They made yet another ANN thread for their XTRM scam: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/xtrm-enter-the-future-of-finance-crypto-fintech-company-xtrmworld-5247374
Again, with plagiarized content from the blockchain.com website.
 
Another good find, nice work! That one has been made back in May 10th, but somehow went unnoticed until now.

I think it's obvious that XTRM is nothing more than a copy/paste project, with no original thought and nothing really to offer, other than chance for people to loose the money if they deal with them. Therefore I tagged that user and I am raising the flag, please support. First post updated with flag as well.

Nobody should use or trust your fake ass wallet and website!
You stole every possible thing you could, starting from plagiarizing text content, to stolen design from original blockchain.com website.
Blockchain.com will be informed about this issue.

I see no one is talking about the elephant in the room yet!
I honestly haven't noticed that, great catch! One more proof that they don't have a single original idea with this project. They can't write website content, whitepaper, or even design the exchange. Everything was taken from someone else, the more you dig, more plagiarism you find!

Can't wait to hear explanation for this. I bet it was will be web designer fault, who they just hired to make them website.


Plagiarism or 'adopted and adapted'? Judge for yourself ...  Grin
You gotta love those euphemisms for plagiarizing. I am sure that it is obvious to everyone what is going on here.


I will state again, all article used in our website and whitepaper are being contacted, once we get a consent from the original authors, we will fully referenced the article, those we can't get consent from,we will reach out to their journals and publisher for further discussion.
XTRM is a legal entity, we do appreciate Bitcointalk community for their concerns, we have noted all accusation. We are open to any decisions the author and designer of this articles take. We are also going to ascribe full credit to the original author and designers of these articles. We are aware of copyright laws hence we are guiding ourselves within the limit.


We are hoping that everything is cleared now and we are ready in everything that the author and the designer will take, we are currently improving, revising and changing our website contents and whitepaper, few more days, you will see the changes, and we will credit some content to the author of course. We, the XTRM TEAM want for the approval of BTT Community, and we are happy if everyone let us to launch our bounty and ann. We all know how big BTT can help company like us.

OP did you know for this https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;flag=1901
User rahulrai2699 create a flag against you, just after this topic. He posted here also two posts and shill for XTRM.
Somehow I missed that, thanks for letting me know, and for opposing that flag.


Also in the flag, he is pointed to https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bitcoin-ocd-1689  Cheesy
Hah yeah, he just used some random topic as reference, as he obviously couldn't use the one where i reported XTRM for plagiarism.


He is registered 24 May 2020, 17:47:19 and a few minutes later posts here. It's obviously alt account of NashAmajh or who is already the initiator of XTRM scam.
Yeah it is most likely alt of rahulrai2699. I remember him defending XTRM, not even realizing what they did, and why plagiarism is bad. Gonna tag him too I guess, if for nothing else, then for defending an obvious plagiarsim.

Quoting his posts for reference:

Well I don't find your remarks worthy,because the project itself seems very true and trustworthy to the people. I have searched all about XTRM and found that it almost listed on every crypto information sites like CMC,Coingecko etc. I think you have flagged because you don't know anything about this. First gather some information fool. You are here only to degrade so many coins and tokens.   Angry Angry

You mean to say that every project which gives its users/investors bounty is mainly a scam,well I don't think that you are soo matured in this crypto space. I think you should flag about Binance too as they are also giving WazirX tokens as bounty to there investors. I hope you have got my point and will delete you lr foolish statement which you have made to degrade such an amazing project. Check playstore more than 5000+ downloads in just 1.5months.
The project seems very helpful to the people and they are very happy to invest in it. I will do so.

I guess he simply can't decide what to do.
First of all, thank you man for your hard works that have been keeping us safe from those scams, creating a lot of awareness among us. Keep up the great work. May God bless you.

Now move on to this Bounty manager who has history of cheating, abusing campaigns, launching so many scam bounties without proper research over the years. Not going to accuse someone without any proof so I will keep it undisclosed for now until I find enough proofs.

i have deleted ann and bounty thread ..... and gived Alert to....  
And now it's live again!  Huh
They probably paid him a little bit extra so he continues with bounty campaign. Extra money will make him feel less bad for promoting  an obvious scam. Interestingly, soon after your warning message in their thread, he locked the topic once again. I guess he simply can't decide what to do.

It is hard not to notice bounty hunters that immediately joined the campaign after unlocking, they aren't any better. They chose to ignore warnings, tags and flags and BM previous bounty abuse history. And then after some time when they don't get the tokens, they will come to scam accusation board, crying how they got scammed for tokens, after "months of hard work" aka Twitter/FB campaign.

