Use these payment-security rules:

• We do not change bank details or wallet addresses by email. If details change, stop and call 01429 408034 using the number on this page.
• Use only payment details shown at checkout or on an official invoice from @theminingshop.co.uk.
• Card and alternative methods are processed through the secure checkout providers displayed on www.theminingshop.co.uk. Availability and limits vary by order.
• Never pay a personal account, gift card, social-media contact or unapproved escrow service.
• Read our Payments Policy before transferring funds.

• Fake brokers and middlemen who claim to represent us or to get you a better price. We do not sell through brokers; if someone claims to act for The Mining Shop, call us and check.


• Lookalike websites and social media accounts using our name, photographs or reviews with a slightly different domain or handle.


• Deposit pressure: urgency to send money or cryptocurrency to a personal account or wallet to reserve a machine. Mining-machine purchases are paid in full; hosting energy deposits and repair diagnostic fees apply only under the relevant written terms and an official invoice.


• Used or damaged units misrepresented as new by third parties. Our website sells new equipment only. Used or refurbished equipment may be listed on eBay only where its condition is explicit, and applicable testing is recorded.


• Too-good-to-be-true pricing. Miner prices reflect model, condition, availability and market factors. Treat unexplained prices far below the market as a warning sign.

• Open www.theminingshop.co.uk yourself rather than following an unexpected payment link.
• Call 01429 408034 and ask us to confirm the quote, invoice and payment details.
• Check company number 14666497 on Companies House (opens in a new tab).
• Check the sender's full email domain character by character.
• Review our About page and book an appointment before a high-value purchase if you want in-person verification.

If someone may be impersonating The Mining Shop, email [email protected] with emails, screenshots, domains and wallet addresses. Do not send passwords, seed phrases or private keys.

If money has been sent, contact your bank or payment provider immediately, preserve evidence, and report the incident to Action Fraud (opens in a new tab) or call 0300 123 2040.

Someone emailed new bank details. What should I do?

Do not pay. Open www.theminingshop.co.uk independently and call the number shown here.

Does a broker represent The Mining Shop?

Do not assume so. Verify any claimed relationship with us directly before paying.

How do I verify an invoice?

Check the sender's @theminingshop.co.uk address, order details and payment details by telephone.

Do you take payment over social media?

No. Use only the official website checkout, a verified official invoice or the genuine marketplace checkout.
