My complaint to FBI

My journey all started here.
cryptocompare.com/mining/#/equipment

From this I decided I was going to buy an Antminer S9.
Got sent to the Bitmain.com from there. Delivery date January 2018

So I decided to go shopping and see if I could get one before January 2018.

Did a search on google for Antminer S9. Domain name popped up with Google's [AD] logo next to it. Meaning they paid google for top placement on that keyword. So I thought I could trust the link. I have screen shots of it.

I wish they had a mention of this on Bitmain's front page, would of saved me a hassle.
Instead it is buried in there forum. https://blog.bitmain.com/en/fraudulent-websites-and-scams-alert/

Scam website is fdcmining.com/ as of now it looks like link has been taken down.

Other people scammed too you can see all transactions here

The shopping cart of this wallet used blockchain.info's transaction API
so I'm hoping there is some Know Your Customer KYC information there (blockchain.info).

My two transactions are:
