[WARNING] ats tokens scam

[sharedminers]

Hello,

It was brought to our attention that an increased number of users who did nothing wrong to justify a suspension have been market as so by our IP protection system.

We are extremely sorry for this and have decided to immediately correct this mistake.

Please bear with us for a couple days as we are in the process of changing the automated payment system that gave us all the failed errors.

Payments will begin to be processed starting tomorrow and are expected to be fully completed within a few more days.

Everyone that successfully completed our withdrawal form here http://authorship.com/withdraw/ will receive their tokens.

Thank you and once again, we are deeply sorry for the situation.

Sincerely,

Authorship.com Team

[Zmaku]

30 minutes a go they have transfered 2 000 000 tokens from one wallet (probably one that has tokens reserved for authors) to the wallet they have been making payments from.

I also received this email from authorship
This is a good sign. It shows that they take the community seriously. Let's wait and see.
But still this project allready has a dent in its reputation.

[Grim149x]

I'm very happy about their recent decision. I received both from investment and bounty. I hope you all receive your fair share.

[Daydream 61]

I am one of the many people that did not receive bounty reward. I have got an email that informs me that withdrawal request was received and will be processed within 2-3 days but nothing came to my wallet. I had 3385 tokens in total through referals, earned by posting on some local forums and I had signature here with bounty link.
So of course that I think that this ICO is a scam and I feel sorry for those people that invested some real money and ETH to this as I think that after all of this confusion and bad reputation that their money is lost.

this mail I also received 2 or 3 days ago. and nothing has come. so I will not be happy. only when the ATS come and I see it in my wallet . until then it is scam for me .

[almost09]

labelling me as a scammer or cheater over a worthless 235 ats token which i did not receive deserves a lawsuit.

[styca]

I got my coins, so I can't say it's a scam. What it certainly is though is a great example of how not to run an airdrop. This is causing huge damage to their reputation within this community, which is surely the exact opposite of what they intended. They seem to have back-tracked and are sending out coins again, but it may be too late. A lot of damage has already been done.

I didn't think they would leave it how it was, especially with the volume of people complaining. If anyone wants to sell their tokens, i'll buy them cheap if you think it's a scam

[rafalski]

is it scam??

do math:

how much IN transfers on their contract address by real INVESTORS?

answer: 142 000 $ in eth

how much bounty tokens to giveaway?

answer 1 milion * 0,15$ = 150 000 $

do you need more?

everyone can count it, please do it and tell me your numbers

[Marvell1]

I've already received my airdrop tokens.
I suppose that thread with name like this should influence on the confidence of ATS token holders not in a good way at all. This is not true that ATS is a SCAM. You should not make loud claims like this.

[rafalski]

I am not claiming it is SCAM!

I'm showing you numbers!

Keep it hush, hush, eh? Be silent, you could harm a scammer... sure, I get it.

So far they have changed course more times than I can count.

They distributed tokens to their investors and 'some' bounty participants.
But the numbers I posted earlier in this thread show clearly they dumped the majority of the bounty participants based on bogus 'rules'.
They outright LIED about the distribution rules and made questionable claims about the value of the tokens.

Also many other aspects of their company (previous endeavors, companies they are still involved in, inconsistency of their claims re investments, terrible communication, etc....) - after looking a bit closer into them than we did before, ahem - raise a lot of red flags, not just for the messed up bounty program.

In different words: so far they have behaved like an exceptional mix of a scam and a technologically incompetent screw-up.

And it is VERY necessary to say and repeat these facts LOUD, and even LOUDER - until companies like Authorship either behave or vanish.

Silence is the friend of the scammers.

[Anduin]

I haven't received mine yet.

Let's see if they keep their words this time.

The people saying to be quiet likely have their ATS and are praying that they can keep things hush long enough to offload their scam tokens

That's the other site he's involved with. Email them, ask them questions.

Give this idiot grief. Send a message and send it many times.

i wrote seriousreading yesterday a email and ask for their relationship and this is the answer from today:

Yes and no. We are a complete separate entity from Authorship. However, owner of Serious Reading, I believe, is an investor and CEO of Authorship.
