Title: tarmi - bought legendary account - starting an altcoin with a self modded thread Post by: GSpgh on December 27, 2015, 06:07:16 PM tarmi asked to start a scam accusation thread about him/her so I'm happy to oblige
What happened: There is fairly solid proof (below) that "tarmi" account was being sold in July and likely sold later (November?) as the gap and change in posting style shows. Now tarmi started an altcoin called "coinbuilder" and uses a self-modded thread. Yeah I know this is the usual MO for altcoins these days... still an account sale is worth a red tag isn't it?

People change a lot and their interests too , even if we consider you accusation to be true then what was/is scammed ?

People change a lot and their interests too , even if we consider you accusation to be true then what was/is scammed ? ok i understand the "not scammed anyone yet" part but there is no benefit of the doubt to be given on the account sale. He/she clearly didn't buy the account just to enroll into sig campaign - went straight to launching a coin. Doesn't bother me, i'm not dealing with altcoins anyway but this is as shady as it gets. With a 100% premined ICO the trust in the dev by definition has to be 100% without even a shadow of a doubt and there is a lot more than a shadow here.

see even if his account now is legendary, u are doubting it and digging stuff about him. imagine he having a lesser account.. some cunning shit people would have speard rumors about it being scam and shit coin and SOME SCUM BAG would have stole the idea itself. jsut have a little faith .. people are tryng to do somthing differnt .. who is asking u to invest alot into it initially Title: Re: tarmi - bought legendary account - starting an altcoin with a self modded thread Post by: GSpgh on December 28, 2015, 06:22:05 PM maybe he bought the account so as to people believe his concept of CoinBuild. see even if his account now is legendary, u are doubting it and digging stuff about him. imagine he having a lesser account.. some cunning shit people would have speard rumors about it being scam and shit coin and SOME SCUM BAG would have stole the idea itself. jsut have a little faith .. people are tryng to do somthing differnt .. who is asking u to invest alot into it initially that's exactly what's wrong with this - using a legendary account to make the project look more trustworthy than it is why would anyone think that's an acceptable practice is a puzzle to me or how being a legendary could prevent the idea from being stolen, or benefit the project in any other meaningful way Title: Re: tarmi - bought legendary account - starting an altcoin with a self modded thread Post by: errorcoin22 on December 28, 2015, 07:03:23 PM maybe he bought the account so as to people believe his concept of CoinBuild. ... Passing yourself off as somebody else, to garner trust? You see nothing wrong with this?

he maybe a genuine or may not Title: Re: tarmi - bought legendary account - starting an altcoin with a self modded thread Post by: GSpgh on December 29, 2015, 02:49:34 AM What you guys are saying is true as well. we are stuck in a dilemma .... so in the end how do we trust someone... what criteria do we see ? he maybe a genuine or may not how about not buying into any ICOs or other distribution methods that scamdevs come up without even releasing a wallet Let them develop the product/service, show that it works, then pay if you need/want it. you know like most of the economy works... then it wouldn't matter if it's a noob or a legendary. but that's not going to happen because common sense is no match for greed and stupidity.

Well said mate.

I left neutral trust on this account quite some time ago. I've been worried about what the buyer might do with this account. Title: Re: tarmi - bought legendary account - starting an altcoin with a self modded thread Post by: GSpgh on December 29, 2015, 04:29:50 PM not sure why tarmi needs multiple threads for the coin but there's a new one:
