Title: Scam on Not Scam (Crectonium)
Post by: Anton_D on March 04, 2018, 07:50:10 PM
I came across a bounty https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2966216.0 (crectonium) and several questions appeared:
1. Photo of the project team. There are nowhere common pictures, only faces.
2. Site project https://crestonium.io/ On the project site there is a clipping of another site of the project (https://immvr.se/) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2934174.0
My opinion is that the Crectonium project is scammers.
P.S. I apologize for my bad english. Maybe I'm wrong. ::)

I did some of  their bounties but part of me kept thinking it was a scam project.  They advertise a high amount for the bounties to get people to join and advertise their scam.

many who participated here complained that you are right all along, these are typical scammers who did not very well design their activities)

1. What do you mean there are no common pictures, only faces? Some of them do have linkedin profiles.

2. What do you mean with ''there is a clipping'' of another project?

I don't see anything suggesting they are scammers although some of their team members look like children but really a part from that it seems fairly ok.

1.What do you mean not common pictures ? They look pretty common to me unless you can prove they're copied/stolen from elsewhere.There is a high chance of that happening though.
2.That image could be just part of the template both the websites bought ? There is a fair chance the templates could be ripped off from another website.

They website looks scammy to me  given the fact they're selling their ICO with PayPal-MasterCard-Visa.

If you need to ask if a project is a scam then it probably is.
Go with your gut instinct on this one and just steer clear of it.
Because if they can not prove to you on their own website that they are not a scam
then they probably are.

''If you need to ask if a project is a scam then it probably is.'' Bullshit, people are concerned with scams because, well, many icos are scam. Just because someone might think it's a scam, doesn't mean it is. I mean personally I always treat every ICO like a scam from the beginning. There isn't really ''solid'' proof they can provide to know whether they are for real or not, sometimes the team and pictures are accurate and real people and they still scam in the end.
