I had the chance of interviewing Alex Preukschat, the founder of the project to get an inside peek at their release.

Brief due diligenceAnything with the name GAW is suspect, so I took a look at this company closer and in in my humble opinion (IMHO) I believe they are a scam. There are a lot of red flags, not limited to the “supposed” $1.6 million investment, that scare the hell out of me. I am not giving advice, but I wouldn’t trust them. - Founded in July 2014
- BTCGaw Inc. is a US based customer with an address in Delaware.
- They have clients all over the world and we can accept clients from any country.
- There is no Privacy Policy
- There is no Terms of Services Statement
- There is no Team Page
- 143 people have written feedback. Only three testimonials show up.
- Laila Risan is listed as the domain contact, She is located in Norway.
