Less than 1 hour later after exposed, this is what their ANN post looks like:
They changed the topic name from Tawagar to DEEX EXCHANGE.







UPDATE:

and now they replaced their ANN post with this:

TODAY We managed to call the attention of some "experts" and they removed their ratings. - falling from 4.0 to 2.8
They said they were unaware of scam and ICOBench never informed them, keeping them on the dark.

NO Team, No Whitepaper, Unfinished website, Fake Clients, Fake address

Here they posted their website is ready!




There is nothing about them!




Their clients are fake - images from stock photos.

Contact information is fake!



Country of Operation??

And that applies to all team member's that failed KYC and passed- it is a big mystery -(Wondering how much they paid)





Last week we reported to ICOBench that this project is a SCAM, and below was their answer.
So, basically, ICOBench will accept any excuse coming from a scammer without doing further investigation.





We posted in a few places about the corruption inside ICOBench giving this as one example. Here is one of the post:

No Team and NO Whitepaper?

Another LIE from this scammer.


They are working on their website that was offline (http://www.whdwf.sg).
They created some fake posts about getting support from other organizations.


http://www.whdwf.sg/blog/conversation-with-community-foundation-singapore







Who is Anne-Marie Clavelli
https://www.cf.org.sg/2017/10/12/arts-for-the-community/








Unable to find her email, Linkedin or other way to contact her, we reached the foundation on their Facebook. And below is their answer:
https://www.facebook.com/CommunityFoundationofSingapore/

I just visit their website, and it is very crappy. One of the worse websites out there, a 6 years old kid can do a better job.

Below is their whitepaper, that is all that they have written about their scam project. This is a lazy scammer.

Are you angry because you spent your last bucks to make this scam and you then you got caught?

Is that the language that you use with your mom when she catches you in a lie?

I think you need to seek professional counseling for your anger issues, and if that is unsuccessful, then perhaps you should check with a veterinarian to see if you have rabies, as it appears that you are foaming at the mouth.

why is your whitepaper plagiarized? With so many advisers (9) one of them should be able to tell you that your paper is plagiarized.. Or should we open a scam accusation based on plagiarism?
