Glad I actually helped many of you. If anything, I learned a valuable lesson and also feel more obligated to the bitcointalk community than ever before. If we can be sure to alert each other quickly when these things happen, we are surely saving each other from wasting time, energy, and money. In the future I will be more diligent to ask questions and dig deeper into a team than I have been in the past. I guess when something looks too good to be true it is. Sadly, if I had gotten out when I thought I should, I would have made about $1,000 from the 1100 OTH I had from the original airdrop, 2nd round, and the community awards. I'm kicking myself in the ass because I am not only out the time, energy, and money from the bounty and future airdrops (POS), but I believed so much in the project I didn't sell when I had the chance to make a very good profit.
I am learning so much, but it is truly painful.
