Thanks for your post -Greed-, people need to stay away from these frauds. More people need to see the questionable facts of this so called ICO.

Bought account + ICO = 99,(9)% SCAM!

No real whitepaper - check



The whitepaper (I can merely call it a whitepaper) is utter bullshit with no technical details. And according to that whitepaper the decentralized cloud system is, I quote, a group of nodes ordered by geolocation.
You can find more nonsense in this 'whitepaper': https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8VJa9S_WxSSSHJhN0o0QkVPN1E


Unrealistic - check
The devs want to deliver: a) CLOUD-BASED BLOCKCHAIN b) DECENTRALIZED TRADING / STOCK MARKET c) FLEXIBLE PLUG-IN SYSTEM within 1 fucking month!
Read more about the key features: https://web.archive.org/web/20160818041108/https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1552176.0
Also custom tokens, smart contacts, and other (see  whitepaper 3. CORE FEATURES).

Ethrereum is a half of it and it took 30M USD and 2 years of development to create such a system. All these things declouds devs are gonna develop with 300 BTC and one dev. Fucking genius!

So let's conclude: declouds is no ordinary but bad-prepared scam. Well, scammers you evolve so do I...


What do you do if you invested?
1) Ask for a refund (you will likely need to be REALLY persistent to get it)
2) Be smarter next time and do your own research.

ALSO: Refundable ICOs now must be a good practice. Welcome to the world's first refundable ICO (AntShares): https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1571738.0

Good job debunking this! You totally destroyed declouds reputation! Awesome research! Unbelievable! I can only begin to imagine how much work is behind researching this in such great detail.

Since you seem to have a talent and motivation for scam detection... Could you please consider to set up blog where you aggregate your thoughts? I would make sure to register and perhaps donate. A bitcointalk thread would also work, but waste much more time. I just like to subscribe to your new posts and not all the comments. Perhaps a self moderated thread where only you have the right to post.

.....
Fake escrow of made-up people who are obviously the same person.

Their idea of an "escrow" are two completely unknown (most likely made-up) persons that are definitely the dev himself.

SebastianJu - good escrow i can recommend BTW so don't connect him with that shit

[Clement Kaliyar]

thank you for issuing the scam alert i was scanning for new ICO's to invest and was checking all the background details of declouds when i noticed your thread and the details you provided helped me in searching more about niktitan132 and his talent in deception, slipping away from all the accusations and stuff.

So this ICO has a good escrow? So the investors will get their money back?

Nope, SebastianJu (a good escrow) wasn't the escrow and investors will not get a refund.

Ya, it's a scam. Compare the two images..

This is getting more hilarious by the minute.

Obviously photoshopped. It doesn't even take a forensic analysis or an image search to see that, the photos are obviously shopped from the way that people are (not) looking at each other.

The second photo was taken from here: http://aktion-pro-aktie.de/deutschlands-groesste-direktbankenstudie/ then shopped the "dev" with his mic on it. Good job.

Compare:

Thats what you call a scam. Great finding..

Very good

[Gutembergin]

So how much did he end up scamming?

[andyste]

This is disturbing. I've seen this spammed on twitter for a while and almost started to believe that it's not a scam. 

if you not believed about decloud scam
you can see and read offcial annoucment threead in decloud
this dev not response about ask for partcipant buy ico decloud

not update about follow siganture campaign, and account dev this not active again this forum

[Kaznachej123]

     Now we must be very careful when choosing a company ICO! Almost every day I see the news about the many new ICO and many of them are unwilling to simply take money from us

[Kaznachej123]

    I'm at the beginning of ICO deCLOUDs little side chapel time, well not understand who is who, and invested a little about Che is now greatly regret. But s other hand - it is the experience and the following companies ICO I will learn a lot more!

I can see the editing part of the pircture without need a specifical software and omg, i guess at seeing about declouds thread this is a real but just look from a lomg distance... Or i don't zooming the picture.....

[Gutembergin]

Is there a known total amount that was scammed from real investors?

[Kaznachej123]

   TOTAL FUNDS RAISED: 296.75020992 BTC and maybe more today who will tell the truth, only one guess!

[Robertqueen2]

This project seemed to be legit in the beginning, it is very annoying how they managed to steal about 300BTC, scammers are anywhere, I remembered LIR which scammed people recently, the same scheme, looking legit firstly then run away with the money, I lost money in LIR but fortunately didn't invest in deCLOUDs.

[AmoreJaz]

I am very sorry that nobody wanted to listen to me!!! and as such whoever did lose anything by investing ito this very old and obvious scam...

Deserves what happened because they are not  listening..

Unfortunately i am laughing my but off now!!!!

i have asked several times  several questions that need to be answered before investors adopt this coin.
and as normal the Dev is ignoring my questions. that is not good for investors of a new coin to get directly ignored simply because the question im asking is uncomfortable to answer.
as this coin is trying to merge into the crypto world and it is advertising it is backed by precious metals.
looking for proof of the backing is normal or it is simply backed by a picture of precious metals and the devs idea of precious metal backing is a picture  on a webpage.
 proof of backing is required

sorry but we need always some time in order to answer any question.

1. after sucesfull ICO we’ll be registering a UK company with financial license
2. the nessesary amount of metals will be stored by UBS Bank (SWITZERLAND)

first you need to have a successful ICO ?
so i can presume that with the funds of that ICO you would be buying the Precious metals?
if the ICO is not fully successful the the metals are not going to be bought correct?

yes, correct the first we need to have successful ICO, if not the funds will be refunded to users.

Practically your launch is for the other people to buy at a higher then reasonable price your self invented crypto currency
your actual backing by precious metals are= you have none on any of those precisou metals
the picture on your OP represents 4 main precious metals that you do not have
selling your coin in a so called ICO and using some of the profits or proceeds to buy a small amount of precious metals
putting those metals "if you actually buy them and if you actually put them in a bank and all of this only if your ICO goes well.
in plain words your only backing is for others to send you cash so you can hold their money and do what you think is best ,when and where and how you want to.!

starting a OP with full deception is not a good idea

[robelneo]

I think they are connected to ebitz scam,they are upgrading everytime they launch a new scam site people here really need to take a note what to look for an ICO project and expose them as early as we can,not after they run with the money..
