But I'm surprised they've chosen to use Samsungs name, they might risk having their website shut or they domain seized, don't know if it was that smart of a move.

Using of well known brand may help them to attract more attention from "airdrop people", who only want fast money and don't pay attention to any red flags.

Fake Enjin giveaway to holders (I bet it is fake) is helping scammers to collect ether even faster.

By the way, look at their team - they have got two CEOs - does it make sense?

Already reported it to Namecheap. Hope it's taken down soon.

That template is indeed used by a lot of shady projects
The same phrase appears in the FAQ, which makes no sense:

WHAT EXACTLY IS YOUR TOKEN?
Token is a community of people who want to mine cryptocurrency profitably by combining resources to achieve savings on equipment and ultra-low-cost electricity.

Same as here:
bstcoin(.)online
easygueston(.)com/crowdsale/
golos(.).io
egoldmining(.)com

and probably a lot more. No need to tell that probably all are scams.

As for this:

We are the only global mining operation.

just lol.

I can't even open this scam website...it keeps loading, and maybe it is down allready, so I checked it on webarchive.
Looks like they are advertising on social media to attract more people for this scam.

Red flag #1

It is fairly typical for scammers to use well-known names, brands, etc...

REAL Samsung Pay https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.samsung.android.spay

Red flag #2

They are using https://wpdemo.oceanthemes.net/coeus-azure-blockchain/ for a website.

It's a fast and very easy way to create your own website, but

The only thing they changed from the template is the name of the token. They replaced "Coeus token" with "SPN token".

The rest content is the same as the template.

Moreover, they are using content from the template in their telegram group description! https://t.me/spn_ann

Red flag #3

They are not even able to come up with a short sentence and just copypasted definition of cryptocurrency:
https://t.me/spn_ann/14

Copied from here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptocurrency

Red flag #4

Cartoon edited pictures for the team members, no links to social media

Actually people are sending ETH to them in order to win "ENJ giveaway".
