I liked and used cryptostocks.com when it started. It seemed like a cool idea and a possible way to make some extra BTC. However after seeing others and once myself get scammed from their "IPO's" i've decided to quit cryptostocks altogether. So I figured why not create a forum that lists all the scams that cryptostocks has hosted.
I"ll start...

The reason crypto stocks sucks is they have a weak vetting process that is easy to pass. If you have a website with a email that ends in  you@yourwebsite.com and 1 bitcoin they will list you. I was going to list with them until I seen this, I then went over to Havelock and see what it takes there, the process is WAY WAY more stringent. The things Havelock requires
1.Phone call
2.Business plan
3. Identification paper work AML/KYC
4. Forms
5. A prospectus form
6. They actually review all this stuff.

I am still waiting for the funds manger to review all my paper work to get me listed, he is a very nice gentleman ask questions that only someone with a legit business would know the answers.  I will not go into to much detail as I do not want con artist to be able to pre-plan and ruin it.

But from what I have seen all crypto stocks cares about is you pay your BTC and Havelock is looking for good businesses to get funded. The difference is night and day.
MPex I would not go near due to the behavior of the PR person, and 30BTC fee around $19k USD. I do not think you would ever recoup that from the use of the site from what I see.

CPTM (CryptoMine) looks like an other one. I guess they are still struggling with their utility provider. Must be some epic fight Smiley.

Yes CPTM looks like they run away with part of peoples money and or the miners if they ever had any.

To just mention a few scams,
an old one was PPT witch was/became a scam by proxy by investments in pirated40.
LTCFPGA, BGTRUST, DTALE, CMUC and the whole Firemine/Digimine/Mineco/Altswap mess is scams to mention some more recent ones.
