Dev, do you have any other pictures of that van that you could post? I have a feeling that is about the only thing that will satisfy this guy....
We have a several similar vans.
I can't say for sure why photoshop could have been used on this one - maybe logo did not look too appealing or some mud was around it, or it was some defect on the van itself.
Any way if it is important for you I'll ask our staff to make some new photos and post them as they are, without photoshop.
After the dev admitted that the vans were photoshopped, I asked him if he could post pictures of the real vans and as you see from the quote above, he said he would. But he never did.
So I PM'd the dev and asked why he didn't post any pictures of the vans as promised and here is what he told me:
We have 12 own vans in Ukraine. But at this time we can't make any photos.
I am not sure if you know but on October 25 there will be regional elections in Ukraine.
Business in Ukraine can not stay away of politics.
And Amber Trade takes an active part in this process.
That's why all our vans now is re-branded to one of the candidates.
In other words, first he admitted that the vans were photo-shopped, then he said he would take a picture of the vans and then when I pressed him further, he said "well I can't take a picture because all of our vans have been repainted with political ads."
1. Why on earth would a real company need to photoshop a van?
2. What are the realistic chances that exactly at the moment that I ask for proof that the vans really exist, they JUST SO HAPPEN to have been repainted and therefore no pictures could be provided??? I mean yes it's possible, but highly HIGHLY unlikely.
When I then combined these 2 facts with the fact that the q3 dividends were delayed, THAT'S when I dumped my coins.
I was really surprised that no one else followed up about the vans frankly
Another thing that really REALLY concerned me was that in October 2015 Gemcoin devs were busted when they raised 32 million dollars by falsely claiming that they owned a bunch of.....you guessed it, AMBER MINES. They also told investors that Gemcoins would become shares and would pay dividends based on the profits from the Amber mines.

In other words Gemcoin pulled the EXACT SAME SCAM as Ambercoin and the dev was busted in October of this year!! Again I was very surprised that this news story was never mentioned in this thread!
I have kept my mouth shut until now about the vans and the PM and Gemcoins because honestly I still had hope that I would get my dividends. But at this point I am so certain that this is a scam that I really don't care anymore.
I'm really sorry that so many of you lost a lot of money in this. And I'm sorry for me too.
