Topic: [WARNING] Moon Rocket Coin Plagiarized Whitepaper (Read 129 times)
Good catch. You do a very good job brother +1. Catching Plagiarised Whitepaper isn't that easy. It needs a lot of patience and effort. I am pretty much sure that MrCrank will get scammed by this project. We saw a Previous Scam Project Plagiarised another Projects Whitepaper and they scammed the bounty manager. Which was already Caught by you but bad luck for "usekevin". That DxSwap managed him and they scammed him. Actually, Either They don't have that much budget to scam, Or they don't want to expend much money just to scam bounty managers. I assume MrCrank will get scammed. But, who knows? No one knows what is going to happen. But, This thread will be a warning for MrCrank. He should investigate this and pause the campaign immediately. This Moon Rocket coin looks suspicious since they plagiarized a whitepaper. I assume they are the same as DxSwap. Who knows? Might be the same team.
It's good that they got busted early in their bounty campaign so participants can stop reporting or stop their work, the worst thing is bounty hunters staying in a campaign for several months only to find out that the project is a scam after the campaign is finished, I experienced this several times when I was still in bounty campaigns.
Give them a couple of days to check their PMs and acknowledge it. If they are in with the scammers, they will not respond and continue promoting the bounty. The last login was on December 03, 2021 - so I suggest give them at least one more day. It could be possible they have contacted the owners of the project and awaiting response. This usually ends bad though, I have rarely seen any legit project come up with the above problem in the first place.
If there is no response in the meantime, then opening a flag on their account is appropriate.
It is sad to see that people accept such jobs without doing a research on the project.

Not surprised to see another project with a copied web-page and whitepaper getting busted. Someone was promoting the last one and they were legit enough to owe up to their mistake, I hope @MrCrank is also going to do the same.

I hope the manager corrects their mistake and stop doing this bounty. No excuse should be entertained from the team, they misled the bounty participants.
I've sent PM to him since yesterday but until now still no response.~

I don't think he will stop this campaign because I'm sure he will continue to take his job without doing any research, well as you said it's likely in the future he will do the same.
It's not strange for me if the team said this was the developer's fault because basically, the team was not serious about a project being developed.
It could be that the bounty promotion is just taking advantage of it.

Copied whitepapers should immediately raise suspicion of being scam. If the "team" responds that the person hired to develop the whitepaper did some mistake, then the fault lies in the team's mismanagement and they are very much answerable to it. Bounty managers end up in a bad situation not because they want to take the job, but due to lack of transparency that such projects have, after all because they are scams in the first place.

The whitepaper has been completely plagiarized from Bitkidscoin, and the website is almost identical to the interface same.
I'll be PMing MrCrank to clarify about this bullshit project.
