Title: Genisyscoin.org - SCAM? - Fake team member
Post by: Trttn on September 13, 2018, 11:51:35 AM
What happened: Fake advisors, fake feedback, no team profiles. Whitepaper consists of only 6 pages. Low quality photos, poorly made website and ANN thread

The project looks really weak! But advisors are too solid...
Leon Li (https://www.linkedin.com/in/leon-li-13621bb8/?originalSubdomain=cn)
Jesse Powell (https://www.linkedin.com/in/jessepowell/)
Changpeng Zhao (https://www.linkedin.com/in/cpzhao/)
All "advisors" have no mention about genisyscoin on their social media profiles

It's almost funny

I tried to find this "feedback", but discovered nothing..

There are solid adivors there but the rest of the elements/features do not comply.

In conclusion, why with such connections weren't they able to write their whitapper properly and create LinkedIn profiles and ANN thread?
In my opinion it's because it's a scam website/project.

P.S. If you can prove the opposite, I'll delete this topic (no problem here)

You're right (yes, most likely it's just another scam website)...
- Last couple of websites with that template, turn out to be scam projects.

In addition to your findings, apparently the image used for one of their developers (Jose R. Johnson (https://imgur.com/a/JvNsTcl)), is a popular image among romance scammers:
- Romance Scam (a lot of name combinations) (https://www.romancescam.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=419338)
- Different name (https://rus-women.top/anketa/456)
