Title: RUBIUS,IO - Another scam
Post by: tumis on February 13, 2019, 07:15:01 AM
The site does not work.
Tokens are worth nothing.

Another project of scammers.
And bitcointalk rubs his hands.

The only thing that counts is that it  earns money from selling the rank of "cooper member" which means as much as a "scammer member".

You need to follow proper format to create a scam accusations topic against anyone. The format will be found in here: Scam Report Format (Use it to make scam reports properly) (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=260073.0)

Cheers :-)

Yea, its seems to me. Here is Archived website (http://web.archive.org/web/20180809125059/https://rubius.io), according to roadmap their services should launch completely on Q4,2018. But its offline now, that means they have exit with fund. I don't found any updates also on their social media (https://mobile.twitter.com/Rubius_Inc), so is it not a exit scam ? Although tagging them isn't not going to helpful but they deserve it. I will take a look on BM during my free time.

Hello OP, here you are making an accusation without using the correct format or providing anything else, such as a link, a photo, etc.
We are doing the work for you here, and you say that "bitcointalk rubs his hands."  What do you mean with that?

Nobody is forced to buy a "cooper member", people buy mostly for the purpose to publish their ANN with graphics, etc...
But elaborate more what you trying to say with this:

"The only thing that counts is that it  earns money from selling the rank of "cooper member" which means as much as a "scammer member".

It appears to be a Pump and Dump type scheme.

There are 1400 transactions with 0 (zero) ETH sold. It appears they were sent for free.

ANd the contract creator person got a big chunk of those tokens - 33.84%

Their bounty spreadsheet contains: 1557 entries - (possible this is where they got the ETH addresses to send free tokens)

And as you can see the archive: THERE IS NO TEAM. This is why nobody should invest in a project without a team.
