Fake Team - ORBITAL SPACE TECHNOLOGY




Without the source of the fake team's stock photos, anyone can point their mouse pointer at a picture of "Raphaelle Follet" or "Salma Khan" on the site, and he will see the titles of the pictures 






Additional Notes:

The bounty manager should stop promoting it, and the bounty hunters should stop working, as there are 29 pages on the BOUNTY TOPIC so far.


Polite advice for owners of scam projects: You can change the titles of the stock team's photos before you upload them to your site to make it difficult for us to research and detect the scam of your project. Thank you

I have just found the source of Raphaelle Follet


And also Salma Khan is listed on CanStockPhoto


And I think shahid Farid has been taken from without permission or he has been hired just for graphic design. He might not be a part of the team as I could not see anything on Facebook about the project.

Facebook.


Ash Hussain is also taken from Shutterstock.


All the images have almost no editing (directly taken and noob editing).

It's really stupid how the developer is careless by leaving the image's source where he find it or maybe he's hiring a newbie coder who create this website. Anyway the account already get negative feedback, but there are a lot bounty hunters are joining the campaign he managed. So, I don't expect when you bringing this issue on their thread, it will stop new participants to apply the bounties because all of them looks like bots.

This bounty manager should stop this campaign or take the risk of being tagged I have seen him already manage a lot of campaigns in the past and still managing a lot more, I guess he established himself as a leading bounty manager but unfortunately, he claimed himself as an expert in this field and yet some of the projects he promotes like this are fake obviously he did not do enough research or do not how to research on what is a good project to promote.\

He is also selling the online business for $50k that according to him net him over $70k in profit annually

Business sale. Net profit $ 70,000 +

Hi everyone.
Selling my online business. Net profit $ 70,000 + (for 1 year). Price: $50,000. During the transaction, we can use the Bitcointalk guarantor (payment is possible in parts).
Background:
You may know me as the founder of @bountyformula and @bountyformula_ch (telegram). Here you can check the number of launched bounty campaigns. I run bounty campaigns, listing on crowdfunding platforms and listing on CEX exchanges. My experience is over 5 years. My earnings are over $70,000 a year (I can confirm). Now I have other things to do in real life and I want to free up my time and am ready to sell my business.

I think as long as he gets paid he doesn't care if the project is serious or not. I've already looked at some of his bounty campaigns and I'm really surprised why people keep participating in them. It also seems to me that many of his campaigns don't end well. It's actually a miracle that so few people have complained about these campaigns. 

He is also selling the online business for $50k that according to him net him over $70k in profit annually -snip-

Will he find a buyer for it? I'm curious.

In addition to the fake team, their white paper also contains instances of plagiarism where multiple sources were used without proper citation. Unfortunately, I am currently unable to compile a full report, but I will point out to a few sections that caught my eye upon initial review.

Plagiarized Whitepaper: https://orbitalspacetoken.space/Whitepaper.pdf [archived]

6. Migration of the human population into space: One of the main drivers of space development is provide new locations for people to live, work, and explore. While currently only very few people have been able visit space, the space community today is on a clear path to grow a commercial space tourism industry and establish small but permanent human bases on the Moon and Mars.

6. Inspiration for STEAM education: Beyond economics, a healthy space sector will continue to inspire people young and old about new frontiers, discoveries, and technologies, and foster interest in STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, and math) disciplines, which helps create a scientifically literate society able to participate in an increasingly technology-driven world.

Extra-terrestrial colonies and reducing climate change

The amount of scientific evidence supporting climate change is overwhelming, and in as short as 50 years, there is a chance that cities and entire nations may be destroyed by droughts, heat waves, and floods, which would cause a groundwater and crop catastrophe.

indian space research organisation | history, structure, facilities, & facts | britannicaExisting space programs are looking for the ideal locations in the solar system to build colonies that may, for instance, supply some of our agricultural purposes to lessen the greenhouse gas emissions that this industry produces on our planet while being used for human settlement.

