Alpha Technology Litecoin (Scrypt) ASIC Miner Order Batch 1 Now!

[allcoinminer]

Hi, Ive been away from the community for a while, I remember these guys months ago offering their scrypt miners and I thought it looked a little dodgy. Can anyone give me some cliffs on whats happened? Have they shipped any miners yet?

If you look at the last two pages you will find what happened.
They just collected money from customers and kept postponing the delivery date.
In the last update, they informed us that they will deliver by early october.
But this time rather than postponing the delivery, they just disappeared.
Now the customers paid are doing claim process via court in various measures.

Almost a week late on their already late update about the chips, which were supposed to have been assembled and shipped out a week prior to all of that.

Everything operating normally, nothing to see here.

So having paid in BTC and in the US...I'm basically screwed right?

You can get a UK address and sue them. When you win you'll get a judgement against them for the money they owe you. I don't know how easy it is to hold their hands to the fire in order to force them to make good on the court order. Good luck, lots of instructions out there. Don't let them get away with this. There is no good reason why they can't just be honest with people. People understand shit happens, but they don't get it. Their silence speaks much louder than any bad news. It speaks of deceit and malicious intent.

Is it the same if I paid in BTC and in Asia? (Philippines)

It shouldn't matter where you're located. As long as you can comply with the U.K. court's instructions you should be covered. It sounds like they require a U.K. address which can be rented from a mail box store. I would assume all of the mail would be automatically forwarded to where you are located. Since you are using a U.K. address in court it shouldn't matter what country you're from. Someone please confirm?

Just posting some more stuff from their website, before it changes, in case it's useful for anyone. I have a feeling it will any day now.

Red - Here they claim to have already made the first Scrypt miners, which is factually false -- unless they're lying about something to their customers ...

Green - They're handling customer support. Based on how they've mistreated folks all year, this alone should put them behind bars. Abominable at best.



And, just a reminder of what you guys were sold on:

Where have they gone interesting ... all fled? On November 3 and not any news.

I returned 30% although I did not ask and did not give their consent. and 70% do not know what will.

they sent you money without you asking for it or agreeing to it?

Yup.. 2 weeks late--again--on their next exciting update. No  news for pretty much a month since their chips were created and began assembly.

Look under Step3 (page10) of the mcol quickstart guide (http://www.justice.gov.uk/downloads/courts/mcol-quickstart-guide.pdf) It says:
"Correspondence address If you registered as an individual / organisation This should be your correspondence address. You only need to complete this screen if the address you have already provided is outside of the United Kingdom. Your service address must be within the United Kingdom in order to use MCO"
So you can file your claim even if you are not from UK.

Has anyone already won a case against alpha except the user "chopsbit"?? Do they pay or do we need to send bailiffs to collect payment?

No, by now there hasnt been any judgment passed (based on law).

Yes there has. Go back and read the thread. Alpha have gone dark and are ignoring judgements and haven't been at the office for months, so getting payment is the problem not getting a judgement.

are you surprised?

[jrose120]

I still say they built the miners, tricked you all into thinking it was full of delays and have been mining the crap out of them. It's the only way the can come out ahead in all of this. Or, they have been beyond incompetent wasted the funds and are victims of their own stupidity.

I'm 100% sure they won't have good news. It would mean they have to stop using the chips they supposedly built. Everyone of their customers has been bent over doggy style. Why would they all of a sudden change that? There will never be good news from these predators.

A friend of mine considered Alpha's refusal to refund and their current silence and failure to produce anything as reason to believe they are seeking to defraud him, so he filed a fraud report with actionfraud.police.uk
