Don't know how could you be so sure if those pictures are AI-generated. The facial features you pointed out seem just about right like a normal human nothing uneven there, at least, according to me. They could be using a fake team but the proof you have posted about the images being computer-generated isn't solid enough. Unless you can point us to an algorithm that confirms your logic?
There are AI generated images detecting software available on the Internet and they are really good at it. That is the aim of the AI generated images, to create an image that truly resembles a real person in the naked eye.

Sorry to burst your bubble but the team members that you uploaded to your website are all computer-generated AI pictures.

-snip-

And here we find something else, first, the company is registered in virtual office second the director name is Theodore Green and weirdly enough he is not on the "team".
Nice job qwertyup23 and stompix upon exposing the shameless scammer. He thought fooling Bitcointalk scam detectives was a walk in the park  Grin
I am not so good with the AI generated image thingy, but I trust you guys, ICOEthics would be proud. This should be enough for me to tag the profile and support the flag

It was just purchased and idea were getting prepared, the design and all aspects were not. The team sheet is finally updated and will be added on the ANN thread. If people like considering everyone as scammers, then what can anyone do about it?
Design and all others aspects were not prepared, yet you didn't waste your time and instead you decided to start the sale. That shows your true colors and I am sure that you will continue to show the same level of incompetence and negligence as up until now. Which it proved to be corrected as it see you upload AI generated team member photos instead of stock ones.

If you are indeed legit and honest project that wants to clear own reputation, you would make a video with your team members ASAP showing that they are real, but we all know that won't happen.

See the uneven hair on both of the sides on the first picture? See the crooked teeth with uneven proportions? In addition, the second picture contained distorted background images which are all signs of a computer-generated picture. Your project is doomed from the very beginning the moment you posted pictures of fake team members.

I invite your attention to check this WEBSITE so you could find out on how you could spot a computer generated AI photo. Although at the moment, there are no 100% accurate means of determining them, there are certain indicators that can help you spot the signs and some features of a computer-generated photo.

As I have been doing this for a very long time now, I would already have a hunch regarding the pictures if they are computer generated or not. The disproportions on their facial features, weird and abstract backgrounds, crooked teeths, etc. would already tell that such are fake.

In addition, you can check these websites about examples of some computer-generated photos:

One of the images seems fishy to me too
https://i.imgur.com/vEMox1a.jpg

That spiked hair on one side, the fact that one cheek is shaved with a model the other is clean, a single white hair that is at least 3-4 cm long and points directly out from his cheek, plus on his chin there is a mess of colors and lines once you zoom in, the picture has been definitely edited, at least gone through some heavy filters, why? There is only one reason I can think of.

Second, I checked their social media pages 11k followers, and not a single like or share or comment in one week, clearly bought followers.

Also, they claim they are incorporated in the UK, they offer a token sale, they must be a registered company for that but on their page:

It was required for marketing companies, ANN thread. That why the team sheet was missing, if the intention was to fool people, don't you think it would be part of ANN thread from start? It was not there for a reason.

Its updated and therefore now added to the ANN thread

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.56644406

If anyone still believes there is ill-intention involved, its not possible to change the mindset. The allegation would be justified if it was in the ANN thread from start but since it was meant to be changed, the thread was created without it. It was because of marketing need of companies we are working together that ANN thread and social accounts were needed for them to begin, which is why we started it to allow us time to build it to the required level.

Now, you try to remedy this situation by posting ANOTHER set of fake pictures. Lame attempt and try harder next time. You won't fool anyone in this forum mate.

I can not understand why you guys publish your project publicly without complete it. Even the issue was not a little. Details of Team members is a most important thing for a project.

Okay that it was a mistake, but why you put the photos stealing from google? Did you ask their permission? If those people come from a country which does not allow crypto? Did you think about it?

We added things that were ready on the website in ANN thread. If someone goes to the website and start the allegation without asking even for once, its okay maybe it makes him/her happier.
The Joke is on you. If the team wasn't ready, then why even bother putting in the fake profiles on the website at all. You could have waited until it was ready and then published it. But this business of just throwing everything random on the website thinking people are blind and then when busted you got back to "update" the team won't work.

That's not how you gain investors' trust.

The site just launched with developers still working on it, as template, they carried those things. In 1-2 week, it will be updated accordingly.

Update: Thread is closed till Website is fully ready. Once ready will launch it again.
You couldn't even bother to finish the website before you started the sale? That makes you incompetent and greedy, and that's the best case scenario here. More likely scenario is that this is scam so you decided to go with the fake team in order to exit scam more conveniently. Unlucky for you but lucky for other bitcointalk users, you got busted immediately.

By the way, no one will buy the story about "developers" still working on website as we heard that excuse so many times before from similar scams.

edit: According to the roadmap your website is live since November 2020 yet we are somehow to belive that after 4 months your "developers" didn't have time to upload real team member photos?



Whois also confirms that your website is not new at all.

If the developers are still working on it, why do you need to put a fake/stock picture on the website? It is very misleading as it will cause it to appear that you have a genuine team behind the project, but in fact, some are fakes. It is better, I believe, to put no picture at all than to put a fake team profile as it says really something about the whole project being shady, in general.

The sections which were finalized were added to the ANN thread. Team section was not ready and due to that it was not added to the thread till it would be ready. ANN thread is required for marketing reasons, which is why it was created earlier so it can be put up perfectly.

The team section is already updated and would be added to ANN.
