Not that I am a big fan of NFTs, IDOs, IEOSs ICOs… you name it, but this looks like a clear extortion attempt.
I would like @AntiDolos to come to this thread and tell us why they are asking for money in exchange for a higher review score. Failure to do so in a couple of day means I will leave them a negative rating and even create a support a flag against their profile.
Hello. We are happy to talk here.1. As we said at Antidolos.com, All reviews are free, and we don't charge for any project.
But if a project wants to use our non-free marketing campaigns, they are welcome to use our extra services.
https://antidolos.com/digital-marketing-services/This is nothing to be ashamed of
2. We shared the Backstage (BKS) private draft (5.5 score) with the founder and asked them for explanations. We wanted to hear their words before doing anything. After receiving the documents and explanations, we found some of them convincing and published the final version with a score of 6.1.
3. I ask you to do something.
Suppose all our words are nonsense. Read the review for yourself.
https://antidolos.com/backstage-bks-blockchain-is-a-high-potential-on-the-downslide/If these are false accusations, then why do Backstage founders are so worried?
We only expose the strengths and weaknesses of projects with evidence.
But the final decision is with the audience.
4. Please speak with proof and let the audience decide for themselves..
What happened: AntiDolos tried to extort me by publishing bullshit review of a project where I am Co-Founder and if I pay $1000 they would give us a much higher rating. In his review that is not public yet he made a lot of false accusations, from having fake team members to faking partnerships which is just not true. Article is not yet published on their website and we got preview version of it and I guess they wanted to wait and see whether we gonna give them $1000.
It's not that I don't trust your claims, but if you are going to post stuff like this about bitcointalk member than you better provide some proof of conversation and threats.
This can be posted as redacted screenshots from email, telegram or other services you used for conversation.
I would also like to hear AntiDolos side of story before making any decision here.

Well you can see the screenshot from Telegram, in which he asks for money to provide an 8+ review instead of 6.4 or whatever. I literally have the entire chat log saved with entire communications exchange in which I shared entire pitch deck with all the legal documentation about the company, Hacken audits on all tech and smart contracts, Legal opinions and all the documentation that goes to serious investors before they make a decision about investment so he can see that everything we do is more then real and true. Which I don't see the reason to post here, he can do it if he saved it, even though none of it is for public, but for investors at this stage.
Anyway it is clearly visible what he is doing and if anyone does the research on what we are and what we are doing as a company, pretty fast all his claims turn to baseless claims and open grounds for a lawsuit, if we thought that his false claims could harm our business, which we don't.
I posted this only so he doesn't do this to other people.
Based on their post they are here to expose scam ICO and NFT
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=2838673;sa=showPosts and you have become their target to backup and shill their platform for you to get their service yes there's extortion on this if they cannot prove that what they are posting is not true
This is bad business and unethical if they are propagating false information just to promote their service I support @Jerome Tash call to explain their side here, and prove they're right about publishing their reviews about your platform.

Yeah I see it, but that doesn't look like a threat or extortion scam to me.
We all know how most rating websites work, you pay more and you get higher rankings, nothing new about that.
Yes, but when OP declined or ignore the offer they published negative reviews of the project, will they publish that review if the project did get their service, they have a lot of projects that they've reviewed did they do the same, offering their service and when they declined they publish bad feedbacks.
They have a lot of explaining to do, or people will doubt their reviews if it's coming from extortion or if these projects really believe in their service.
publishing rating and reviews without getting any money. If you check our site, you will find that we introduced both fraud and high potential projects 100% real and free.
We have a non-free line: If a project want extra ads and marketing they can use our services, and we are NOT ashamed of it.
But in the end, we never change the facts for money.
Plz never trust anything until you check the fact and evidence.
I saw some of the older AntiDolos reviews and I suspected that he is a shitty and lazy scambuster (I even warned him few months ago that he has to provide some proof for his claims) but it looks like his main goal is not to protect ignorant investors but to actually profit from this by offering higher rating for money.

True, we all know how these rating sites work but in my eyes AntiDolos is even worse because he presented himself here as someone who exposes scams while it looks like that is secondary thing to them and instead they are just another shitty rating site like
ICObench that can't be trusted.
By the way, I found an interesting claim on their website. So much about being non profit media.
I am really looking forward to hear what he can say in his defense.

The extortion also came in form of fake review.
They're giving OP a preview of the draft they'll publish in case OP refused to pay. I peeked at their review page and see that there's no article yet about BKS, so I think the screenshot given by them --and from them, posted by OP here-- is indeed the draft.
Given its a false information which will be published if OP refuse to pay, I think that can be considered as an extortion and not how most --honest-- rating website works.

I second this. It's a common practice, but only if you know you can't get a higher score.
E.g. if someone would give Stake a 10/10 and me a 7/10 because I don't have a specific service or provider, then that's cool, I know I can't compete with Stake.
But if someone would intentionally give me 2/10 although we both know that I'm a 7/10, and then asking for more money to get me up, then I would complain.
Additionally, if the person had previous scam accusations then I would lean more on to the "ok I'm getting scammed here" side.
We've been publishing our opinion about projects with documents and evidences for more than 3 years. This is our opinion and we do not change it with or without money.
Finally, it is up to audience to put the pieces together and decide on an investment.
I looked at this site a bit, they are completely irrelevant, and the statistics on their site say so. Obviously, the business idea here is to charge for "good reviews" for new ICOs and NFTs.

@-CryptoViking- create a red flag on this profile, it will mark the account more visibly.
Thank you for posting what we already shared on the site. We've never claim anything and only share our comments and experiences to users
FOR FREE. Why are they so worried about our reviews if a bunch of nonsense?
Isn't better to allow the audience to read and decide by themselves?

I see that he did something similar in the past with the Ideaology project in this thread:
Is Ideaology.io scam or a great opportunity? [
archive]
First, he published a very negative review claiming that the project was too risky and worthless, with an amateur and inexperienced team.
However, after just under a month, he completely changed his story and deleted (or denied) almost all of his claims from the original review, ultimately giving the project a high 8.5/10 rating. Now, I don't know if the owners of the Ideaology project paid for a positive review, and that will be hard to prove unless they publicly admit it themselves, but realistically, what could cause such a drastic change of opinion in such a short time? If you're going to write reviews, at least try to be objective and free of personal biases so you don't have to contradict your own words.
Ideaology (IDEA) IEO, Risky but Profitable! (Updated Dec 22, 2020)
And, according to the date stated, that update was made only a week after Amar Kovacevic from Ideaology
publicly accused them of abuse and blackmail.
If they've been doing this for a long period of time and on many projects then they are just busted with OP's revelation, other projects should come here to support OP's allegations, scammers are willing to pay that amount if they are going to get more money from these reviews.
They are guilty of supporting scammers if positive reviews are being paid, they even fooled people by posting on their site that they do not receive payment, they deserve a negative tag and a flag.
