I am here to confuse people who still think that any new projects that entered crypto space with teams that are able to show their faces on videos and even attend good crypto seminars anywhere around the world have nothing to hide, and they think its real project and far from scam, well the biggest scams in crypto space are able to cater away with that huge money because many believes they are real, The ceo and teams coming out in publics to discuss about the projects doesn't erase the fact that they can scam you.

As many people said before, everything is possible in cryptocurrency but honestly speaking it is not only in cryptocurrency. In our world we could see something like this happened many times before, there is nothing called a guarantee in this world. Even a company with an existing product could do the same thing in the face of money, how could a project that only shows their face able to guarantee us anything.

There are different types of scam moves, some stay in the shadow to scam people, like ICO projects that steal people's identity and use them on their scam ICO websites, so its normal if people thinks that scammers can only hide, but now the scammer case is different, they come out in daybreaks and the sun won't burn them like vampires, the show their faces to make you see they are real and have no where to run, lol where the heck is regulation? these people needs to be deal with big time.

already there were a lot of such projects where developers and team members often appeared in public but then simply disappeared with the money. As long as the cryptocurrency space is not regulated by the authorities, it is very difficult to prevent such terrible things

Just invest to the projects that you are comfortable with. A team that shows their faces doesn't mean that they are serious or working, they can abandon the project anytime they desire. That's part of investing, the risk. It's the risk that we have to understand whenever we're investing to icos or ieos. If the real faces can have a chance to scam investors, well those fake ones really have the urge and desire to scam everyone.

No wonder some scammers are taking crypto investors for granted, they knew they can't be caught, that's why some exchanges are scamming even developers of their IEO funds, idax did same thing to few IEO projects since 2018 till now and they did nothing about it, crypto space is where criminals walk free, something must be done about this

No where seem safe in crypto world and this is what's holding crypto back, nothing are been done to those who scam people, they still leave them roaming about and once they exist scam they will build another project again to fool people once again, if these scammers are receiving jail terms they would have reduced alot

Would be a different story if regulations find its way into crypto space, scammers won't be able to roam free anymore, for now we need to protect ourselves from this wicked beings, i think the best way presently is to stop investing new project and choose old projects instead.

Unfortunately, no one is safe from fraud; there is always a risk. Very often scammers use visual tactics, because it is easier to attract investor confidence by dulling their vigilance. When choosing a project, you definitely need to be more careful and study all the information about both the team and the project itself.

I agree with this, as an investor we cannot say that our investments have no risks at all. In investing there is always a risk no matter how deep you research about the project you are investing. But as we do our own due diligence in picking up the best project we minimize the risk in investing thats why we have to.

Every investment has its risk and we cant easily avoid scammers. They always targeted those investors which is greedy who wanted an easy profit from their investment. Scammers know the weakness of investors.
These days there's a lot of project showing the real faces of the team, but they still scam their investors because of money. They promise a good project but once they got their hands in the money they will show their true intention.

Yes, I agree. although the developed introductions their product from their projects to the public in various cryptocurrency events, does not make them a trusted project. they are indeed a team but the product they created is sometimes just a fantasy and there were no plan to realized just trying to find a way to quickly get money.  
After the fundraising is over, they will abandon without any responsibility to the investor.

Well, you made a good point. The use of team photos is one of the easiest ways ignorant newbies get deceived by ruthless scammers. The team photos are not necessarily bad. It all depends on the team.. if most of the members prefer using team photo, it is their choice.
I think the preference for projects with team photos was partly responsible for the increase in scams or substandard projects using team photos.
If people begin to care more about projects whitepapers and Roadmaps contents rather than fancy pictures , bad projects will begin to find raising funds with cryptocurrency crowdfunding more difficult.

That's indeed if the real team can't be a good point to determine if that project will never be a scam. bitconnect is just a big example for that but remember about sometimes there will be a developer who try to change all of the agreements between the developer and investors which can be considered as a scam too.
Change the roadmap at the middle of the development progress is also considered as a scam too.
This is not appropriated act by the developer.

Real team doesn't mean if that will become a legit project but a project with a fully working product that already used by a lot of people and generate revenue to the developer will never make the project becomes a scam project.
We must be careful with the team right now.

The reason for some projects why they are not hiding their identities is first they are confident with their projects will become successful that’s why they invite people to fasten together and then eventually it end up to a disaster which will be consider scam. Come to think of it, why will you show your face if you know from the beginning you’re just deceiving people, of course you will easily identify and put in jail. Next is when other video projects are just used by the scammers, but the real video and project is real and you didn’t carefully notice that it is just a fraudulent one (many sites are doing that). So I guess the best thing that we can do is to stick to pioneer and establish projects which already collected many trust to the customers.

But with these things you can make an easy analyst to know more the background team behind the project. You will know their experience or their ability when they make a seminars. I'll be prefer to choose the project if they show their identity to public comparing to choose a project that the team behind the project is very closed to share what he has to many people.

Cryptosphere has been filled by many people who just make a profit for himself or another way to say was filled by scammer. So, we can't compare which is good and which is bad team/people. So as it will make many people confuse to store their money to invest, just a courage person who will gain much money although the risk that will be faced is very close to him.

Anyone in 2019 believing that showing pictures or see videos of people they are dealing with gives them a guarantee of not getting scammed should at this point wake up, even videos this days can be doctored or altered.
A good project has no relationship with picture or videos

In this kind of industry even showing their real faces or making a video is not 100% guarantee scammer always a scammer.
Dont be fooled for those project that have no real intention to make a real product always remember that theres no assurance in this world.

It's obvious that there are some kind of criminals that will do exit scam even though everyone has known their faces because they are criminals or if not is a shameless people after all. What we mean with knowing the team is not by knowing their faces but their background, imagine if the developers is a real harvard graduates and doing an exit scam that means he's sacrificing all the hardwork he has gone through for just few money but people who has no special background usually have nothing to lose even if they make an exit scam. It's always background that matters the most not the face, sometimes people are just misunderstanding about the concept of knowing the developers behind a project.

Real team and identity is important, but not to the point that we will based their face on the project. Attending in seminars and event is needed to gather more funds so eventually they will really appear personally. Being registered project, idea and plans should be consider. It's easy to show their face today and do drama later on how they will exit in the market.
