Regarding bcaworldteampool.com

socalguy

It has been brought to my attention by someone who wants to remain anon that BitCloud Academy might be giving out false information regarding Burst. I have been told the following,

A group of people from Germany get people into Burst, tells them normal harddrives break within 3 weeks if they mine burst, and they need to buy their 4 tb harddrives for 1300-1400$ and they mine in their pool.

I was also shown this image

,

The only German that I know is nein, so if anyone can translate this image I would be greatly thankful. ^_^

I was also informed that the website is https://www.bitcloudacademy.com/index.php

For now, I don't know if this is a scam or not. I'm just the messenger. I would like to gather all details before concluding.

I am creating this thread as a log of what is found and discussed. I would like to see if @bcapool can chime in on this thread

Is bitcloudacademy the "bca" in bcaworldteampool? Never knew that.

Here we go again. Another controversy.

@socalguy According to google translate,
The burstcoin mining is difficult to understand for newcomers, but easy to implement through our technology and education. With our basic package (1250 euro = 4 tb hard disk + training package) you produce an average of 3000 coins per month. The value of coins is increased by the number of miners.

@newsense2004 haha I know right? But perhaps this is just a misunderstanding. I don't know. That's why I want to create a thread and keep the info in the open and not in private chats. I hope we can find out the facts.

i see a lot of _BCA accounts there mining there now

rds

Not sure why this is a bad thing? They put together a package of a 4TB drive and instructions on how to mine. I see they have quite a few customers already on the bcaworldteampool. What am I missing?

falconCoin

the webpage i see is in english

@rds From what I was told, they are telling everyone that hard drives break in three months while mining for Burst. Also, if they want to mine at that pool, then they have to buy a hard drive from them (1300-1400$). I was told, everyone with a _BCA at the end had to buy a hard drive from them in order to mine on the pool.

rds

@socalguy, so they stepped in front of the good, free info available here and upsold them the "premium" package. Caveat Emptor.

I mined there for a few days with my old junkie Hdds, not many blocks being hit there, yet!!

so if the bca pool is linked to this the thread should be removed and warned as a pool run by people looking to make a quickbuck

Mining on their pool is independent of buying their products. If burst.ninja is run by timeshare salesmen, should they also be flagged as quickbuck artists?

socalguy

That's the thing. I just have what the anon said and that image. He told me that he will give me more info later. Maybe even some recordings or the webinar where they gave out this info.

I would hate to label something when it turns out to be false. I'll know more later.

For now, if anyone is considering mining on the pool or investing with them, to just wait a day and let the truth come out.

falconCoin

they have been paying out daily i have been using them sine i was like the 4th or 5th miner... i haven't been to the page for a few days its a huge jump in miners tho

haitch

@socalguy I've been talking to the anon as well. This was a pool I setup for him - if it's being used for what would be basically a scam in providing false information, and "buy our much better drives at 8x retail" - I'm going to be pissed.

im sure my opinion may be wrong, but i am not sure the pool is a scam, but they may be overpricing stuff to ppl to earn more money. But as far as the pool paying out etc and doing what it is supposed to, is it a scam or just someone making money off uninformed ppl?

i hate to say it but it is 2017 if those ppl can't take 2 minutes and investigate BURST and HDD's then they have to take some blame, the info is on the web.

socalguy

@falconCoin True but it would be very bad if they took advantage of everyone because the buyer so of the hard drives did not know how to read in English.

I was also just informed that the rest of the material would be shown to @daWallet.

tross

I doubt it a scam but it sure is almost as good as robbing them. I bought a couple used hdd in Germany with mega hours I think they have 80k hours together and have mined a year with them. The people dont understand you plot one time then it read read read and they are taking advantage of this.

@socalguy break within 3 weeks is a joke, i don't know who is promoting that. CRAZY
