It's looking clear that they use fake team members picture from internet. On the other hand their bounty and ANN isn't look like professional work. His profile should be taged by DT so that people will be aware about them. Fake team means they can scam any time.

Zero doubt that this is a scam then. Even the seattleheadshot site has verified this (even though they can't identify who this really is, they've still stated that this person is not what Digithoth claims it to be (their CEO), which is more than enough evidence.

Overall, the site is very sketchy even without knowing the fact that their members are false. Like realistically, who needs a payment gateway for the book industry specifically. Seems a very far fetched idea that will never be able to generate any interest, even if it was legit. Rather, it's just a poorly thought out mission statement that is used by the founders to lure in unknowing investors.

I think that since fake linkedin profiles have been created, this can safely be classified as identity theft. have you tried reporting this info to seattleheadshotpro so that they can notify all the people who got their photoshoots ripped off? They have the right to know that someone is exploiting their pics for purposes of ID theft.
