DeClouds, E-dinar, Solarflarecoin, Prcoin, ebitz, Lithum, Monkey Capital, Ascendancy, PRO Commerce, AdsCash, Droplex, Beth are just some of the ICO scams list I know. Some of these fake ICOs even have an ANN thread here at BitcoinTalk where they promoted their scam. Now if you would like to know more about them and why they are considered scams, I suggest you read the post from the ICOIndex in this link because they provided there a detailed explanation and critical summary of what these scam ICOs did to make money from their victimized investors.

Hey, thanks for the scam projects names!

I know that it causes money loss. Now, Many of them make airdrop by asking for payment in advance to get their tokens. So, we have to carefully choose ico.

I think it's really hard to create a list of scam ICOs project. For now almost ICO project keep their investment address private so it's really hard to know the amount of money of any ICO project got is real or not. Beside the ICO project often last really really long so sometime you only can know which one is scam project or not until the end of the ICO. As you can see in Scam Accusations section there are a lot of scam ICO project but almost them only detected till the end of ICO.

i think the idea of having such a thread is pretty helpful and informative, but i agree with the people who have posted here, it is a very responsible thing to accuse anyone without proof. i just want to inform u, that the ETHBOOKS are behaving suspiciously lately.. haven't heard anything from them for a while.. but again, it is just my opinion, which i am not sure is right.

There's a lot of Scam ICO so beware of those thing. stay away and read rules regarding their development,whitepaper and roadmap if they have many followers then go.

Of course, I also stick to this idea that this topic is needed. And I was expecting here to see more specifics and really useful information. So far, such information is very small.

There are a lot of scam ICO so if anyone wanna list them out I think this list will be very long

). But as I see people don't really care about the list of scam ICOs, they just care about good and truthworthy ICO so it's much easier if you want to find list of good ICOs:))

ico A lot of the market is a liar project, the coin on the exchange directly below the issue price, after a long time to rise back, many investors are losing money. Such a lot of coins, such as ppp, ast.

It is quite predictable that for a not so promising ICO the investors will dump their tokens at the start in buy back later if the project reveals itself to be doing great.

Also keep in mind that in most ICOs early or bigger investors get Bonus Tokens, e.g. if you get +200% Tokens, why not dump some?

I think it is a good idea but we must be careful and indicate enough evidence so as not to harm an innocent project because of minor disagreement between the whistle blower and the owners of the projects.

There's a large list somewhere in this forum that contains all the scam coins and their information on the scams that they are doing.

Since you asked, you should collect all the ICOs reported by the people and list them on the first page.

Good idea, however as someone mentioned it, we need a way to prevent competitors and "crazy" "witch-hunting" people away from posting irrelevant claims. Any ideas how to do that?

So far I have collected the following projects from this topic:

EthBooks ICO = team disappeared
Lydian Project = bounty campaigns not paid
OrenPlatform = team disappeared, bounty campaigns not paid
Verify = bounty campaigns not paid
HomeToken = bounty campaigns not paid
DeClouds
E-dinar
Solarflarecoin
Prcoin
ebitz
Lithum,
Monkey Capital
Ascendancy
PRO Commerce
AdsCash
Droplex
Beth
Confido = team disappeared

This is a good thread. We all need to know those ones, who are dishonest in their play (I cannot call it even a business — just fraud). You can also check scammers that were caught here:

Yeah I agree - if anyone states that a project is a scam they need to back it up with evidence, otherwise competitors could simply slander each others projects

I personally witnessed an ICO (which I knew well, the team, the model, etc) being attacked by some guy in social media without showing any proof. He retracted his accusation later, but "burn the witch" can mentality can escalate quickly.

Hey, thanks for the scam projects names!

The link you posted is a list of what ICOindex thinks are scams. Is there more information regarding when do they consider a project a scam and (as you write) what they do with the money? Do you maybe know if ICOindex has a valuation checklist which they follow when evaluating projects?
