It sounds like a scam. They have absolutely no reason to undersell their own coins. They could just sell them on an exchange.

Looks like their account got hacked? Personally I'd like to know. 
I was a dumbass that put a bunch of BTC into Worldcoin when the value was, oh, about 420% higher than it is now.
I'm trying to get out.

Yes, I'd think it was hacked.
If somebody got paid or can prove me wrong, please do!!
I want to be wrong on this one.

Just wait another week or so if you want the coins at 30% off. 
Sounds like a fantastic way to arbitrage the value of your altcoin by -you guessed it- -30% and -35% market price.
Seriously?
Seriously?
I was very surprised with this post by WorldCoinFoundation
http://www.facebook.com/worldcoinfoundation/posts/208391212703921
I sent a message asking them to sell me $500 worth and I got this response:
Note the following:
1) Address is already in use (https://blockchain.info/address/17ZJDrtoMyHjyoddQCXNKEnZpuSCeCyVcr), so they won't know I'm the one who paid.
2) They didn't specify exact BTC or WDC amount
3) I asked to use escrow (coin-swap.net) and I'd pay all fees but they rejected it. They'll sell only if I send first to an address already in use.
I posted my thoughts in their post (http://www.facebook.com/worldcoinfoundation/posts/208391212703921) and instead of explaining, they just deleted my comment and blocked all further comments!
