I appreciate your courageous action to expose these SCAM ICOs. You would have gone against big fishes in this forum who would try to scam thru fake ICOs. Good job!!! This will serve as a guide to us all to avoid getting scammed and lose money.

How exactly is Vantum an exit scam, when they raised no money and closed down the project? I think you need to learn the difference between a scam and a failed project.
"An exit scam is a fraudulent practice by unethical cryptocurrency promoters who vanish with investors’ money during or after an ICO." - Tell me how a project that raised no money can pull off an exit scam?

Well, but how we believe they have not raised money ? It's not easy to identify especially if they used third party API. During open scam accusation you were supporting team instead of stop bounty. Are they distribute bounty stake ? Let me know if they did. So I will mark it "fail". I will suggest you please discuss on main thread about this issue. They have not listed exchange and didn't pay bounty hunters, that's why I mark exit. However I have marked it failed. I will keep in eye on it.

For others to easily understand "LIVE", We can say that they are still actively/aggressively/continuing promoting their SCAM project despite of having reports that claims their scam activity.

According to current market conditions more than 95% ICO's are scam. Most of them have been introduced to grab some BTC funding to manipulate market. Along with this most of altcoins also lost their values nearly about 90%.

You do not have to be a recognized member to start up an ICO scam, anyone and everyone can set up their ICO project It just depends on how skilled you are to entice people to invest in the project,most people do not make as little as a dime in their project as they didn't do their homework properly Yeah it's true that most ICO projects are scam,but some Projects have also made some millionaires So just do your homework properly before investing in any project

I can notice by the name of these ICOs that they sound really fishy. It's not a good time to invest in a ICO right now since most of them are just plain money grabs.

Thread temporarily moved on Scam Accusation,
Can someone help from investigator to recheck all Live marked ICO ? Due to busy I am unable to update. If anyone have free time check the current conditions of Live marked ICO. They are still live or they already exit ? If they are not on good exchange and not listed CMC then mark it exit. If still live then mark it live. Post below your report then I will update OP.

It looks like Nettekcoin is still Live based on their announcement in their website that they are still launching their ICO. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FMCH6Eqq.jpg&t=665&c=j1JgsvREnl9bjA)
It seems like they have listened to your scam accusation as they also updated some of their team's profile with some pictures while they have remove other members part of the team (maybe they didn't have much time to create fake identities). ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FpysNpi6.jpg&t=665&c=hLh2WLDFtbFvhA) You should take note that the Harrison Lambert before in their team as CEO became Josh H. Lambert now.
They have also changed parts of their whitepaper that you pointed out as plagiarized and changed it. It seems like they have focused on changing things which was brought up from their scam accusation in order to avoid much damage for their scam. BeforeAfterEven though they have paraphrased the original text it is still counted as a plagiarized text, they have just changed some words and sentence structure but the plagiarized content is still there. Posted this on Nettekcoin's scam accusation thread, it looks like they are still live in terms of having a ICO pre-sale but I don't see them active anymore in the forum. The last post made by the user name nttkcoin was made in January 4. Their Telegram group though is still very active with 7,300+ members while have 160+ online members consistently.
