Moderator if possible @Cyrus, request to remove my images and profile from this thread.

We are not stealing your image. Your name and image ARE LISTED on the scammer's website. We will do you a favor and remove the visual part, but we will keep the links.

Hello ICOEthics. I had a conversation with the team and this is NOT a scam. This is a team that wants to share its product. In addition, you can read an article about them: https://thecoinshark.net/capella-tokens-for-renewable-energy-let-s-save-the-planet-together/

Hello, stop playing games and also stop wasting our time.
You stole people's identity and now you try to get around? Doesnt work that way! We are not changing the status from SCAM - once a scam always a scam!

You changed your fake team, why?

Starting with EX -CEO - Chris Liu -
You used a Photo from a STOCK Video
https://www.shutterstock.com/video/clip-6435191-successful-young-asian-chinese-businessman-rooftop-modern

Why you demoted him to an INVESTOR position? He was: CEO - Business and Management Team

Your new Chris Liu face doesnt match the old one.

NEXT: You STOLE the image of these people below.
You updated your website with new images, but these new images doesnt match the old ones.
You just made clear to everyone that you STOLE someone's image for your benefit.
THIS IS A CRIME! Which makes you a SCAMMER and a CRIMINAL.

FAKE NAME: Stephen Randall
(Old picture) REAL NAME: Hakan Humus
https://www.emlaktasondakika.com/haber/sektorden-haberler/gayrimenkul-icin-strateji-platformunda-yeni-donem/119769
https://www.emlaklobisi.com/emlak/atiye-residencedan-ev-alan-yuzde-50-kazanir-32166
New picture of Stephen( we dont know who he is and we dont care to find out because nothing will change)

FAKE NAME: Gordon
(Old picture) REAL NAME: Robert Li
http://pages.jh.edu/~inouelab/people.html
New picture of Gordon (( we dont know who he is and we dont care to find out because nothing will change)

What happened: Suspicious Project / possible scam

The names of the team members appear to be a Joke.
Not sure if is the same person or not. There are no links to a profile.

20% of sales raise - NO EVIDENCE FOUND (10million goal x 20% = 2 million raised?)

FAKE SALES pop-up at the bottom of their page, like these ones below:

5 million jobs will be created??

Hello ICO ethics

We want to remove the scam post, its affecting our listing in various exchanges and its bringing a bad reputation to the project.

I told you we chose to operate anonymous that's why we used the pictures of those people in question, we are willing to comply by doing a video of the real team behind betlycoin is that okay ?

You dont make an ICO anonymous by stealing other people's image and putting their lives in danger.
Go ahead and make your video so we can send to the agencies that we reported you for identity theft.
As far as removing the post = NO, not happening on this planet.

Moderator if we upload our certificate of in-cooperation will this post about betlycoin scam be deleted ?

After stealing people's identity for your scam, creating a false accusation against us, and making that post that looks like a threat, what do you expect?

And the advice gave from me to guys.

enomcoin - They are a massive scan, Scrap my info profile and used, i report this to local policy on my country and cyber criminal division . They stolen my info. this guys never contact me.
I never join icos as a team member directly, !!!!! cto, developer or other, I never join on ico..

bitsmo - i advice to this guys - As i said before , as i said to you in linkedin. Just advisoring.
utpay - i advices to this guys - As i said before , as i said to you in linkedin. Just advisoring.

This morning you sent us the message below just because someone from Bitcointalk forum told you about our post where your name appears on a third scam.
You never replied to our message on October 12 when we alerted you about the second scam - enomcoin - neither you wrote the information above about enomcoin on the message below. You wrote: "As i spoked with you i give advices to all this guys that you mention, but no direct association on project."

Quote from: lfteixeira on November 03, 2018, 09:05:58 PM

I will request to you to remove this "suspicious" informations ABOUT ME. Im never ignore you, i always respond you and give all support on your questions, and you enter on this forum and 'share' my profile as supicious... This is not correct.

We are not stealing your information. It is published on public websites. Also we are not ignoring you, we were the ones who informed you about such scams.

Quote from: lfteixeira on November 03, 2018, 09:05:58 PM

Im not search image people on google to say if ico is a scam or not... This is not my job.
My job is help people and share my knowledge.

You are wrong. It is your job and obligation to know who you are dealing/working with, especially as an adviser.
If your job is to help people, find a way to help all the people that will loose their money on these scams because they believed in you as a real person (and you are) and as an adviser for these ICOs. It is really sad!

Quote from: lfteixeira on November 03, 2018, 09:19:58 PM

i never talk with this guys, never never...

they probably got my images profile pic and put here.

I NEVER, talk with this guys, never advice this guys, never nothing with this guys.

We sent you a message on Linkedin October 12 warning you about them as well.
But you never responded to our message neither took an action, such as getting your name and image removed from their website.

Quote from: lovesmayfamilis on November 03, 2018, 05:37:02 AM

they removed the photo and changed the names of the team members.

Good job finding this scam. Changing the team member's name and removing photos is proof they falsified the team. So, it is a SCAM.

Quote from: Patatas on November 03, 2018, 01:43:44 PM

As much as I support your scam finding abilities and always take them seriously, this one seems a bit off. Why? -> There are tons of white-paper writing authors who usually write white-papers for these low-class ICOs. Is there a chance all these white-papers are written by the same author in the same format?

Why do you see this "a bit off"?
A whitepaper is an important document of an ICO and it should be taken seriously and definitely shouldn't be plagiarized at all.
I changed the topic to "possible scam" until they came our with team members since it appears to be "under construction"on their website.

Also they are copying some content from project very similar to this one- https://parkgene.io

Please check your email and remove these posts immediately. This is slanderous - you are making a very strong accusation based on very weak evidence. You are free to ask any questions you'd like pertaining to the legitimacy of our exchange, but bold red caps calling us a scam without any real proof and without asking us any questions is simply ridiculous.

Nothing will be removed - go to https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5062208.0 and respond to the accusation there.

plagiarized whitepaper, possible scam.

Where are your team member photos and profiles?
