They will not spend thousands of dollars once they are caught and reported to their hosting and domain registrar they are Likely to shut down and they will not recover their set-up cost.
But those smart scammers will check ins and outs of a project when they will set up the project. They will take care of website design, website development, writing a whitepaper, and also they will do marketing in a proper way. Even they may use those type of image which is not available on the internet.

I agree with sujonali. But, want to add more. They buy the domain and extract the pre-made website script. They do not even design it well. You can find similar websites on the internet. Those are ready-made scripts.

They won't spend thousands of dollars to buy such scripts. There was a time when I tried to earn some money on the PTC website by viewing ads, and rarely got paid. After a couple of months, I realized I can build such websites for free. Yeah, Those free scripts are available on many webmaster forums. All you need is to extract the script and connect the database and do the cronjobs. That's a whole different story. Their representative is here. Let's see what they have to say.
I am one of the ones being talked about here right now and would like to clarify a few things.
You didn't really explain anything about plagiarism. Perhaps you could start with that.

Yes, we are the team behind Whalegirl and Golddoge Sachs / Potfolio.
Potfolio IS Golddoge Sachs, it just got rebranded because of a trademark dispute.

Wait a sec, you rebranded because of a trademark dispute, but you still thought it was okay to take other people's intellectual property without permission?

First of all, let me say that no, we are NOT scammers.
We are a team trying to establish new cryptocurrencies. Since we are not a big company, but can only use on equity, we are on the BSC in the so-called "shitcoin space". You know, where Shiba-Inu comes from.

What team? The one that's a figment of your imagination, right? And let's be honest, there's no actual company behind this.

Our portfolio with the $165,000 are visible to everyone in the smartchain and cannot be faked by us. The source is also transparent due to the trading volume.
Prove it! Show us the address or smart contract that holds that amount of assets, or at least the majority of them.

Since this forum is completely irrelevant to the shitcoin space we wouldn't be here otherwise.
If you truly believed that, you wouldn't be here. Or better yet, why don't you just get the hell out of here and save us all the headache.
Thank you for coming here. Allow me to breakdown your statements
So now it's "we" and not "they". I wondered why you used "they" on the ann thread which cast an impression that you're just promoting them instead being one of them. But, as we're here, you might also want to mention Neptune, one of your team's other project, which somehow got deleted from your post history, and which created to compensate the downfall of Whalegirl.
Unlike Whalegirl's channel remnant which filled with countless bot messages which made it difficult to navigate and conduct a research, NPTUN is easier. Apparently it also fell from their grace and the dev team got a brilliant idea to put it on life support by creating yet another project, Triton, but unfortunately and ultimately, has to be closed for this reason,
So should I also add "PnD" and hit-and-run above the plagiarism accusation?
How is the accusation unfounded? The original and copied material was there on my first post, the plagiarism proof is there for you to defend, which you still haven't. Unfortunately, with both GDS and whalegirl site went down, so did the page which contain the link to their whitepaper, hence I can't check if they're also plagiarized.
Two things to add. First, how could a veteran in crypto project still do a plagiarism? You're not new to this space, you knew it's heavily frownes upon. I can't think of any way it happened by accident. Second, wouldn't it be much easier to say on the first place on your ann thread that you're a rebrand of GDS due to copyright issue --which also can't be discussed in details due to the legal reason? Instead, you made a statement like it's a whole new project with huge intial investment... which actually came from the GDS crowdfund.
Dare I say, departing from your previous history, this is another means you tried to do to keep the project afloat, much like Neptune and Triton... or Whalegirl and Neptune
Hello all.

The websites that are no longer there are because of the aforementioned trademark dispute and at Whalegirl because of a failure of the project. We communicated the ending of the project CLEARLY and allowed all holders to exchange their tokens for their value without any fee.
The BSC space communicates exclusively via Telegram, so the information there is much more detailed. The community is aware that we are the same team behind these projects. It is not a secret!
If we wanted to hide that, we probably wouldn't be so stupid and make the announcements here in Bitcointalk with the same account.

Unlike BTC or ETH, it is unfortunately common for many very young projects to fail early.
How it goes in the lower spheres of cryptocurrencies, you do not need to know. But we are very grateful if people first make sure that they have any idea about a topic at all before they start throwing around any unfounded accusations here.
Our portfolio with the $165,000 are visible to everyone in the smartchain and cannot be faked by us. The source is also transparent due to the trading volume.
We think it is a shame that you do not like our website.
The reason for our announcements are possible listings that we would like to get. For them it is useful if we post something here. Since this forum is completely irrelevant to the shitcoin space we wouldn't be here otherwise.
Kind regards

Well, I understand that they do not have enough budget to scam people. They are low-budget scammers and I believe if they get successful scams, they will do it more professionally next time. People shouldn't invest in everything they see on the internet.
These are newbie scammers targetting newbies like them even if they have an original whitepaper I will not involve myself in this project, no platform obviously this is a pump and dump project they are also lying and they have a $150,000 budget and bought top coins in the market, they don't even have $500 with the kind of script they have.Quote
I agree with sujonali. But, want to add more. They buy the domain and extract the pre-made website script. They do not even design it well. You can find similar websites on the internet. Those are ready-made scripts.
They will not spend thousands of dollars once they are caught and reported to their hosting and domain registrar they are Likely to shut down and they will not recover their set-up cost.

In their portfolio there are only the biggest assets (Bitcoin, Ethereum, and so on). Everything can be seen transparently in the network.
They've just launched and are already starting with an insane investment pot of $150,000.
Their representative claim they invested $150k but cannot even hire a designer that can design a professional-looking website, their announcement is poorly created, besides plagiarism, the other one that gave them as soon to be scam project is the absence of the name and pictures of their developers or the people behind this, this kind of project is so old, anyone who falls into this definitely is a newbie in the world of investing.
These people can't and don't want to stop, they are even using an old method to scam people.

This looks like a trend in this recent market. Buy a domain, design a website, make some social media accounts for that project, Create an ann thread here, launch a ICO and go away with investor money. Again to the same things.
I don't understand why some investors invest in such type of project without proper research. Until those investors don't stop to invest in such a project, they will not be stooped to create this type of project.
But we can do one thing is tagging them. I am going to do that , others also should do it

Additional Notes:
Their opening post on the referenced ANN thread above sounds very sweet,
I would like to introduce you to Potfolio.
Potfolio works similar to an ETF, but for cryptocurrencies.
In their portfolio there are only the biggest assets (Bitcoin, Ethereum, and so on). Everything can be seen transparently in the network.
They've just launched and are already starting with an insane investment pot of $150,000.
So you have the opportunity to invest directly diversified with leverage, instead of doing it yourself.
The team is legitimate and has already done nothing questionable or the like in previous projects.
Telegram: https://t.me/Potfolio_Official
Website: https://potfol.io/
but as pointed out by julerz12, there's no detail about team on their website or other media
The user, which I strongly believe also the founder of the said project although they tried to give an impression that they're just promoting the project, has couple of hit and run projects in the past, [ANN] Whalegirl [WGIRL] - P2E Unreal Game, CEX listings & much more in 2021 and 🏦 GolddogeSachs - the first leveraged index for crypto 🏦 in 2022. Both website are no longer accessible, and now the suspect posted another project, which most likely will also gone after a day or two and we'll see them again in yet another project next year.
In regards to the point above, I wonder if it's necessary to raise a flag against the user to discourage them on creating another project in the future.
Some screenshot for easy view:
