1) The numerous threads posted here on bitcointalk which you linked above are made by the accounts "dimcoin1", "nikkyBTC", and "futureICOs". These threads were NOT authorized by Bitsmo. These accounts are NOT representatives of Bitsmo.
2) You use the fact that members of our team have photos linked to stock photo websites as conclusive proof that we are a scam. However, here is evidence that our "fake team" is legitimate. I am a part of Bitsmo's marketing department and I am listed on the website. I have met several of the team members personally including Ken Riley, who you claim is not a real person. I'm
linking a photo of part of the team which includes myself (Joe Coburn), Ezra Bergstein, and Ken Riley among others not listed on the Bitsmo homepage. Clearly, we are an actual team of actual people.
Understandably, the team is not able to come together physically in its entirety. Moreover, it would be unreasonable to expect that a project in the blockchain/finance/tech space wouldn't consult and communicate with advisors primarily over the internet. Take Felipe Teixeira for example, who we paid as an adviser and communicated with him online.
3) It is far from conclusive proof to say that Bitsmo is a scam because the advisor's photo is also listed on a stock photo website. As shown above, you were wrong about one of the team members whose photo appears on a stock photo site. I am neither confirming nor denying any of the following reasons, however there are many explanations for the stock photos:
It is not unreasonable to believe that some of our advisors may have sent us stock photos to use on our website for the sake of their own anonymity, or that they simply had professional photography done, which they posted to stock photo sites and also used for their bio on our site. I am awaiting more information regarding this specifically and will provide the details as soon as they are made available to me.
4) I see no conclusive proof that Felipe Teixiera is a scammer. The threads that you linked contain only your accusations and insinuations that he is as you claim. If you are going to make these serious accusations, you must provide definitive proof.
All of our advisers have been legitimately paid for their services and have contributed significantly to the project.
