understand what you mean.
it is equally fair to say that even with a verified location, email and phone support, and even with photos that it might turned out to be a fake.
employees won't know what the boss is thinking. they could be employed to answer call and then sacked with a quick notice. I know one fake mining company did this.
It might be legit because they stopped accepting orders for batch 1. They could have keep accepting and earning more, then run away in feb or march. why do they have to stop now?
Hate to be a Debbie Downer or Negative Nancy but one could say that a scammer could publicly *state* that Batch 1 is no longer available just to trick people into thinking they're legit (since enough someones obviously supposedly trusted them to buy out Batch 1).
That is *not* a good enough reason to throw your BTC irretrievably to a new mfg. without a track record.
The CH forum may be a cruel mistress but it's a (mostly) fair, feisty, and thorough mistress.
