Continuing the tradition of project with "NEO"in their name who turn out to be scams (See "NEO finance" at this link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4831804) here we have the following bounty: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5046494.0

There are many red flags to this project:

1. Whitepaper that is 7 pages long and very light on information
2. The team has no Linkedin profiles and you cannot find them anywhere
3. It uses the NEO name while having no connection to it whatsoever, instead it is an Ethereum project
4. Claims that it will fork the NEO blockchain to create an ETH token
5. The roadmap covers only the last quarter of 2018
6. The team description on the website switches between the first and third person.
7. The GIThub was created 8 days ago and has nothing on it, the Telegram group listed on the website does not exist, and the Twitter profile informs you upon first view that it is restricted because of suspicious behaviour.

I tried looking up the pictures of the team but was unable to find them anywhere. I would steer clear of this.

There are many red flags to this project:
In addition to your list:

8. Their homepage/whitepaper is full of plagiarized content (I'm going to list few of them "only"):
- Homepage (archived)
- whitepaper (archived)
  • "What is NEO Super?" part was taken from "here".
  • From "NEO Super Features" section: "Mining" part was taken from "here", "WEB Client" part was taken (partly) from "here" and "Smart contracts" part was taken from "here".

Ann thread and the owner (archived).

I've found the same resume on site which is little older than neo super:

https://callisto.network

Dates    357 days old
Created on 2017-10-18
Expires on 2019-10-18
Updated on 2018-04-27


So, our Super NEO team:



Callisto.network team:

Mr. John D. MartinMr. KappelMr. Labrecque


Mr. Akijiro Nakeseko has the same resume as...you won't believe it...Carlos Sampol.

1. NEO Super presented a lightweight first version of whitepaper, later an expanded whitepaper will be available with a detailed description.
2. After updating the web site, we will add links to the team profiles.
3. This is not true, we will use the NEO blockchain shapshot.
5. More will be available after the update.
6. We sent this claim to a copywriter.
7. Read carefully the information on website. Open source will be available on Github closer to the fork. Twitter account in the process of unlocking.

Perhaps your project is not a scam, but based on how you went around to present it, I would rather send my NEO to a random address than put it in your wallet.

Have you missed this post?

How is possible to copy/paste other peoples resume and not one single member of your team didn't notice this? You didn't check your website before launching ICO fork or something?

Regarding whitepaper, you didn't check your own whitepaper or something?

Copywriter has already been notified, he will fix everything soon.
Are they going to change:

a) Names of team members
b) Pictures of team members
c) Resume of team members

I am little confused with this.
Wait a second! Are you trying to say that you didn't notice that something is wrong with your team in announcement thread http://archive.is/dvuX6 ?  Cheesy

To be honest that is not only thing which confuses me.
Dafak does this mean:

Quote
NEO Super | Fork 2:1 of NEO
NEO Super used NEO blockchain snapshot.
NEO Super has such advantages as mining, lighting network.
NEO Super use the NEO blockchain snapshot to create a coin based on Ethereum platform.
Need keep NEO on your wallet. NEOX is ERC20 token.
Use NEO wallet. All NEO accounts converted to NEOX on Ethereum platform (ERC-20).

4. Claims that it will fork the NEO blockchain to create an ETH token


That's pretty much the clincher.
