[ANN] [Eclipsim][ECX]| X11 | PoW | MN |[Low Pre-Mine][Imminent Privacy For ALL]

is basically the same as [ANN] [SHADOWLITE] [SDL] [PoW|MN][X11] [COMMUNITY DRIVEN] [AIRDROP]

1. Both "projects" have brand new GitHubs
2. Both "projects" have self-moderated threads, removing any posts pointing out to malware wallets
3. Both "projects" giving away coins for translations: http://archive.fo/atNoz, http://archive.fo/NFIWW
4. Both "projects" have received a false positive report from VirusTotal (Trapmine)

I spotted DarkPay coin somewhere in mid April, I thought it was the very first fake announcement thread. The one I will list down below is a copy from an early March thread (both made by the same idiots, fake as they have almost identical viruses detected by VirusTotal).

It seems to me that these scammers are trying as much as possible to hide the malware from detection, but the files are still similar to the previous scam attempts  

Since his files are deleted from Mega, he is back on Github again - check the fake profile.
Look how he is trying to trick everyone - the link is to a fake account, but the text that will be visible is to the real account.

OP table is looking very nice and clean, thanks for doing/updating it, though you've missed at least 60 fake announcement threads.
I will send you a pm with all the links later today.

Rizzrack, a member of Cryptios, shared an interesting screenshot earlier this week:

Good Job @morvillz7z and @ICOEthics on taking your time keep tabs on the scammer. I have updated the table. I case i missed out anything feel free to let me know.
Looks like the chap is giving up on GitHub since most of the fake profiles have been taken down, so he has resorted to Mega links but fortunately for use... Mega is also so swift on taking down suspicious links so either way he is fucked

I have also reported the GitHub profiles that are still online, they should be deleted in a few days.

The volume of these fake ann decreased significantly^[1] compared to last week's outbreak. [1] haha, time for tagging
Impersonating not only Lightningcash ANN but their developer account as well: LighningCashDev vs. LTNC Dev. There's one more LIGHTNINGCASH-GOLD ann created yesterday. The account posted and the account first to reply both have 5-year posting gaps, which seem oddly suspicious. I'm going to monitor their thread closely, they might add malicious wallets at a later date.

Another similar thread is for TeaCoin [ TEA ], with what appears to be a fake dev account. Credits go to ICOEthics.

I think this is their best creation by far, replacing "i" with an "l". I thought they gave up 4 days without fake announcement threads.
