Re: [ANN][ICO] Polybius - SCAM

[p3ppymon]

Good I read around as I seriously wanted to invest some coins in it...
12688 user scammed? Isn't any insurance about? Some sort of smart contract should prevent money stolen by announcers if the ICO is unsuccessful!

WE should spread this, so that less people become victims.

[TobiasVR]

it's true? polybus scam ?

[LongTermCrypto]

 

On the Polybius site, the founders have no problem to show everyone they worked for Hashcoins.

https://polybius.io/#team


Hashcoins :

Polybius  


Maybe Hashcoins was one of their first projects but didn't went so well so they are trying a new and better project? .. (singing "always look on the bright side of life") ...

As I look through hashcoins social pages, on twitter the last post was in April 2016, and the fb page, also no posts since 2016, has returned active only to promote the polybius ico...

No statement at all from admins about what happened to Hashcoins

Something smells fishy..


 

[whale123]

So is it a scam or not?

[ElHomer]

IDK i ask the EY Swiss Company and i get this E-Mail.
I have also invested. I wish that i not 

I want to hope that is real. That's all we can do or not? They have our money

Whether it will happen like HASHCOIN which indicates Scam without any statement from them
Looking at the accumulated funds and the very many investors I suspect will be the manipulation of investor data and the manipulation of total funds obtained

IDK i ask the EY Swiss Company and i get this E-Mail.

If it is true then you have to give up the funds you have given them, while the Escrow they use does not recognize that Polybous is not one of their members, For the future be careful in investing

[Geenstijl]

Why people even invest in this dumb idea... just greed. Lol. When I see these guys on that picture on the conference... these guys are millionaires now. All thanks to some fancy graphics and simple mockups.

[bigcash2011]

I think it is rediculous to call it a scam. It is one big project. Its true every big project comes with haters..

[jayohby]

now they can run away with money and retire after another failed project.

[DaMut]

And hello kilo17.
It has been a while since our last time.
Do you still remember me ?
I am the one who's asking about a ring in diamond coin back then.
A year ago ,
I missed you.you know,
I thought that project was real because you're in that project.
Sigh looked back at that time made my heart pain,
What a shit project

[revenant2017]

I think it is rediculous to call it a scam. It is one big project. Its true every big project comes with haters..

Hate had nothing to do with it. It's their reputation.

The "Official" ICO thread, aka Scam Thread is over run with noob accounts trying to dilute the truth about the Team involved in this ICO

Please see the links below before investing and Google Search HashCoins Scam - They previously made VaporWare miners.

It is a scam? You don't say!!!

[Crypto Girl]

the accusation is very serious and it needs some evidences to be a proof of the accusation being made otherwise it will be called a DEFAMATION.
an accusation is just a mere accusation unless proven by some evidence.
it's serious and if it's true, we must walk away from that project but if it's not true, the thread needs to be lock or delete.

[bicork]

I think moderator should change the name of thread. Maybe, just maybe, we'll add a question mark?? You can't say something like this without evidence or proof.

I was planning to invest in this ICO as they have already collected 10MM. This thread made me to think again.

I will advice everyone to do his research cos many project had been called a scam and they are there in the market thriving. At a point Taas was also called a scam this very year. Do your duty and be sure

Hi,

first im not involved or invested in Polybius or Emercoin in any way, i just find that thread a few days ago and i found some really open and easy to see aspects that this is a new Scam-Giant from the devs of the proofen scam Hashcoins.

This is so extremly obv. that i was shocked after i see how many people do believe in this and put much money into it.

Also i see many fake accounts pushing that and try to give it a real feeling.

Here is everything i found so far.

So i want to use this thread for warning, discussion and proofs about the Polybius & Emercoin scam.
I just copy some qoutes and pls read this and check it for yourself.

https://www.cryptoninjas.net/2017/04/25/blockchain-startup-polybius-bank-setup-switzerland-ernst-young-agrees-advise/amp/

Is this True?

Is polybius Backed/advised by ernst&young?
If this is True- it cant be Scam! This is awsome. <3

I hope you're all aware that the Hashcoins crew are behind this ICO.

The same Hashcoins who stole 1000's off of forum members by selling mining hardware that doesn't exist.

Not a single item delivered.

Then they abandoned their thread:     https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=417623.msg19333790#msg19333790

The same Hashcoins are doing numerous ICO's on this forum.

Research & use due diligence before throwing your hard earned cash at these people. If you are comfortable giving your money to these proven scammers, go ahead.

Just a friendly FYI. Good luck.

Another quote:

just newbies reviews

Yup - shill accounts from the Hashcoins/Hashflare/Polybius/Emercoin/Chronobank "Team".

A quote from the Emercoin thread FYI:

No I am not a spokesman for Oleg, I'm a spokesman for logic and reason.

