[LIST] ANN threads that are using bumping services

[Stalker22]

 As I said, it looks like them but I can't be 100 sure that they are behind Upwork bumping but in the end it doesn't matter much who exactly is doing that.

Exactly. It doesn't matter who does this, but it is important to identify and publicly denounce those projects. This is not marketing, but a scammy behavior, and no serious project is going to act like that.
It's just as bad as plagiarizing a white paper or having a fake project team. It's really good that you keep this topic up to date.

Another thread has been added to the list, making it 92nd.

[ANN] UBERSTATE — a leader in banking as a service for crypto currency!
https://archive.fo/VNBSY

Group of accounts that are working on two previously added announcement threads (Rubic and Totem) is active in Uberstate as well. Despite my warnings  in their thread, explaining them that the same service they hired promoted numerous scams and it won't bring them attention they aimed for, they decided to keep going with the thread bumping, therefore putting themselves on this list.

[Theones]

I wonder. Projects at the top of the list were given red trust and even red flags. However, it seems that for several months no one has paid attention to the projects that are added here. Does this mean that this form of marketing is starting to become acceptable?  Apart from spam, of course.

[ANN] UBERSTATE — a leader in banking as a service for crypto currency!

Just wanted to post this ANN topic here, but you have outstripped me

Funny so see how lazy this bumbing service is. They use same account posting sequence as in Totem. tiogallluli > maurearejumb > doubmiytiri > Akoan > leshogesan > Ronald22lubukuali ( easy to be noticed on Totem page 3 and UBERSTATE page 1). Bumper probably has a excel document with login/password and just re-login by the list.

Strange that they have chosen tactics of just asking questions and OP is not answering them (must be lazy also).

I generally avoid giving negative tags unless I can find something else suspicious about some of those projects that are on the list (and if you check there are quite a few of those that I tagged&flagged for other stuff) but it's up to the each member here to make that decision. Best would be to simply nuke the threads that consist solely of shill posts and that don't have any regular members active, but unfortunately my reports stayed unhandled so I guess forum staff doesn't agree with that.

Hah yeah, I wonder how much are they paying for such a shitty job these shillers are doing.

On the contrary, I see that behaviour quite often, OP starting the thread and then abandoning while shills are doing their work for weeks without a single answer.

I haven't updated my branch for a long time ... and since you update yours regularly, you should add the missing data. And I want to ask you to add "Proof" to the main line, (so that anyone can refer to proofs).

I haven't updated my branch for a long time ... and since you update yours regularly, you should add the missing data.

When I started making this list I've decided to include only those announcement threads that were active at the moment of discovery, and not those that were once active. Since I see that threads you mentioned are not active for quite some time (and Amepay is already on the list)  I won't add them. Thing is, there are so many threads that once hired bumping service that if I started adding them retroactively list would be at least 4x longer than it is now.

And I want to ask you to add "Proof" to the main line, (so that anyone can refer to proofs).

Thanks for reminder, that's something I though about adding and will do eventually.


One more ANN thread added to the list, making it 94th.

[ANN][IEO]Axentro - An original, proof of work Blockchain for decentralised Apps

As always, I checked Axentro to see if I can find some dirt, but seems to me like it checks out, at least at those basic things like team&whitepaper. Nevertheless, for some reason they decided to hire shillers, and same accounts that are shilling their ANN is doing the same thing for another name on the list, Baex.

[bakasabo]

Hello Rikafip !

I've found another representative for your list. Everyone please welcome [ANN] 🌳🌳🌳Moss.earth - The world's largest environmental platform.

We see usual picture there - chat among newbie accounts. All of them have close registration date. If you check their posting history, all they do is to post in MOSS.earth topic and use its weblink or name in posts in other topics.

Some of the topic posters were spotter posting on Reapchain (Nr.60 in your list), so there is no doubt bumping service is used by Moss.earth.

[Rikafip]

Hello Rikafip !

I've found another representative for your list. Everyone please welcome [ANN] 🌳🌳🌳Moss.earth - The world's largest environmental platform.

Yep, no doubt what's going on here, they indeed hired bumping service. They are doing it on the light schedule though, probably bought one of the smallest "packages". Anyway, Moss.earth has been added on the list.

Some of the topic posters were spotter posting on Reapchain (Nr.60 in your list), so there is no doubt bumping service is used by Moss.earth.

Not just Reapchain, they have been active in at least two more on the list; BambooDefi and AAX. That's of course not a coincidence.

Hey Rikofip,

Another bumping service client. Everyone welcome CCM Cryptocurrency Market 'Defi'. To bad CCM selected lazy bumbers. All of the bumbing accounts are registered almost on same day, January 23-24, 2018. As usually, all newbies post in same topics. Most of the account name looks random, but Negovora_Alexandr, that post in same topics, looks close to a real person. With enough effort, I think it is possible to find the patient zero aka admin of that service.

Straight out of oven - [ANN] Beatbind - HELPS CREATE THE MOST MEMORABLE MUSIC EVENTS ON EARTH!. Topic created recently, self moderated and newbies, that post in same topic already started to fill it with "valuable" content.