What made you unlocking the thread, restarting the bounty campaign and letting hunters promoting it after 5 days of you confirming that you were stopping to promote it? If the team did not find those proofs worthy of getting their attention then they have probably offered you more to carry on promoting their scam rather coming here justifying their reasoning.

You have taken a good decision lastly. But if you would more aware before taking this bounty management job then atleast you did not harm your account. Nowadays, most of the fake/fishy projects are doing a common mistake is plagiarised whitepaper because they don't want to invest any money instead of stealing money. So my suggestion will first research before finalizing the deal. You can also ask some scam buster of this forum about the project. Maybe you will be helped by them.

You are a massive example for those who do not do any due diligence before taking over a job. You have been on this forum for more than 3 or 4 years with so many accounts mate, 9 out of 10 bounty projects by you have had seen scamming or ended up not paying hunters. All of your previous accounts were tagged for the same reason and you still do not correct your mistake.

Good thing you noticed this post. I do hope you can review first projects that you are going to accept in the future so it wouldnt get you into a tight spot like this, as a manager its your responsibility to manage and look for a good campaign, but reading some post aboved you had history of scam projects, getting you a neg trust from a previous campaign for not paying your participants. If you like to sort it out, appeal on reputation section but I doubt these feedbacks will be gone anytime sooner. Be a responsible manager if you want to continue your activity here on forum.

It seems they have already locked the ann thread. And they maybe come here soon to post their excuse. And again the drama will start that they are hired a whitepaper writer and the guy steals it, or something like that they are borrowed it. Smiley
Yeah I saw it, OP locked both announcement thread and bounty thread. He will most likely delete both of them. Or at least he should do that.


xtrmworld maybe this account the main account of this project?
It is not an coincidence that he has the same name as this scam project, and he wrote in their thread. That is probably thier main account and they just hired someone to make them ANN and Bounty. That account will be tagged as well.


Btw good findings OP. I will support the flag and tag him though I am not a DT Smiley
It is always a good idea to leave feedback, even if you are not DT. One day you might be and then all your feedbacks will be more visible.


Well I don't find your remarks worthy,because the project itself seems very true and trustworthy to the people. I have searched all about XTRM and found that it almost listed on every crypto information sites like CMC,Coingecko etc. I think you have flagged because you don't know anything about this. First gather some information fool. You are here only to degrade so many coins and tokens.   Angry Angry
Project seems true and trustworthy, yet they plagiarized big parts from other projects, without mentioning any reference. How can someone that steals from others be trustworthy? And being listed on Coingecko or CMC doesn't mean that project is not a scam. Bunch of scams were listed on all those websites in the past, so it doesn't mean anything.

By the way OP you can include this to warn others they have recently launched a bounty campaign and the manager has a red trust so this might could be another scam campaign. I see a lot of applications already.

Bounty Link: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bounty-xtrms-crypto-wallet-pays-daily-interestlisted-coinmarketcap-5250582


The red trust is from a participant of his previous campaign that is not paid. Seems his up again for another scam project.
Thanks for letting me know that they have bounty campaign as well!

Yeah it seems that this guy doesn't do his due diligence, and he is ready to make an ANN for just about anyone that is willing to pay. I tagged him and created the flag, it's added in the first post.  One would think that bounty hunters actually check the trust score of bounty manager and the project itself before entering the campaign, but based on the amount of applications already submitted, we can see that's not the case. Let's hope they stop now since  XTRM project has been busted for plagiarism.
 

@NashAmajh is not a good manager and often some of them cheated the bounty before and now they launch the bounty with white paper plagiarism of course they don't filter the project better even they launch at the risk they face now and finally get caught promoting the project plagiarism.

Now I can not believe the bounty project managed by Indians like kakatua before it.

Following the same reasoning you have you mean that if the crypto's details/information is listed in CMC or Coingecko it is confirmed to be a legit project? If that is what you believe in I would like to refresh your mind that a long time ago BitConnect, one of the biggest scam coins in the industry, was also listed in a lot of websites and crypto exchange including CMC and Coingecko yet at the end it has scammed thousands of investors and fooling a lot of people in the industry. It's easy for any scam project to post and upload all their information in these websites since there is no in-depth screening going on that's why I really don't determine a ICO's trustworthiness just by looking if their information is available in several websites because scammers use this to fool people like you. They already plagiarized several content from multiple sources in the web yet you see this as something negative.

No worries mate just saw this yesterday, then when I look on this section I saw your post and I know there is something fishy around their project. Just want to help.

Take note:
The OP of the bounty, also include in promotions that they are listed on coinmarketcap yes they are but not officially and no data about market about their coin.

Code:
https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/xtrm-coin/

Also its interesting to see a promotional like this:



This is tempting for its worth. But minding those who are planning to do so, instead of doubling your crypto funds it might shrink to zero. Very poor attempt and an old classic scheme to scam people.
