That was a mistake the web developer made when the website was initially made live and those pictures were the initial pictures which was on the template used in building the website. The website was made live in time due to the bounty so participant have some resources to link to, the website has now been fully updated. This was not intentional to mislead anyone, the pictures and profile were not officially vetted by the admins.

What have you been doing last 4 years if not mining little fortune?

Profit calculator is promising 0.5% daily...

...so annual return is much higher than calculator shows.

Of course, every good pyramid need promoters...
