Just read through this whole thread. @tmfp had started his investigation back in 2016 and quite clearly had brought out holes in the BGF, GainBitcoin, Amit Bhardwaj story namely:
1. Calculation on the impossibility of gains GB was touting on website
2. Fake images and Fake testimonials used in their website
3. All the string of companies leading to an imaginary Mr. Lee in Singapore.
As the stroy progressed through 2017, A lot of Indian idiots had already put in their money in the greed for easy returns. The Fiat gains this Amit Bhardwaj made from rising Bitcoin prices has ensured that he had enough money to put up billboards and full page ads in leading newspapers, Besides getting Shilpa Shetty to endorse it for him.
This time he enticed the online group of people with MCAP. They too fell for it and have already handed over a huge amount of their money to him by buying high and Selling low on the fake graphs created by him. Man, this guy is a genius who has bascially made a "Chutiya/ cunt" out of us greedy/foolish/ Indians who themselves are shallow and unethical.
Indians are probably amongst the most unethical, shallow people in the world.
We have already earned ourselves a name for "Ohh girl..show bob and vagine..I want you FRAAND...want sax" posts in the chatting world.
Now we are out here shaming ourselves, falling over each other to get the maximum profit at the cost of others.
I agree that there are scam-artists everywhere but I don't know, maybe it has to do with our historic poverty that we simply cannot handle knowledge and money with grace. Sure, there are some very bright people among us but I guess, thats the reason they all leave for foreign shores. Well, Thats just my personal opinion. I wish we'll improve our standards someday.
To all those who have been scammed, I think the Scamster will pull another fine trick. He'll have enough profits to share some crumbs with you guys and you all will be thankful to him for returning fraction of your investments back. Or possibly, he will identify the most well-connected and potential dangerous amongst you and clear your dues, or even offer extra to shut you up. Which you surely will like a good dog that an Indian with a wad of money in his mouth is.
Some of the investors will shut and lick your wounds as you don't want to have your ego hurt by letting others know that you've been scammed.
The small investors (0.5-2 btc group), will anyways not have enough energy to carry this forward.
He'll continue to legitimize his further investments ensnaring more people. As the economy of scale kicks in to his rescue, we'll all forget that he was basically a scamster and everybody will become his lapdog form media to the small investors who lick out of his hand.
And then we'll be proud and declare: "IT HAPPENS ONLY IN INDIA"..
As researched by tmpf in the very beginning, it is possible that his funds and his antics may also be behind the following websites. They may not be complete scams as they have already diversified using the stolen money, but still, take caution when putting your money into them

The above companies seem to have a different set of management and one of the members has put up a post on their blog dissociating themselves from Amit Bhardwaj. I am editing the post to keep this straight:
Here's the link

Though, A company claiming to deal with Blockchain saying that "We don't understand mining hardware" is pretty childish. Hope they do some good work like they claim in their swanky website.
