Tbh I can't believe there were actually officers go in there, plus they kinda deserve it

The biggest tool used by scammers themselves is social media this reason I am careful about things on social media(some of which I am not interested in)
 Don't know if this is a legit news or a scheme to tarnish tron's image well it's still up for debate but the move you need to make is take this post to the here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0

Apparently this was not a police raid on Tron.

"The price of Tron dropped precipitously Monday on inaccurate rumors of a “police raid” at the company’s office in Beijing. The real story, however, was far more interesting.

According to an official company post, the police arrived to protect the office from “people [who] were deceived by the so-called ‘Wave Field Super Community,'” a group that used the “Chinese-language version of TRON’s name to defraud investors.” The victims called Tron itself a scam and cited the alleged suicide earlier this month of one investor in Wave Field Super Community.

“The victims had been promised high rates of return on their investments in the name of TRON, BitTorrent and uTorrent,” the company wrote.

The bilked investors also stormed the wrong place. According to Tron, they approached the office of Raybo Technologies, a Tron affiliate that seems to have filed a number of U.S. trademarks for various Tron-related phrases.

“TRON officials expressed their sympathy and understanding for those who had been deceived, however, the company strongly condemns acts of violence that may be perpetrated as a result of events that are not in its direct control,” the company wrote."
