first, you do not need to send additional PM related to this.
I'm interested in how you were contacted about this job? here through the forum, or from other channels, telegram etc... (it will be fine if you have any evidence about that conversation)
Judging by your post history, which is a bunch of bounty reports, I guess what you claim is true. You're just an ordinary bounty hunter.

There is also no need to send additional PM messages to nutildah, I guess it's enough just to mention them.

now I am interested in who is behind this Kommunitas.net.
they obviously know how things work here and hire newbies and less experienced members to write here for them. Interesting tactics.

Hello sir,
I email a lot of projects hoping to get a job. Rejection after rejection, finally someone offer me a job.
Here's the initial email I sent to Kommunitas. Simply like that.
After that I made a deal after being offered a salary which I can't disclosed here.

At first they hired me to do marketing, and my job was just looking for influencers/youtubers to promote their projects. I'm not their core team. And I made a thread on this forum to advertise my needs here, which is to find influencers/youtubers. And the response I got was surprising. I have researched about them, and it turns out that my research is not deep enough about them. And as a result I earned negative trust from you and others.

I have closed the thread as COOLCRYPTOVATOR suggestion. I've also tried sending a message to @nutildah to remove negative trust, but he's not receiving any messages from newbie like me. I have now withdrawn from them, and I'm no longer working with them after reading this thread. I'm sorry for what happened. And I sincerely ask you to remove the negative trust that you gave. I am a bounty hunter, because of the negative status on my profile. I was refused to join a bounty campaign. I want my profile to be trusted again.

I really appreciate it if you remove the negative trust you put in me.

Bumping this thread after a long time, because it seems the team looking for marketers from the forum. Noticed from the service section they have made a thread where are looking for YouTubers and some other social media promoters to promote their projects. But it seems they just ignoring this tread or were not aware of this accusation. I have seen someone already mentioned to them about these allegations, I think they will come here, but I don't think it will beneficial for them. It looks pretty clear that the image had tempered, either AI-generated or edited.

This thread is created and all evidence is directed towards member @lucifur, where he is engaged only in ANN and bounty page design.
The thread should definitely update and add a user @jagadbumi, who is obviously part of the team. Of course, there is no doubt about scam intention from KOMMUNITAS.NET

The discovery and accusation was made in May, about 5 months ago, and I believe they received or saw information about the accusation but probably decided to ignore it, so I doubt if they will come around. That's what scammers do.

Good catch OP, this is definitely a scam, I mean who would put such a ridiculous name for a token? kOmMUnIsTaS? What the hell, that's a rather absurd name for a token to represent or be inspired from a ineffective ideology.

It is fair enough for them to avoid this thread because they have no benefit by following this thread. They have knowingly did this to make loss of the people and wanted to make their own profit. But previous topic (before this topic) was not created the same per who has posted by asking promoters.

They had been asking me before. I understood that something is wrong, but I didn't have time to make closer research. I just tried to set a trap for them. I asked @examples to be my protection during the convesration (I was trying to gave them offer of launching scam campaign - I have screenshots and in conversation with examples also is everything clear) because I wanted them to admit that they were a scam. Unfortunately, I did not manage to finish the plan because I did not have time to talk to them later due to personal matters. The only information I gave them is that @lucifur can make graphic design of thread for them. After two or three days, they just wrote to me that they have a different team to run the Bounty Campaign. I waited for the thread to appear and today I found this thread. Looks like @lucifur fell into their hands a bit because of me. He is inexperienced and unfortunately let them convince him. Sorry @lucifur

I confirm that I talked to @TheAndy500 about this case on Telegram (20.May first time). He got an offer to run their bounty campaign but was sceptical from the start that they are fraudsters. he contacted me that I would be some kind of confirmation to him if a case like this happened. (if someone insists, still have chat log)
He ^@TheAndy500 recommend them ^KOMMUNITAS @lucifur as a designer with whom he cooperates and satisfied with his work. I don't see any bad intentions here.

I am going to oppose Flag against @lucifur. I believe he did not explore the background of the project, is it a scam or not. Are they use AI-generated photos or not (I'm also not sure I would recognize that). He is just a designer, not a scam hunter. Of course, he learned a lesson now.

Good catch TheAndy, you recognized scammers without check images or WP.

So anyway, I applied as a merit source :)

I hope luficer learnt their lesson. You may to new to this community and it would be a good thing to understand how scams operate in this sector. Appreciate the fact that they are into designing which is an important part in marketing and making an impression and hence they should be more careful in this regard.

Both bounty managers and designers are paid by the project. I would like to know if lucifer was paid for the same and if so in tokens or in bitcoin if they wish to tell us. Because this might help in gathering more evidence towards the actual scammers running this scam.

For now I am not supporting this flag.

I agree with Slow Death ^^, Lucifur does not necessarily have to do an in-depth investigation of his clients because it will hinder his main job as a designer. So far he admits that he is not a bounty manager,

Quote from: lucifur on May 22, 2021, 06:07:13 AM

I was only hired to create their graphics and post their thread.

he shouldn't accept the consequences of being tagged because I think it will distract him from building his portfolio in this forum.
@lucifur, I will not prevent you from investigating the scamer behind this project further. All you have to do is refund the cost of posting those threads (not for the design work), and I think your problem should be resolved. Let they create their own ann thread if they oppose this accusation.

Creating a design and then publishing on his behalf only says that he does not care what he was going to publish. He was paid, and what will happen next is not his problem.
Show me the designers who create and publish the announcements?
In such cases, it is required to warn initially that he is not a member of the team. Otherwise, this is assistance to the scam project.
But I understand that money rules the world, and it's easy to buy such people. The tag changed to neutral.

Good catch. I haven't seen anyone attempt to do this in a while, make use of the AI generated faces. You do have to know a bit about what to look for in order to spot that one, but there are a few dangly hairs that are blurry for no reason and the off-color splotches are malformed jewelry. Pretty lame but definitely the sign of a scam.

Hi, I just like to clarify that I was only hired to create their graphics and post their thread. I am not affiliated with their team. Can you please revert the negative trust you gave me. I have taken down the thread for the mean time to be safe and to clarify if they really are using a fake team.

Are you still in doubt?

Did you decide to run a bounty campaign without checking anything about the organizers of this scam?
The most important thing for you is that you were hired and paid. What happens next is not your problem? We are familiar with such managers.
No, I will not remove the tag, since when you are hired as a manager, you are obliged to check absolutely everything.
Ask what managers should be like and why people respect them.

What line says that you are not associated with this project? After being discovered, did you decide to cover your ass?

I think you could give it another chance by removing negative feedback and leaving neutral feedback and in the future if it was no longer involved in anything dark you could remove neutral feedback because it seems to me that he is just a manager, I say this because of the his post historic. I also noticed that he has an ANN thread on creating signatures and banners

UPDATE ! DESIGNS- signatures, banners, logo, visual content [ price starts@ $5 ]

it seems to me that he is a victim

I was not in doubt. I took the bounty immediately down after knowing the accusation. I am new to this community and I accept my mistake. I just think that the rating is unfair since It was not my intention to harm anybody.
