Title: Angel Investors needed for Poloniex listing/ICO
Post by: DavidSantamaria on January 25, 2017, 01:05:50 PM
Best news of the world!

Poloniex accepted Om for listing and ICO, for a modest 2BTC. The listing cost 1BTC.

Use this address (my main Coinbase one) if you want to help me get Om listed as fast as possible.

An Angel investor is needed, for once.
Or a loan, minimum for the ICO, tell me if you can.

Thank you, everyone.

I will keep you updated.

I suspect you've fallen for a scam.

If you had an email claiming to be from poloniex using poloneixexchange@gmail.com then it's a scam. Poloniex doesn't use gmail accounts. The same scammer contacted two other coin's devs asking for 2 Bitcoins to host an ICO on poloniex. If you had the same email shown in red below then you've been contacted by the same scammer.

COIN DEVS: BEWARE OF SCAMMERS CLAIMING TO BE FROM POLONIEX. I (busoni/Tristan) am the only one who has the authority to list coins. Furthermore, I will never approach you and ask for a bounty.


Found myself a funny email in my inbox today. I wanted to notify you and other developers of this.

Someone tried to do the same scam to the BipCoin dev team. It's word for word identical. Poloniex doesn't use a gmail address, but the scammer does.

It claims to be from  Tristan D’ agosta
at email
poloneixexchange@gmail.com

IP
86.45.252.233
 is in  Ireland, Laois, Portlaoise
is not a proxy. Is sent from a mobile network.

While I'm sure the person at the other end of this email would take my Bitcoin if I responded enthusiastically, I'm sure it would not result in my coin BipCoin being listed on Poloniex Exchange.

First, that's not Tristan's email. I know Tristan's email address because a friend whose coin is on Poloniex gave me an introduction. Tristan's email is not a gmail address.

Second, I doubt anyone at Poloniex Exchange has a gmail address that misspells "Poloniex"!  lol.

Just wanted to give a heads up for any other altcoin devs who recieve the same scammy message. It's not Poloniex. And these people will probably come up with a different email now that spells Poloniex right, like
PoloniexTristan@gmail.com
or something like that.


Poloniex company email addresses are not gmail addresses.

Coin devs: if you receive a message soliciting payment for listing, it's an impostor. We do not accept payment for listing coins.

I think poloniex will not requesting btc to listed in their exchange. Poloniex will choose your coin if your coin have great user base, feature, and not trash coin

What has the standard coin been deployed by poloniex?

I don't see anything about that, they just add the coin which the coin make him will be feeling interesting with it.

Be careful with your word, it doesn't making sense.

This scam method is plaguing time to the time.

It's better that it is clarified this early and people are warned about this scam before people start falling into this,I don't like to locked this thread so people will become aware of it,I'm sure that scam email will continue to scam those newbie devs.

I think the thing about this imposter should be followed up so that everything is clear and there will be no scams like this again, otherwise it is very dangerous for everyone and there will be more fraudsters fraudsters like this.

I agree why locked it so people will forget this email scam and the perpetrators  continue to scam other people,we need an ongoing update on this thread,in fact we need a scam thread and a link to this thread.
