Nice job. Seems like the site has already been taken down by the host as well.

It's also nice to see that there are now vigilant people out there apart from of course, OP himself, that are looking out for these types of scams. In this case, it is the flipnpik team that has spotted this scam. Not only are they protecting themselves from identity theft, they are also savings tons of others from this scam ICO, since now it has been taken down before their ICO has even officially started.

Loanbyte is a P2P lending and investments platform with safety fund, especial verification system and cooperation with world-wide arbitrations.

This mission statement though should have sounded the warning bell already. It sounds exactly like all previous lending platform scams, like Bitconnect, Ethconnect, etc. Even if they had a legit team, there would be no way that their business model is legitimate and sustainable.
