Title: Please Ban all these Fundraising/IPO Scams
Post by: escrow.ms on February 04, 2014, 09:19:12 PM
It's attracting too many scammers and peoples are getting scammed.

For eg:

He collected 2.5 BTC from users for what?  Giving his imaginary shares to new users who are not aware of these kind of scams.

What I don't understand is why would people invest in this from a user who is barely a week old? Baffling. Banning these sorts of threads wont stop idiots from being scammed regardless.

Ms.Collec has been sending me links whenever he/she sees any IPO announcements and I've been giving them negative trust. That's about all we can do at this point.
