Title: DavidHume - Tangerin ICO : scam accusation
Post by: Arpetuos on May 30, 2018, 12:42:35 PM
Dear community,

I feel like I need to share you some details about a scammer account.

DavidHume (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=345353) started an ICO ANN post in August 2017. (See it here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2074493.0))
Its ICO raised money, but the account of DavidHume (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=345353) stopped to connect in March 2018.
The website of the project is down for a while. (https://tangerine.is)
I suspect this account of being bought, because it was created in 2014, and has a low activity. It came back in activity just to launch its ICO and raise money. Then, it disappeared.

In order to avoid this account of re-doing other scams and being trusted for its longevity, I decided to distrust him, and to invite you in this post to do the same. (Trust panel (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=345353))
As a reference, do not hesitate to add this post.

Thank you if you are sharing my point of view.

Kind regards,
Arpetuos

Hi, the topic doesn't fit in meta, it should be moved to the scam accusations sub (bottom of the page, left corner then "move topic" to the right section).

Edit :
Thank you for this remark. In old days there was a meta section for this kind of problems.
I am happy a new sub has been created.

Regards,
Arpetuos
You are welcome.

You are not right. The site was offline, technical work. See Twitter! The site is working. And you're just a fool)

You are incorrect, the website was only shortly online again. Since then it has been offline for months.

I can verify the accusations of OP. This ICO scammed me as well and run off with all the investors funds.

EDIT: Dont forget to also leave a bad review for https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=141210 (Tangerine second account for support cases)
