Nothing about this site is legit.

The domain on which the site is registered on is a .tk domain, which is obtained for free. This means that the scammer isn't even bothered to invest in an actual .com domain name, which costs money. Similarly, they're using gmail as their support email domain, which is unheard of in legitimate, professional projects. They also list major exchanges as their "possible future partners", which is obviously false.

Even though the accuracy of that fake member proof is unknown, I'd say that it's fairly likely the picture used is the same person that owns that FB profile. But plagiarism of their whitepaper is pretty much the solid proof here.

Says on their site that the ICO is delayed for 8 days for some reason. Perhaps they noticed this thread and are trying to cover things up?

Well done guys,

I haven't seen so far such a simple scam. Should bookmark this thread, this SCAM should be a guide for beginner scam investigators!
