1. Attract investors with good discount price
2. Make enough money from IEO fund raising
3. Use very low fund to list on shit exchange
4 Abandon the project slowly
This is all planned from the beginning....
Now the question is which developer doesn't know that listing on low exchange won't do any good? are devs that stupid? no they are not,infact they are the ones that understand more about crypto that any other.
The dev is not stupid, and they are making the best plan to trick people and get the money. They know how to explain to the investor with the good because they have skills to get the money without making them suspicious. They gave an exciting project to the investor and told them that the project would be a success after the ICO or IEO.
With doing that, they can quickly gather many investors to come to their project, and they can also get big money to funds their project. But then some of them are running away without thinking about the investor, the participants, and the project itself because what they want is all about the money. They choose to list on the low exchange because they can run away in anytime without explaining to the investor.
So you need to be careful to choose the right project, and although you have any information about the project, it doesn't mean they will run the project for a long time. They can scam you in anytime, so you need to invest with the money you can afford because you will regret it if you don't know that.
