I want to warn the community of a recent experience I've had with a user named CasioK.

Our company has been seeking a bounty campaign manager. Casio joined our Slack two weeks ago and reached out to solicit his marketing services and help. We initially agreed to a total of .5 BTC for bounty campaign management and other marketing services. He was very proactive and responsive in selling his services. However, once payment was the experience was the complete opposite. He delivered none of the services he committed to and I had to continually track him down for updates. I demanded a refund and he stated he was repay us. But unfortunately this never occurred.  It’s been two weeks.  He even threatened that if I report this to the community that there is no chance we will get repaid.

This was the last of the funds our business had before our presale and so he put our foundation in a very compromising situation. We are a non-profit foundation whose mission is to help others so every dollar is critical for us. It's especially sad when people take advantage of others that are trying to do good for the world. Now we are out of funds to complete our marketing before our crowdsale.  Sad

I know that I’m at fault for being naive and trusting him.  However, in my research he appeared to be a trust worthy guy. Looking back, I wish I would have initiated an escrow.

I warn everyone to not deal with CasioK and encourage others that has had a negative experience with him to share your experiences. His profile and our chat transcripts are shared below.

FYI, he’s known to use multiple profiles and have a team associates so be careful. Be cautious of the following accounts as well:
- kkjack789
- Lixer
- Rizky Aditya

If anyone has info about CasioK, let's please reveal him to protect the rest of the community.

Any solid proofs that they're connected to this person ? Let me know if you can find one.

Sorry for your loss,you should have dealt with them using an escrow.Either way,if they're an alt of the connected account,I fairly have an idea who this Indian dude is and I think I can help your recover your money.Let me know if you have their telegram/email/what'sapp.

Edit : 1 -Confirmed the guy is an Indian  Scum. (I'm so excited to bust his ass)

Like I mentioned in other thread I pay people to make posts and they all are new and separate so I am myself unsure whom I am dealing with, plus asking questions and anything is nothing wrong.

@grant_hero not sure why you are creating issues when I already am in contact with you, this all just hurts more rather than anything else.

Being in contact with someone holds no weight when you are promising them to pay them back everyday and it doesn't happen. It's been nearly three weeks of false promises for a refund.  What else would you expect for anyone in this situation?  Until you pay us back and resolve this situation, I have no choice but to warn the community.

I'd rather lose money and the protect the community then have more people impacted.  This forum was built by a community that seeks to help each other.  Not to support people that are here to intentionally hurt others for their own benefit.

See, first of all you are free to do whatever you want. I have not done anything wrong and neither would I ever. I have paid him 0.1 sometime ago ( some days ) and I even promised him for the rest but he wanted to create thread. No problems I will still pay him.

But well @grant_hero if you want to track me and get paid, then ok do that ways as I see joel saying. Let me know Smiley

Thanks for your support Joel.  I suspect that they are linked because while he was trying to sell me his services, he said he would pump up our thread as an example and did it with these accounts:
- kkjack789
- Lixer
- Rizky Aditya

Unfortunately, I don't have any other information regarding Casio but I'm with you in trying to discover who he is order to help the community.

You haven't done anything wrong?  That's the problem with people like you.  Like a drug addict, there's no accountability.  You have continually lied about repayment and you want to play the victim here?  it's been three weeks with continuous lies.  And your last comment, "Let me know Smiley" demonstrates how arrogant you are.  I've already considered the money lost because I have no faith in your words.  

Should you happen to surprise us and repay the funds, I'll gladly retract all of the messages and negative trust.  As a non-profit, every dollar goes a long way for us because we don't make revenue like normal companies.  Additionally, every dollar can be used to help people that really need it in this world.  And as I noted to you, this was the last of our funds before our pre-sale so we have no money left.  You have really compromised me and our business.

I'm already on the verge of finding your full Doxx,Aditya Sharma.Once I find it,I'm going to take the matter ahead legally.Escrow.ms know how bad Indian cops are they know you have been stealing money and they're even harsh when it comes to Cryptos.

Please pay him his 0.50 back.

Honestly CasioK, you are the biggest piece of shit I've ever dealt with in my life. Don't you dare pull the victim here, you are far from being one. Grant Hero is running a ico to help people, then you take their trust and guess what you do with it? Steal 0.5 of that user. I'm already tracking down what other accounts you have to help pump icos. This is the reason why China had to come in. You are squashing all of the new icos, to benefit yourself, which is unethical and also a bannable offense here.

I hope Joel does find your details and takes legal action.

1) Don't hire random baboons to manage anything (stick to established managers such as Yahoo, Lutpin, Edward, maybe me (disclaimer: I tend to reject due to lack of time)).
2) Don't give random baboons any money, use escrow.
3) Following those two, consequently, it is unlikely for you to get scammed like this.

Anyways, tagged.

See, first of all you are free to do whatever you want. I have not done anything wrong and neither would I ever. I have paid him 0.1 sometime ago ( some days ) and I even promised him for the rest but he wanted to create thread. No problems I will still pay him.

Um okay  Embarrassed

We got him Smiley. Just a couple of questions for op, when he was managing a bounty for you, did he offer to do the Ann thread bumping thing? I'm trying to find the icos that have hired him and am trying to track down his accounts and get them banned for good.

Does this mean jail time if Joel can pull through?

I would not think that there will be any jail time unless Joel can provide sufficient evidence to support that 'this' certain individual is CasioK himself. Even if he does, I would have to say that the police will have to conclude this through their own investigation. All that Joel can do is bring awareness to the forum community and the police in India. (I may be wrong- please correct me if I am)



I would have to think that as a manager himself, honesty and transparency would be the highest priority his job. Some people just can't get it....  Sad

Moderator can not banning people because of this problem alone,
if they did it a lot of people will attacking the forum and the result will be questionable.
they are only banning people who is breaking the rule such as plagiarsm and else.
so,the only way that we can do is to give him a negative trust and then report it to the cops(if it's possible).

so what if the mod banned him ?
he will create another account and open up a thousand thread(for example) and it will affecting the forum overall.

Prepare a thread and a form to contact the police.
I will do that once I have adequate information on him,in India,they call it filing an NC [Non Cognizable offence -> Means police officer has no authority to arrest without warrant]. I can simply walk to the nearest Police station and file one.I'll definitely ask the OP to provide me in writing about the case and  definite proof.I will have to submit those two documents along with their forum information.Since I can pull some Cyber Crime contacts in the nearest branch,they will consider my NC on the priority basis.

 
Does this mean jail time if Joel can pull through?
Not sure about the Jail time but he's definitely going for a one night treatment so he can admit to the crime.Even if he comes out on a bail,his career would still be messed up considering he has a Case on him.I don't wish something bad for him but he should pay the OP back.

He did not scam but I was contacted by him

I was being given same thing some days ago as I have my own ico going on and he said he can keep my thread on first page all the time by making posts and i did not think he was right and asked him proofs that he can work and asked him to give me demo by showing some posts.

I asked him to show me that he can do work by giving him a thread and asked him to bump that thread and he made posts and the below accounts are linked to him

- coin@coin
- cryptovilnix
- fathamburger

and many more names he said he own those accounts
