I'm making this post to make everyone aware of an alt-coin that goes by TedChain as it is a scam, Several days ago it came to my attention that my Bitcointalk account had been compromised.
To my surprise the person who took-over the account is claiming to have a 'gaming platform' coin that goes by 'TedChain', I immediately reached out to the 'dev's and posted on their thread but was ignored.

I proceed by contacting them via Telegram to which they admitted that the account isn't theirs and claimed it was simply a "misunderstanding" but offered to buy it from me,
Seeing as they had decent community feedback i offered to sell it to them for $100 USD. For a company who claims to have a 'revolutionary' coin, They wasted my time and are now claiming to not have any money and that they're waiting to make money off the crowd-sale scheduled for July 17th.

Be_Happy had already made a scam topic about Hamporn but locked her thread and cannot unlock.




I was looking into Hamporn and TedChain due to account hacking accusations here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4741591.msg42836630#msg42836630





Looks like "Hamporn" is taking the data feed of dditscdn.com and NSFW !!! https://www.livesex.com NSFW !!!

Which is owned by Duodecad IT Services Luxembourg S.à r.l.
 dditscdn.com (Which owns liveJasmin.com and livesex.com)

Hamporn is only a Whitelabel owner.



So it is a hacked account with a "website in a box". (whitelabel porn site)  promoting a multimillion dollar ICO with a fake CEO from a fake business address.





https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4741591.msg42836630#msg42836630

The same hacked account is advertising both Tedchain and Hamporn

Hamporn ICO has fake profiles for their CEO

Thank you for bringing this topic again.

It seems like, as i've mentioned earlier, that Hamporn has plagiarized it's whitepaper. Here are just a couple of examples (as there even more):

The technical claims are interesting as well because the website Hamporn is just a whitelabel version of JasminLive.

So it is a clone website that anyone can set up that gets data from content owners Duodecad IT Services.
Hamporn gets paid an affiliate fee for bringing in customers for Duodecad IT Services.

Duodecad IT Services are unrelated to the ICO.

Hamporn are effectively just affiliate re-sellers.

Yup, that's about right.
I have to mention that Darkwin threatened me with red trust from administrators if another scam topic about Hamporn appear.

No admin, moderator or DT on this site would be involved with such a scam.
Scammers are great at threatening - eventually they realize the game is up.

[marlboroza]

What do you guys think, is this their CEO the same person as this one  https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidcheung87/ ?

Or this one:

Yeah, i figured that much, still it wasn't a pleasant experience.

I think it is the same guy, look at the forehead tiny hair, his left eye and overall face proportions match imo.
We should ask ICOEthics to run face comparison.

Yes - I think it is David Cheung

He is a Games Host/Design Assistant at Enigma Escape.
He is also a freelance artist and photographer so he has a lot of photos - it will be hard to find the exact one.

I checked Darkwins untrusted trust and found this:


Who in this post claims to be the owner or part of the team:




Are scammers scamming the scammers by launching a clone scam ICO before they can launch their scam ICO ?

[jimmychanga]

OP deserves merit for this, Looks like the scammer is deleting all his accounts lol Twitter, FB are gone.

[The Sceptical Chymist]

I look at phrases like "sex positive normalization" and think what the hell does that even mean?  I often wonder what kind of world we're living in right now.

Anyway, good catch as always xtraelv.  I don't know what's going on with these ICOs, but they all seem to think that they can just steal whatever they need from other whitepapers and that no one is doing their due diligence.  Makes me wonder how much money they're getting before they get exposed.  I'm sure some people will continue to search for the next bitcoin, but you'd have to be operating under some serious neurological deficits if you gave these idiots money.

Thank you man!

Some updated information regarding the scammer 'David Cheung' a/k/a DC, DavidCheung87 and his buddy Game Tiny - https://www.facebook.com/tedmorning.daydreak/
Since then UK Action Fraud has been contacted, I've also been made aware these individuals are on a visa so i may submit a report with the British consulate highlighting their online activities.

Link in that facebook account is pointing to >>this<< topic, and it seems to me that you sold your account for 100$, they didn't pay you and then you opened scam accusation against them claiming they stole account from you and it is not solid proof to report someone to fraud department. I will post something in your topic and then I will tag you for selling your account to scammers.

About this report, do you have solid proof that these guys are behind this scam? Perhaps their identity has been stolen, which is very common thing nowadays and you may cause huge trouble to innocent people with your reports.

Who else got a message from Darkwin?

Poor chink is delusional, Claims to have made $3m in funding; couldn't afford $100 to buy the account or any other aged BTCTalk account lol.

[Darkwin]

Come on guy, I had what I did. You are the Losers.

I have a new Senior Bitcointalk account.  I don't crazy to show the new account (and new ICO project) for you. And 100$, no no, i'm not crazy to give money to the bad guys like you, and i would rather give it to a stupid dog.

And now, you can say "Tedchain Scam... Scam... Scam" everywhere. I feel very very happy if you say that. Hahaha

New life for me  

Bye bye.

If you had what you said you did then show us the team members.

You can't - your team members are fake - your address is fake - so you do not have what you said that you had.

If you have a fake team and make false claims then your ICO is a SCAM - it is that simple.
