Most every NEW coin that is announced will be from a scam team so don't give them your money.
Non Scam coins with ID'd DEVs:
Darkcoin
Vericoin is reversing higher with some game changing POS developments in the pipeline.
Archcoin
Dogecoin
SuperNET
Invest accordingly
You can't just invest in a coin because the devs are known. Besides, people will just start faking IDs or their identities to gain trust then scam at a later date so being known really isn't going to stop scams. Personally I'd avoid all coins unless you actually believe in them for whatever reason.
