Topic: [WARNING] Hellar - Plagiarized Whitepaper (Read 168 times)
This is very shameful of the project founder and team. Plagiarism should be a no no for serious projects with something tangible to offer not a copy copy work. If such a thing should happen and there is a full repetition word for word, captions for captions on the white paper then there is every possibility that both project have something in common. It is either the both projects are owned by one person or their is a relationship between both projects for them to have used the same content which seems as if the other was caught in the act of plagiarism. Otherwise what would make a project team committing such blunders in a new project without doing any proper work on their project. This is a very terrible mistake they have made
They had the audacity to create a self-moderated thread where some members tried to put up some warning only form them to delete those posts
Here is the archived link of the ANN thread.
This is a clear indication that they wanted to hide their red flags right from the beginning, and they deserved a trust flag, which I am going to open against their profile.

Hey, thanks for creating the flag! I actually forgot to open a flag accusation against them but with all these overwhelming evidence, this is indeed a 100% scam. The funny thing is, they in fact so lazy to replace or to do anything that they blatantly copied everything from a well-known crypto.
Will edit the post and add the flag! Thanks!
Seeing these after some time now, maybe less forum members are active on them nowadays, good to see old @qwertyup123 still hunting them out. The method is old but it works like a charm on the less experienced newbies and because the scammers run a self-modded thread, more chances of them staying in the shadows and the need of this thread to refute them.
Their ANN thread is just an echochamber of the thread creator.
Flag supported from my end.

Hey, this really means a lot! I remembered around 2-3 years ago I was really into busting scams in the forum. I guess my real-life priorities got the best of me but I guess I'm back! Every once in a while, I will definitely scan the ANN section to look into ANNs manually and check their WPs and team members for potential plagiarized posts or fake team members.
This aint the last time you'll be hearing from me! Appreciate it, thanks Ultra!
And still after so many years, this scammers haven't realized their error and still plagiarized whitepaper after whitepaper and think that they can get away with it from this community. There are so many members here that can spot it right away and then report it here. And when we thought that it's the end of this kind of practice, still they are persistence that they will continue to go on. And hopefully there will be no new investors that are going to fall for this trick as they shouldn't trust this kind of project that can't even write their own whitepaper to explain what their project is all about. Going to support the flag as well.

Good catch by the OP. It's yet another project with a lazy team that couldn't even create their own unique whitepaper. What can you expect from them other than an exit scam where they will run off with the participants funds after all. The situation is getting worse with the amount of these scam projects created and announced here in ANN section. The reason is that some people are still investing out of greed for quick profits while these project owners only aim to gather a large sum of money from investors and then disappear.
It's important to do a good research before investing in any new project or even just trading their tokens. Some of the things you should do include reading their whitepaper, visiting their community if they have one(compare if it has real chat or only bots and fake accounts), and checking their smart contracts for any suspicious or malicious code.

Well done, OP; it is great to see such topics that make any investor put question marks about the project and identify the weaknesses and red flags that have been found in order to stay away from these suspicious projects.
There is conclusive evidence that they have a plagiarized whitepaper, so I will support your flag.

I agree with you, buddy. They deleted the post of one of the people who advised members to scan their wallets for viruses after downloading it. On the Hellar website, there is a wallet that anyone can download on Windows or MacOS. They could have answered him instead of deleting his post, and this may indicate their evil intentions and that their wallets are not safe.Here is the archived link of the ANN thread.

Yes, this is an identical copy of the DarkCoin (DASH) whitepaper. They even used the same graphics from the original WP. However, if we take a closer look at the upper-left section of the image, we can spot a discrepancy. "Hellar" in the title is written in a different font, and just below that, "Darkcoins" still appears in the subtitle. This clearly proves a blatant attempt to plagiarize someone else's work and mislead potential investors.

This definitely warrants a negative tag!

Nice Job OP, thanks for the time you spent to check the white paper, the worst scammer is the lazy one, they are interested in creating more and more scam ASAP.
Why you did not create Flag? Create it and I will support it, although I do not expect to return to the forum, but to ensure that he will not scam anyone.
In their official site, I found Hellar crypto Wallet which is only available for Window, Linux and Mac. I believe that this wallet also be consist of malware.
I do not advise you to click on the link because I think it will have mining viruses working in the background, not to mention downloading the application, which will definitely be Trojan.

It is good that they have copied the whitepaper as a scammer. Those who can not hire a content writer can't be trusted. Those are Basic level of scammers who can not hire a content writer and copy content for a website or whitepaper. So, this site is undoubtedly a scam site.
Hmm, Nice Job OP, so lazy team that they cannot write their projects detail by self. This plagiarism show that this project have no idea and no real service/products and only to mislead investors/Service user. I checked out their social pages but didn't found any link. Their domain is created in 2022 and updated in 2023 but there is no roadmap or anything that we check their previous history.
