Thanks for the information. Atleast we all know what projects or ICO is scam to prevent more loss of money. Hope we can see some other scam projects also.

Wow, nice list of scams. And with proof too! I have another addition to your list. I already have submitted it in Scam Accusations board, but you might want to add it here.
It is called hydroBETA. They claimed they will give 222.222 coins, with extra drops for Eth and Hydro holders. And of course 22.222 for referring others. Later on subscribed users received email for AD KYC, but for KYC they only wanted to know name, email and eth wallet. After adding your MEW address (I used fake one) link appears to link your MEW address to their system. That link leads users to MEW lookalike site, which is not original MEW site (similar to eosGAS). Pls DM if you are interested in pics of proof
Why not expose it here. Is this the same email you received from hydro?It is called hydroBETA. They claimed they will give 222.222 coins, with extra drops for Eth and Hydro holders.

It also has the numbers of airdrop tokens that will be distributed but the difference is it is named as hydro project.

Thank you for that investigation! I'm a newbie, so it helps.
I read white papers and try to connect the team of ICO I'm interested in, but how did you identify that the photos are fake?

Thank you very much for the effort you put into this. I am shocked how professional some of those websites look. You really have to deep dive into the project to realize that they are trying to scam.

Please add Bonumchain https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2433961.40
They are asking bounties for KYC to harvest personal info. Their team has not undergone KYC and when asked they avoid the question. They are a banking project so only a scam would open a banking project with no way to tell who they are. They can use exit scam whenever they wish.
Bonumchain are not even using a KYC service they check it themselves which means they have access to your personal info.
Nail them.

Sorry im from phone and cannot look at the pictures easily to provide solid proof, but the team is totally made up, there is no trace on any of them on the internet. Plus the website has the same template as the one of this other scam: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ripple-lite-network-scam-4677881
Here is the cryptoriya ann thread:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/anncryptoriya-crypto-to-cash-anywhere-without-any-bank-exchange-live-3808463
Website: https://www.cryptoriya.io the other scam website
Is https://ripplelite.net
Bounty https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/scam-alert-3828804
If anybody can confirm just in case im wrong, but unfortunately i don't think so.

Great work on all the research and get all the information out for everyone to see. Hope there are more threads like this to help iron out all the bad projects.

I was actually thinking of joining the Onasander bounty program and then I saw this thread and oh that project is listed as another scam because they got the taste of posting fake pictures of their team members. In most cases, a project that is using a fake profile will turn out to be another scam or the team will eventually left the project. I am then glad I got this thread and will following this one for new development. It is about time we fight back these scammers and have a play with their games of using fake profiles. This is one way we can be helping people to stay away from being victimized by scams.

If you'd like to add an additional tool to your arsenal check out our Expert Check.
It's nothing fancy - you scan ICO websites (if they don't have the "Checking your browser before accessing domain.com" enabled) to find experts or advisors from ICO Bench.
If you find any, great, head over to ICO Bench, check their ICO profile, are they really advising this ICO? If not, then it's a red flag.
I was also thinking to include even more people in my database for the Expert Check tool, add additional notes and links to make research easier.
Do you think "Fake team members" should be added to the list? Just to warn people?
