit cards and your service?

and its always useful to use the price comparison on coinsecure.in to check the best price, which is quite a few times ironically not coinsecure 

There is a trestor coin made in India, but its currently not completely free of allegations - but I think it's the closest thing to what you are referring to.

No, you wont get any even 'okay' returns with any sort of USB ASIC miner as of today.

I dont see anything particularly unique about it

Why do you invest in such sites

I have been mining Ether since February, and I had mined bitcoin few years ago. Any questions, feel free to PM.

I started mining ether in February - You can ask me any questions.

There is no way that a alternative fork will gain majority (at least in the current situation and time)
