Would-be investors in Telegram's multibillion-dollar initial coin offering (ICO) have quickly become a favorite  target for scammers.

CoinDesk has identified as many as nine more websites claiming to sell the Telegram token after previously reporting on another fake website, which claimed to be run by the "Telegram Foundation."

Most of the sites claim that the token pre-sale will end sometime this weekend, with the price listed near $1. Notably, the first bogus website identified by CoinDesk has since been taken down.

Telegram should probably post notices or warnings on how to identify these fake sites if they haven't already, first as a moral obligation and whatnot and second because it could scare away potential investors.
