Apart from those, their "whitepaper" is quite interesting (for the most part is blah blah blah but when you reach "solution" part, everything becomes clear):

Copy (archived):

ARFREYR’s solution allows customers to use their smartphones to see what each
item is going to look like. The user can then take photos and share with their friends
on social media. Not only does this help the customer make a decision based on their
friend's remarks, it's also a great way to create brand awareness across social
channels, which is invaluable in its own right.

Original (archived):

Converse's shoe sampler app allows customers to use their smartphones to see what each pair is going to look like. The user can then take photos and share with their friends on social media. Not only does this help the customer make a decision based on their friend's remarks, it's also a great way to create brand awareness across social channels, which is invaluable in its own right.

Take note:
- There are more plagiarized content/parts on their (fake) whitepaper.

so they did plagiarism. This is not ethical and is disgusting. and now that I realized that it created a lot of threads:

[ANN][ICO][BOUNTY][AIRDROP] ARFREYR - Enhancing your shopping experience with AR

[ANN][ICO]ARFREYR - Enhancing your shopping experience with AR

Also on their ann thread there are more plagarized content like this.

Copy : (archived):

Augmented Reality is an interactive experience of a real-world environment whereby the objects that reside in the real-world are "augmented" by computer-generated perceptual information.

Orginal: (archived):

Augmented Reality (AR) is an interactive experience of a real-world environment whereby the objects that reside in the real-world are "augmented" by computer-generated perceptual information , sometimes across multiple sensory modalities, including visual, auditory, haptic, somatosensory, and olfactory

Copy : (archived):

There is a wide selection of Augmented Reality tools readily available to help you create the next, improve sales, digital retail, navigation,gaming experience and even design, just to name a few verticals. Augmented Reality is currently used to help visualize objects that aren’t in the room and to create immersive brand experiences that engage consumers on another level.

If they dont have their own word they plagiarized their content from the other authors they will be a considered a scam project.

does not have team members

You can find team members in whitepaper, however I couldn't find any social media account or any other kind of info about team. It is basically picture, name only and some experience(i can't tell is it real or not  ).
Plagiarism is just another big red flag.
Oh, yeah, I almost forget, they have poll in their announcement topic so don't forget to vote

Hope you have gone through our web site throughly before asking is it legit? There is nothing wrong in asking if it is legit. There are lot of projects which are scams and think you are scammed by one of them. I request you to kindly do a through check before concluding. All social profile links are there on our website (https://www.arfreyr.com/#team). Not sure if you are trying to defame us for any monetary benefits by leveraging your account status on bitcoin talk

We are a business backed ICO, we have a running business from the past 3 years. Our company details along with its registration number are mentioned in the website. Our first AR based solution PinTrip is available for sale on the AppStore with great customer reviews (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/pintrip/id1313657959?ls=1&mt=8)

Coming to the point of plagiarism there are certain technical terms which are domain specific and their definitions cannot be altered, we believe that if we can explain something in the most layman terms possible then it induces we have a clear vision and understanding of our product. We also feel that plagiarism of around ~5-10% is acceptable in any research paper

We believe we have a great idea, we are the first pioneers trying to integrate and leverage AR for the entire supply chain right until order delivery and there is no project doing the same currently. Our main competitive advantages include that we are a business backed enterprise having prior experience building Augmented Reality based solutions

We would want you to go through our white paper once more and understand the business. In case it is still not clear we would be open for suggestions and views from everyone to elaborate our business model

Kindly go through our website (https://www.arfreyr.com) and make yourself comfortable before posting such threads