Interplanetary protections
Breaching Earth’s atmosphere and orbiting the planet at thousands of miles per hour is no easy feat. Spacecraft, telescopes, and satellites need to be constructed to withstand extreme conditions and the potential hazards of space debris.

Putting safety first in space resulted in equipment like shock absorbers, ice-resistant electronics, and fire retardant materials. These developments help skyscrapers endure earthquakes, keep airplanes from icing over in cold temperatures, and prevent firefighters from sustaining severe burns.

Nice catch, mate; thank you for your time in exposing more hidden papers about this scam project.


The Orbital Space Technology account on Twitter is verified. I hope that investors will not be deceived by this blue checkmark because most of the owners of scam projects subscribe to the new Twitter Blue subscription service in order for investors to believe that they are legitimate.

I hope you will report the link to their Twitter account, and please support the flag of the bounty manager.

2- Flag on Formula Bounty: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;flag=3122

[shasan]

please support the flag of the bounty manager.

I have just given negative trust and I have also supported the flag though I am confused it will change anything. The bounty manager is a newbie account though by spending few dollar bought copper membership. I think s/he will do more accounts like that and will try to earn more money. And I also think that the person had a reputed account on this forum which s/he use to get projects. You can post the flag here to get more attention.

First of all, I would like to express my admiration for the efforts you are making to expose these scammers through your constant posts. Well done.

I supported the flag and also reported the scammers twitter account.

Although I doubt the scammers will stop, but at least reporting will reduce the number of potential victims, they cannot be stopped because they can simply create new accounts, but this is what we can do, always expose them and reveal their deception methods.

The BM has responded. He ended the scam campaign and closed the thread as you can see in his post. His flag seems to have had an effect.
But now I'm not sure if the flag should stay. Albon should decide that.

Formula Bounty did the same thing "back in February", but I'm not sure if he/she actually forgot to lock the thread ^{[at that time]} or not ^{[quite strange]}!

But now I'm not sure if the flag should stay.

Considering that we're talking about one of those managers that literally works for any kind of project, I think that flag should stay since those who participate in his/her campaigns have a very high chance of getting nothing for their efforts!

Yes, it is true; the flag should remain for those who always promote scam projects and do not learn from their previous mistakes. Also, the warning message that remains at the top of the current bounty topics managed by this manager is a great warning message for guests and newbies to know that their investment in these bounty projects will put them at high risk because, as you know, beginners in this field do not have sufficient experience in doing adequate research and in defining legit projects for investment. When they find Bounty topics like this without a warning message and find thousands of Bounty hunters promoting them, they will not think and invest in their currencies on the basis that they are not scams.

Plus, we shouldn't forget about all the shady projects he managed using his old account, persgrata.

BridgeSwap --> SCAM!
FINANCE GLOBAL --> SCAM!
CoinSale Finance --> SCAM!
Yearn.Global --> SCAM!
FLAMING FARM --> SCAM!
CRYSTAL DEFI --> SCAM!
VOLENTIX --> SCAM!
PartyLand --> SCAM!

The flag should stay, imho.

Oh, they belong to him too?! I wasn't aware of that. That's really a lot. Then the flag should really remain. Apparently he's really not learning anything and the flag will hopefully reduce these scam bounties.
Will also support the flag.

First of all, I am sorry as I have not followed the topic. But for the campaign managers trust as well as the flag should remain the same as the campaign manager usually promote scam projects as there is no chance to get any legit project by the profile. And one more thing is that the campaign manager literally has not yet stopped promoting if s/he stopped then the text of the campaign should be removed.

No problem. There is no reason to apologize. Yes, most likely you are right and everything should stay the way it is. After all, there have already been a lot of scam bounties from this manager and without the flag and the trust rating it would probably continue like this. That's all true and I didn't want to say anything against it.
