Hello guys. Listen, I need your advice, you've heard of groups selling private allocations of different cool projects. Here is an example such as this one : https://t.me/joinchat/FYpmdxbBRBNUqlrZkTaS2A .
That sounds very interesting and there are a lot of interesting projects out there, but I don't want to get scammed.
What do you think?

Pre IEO is something new. ;D It seems I have not seen this before. Hidden advertising of another "very useful" channel for selling air?

Some projects are collecting funds firstly on their own by selling tokens on their website and if it is not enough, they are doing an IEO. But things like strange Telegram groups where people are selling "Pre IEO" tokens is just silly.

be careful because in my opinion, there is no guarantee especially after entering the group telegram I'm not sure but if you intend to buy tokens from them, I suggest using escrow even though the cost is borne by you but at least guarantee.

Pre-IEO? IEO is done through exchange to ensure that a project is really selling their token. I have no idea how Pre-IEO works and how this could be good.

You should try to check if they have an ANN thread here so you will see everyone's comment.
When you are in a telegram, you cannot ensure if all the members are legit, some maybe are accomplice just to sell the project.

Why not display the telegram group link in its real name? Well, it's clear you want folks to join.
There was formally nothing like Pre-IEO, but it seems projects teams and exchanges are now agreeing to that. It might seem like a way of knowing how the real IEO will look like and trying to make awareness.

If you don't want to get scammed then don't deal outside the platform that offers that IEO.

Invest and participate to the respective exchange where that IEO is conducting its sale. Outside sales are potential scam and I've never heard that there are legit outside sales that were done before.

it can't be trusted and you should stay away from there because there will be no PRE-IEO. The exchange site is never trying to do that and the ICO just held pre-sale and before create cooperation with exchange site and PR-IEO never happen and it looks like another scam.

This group looks shady, they have very few members and it seems to me that they are just coming up with the concept because not in the history of IEO I have never heard of pre IEO before, I know of IEO projects and I think there should not be any reason for pre IEO since IEO projects does not take time to get sold out, it is only in ICO that I know they do pre ICO to sell to investors and the remaining left token is sold when it gets to the exchange for further distribution.

Binance came up with the idea of IEO and unless they are the ones that own the group, I will never pay attention to it because we have been warned of late that there are people who are now beginning to use IEO to scam people big time, and I think this group might be one of them.

Pre IEO is just like ICO projects doing presales as far as you arent buying from any third party you should be fine,although i havent invest in any pre IEO but ive heard about them before,do better research first and make sure the project is very active because  i sense one can easily get scammed with pre IEO so please proceed with extreme care
