If you haven't checked this board lately, noobs are being exposed on a daily basis, so many of them thought. To answer your question directly,
I don't think this kind of copy/pasting and fake teams make any money out of it, which doesn't necessarily mean they won't if they don't get caught, simply trying their luck.
The ones who profit a lot are masternode scams:
I'm not surprised to see these morons get fake identities on their shitty website. Even though it's pointless as they have already sold pre-mined coins.
That's the beauty of it, the masternode scams, it's easy to setup up and you don't need much time, i would say less than 3 weeks to sell a few masternodes worth 2-10 BTC. AND BE GONE lol
Compared to regular scam ICOs, it's much more profitable, getting idiots on self-moderated discord channels to buy these masternodes ain't no problem for them.
One thing that helps is DT giving them neg trust. marlboroza and suchmoon deserve a lot of credit because they are most active in helping us

bring these clowns down. What happens after they get tagged is either they delete their Ann or bounty, which also prevents hundreds of spam/shitposts being made.
