What can be done though. Always seems like not much happens to pump and dump stuff like this. Probably not a law against what they did sad to say. Im not sure exactly though, but didnt ripple just make 333million new coins? Seems they are the biggest scammers atm.

Is this the two scammers?



We got the pictures and details. Why don't investors chase these two faggots? Sad for the people who just invest their money for their scamcoin. Maybe some of them wotked hard for that money just to invest to them. It makes me so mad.😬😬😬😬

The very two right there. I mean I believe one of them is just the partner of the other and was not involved in actually scamming. The fair haired one is the main scammer as far as I know in the black t-shirt.
 
I mean just vanishing with the BTC is bad enough but then to dump all your free tokens you took to utterly destroy the market just for a pittance of a few extra btc shows total malice.

I hear he is still posting away on his other forums 600k better off and no come back what so ever.

Must be someone in canada that will extract a few 100k for the community or even themselves really? i would rather a debt collection agency took all the money than these two scavengers.

Wow now it looks like making the developers' identity public isn't a hurdle for them to start scamming people.  I think there's a level change as far as ICO's are concerned.  These days you just can't trust a new platform without a VC backing them or at least people who have a high standing in the Bitcoin scene.

I've seen some really bad stuff happen to people for far less than $600k.
I hope these guys are watching their backs.
People tend to get pissed off when you steal their money...

I guess the I'd was fake they will not let other have there identities if they well gonna do a scam obviously also they will use a fake location also to avoid getting arrested but I don't think this case could work I don't think the authorities would entertain this kind of case.

they were doxxed not that it was difficult because they announced their own names on the thread at the start. Some one posted their full addresses and even phone numbers here on the thread I quoted in the OP. YOu can view them both of face book.

i have also managed to find Brian North's instagram account containing over 300 photos most of them of him and Chris.
i have downloaded all these photos to a separate drive so that i can upload them in case they delete the account  Wink

here's the link: https://www.instagram.com/bri_north/

here is Brian's ask.fm: https://ask.fm/bri_north

an old facebook page belonging to Chris (Pro4Never): https://www.facebook.com/pro4never/
chris' twitch channel containing videos where he streams and shows his face (downloaded all of them as well to a separate drive in case he tries to hide this): www.twitch.tv/pro4never

they rip the community off for $600k and to my knowledge nobody does anything.

surely someone can see these easy targets would hand over the scammed swag with the slightest pressure..


although on facebook chris was apparently boasting all the new things he had purchased for his boyfriend brian north apparently with the 600k

If these 2 are not ripe to be made example of then no scammer ever will be taken legally to task over deliberately ripping of people here.

Sadly they deleted all their profiles on social media now so you wont be able to see what a nasty couple of scammers you are dealing with.

If real IDs and personal informations have been shared, best case of action is to contact local authorities in their jurisdictions. If they can't be traced to real life identities/locations, there isn't much you can do. Scams and running-with-the-money happens, it's just part of the game.
Like what was happened with ascendancy. The real ID's and personal information gets shared and the scammer feeling worried.

The real identity and location will make the scammer will return the investor's money.
But, I doubt the local authorities will take an action for the crypto case.

I support it. Just gain more identity of a scammer.

And gives a more pressure to the scammer.

This is another nasty scam I noticed. I warned them at the start this needed more protection for investors but I was told I was being crazy.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1545327.3300

These crooks took the 300 BTC - then abandoned their project

Not only that they dumped the huge premine on the holders heads for double whammy and to get more funds??

Strange thing is they let everyone know their true ID and even their addresses.

I mean they are there right on the thread??

What can be done to make bring them to justice.

Surely those effected by this scam will not just let them get away with it?


Its so unfortunate that people like this still exist in this space as they don't even know the implication of their actions having to affect other genuine projects that might be coming out but unfortunately there is nothing that can be done because someone who has the intent of scamming would never even release his genuine address. That's why I always support those who press hard against the promoters of new project and its because of people like this.

I don't know about this project because i haven't checked them before but it is always risky to invest in any new ICO and we have to do our own research on background of dev team behind any project before investing in them so that we can remain in safe side. There is no any organization right now that fight against cyber scam/ponzi so its difficult to punish them.

We all know that investing in small start up Altcoins is a risk.  It can be worth the risk when the coin is pumped at some point, but for every 'success' story, there are plenty of others that are just pure scams.

Unfortunately too many people happily accept the big risk of the coin being a scam, in case it isn't and they can make lots of money out of it.

Ask yourself this, would you invest in this start up offline with fiat money? It is being started on a forum by people you don't know, who are collecting large sums of money to do essentially nothing original whilst working outside of normal business guidelines.  It is crazy to give them money, but people do anyway.

I wish there were about 10 altcoins, all well run serious enterprises, but instead we have hundreds of shit coins that and almost all scammy and going nowhere.

Appreciate the effort,  cryptohunter.  That big red stop sign is quite useful.

What I don't understand--never did--is why people keep throwing their money away on these new crypto issues.   We've seen so many turn out exactly like this turd did.  And even if they didn't scam and actually brought the coin to market, the only thing investors would have is another unnecessary shitcoin on the market.   I don't get why people still support this crap.

Thank you.

A valid point of course. I think there are some avid gamers that will buy anything game related.

But none the less these couple should be made example of.

What I don't understand to a greater degree is how people allow themselves to be scammed then just forget about it.

Hopefully someone will see the $600,000 target here and induce some kind of compensation.

These are easy targets. I mean I looked on their face book pages and seriously i'm shocked these guys would dare pull such a brazen scam.

get escrow next time you are doing any kind of distribution, from ipo to ico to airdrop, and avoid project with huge premine, they are the worst coin, and always die quickly, yes there are expection like decred, but only because the dev behind is a notorious from other project or come from the core team, with escrow you would save your ass with those 300 btc scammed

I advised them of the very same thing to have escrow with milestone release. As you can see early before release.
I was told i should do my homework more and that these people would never scam due to their previous reputation.

That went well Smiley


However, it would be nice to let scammers know that you can not be this brazen and walk away laughing at the investors.

They are prime to make example of.

Their names and addresses are right there they are prime targets for a group action in terms of debt collection or some other method (legal of course)

With their dumping I expect they are laughing to the tune of $600,000 USD

Surely that is target enough for some action for such easy targets.

No free ride here, learn from the amateurs

Wise words but...

Lessons should be learned both ways.

Scammers are getting sloppy. I mean revealing your actual name and address and still scamming has got to be a step too far.

If they had just taken the BTC - that would have been bad enough

To then get extra greedy and dump their millions of free jwl on the holders to crush the market entirely and extract max BTC....

That deserves some legal action when the names and addresses of the culprits are there for all to see on the thread.
