for the members who got their ATS bounty, including the investors.

Dont look down on the ones that didnt receive,

because of this scamming. Dont expect the ATS will go for 0.15 cent

let alone be listed on exchange site

now we can make legal complaint against Authorship.com

They did nothing illegal. They didn't steal from you, no one made you promote their bounty. Theres no legal complaint to be made, you cant sue someone for not giving you something for free.

They are based in the US. In the US it is completely illegal for a company to promise something for a sweepstakes/bounty campaign and then simply refuse to pay it. It's also illegal to guarantee the price of something like ATS will "definitely be 15 cents" but nobody is complaining about that.

Get off your fucking high horse because you have no goddamn clue about the law. What Authorship.com has done here is COMPLETELY illegal and complaints/lawsuits will be filed accordingly.

The bottom of their e-mails say 11015 York Road, Cockeysville MD 21030 USA

However, google maps says that is a place called Precision Tune Auto Care....

So here we have a man named Petre from Romania (he confirmed this a few pages back) who lied about his name and is promoting a company that lists an address that really belongs to an auto-repair shop. Then he changes his story multiple times about what is going on/when people will receive their payments, finally sending out an e-mail claiming that anyone who hasn't been paid is a cheater and that he will be taking a week off.

This whole thing screams SCAM louder and louder the deeper you look into it.

The founder (https://www.linkedin.com/in/nolan-warfield-aa064713/) indeed owns a car repair company (https://www.facebook.com/PrecisionTuneAutoCareHuntValley/)

Both he and Peter are involved in a more or less legit marketing platform for authors (http://SeriousReading.com).

I checked this before I got involved, and it only raised minor red flags, could have still been legit.

What they did with the fake-bounty program however... will reflect on their other businesses, as well.

I bet that a bunch of people who this guy scammed will now to go to that facebook page and link this thread to accusing the owner of being a fraudster. He clearly did not think this through and might have ruined another one of his businesses in the process of scamming everyone here.

I can’t wait for them to get back and have destroyed not one but multi company’s Hahahahahaha Cool

Authorship.com has removed their phone number from their website.

Does anybody have it? Can you post it here?

1-844-776-3500. Internet archival sites save the day again, haha

Why 45 days limit to request the rewards, the date has been reduced to today Huh

Because they decided to just distribute our coins to 25 investors.

TBH no one actually cares about the project, it’s a failure of an idea (blockchain based books? Get real when was the last time you actually bought a book?) all they had was the bounty campaign but now nothing

This is the Authorship.com Headquarters.

Are you really still going to deny this was all a scam? The team has your money and that's the end of it.

This is funny. Sad funny, but funny. I didn't bother to check this out before, but I should have.

Both P. Corman and N. Warfield, the co-founders of Authorship, list IREADBOOKS as a bookstore they co-own.

http://www.ireadbooks.org/

If you go to that site, they list three things for sale.

Pencils (10 for $10)

Memo pad 32 pages, lined (3 for $10)

Vinyl sticker ($5 each)

That is the most hilarious excuse for a bookstore I have ever seen!

Cheesy

This. Some people who didn't know a thing about the Authorship's show in the last 24 hours just jumped in and said nonsense.

A disgusting part in their arrogant email:

Quote

Kept track of registration IP/confirmation IP, if they don’t match suspend the account.

So this is one of their ways to determine that we are cheaters? My IP must remained the same from the day I registered to the day I filled the withdrawal form? An electrical loss in my area which restarted my internet router will make me a cheater?

Exactly.
From an investor point of view, their brutal demonstration of technological incompetence is even more disturbing than the fact that they cheated the majority of their useful bounty idiots.

I received my tokens. Other people are making excuses as to why they didnt receive theirs. How do you know I wet the bed? Did your mom tell you?

Not making excuses just didn’t get them

What can I say? I received my ATS. But they don't make me as happy as I initially thought. I am aware that very likely many honest people did not receive their tokens. It is good that the team anounced a week cool-down. After that we will see how the project comes out of this battlefield. Good luck to all of you.

I highly suggest more people do this, the more people the bigger an issue it will cause and the quicker we get this sorted, ATS might be taking a break but WE WONT TAKE A BREAK

Spot on. If this lax attitude goes on to resemble the future product, that will be extremely devaluing to a already competitive market.
