READ: Last November 09, 2020, I posted on their ANN (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5287954) an accusation against the project since their website had a similar content with YFIM.MOBI's website. Unfortunately, defitoken (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=2875904) ignored my accusation and proceeded to create a new ANN. As correctly pointed by @holydarkness, YFIB copied the contents of YFI.MOBI which was also a scam project that was last reposted on September 19, 2020


Copied content:
  • app.yfi.mobi
  • https://medium.com/@yfimobi/after-yfii-forks-yfi-mobile-app-yfim-will-be-airdropped-and-listed-on-the-exchange-a6191a7100b1

Do we have an ann thread for YFIM or an official timeline when they first started their project? Maybe unrelated, but those opening were also used in another YFI-letter project, this one is YFIQ, although they seemed to be dead now. How reputable is YFIM? Can't find their ann thread, I'd like to learn about them.

Edit: oh, nvm, they're scam too https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5276879.0

Ignoring your messages means they don't have any plans to response or explain anything about your accusation. It just justified that they are guilty of the exposed information and since the account is newbie he doesn't seem to care at all.

But its good that you informed us about this. Regarding copy cat projects, there are more there doing these things and not using bitcointalk forum.

When the flag is activated will definitely supported it.

Thank you for the heads up about the flag!

Yup, OP did not respond to my accusation he proceeded to create another ANN which contained the same information as to his first ANN that he posted. He blatantly ignored the accusation that his project was copied from a proven scam project in the forum already. Such facts constitute and equate that this project is HIGHLY a scam too.

I have updated the flag and I wish that other forum members would support it!

It's really good that you have warned their ann thread also. It do really help when it it could see on the first page. :)

And it's pure scam when a the project team ignore anything wrong related about the project. They ignored you because they have nothing to explain that they are legit. :)
Flag will be supported from my end.
