Title: [SCAM] Fake BitcoinTalk Token.
Post by: borovichok on December 13, 2021, 07:26:32 AM
What happened::
The bitcointalk fake token is finally here; I knew something like this was coming, but it took a long time; these con artists have impersonated high-profile people, companies, and movies, and now they're impersonating forums in order to deceive crypto newbies. It's amusing, but we all know that for the sake of the name "Bitcoin talk," thousands of people will fall for it. No scam attempt should be taken for granted, no matter how minor you think it is, because there are still people who are unaware that 85% or more crypto ICOs are scams.

I got added to a telegram group with 2k members, and after several hours of monitoring to see what was going on, the Admin deleted his telegram account after putting everything he needed to post on the group.

archive.org has some archives from this page.... They're a couple months old, probably from before they actively pushed a token... They still seemed to be asking donations at that time tough...
I've added some spaces in this url, so i hope google won't pick it up... You'll have to remove those spaces to open the url tough!!

I have checked and seen the same as you have mentioned. I think either there was any or there will have any; they are not real and they have been created for scam purpose or want to sell their domain at high rate. They are not operated by the bitcointalk team. If bitcointalk team operated it then they must announce it on the forum.