[LordShanken]

Hi,

It looks like business is booming as I found another ANN thread that probably also started using bumping service:
- [ANN] WorldToken — a unique platform that combines the best tokenomics of curren - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5312779.0

I wonder how they persuade customers to check it and even pay for it, because I don't think so many project owners know that they are ordering "cheating service".

[LordShanken]

Hi,

One more thread with bumping service. This time they post longer text than one line as usually, but 90% thats are Brand New accounts created only to post in that thread:

CENTUS is a new stablecoin on the Stellar blockchain - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5314951.0

[Rikafip]

CCM Cryptocurrency Market 'Defi'
[ANN] Beatbind - HELPS CREATE THE MOST MEMORABLE MUSIC EVENTS ON EARTH!

Obvious case of thread shilling, both threads have been added to the list. Thanks for reporting!

[ANN] WorldToken — a unique platform that combines the best tokenomics of curren[/b] - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5312779.0
I wonder how they persuade customers to check it and even pay for it, because I don't think so many project owners know that they are ordering "cheating service".

They probably told them that everyone is doing that and that there is nothing wrong with it, and majority of those that hire them have no clue about bitcointalk and that same service is ready to promote an obvious scam. By the way, I've added  both of those threads that you mentioned, but also don't forget to report them spam when you see it.

[keyscore44]

One more thread that can be added to the list of projects with poor marketing:

Beatbind - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5313929.0

However this time, lazy spammers even plagiarized two posts (just two I found). I reported plagiarism in the Reputation section:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5316374.0

[Rikafip]

One more thread that can be added to the list of projects with poor marketing:

Beatbind - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5313929.0

Yep, they definitely hired one of those "marketing agencies" to spam their thread nad fake the interest. Same accounts that are active in Beatbind are also working on another project on this list, Axentro so I am adding them to the list.

From what I could see, Beatbind is one of those projects that have no real use for crypto, but they probably hope that by introducing blockchain they will get some interest. At least team looks real and whitepaper not plagiarized, so there's that. IN other words, just another shitcoin that should be avoided.

Several accounts are actively involved in these threads. It's not hard to guess that this is part of a small bumping farm.

Yep, all those accounts mentioned are indeed part of the bumping farm working on all those four threads that  you mentioned (Aladdin Exchange, SOCIETATIS, CRP and Chaingateway) so they have been added on the list. I can't believe that this thing is still going on, how clueless those that are hiring these guys must be if they keep hiring them? As someone said earlier, scammers scamming other scammers.

Regarding those four accounts, they have another thing in common, and that's the source of their merit, now banned account kpcian. So, we have here four accounts that are working on the same threads and all of them got their only merit from a single account, that is banned now. A bit too much coindence for my taste, banned kpcian probably operates on the forum, now via his alts. Or he sold the merit to those sock puppet accounts.

[DaveF]

As someone said earlier, scammers scamming other scammers.

Yeah, I said that.

I just saw this thread pop up and hour ago and spent a bunch of time looking at those threads.

Pretty horrible. Not to be an "English speaking elitist" but come on at least try a little bit. Makes you wonder, are they just paying the actual people that are doing the bumping that little and the people running the service are taking the money or is just that this quality is all that is out there.

Ah yes, thank you

Makes you wonder, are they just paying the actual people that are doing the bumping that little and the people running the service are taking the money or is just that this quality is all that is out there.

At first I thought that this service must be dirt cheap considering the quality (better to say lack of quality) of the job done, but then I checked on the fiverr where they massively promote this, and it ain't cheap at all. Just look at this add, where seller lies about bitcointalk having 60 million users, can't write a single proper sentence, yet he charges 21 posts €26.34 and despite all that projects hire him. Imagine how incompetent team has to be in order to hire someone like him?

If your announcement thread isn't on the top page. It has gone to the bottom pages.


There are 60 MILLION users Who can"t see your ann thread because of that. Did you understand?.

your page doesn't get any views. All your effort and money went in vain. All the views are getting your competitors. It shouldn't be like this.RIGHT?


Why do you need bitcointalk comments?


After publishing bitcointalk thread, it usually disappears from users view because of less engagement.


Therefore, I will keep up your thread to generate more views. I will make sure that your annthread will be on the topper page of bitcointalk


you can get an ABUNDANT amount of visitors and investors if you're on the topper pages.


I can help you to be on the TOPPER PAGE!!! ORGANICALLY by commenting on your thread. This will increase engagement and bump up your thread.

I have huge knowledge and extensive experience in crypto and its promotion system and I have 200+ bitcointalk accounts.

If you want to have the benefit of your ann thread..."CONTACT ME as soon as possible"


Best regards

Lol, 60 million users ... I decided to look through the reviews left to him, but the screenshots are so vague that I could not identify his nickname and the threads in which he was publishing (except for FXBK). In case someone has good eyesight, [https://imgur.com/pjomUTc, https://imgur.com/7jMQvy9]
