Important information
- Additional Info:BBB completed an investigation on the business after receiving a complaints from a consumer that referenced the business was in the Texarkana area for possibly running an illegal cryptocurrency cloud data mining service. Cloud mining allows you to mine cryptocurrencies like bitcoin without having to purchase the expensive hardware required to do so by allowing users to rent server space to mine for coins at a set rate.
This company has been verified to be a scam, victimizing people online with a fake cloud data mining service. The scam works by the scammer promising large returns but fails to disclose a range of hidden fees charged after the initial server rental. This allows the scammer to make the user pay more money to get out of the contract. The scammer also impersonated an International Monetary Fund representative trying to collect additional money to release the consumer's portfolio.
