Scammers will go after IEO soon

[bartusv]

I agree that scammers  always try to find the new ways how to scam people, but opening a new exchange is not an easy one and it takes time to become a respectable one. Why would investors believe to new exchanges ?
I do not think that they would have much success with that.

Very soon scammers will find ways to make IEO their new source of scamming innocent people ,newbies especially please be on watch out and thread carefully ,invest only in IEOs that are launched on popular exchanges
-----Scam ideas that might be possible from my thoughts
1) very soon scammers will start building new exchanges just to lure victims
2) And through these exchanges they will start promoting Fake IEO projects just to make investors invest there hard earned cash and bang they will disappeared in thin air.
Remember that huge money are made through IEO this days and hardcap are easily met so be on the watch out ,scammers will surely do there best.I believe IEO is a effect way of investment in 2019 and so far so good ,many IEOs already double up or even triple up there IEO price per token and its a very good sign .thanks

If IEO is a scam, its must be exchanger fault. Exchanger should make research first before launch IEO on their platform and i am believe big exchanger wont put their reputation in bad situation. So far, IEO success give profits to their early investor but i think its just a start

[futile-resistance]

They have started coming after IEO already with fake fake claim that they are the admin of a particular exchange and they can give you space to participate in the IEO since its pretty difficult for people to buy in, next thing before you know you have been scammed.  Lets be careful abd stay away from secret deals

That one is simple to detect, it is then the fault of an investors to fall into this trap, despite all the experience he or she must have add in the crypto world, even if the investors has not been a victim of scam before, but at least, he has read about their operations, so I see no reason why an investors should operate outside the coverage of a particular exchange, it is only greedy people that will fall prey.

If someone claim to be an admin of an exchange, what stops the investor from going further to verify directly from the exchange and also confirming if they are aware of such.

Wow awesome topic,  this is basically true,  IEO is the latest deal right now,  and it's truly obvious that scammers might find a way to join in the IEO stuff,  I could remember vividly when lending ico was also on board before scammers hijacked it

[altscaner]

It seems that the IEO problem has almost begun with many new launchpad popping up, but I think it's a little suspicious because it offers rewards for registering and doing kyc on their launch pad and some of them offer program referrals but the rewards are very unnatural

[EnormousCoin101]

Yes I believe that scammers will make use the IEO trend to lure the newbie investors but I think the community who has an advance knowledge on this space can help them if they report or notify newly investors to stay away from a project that conducting an IEO on unknown exchanges.

[absurde]

i only trust major exchanges which makes ioe, i don't trust small exchanges therefore i never invest any ico. But it's really hard to particcipate ioe at major exchanges.

[Chomsy]

Not very soon bro.. It's already happening. Exchanges that haven't gained their grounds in operations now go after IEO. Investors have to be really wise now.

[daporivera]

It's as expected that scammers will go after IEOs after they have made a fortune from ICO. be on the look out, because very soon they will go hard on exchanges. Also, they may go about creating fake exchanges as they did with ICOs. Only renowned exchanges should be trusted. Hopefully no one will fall a victim. Scammers are every where and are always thinking of new ways to keep making money.

[fosco333]

At least they will have to facing the exchange first. I believe secure exchange will requiring an advance identification KYC for IEO.
Therefore, the scammers identity will be exposed if they really scamming peoples. Intense research and due diligence must be done by exchange party.

It is difficult for scammers to exist in the world of Cryptocurrency because people are becoming smarter so their fraud will become more and more difficult. I think the IEO is a solution for these scammers to become unemployed because most of the ICO projects in the recent period are not of interest to people and they only mention IEO that makes many houses Private has confidence in this trend

people are getting smarter but fraudsters are also getting smarter, so in my opinion fraudsters will continue to be as difficult as anything that fraudsters will continue to have ways to commit fraud, so we must be very careful

That right. Look like IEO will be a new way to make a fast money pump and dump scheme. it will be exchanges fault if they let a scam projects letting them to IEO on their exchange and get a bad reputation after that.

[killat]

I think you make confusion between ICO and IEO. Scammers will never be accepted in an IEO as their project need to be validated by exchanges before IEO. And bad projects will never be approved by main Exchanges.

[edisystem]

I agreed, the successful of IEO will makes scammers go after IEO soon but i think it will not happen on big exchange like binance and huobi.

I'm sure they will selective when to choose an IEO that they will accept on their exchange but not sure on small exchange.

[Viper_Unleashed]

Binance launched its IEO platform Binance Launchpad. In January, BitTorrent (TRON) – initiated a token sale on Binance Launchpad and raised $7.2 million in less than 15 minutes, hitting the crowdsale hardcap.The second IEO on the cryptocurrency exchange’s platform, Fetch.AI, hit the hard cap of $6 million in just 22 seconds.Again we saw Celr and again within a span of few minutes the sale was over.But my question is how many people were being to buy ??These could be bought with BNB coin and thus we need to see its total manipulation and of course unfair.

Generally without KYC people are not allowed to participate in the IEO and that minimizes the number of scammers.But the main thing is that it is being having other effect for example good exchanges boost up the price of their own token and this is going to have a negative effect in the long run.Because generally in these case bots and exchanges do not allow people to participate and when listed in main exchange same phenomena PUMP and DUMP.Its better to stay away quite risky at present.

As if newbies can really participate in IEOs launched on popular exchanges.

1) very soon scammers will start building new exchanges just to lure victims
2) And through these exchanges they will start promoting Fake IEO projects just to make investors invest there hard earned cash and bang they will disappeared in thin air.

Possible but not as easy as it looks. They'll have to acquire some license before they launch and they'll be scrutinized in the process. They'll have to be really crazy to choose an exchange platform to scam people.

[Callanta787]

Scammers might actually find way to ruin IEO but I'm wondering how because it won't be that easy ,its not in the exchanges hand to safe us from those scammers ,its in the investors hand ,don't invest in IEO launched on not so popular exchanges

[scambust]

Scammers are going to have a hard time applying for a Initial Exchange Offering. They will be scrutinized more by the exchange owners because they have a reputation to protect.

[dentolas]

I agree that IEO must be apetizing for scammers that are getting short on ICO investors...
On your first point, have you seen the overwelming number of new exchanges ANNouncements that are showing up? Everyone after the same business, copying each other just because some exchanges had a good degree of success. From this scammy exchanges to scam IEO is just a small step...
scammer will always find new ways, so what is the real trick?
People need to stop searching for the "get rich quick" scheme and need to refrain their greed, so that they can learn and think... a lot of people are scammed because they are not carefull or interested enough and they just want dollar bills raining on them...
