It's why I start searching to find the real person from this team. https://i.ibb.co/bXw3XWy/Screenshot-150.png (https://ibb.co/Zx4JxLw) https://i.ibb.co/8450rsp/Screenshot-151.png (https://ibb.co/rf6mx0S) https://i.ibb.co/3f5Zsyy/Screenshot-152a.png (https://ibb.co/mvrWBCC) He is using fake clothes from clipart by flip horizontally that images https://www.hiclipart.com/free-transparent-background-png-clipart-lfgog https://i.ibb.co/cgD14pk/Screenshot-154.png (https://imgbb.com/) http://sydex.net/page86704 https://i.ibb.co/d6LwMVJ/Screenshot-153.png (https://ibb.co/92Vkg13) Creator Tool Adobe Photoshop CC 2019 (Windows) http://fotoforensics.com/analysis.php?id=75048402f002d80c9856d5bed6e2d1b30a145562.73013 https://i.ibb.co/nwDDnp2/ava3-lg.jpg (https://imgbb.com/) https://i.ibb.co/LZbzkbB/CCW-web-ready-cropped.jpg (https://ibb.co/RDZpvZt) https://nebraskaspineandpain.com/physicians-staff/ Real name : Chase C. Woodward, MD, MPH https://i.ibb.co/SmWD8sr/ava1-lg.jpg (https://imgbb.com/) It's very hard to find the same face, I think he is using many tools to make his face so unique. PROOF RESOLVED I can't really speak of the legitimacy of kingcasino.io, nor i can confirm names/identities provided by them to be real or not but i'm pretty positive that the examples given in the first post are incorrect. Tom Bastian is not the guy from the picture referred to by kingcasino as "Michael" Chase C. Woodward is also not "Joe Maddox" I've compared images using Amazon Rekognition, service i have been using for more than 1 year and a half, with over 1000 images checked. Here are the results: Joe Maddox vs Chase C. Woodward (https://i.ibb.co/4fGBK1n/rgfvd.png) Joe Maddox vs image posted by colin xu (https://i.ibb.co/fN4WLr4/dbvbf.png) Michael vs Tom Bastian (https://i.ibb.co/zZT7hLN/dsfas.jpg) Michael vs image posted by colin xu (https://i.ibb.co/1q40fzt/wfscc.png) Steven Nguyen vs image posted by colin xu (https://i.ibb.co/FwXRCkK/sdfcsvz.jpg) For reference, data with over 98% similarity should be considered conclusive. Images with low 90% and under inconclusive. Are the images on kingcasino.io website photoshopped? Yes, they are. Why did they use fake suits? Well, hard to say honestly. Are these manipulated images look suspiciously fake? They do, very much indeed! Are Tom Bastian and Chase C. Woodward the people from the pictures on kingcasino.io website? No, they are not. Title: Re: [SCAM] kingcasino.io Photoshopped fake team Post by: nutildah on February 25, 2020, 01:38:17 PM Another good catch. Indeed the pictures are awful, kind of a laughable attempt at making a fake team for what is no doubt a scam project. I'm going to be using that fotoforensics website more often, thanks for including the link.
Its worth pointing out that the OP didn't write up an ANN for the project but is just linking its Telegram airdrop bot -- possibly he collects income from referrals this way. If you look at his recent posts (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=2118673;sa=showPosts), you can see he does this for a lot of ICOs. Title: Re: [SCAM] kingcasino.io Photoshopped fake team Post by: Harlot on February 25, 2020, 05:09:00 PM I'm 100% with you about kingcasino.io having a fake team but I don't think their fake CEO, Joe Maddox, is the same person as Chase Woodward their facial features from chine to even their eyebrows might be the same but if you look at their earlobes you will see that they aren't identical. Aside from that the fake CEO has a visible scar on his forehead while Woodward on his only picture doesn't have one. But I still believe that this website contains a fake team given on how they photoshopped most of their team members' pictures.

No wonder, they are not posting their ANN here as they will be exposed hard.

How do these pictures prove this project isn't a scam? Who are these people and why are they wearing fake suits? Why don't they have any sort of social media links on their website?

I'm Michael from the picture above. The photo is photoshoped but not fake. Steven and the others approached me to help out with marketing and some technical development, and I think their own marketing team was just too eager to create something to show, so they went ahead and used a picture from one of our meetings before I could supply a real one. Will do that in the next days. Social media links will go up then, too. The current website is still a work in progress and the bounty link got posted a bit too early (in my opinion), but I'm a legit person and part of the team. Cheers, Michael My social media links are https://www.facebook.com/michael.ger.cal and https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelfunkbauer/ Edit: proof: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/michaelfunkbauer_post-to-proof-that-i-work-with-kingcasino-activity-6638455742372331521--hpg Title: Re: [SCAM] kingcasino.io Photoshopped fake team Post by: joeKGG on February 26, 2020, 01:07:32 PM Hi all,
of course it is very difficult or even impossible to find the same face as mine, because I'm unique and don't have a twin brother. I am happy to invite everyone to Frankfurt am Main, Germany for a coffee, if you would like to convince yourselves of my existence. Carpe Diem, Joe Maddox www.kct.kingcasino.io https://t.me/KingcasinoAirdropBot?start https://t.me/kingcasinogroup) and channel (https://t.me/kingcasinochannel).

Sorry for misunderstanding of your project. -snip- Are the images on kingcasino.io website photoshopped? Yes, they are. Why did they use fake suits? Well, hard to say honestly. Are these manipulated images look suspiciously fake? They do, very much indeed! Are Tom Bastian and Chase C. Woodward the people from the pictures on kingcasino.io website? No, they are not. Well, I appreciate your effort to proofing their face. As I said above, my curious started when I saw their team doesn't have any social media and the clothes is not real. Usually when I do google search on each member, we will see many social media with the same photo with the project. But, this project is not... we only see the background not the member face. Forgive me for my bad, since I was doing a bad thing to expose wrong scam project. And I also agree with you, I have no idea of using fake suits. Because I usually thought about fake suits/ fake members its mean fake project. Should I delete this thread? Since I was expose wrong news Title: Re: [SCAM] kingcasino.io Photoshopped fake team Post by: BlackRed on February 26, 2020, 04:06:30 PM Founder is very nice

What kingcasino team did is really weird, so no wonder that first thought was that team is fake.

It may not be a scam per se, but locking it might not be a bad idea. Update the the title of the thread and remove the word "scam", perhaps.
