Now what information do you require to justify it's not a scam project.

provide your own evidence to prove that your project is original and not plagiarised and this accusation will be removed. until then the accusation will stay as long
as you haven't proven that your project isn't plagiarised.

You have provided very little information about your project, no white paper, no mention of people involved in the project.  
At the moment, we only have the copied information in the announcement. By the way, can you explain why your coin is pretending to be bitcoin?
Don't you think it could mislead investors? Do you think that a project that begins its journey with plagiarism will be worthy of trust?

README.md is also contained the same plagiarised content from Bitcoin Green project.
