I am supporting flag and negative trust feedback.
They did a lot of editing and copy/paste 'work' .
Often times they use b/w images to make them harder to find sources.

I forgot to mention that 10 minutes before they edited their own ann thread (which is now a blank page), i received a pm asking me to consider deleting/removing the scam accusations.

They said it was one of their developers who made a mistake, their project/website was still in beta and stuff like that. Here's the full message:

Dear morvillz7z,

This mail is both an appreciation and a polite request in light of one of your posts titled Topic: "E-buddykart - fake team members and plagiarized whitepaper!.

At the outset, we appreciate you for bringing into light the unintentional error. But now that we are correcting all the errors,  we would like to register our heartfelt request to kindly delete the thread. The error was committed by one of our remote developers who was unaware of the person's identity in photo assuming it to be a demo photograph.

The website is still in its beta version and the project ideation is still in the teething stage. Further, the IEO and airdrop programs are scheduled for a later period. We hope these reasons must justify our unintentional error.

Hoping that you will comply with our request at the earliest.

Regards

EbuddyKart Team

Classic and old excuse ... Nobody believes in that shit. Don't think it was unintentional with the time had gone through to do those edits and put up the pics up there. Would have understood the site being developed properly if they didn't had those pics up there.

Plus plagiarized white paper fuels up to another red flag. GJ morvilz7z

Supported the flag.

They unintentionally photoshopped some hair onto another image and said it was their team member? As well as accidentally plagiarized another white paper? With a bungle of this magnitude I'm having second thoughts about trusting them with my BTC.

Their website is also now down.

The excuses never change.

I don't understand why these projects would rush out their website when it was still in beta version, unless it wasn't actually that way to begin with.

Good catch.

Developers mistake! They are just making fools of themselves. After they have gone through major makeover, they blame it on the developer. Total lie! I hope this project will not see the light of the day and never come back on this forum. Or they will just create another crap project as they are busted early here? Really thanks to those users who have the patience to uncover potential scam projects by exposing these kind of fraudulent acts.

They only wasted time and money after they made a junk project to deceive many people and now they are caught by copying white papers and also fake teams that they edit themselves are really embarrassing for him.
I am happy to see scamer lifted and unable to launch his action.
