Hi upon checking your whitepaper, 56% or about 3,300 words have been copied and plagiarized from this source: https://nsl.cse.unt.edu/sites/default/files/biblio/documents/Decentralized_Marketplace_Ethereum_Blockchain.pdf

I do advise that you create your unique WhitePaper without plagiarizing your work. Also, kindly provide a picture of the team behind the project. Thanks!

Hi, thanks for creating a thread for this! I posted this earlier on his ANN thread and you can also add this link https://nsl.cse.unt.edu/sites/default/files/biblio/documents/Decentralized_Marketplace_Ethereum_Blockchain.pdf on where he copied some parts of his whitepaper.

Another project with copy-pasted whitepaper and with fake testimonials. It seems they only replace the word Arcadierx with Urotoken. If we find closely maybe we can find the word arcadirex in the urotoken whitepaper. LOL.

BTW good job OP. I will tag the profile and support the flag. waiting for another catch like this. Thank you

You can't expect nothing more from this type of garbage. Actually they are expert in stealing ideas and other people's identities. Even i don't think they have time to check their stolen contents before launching every scam project. Just blindly copied all from another project and forgot to put their name there,,,huh.

Flag supported from my end and i hope others gonna do same.

Everything is organic in this Scam: fake testimonials for a non-existent project and Plagiarized whitepaper. I am sure that if they also presented their team, it would also consist of fake members. This is not surprising, they were in such a hurry to launch their project that they did not have time to prepare a good presentation. The flag is supported.

Using a fake tesmimony is just like a ponzi scheme implementing something like this lol.
And it is clear that if they present the team on the website they are certainly not legitimate members but looking for others to make the team, I think this is a good catch where their whitepaper has copied from other projects and of course I support in the flag.