Right. So you think that it's logical & reasonable to advertise, promote, endorse, defend & link to a proven scam company like hashcoins on your website & your thread then.  Got it.

You have no proof to back your accusation of Polybius being a scam, otherwise you'd have presented it.

The proof is on their website, it presents itself.

https://polybius.io/#team

That polybius "Team" are the same hashcoins "Team" who scammed customers for 1000's selling vapourware. Guess who's also on that list - good old Oleg Khovayko Blockchain CTO, Emercoin. He crops up quite a lot actually, along with a few other recognisable Hashcoins/Hashflare/Chronobank/Emercoin/Polybius profiles. Of course, Emercoin & Polybius are also advertised by these Hashcoins scammers, & it's no surprise that Polybius advertise Emercoin & Hashcoins also - is that some back scratching or because it's the same people I wonder....

Let's break it down & make it easier for you, open the following web pages in different tabs:

https://www.hashcoins.com/management
https://hashflare.io/team/
https://polybius.io/#team
https://emercoin.com/team

Apart from the obvious similarities in the website layouts, the same profiles crop up over & over again on each site, proving that the same people are behind them. This is not "FUD" as you call it - it is fact & it is displayed on the websites for all to see.

Oh, and who's involved with all of them?  You guessed it - Emercoin dev Oleg Khovayko.  Don't even think about denying it - it's there for all to see.

Total USD: 19,527,830$
Participants: 17269

That's not an answer - just numbers.

Wait - WHAT!?

So those lying, cheating, thieving scumbags Hashcoins have reared their scammy heads again & are pushing another scam under a different name eh? WTF!!!!

Those motherf*ckers disappeared years ago with everyone's money - now they're back pushing another scam thinking everyone's forgotten about it?  NOT A CHANCE!

Look at all the noob shill accounts they're using to avoid using their real Hashcoins account, not to mention the BS numbers they keep posting - unf*ckingbelievable - what a joke those c*nts are.

ANYONE & EVERYONE - DO NOT GIVE HASHCOINS/POLYBIUS A SINGLE CENT, YOU WILL NEVER SEE IT AGAIN. GET YOUR MONEY BACK NOW BEFORE THEY RUN OFF WITH IT AGAIN.

I can assure you this is another Hashcoins scam - GET OUT NOW!!!

Frankly, I do not see the point of your warnings here. The necessary amount has already been collected - and you can not do anything and have no influence whatsoever ...

What? Every single second this is running forward more people lose more money. Thats extremly annoying that u easy can see whats going on, but you dont want to see.

An other point:

Here is very important document: http://www.fi.ee/public/hoiatusteated/20170606_Hoiatusteade_Polybius.pdf

Translation: https://translate.google.pl/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=pl&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.fi.ee%2Fpublic%2Fhoiatusteated%2F20170606_Hoiatusteade_Polybius.pdf&edit-text=

This shows that marketing is stronger then sober thinking.

A real banking project has to have real experience, with at least Payment Institution license with confirmations of that. Hope, soon, there will be a project that will bring a legal solution with full transparency. Not only marketing.

I will open a thread for this.

And here also the answer from my mailing with Ernest and Young:
(It's german)

"vielen Dank für Ihre Anfrage. Wie Sie schon zurecht in Erwägung gezogen haben, stimmt die von Ihnen beigefügte Nachricht nicht. EY  (Ernst & Young) stand und steht mit Polybius Cryptobank in keinerlei Geschäftsverhältnis. EY hat Polybius bereits aufgefordert, anderslautende Informationen von der Website des Unternehmens zu entfernen.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Dag-Stefan Rittmeister"

Just translating the German text to English:
"Thank you for your request. As you already thought the message you attached is wrong. EY  (Ernst & Young) does not and has never had a business relation with Polybius Cryptobank. EY already requested Polybius zo remove different informations from their website.

Best regards
Dag-Stefan Rittmeister"

Sure we can find more, but for me the fact that the same people from Hashcoin team are part of the Polybius team makes me scary enought that i wouldn't recommend to put money into Polybius!


EmerCoin is from the same organisation.








Here a list of users i believe that are involved or fake accounts to publish and move forward this scam organisation:

- FreakSeaker Makes a few posts about saying anything about Eth and Waves defs and just say Emercoin is great - makes no sense

- mzn brand new poster in polybius thread like a old known boy - just created to push the buisness and keep everything cool

- b080180d 62/62 posts about polybius and in polybius thread - repeat every post that say scam and try to push it away

What did you think?

Yes - it's a scam alright. One of many organised by the same group of people behind Hashcoins/Hashflare/Polybius/Emercoin/Chronobank etc, etc.

Yes - EY contacted the Polybius/Hashcoins scammers demanding that they remove their lies about EY being in partnership with them.

Busted.
