Hi,

I'm new to this forum and I really love the idea of your project but my experience in investing tells me that something isn't right here. I would be really grateful if you could straighten out a few issues for me.

1. I'm really bothered by the lack of information about who is behind this project. The only info I've been able to find is about 'Octavian Batca' is from your own press releases. There are no details about who you are, where you are from, previous experience or anything to give the verification that should be expected for a project of this size and potential. Have you been involved in any other forums or projects that ICO investors can refer to?

2. You refer to this project being privately funded but there is no transparency about who has invested or how much, how long this project has been up and running etc. If you had any sort of venture capital or private equity funding then I'm sure you could mention names.

3. Your domain name footballcoin.io expires in December 2017 and has no contact information at all. Would you agree that it is slightly suspicious that a domain name for a project of this scale hasn't been renewed for more than 7 months after an ICO? Also, privacy is your right but it's not like you're selling stuff on ebay here. You are asking strangers to invest in your project.

4. Your company, CrownGem Ltd, is based in an offshore location which is known for its secrecy. I appreciate the tax advantages this offers but it doesn't do anything for investors who want to know who they are dealing with.

5. The only information you've provided to offer legitimacy is a link on the website of omnisport.tv but this doesn't prove anything other than the fact that you've subscribed to one of their products. OmniSport won't be refunding anyone's money if this ICO is a scam.

6. In the UK, the Premier League already have their own branded fantasy league which is very successful. They make a lot money from sponsorship via Barclays, EA Sports and other large companies. Why would they risk this by licensing someone else to create a better product?


In conclusion, a sceptic might think that this is just a very well organised scam. You could have set up a really nice website, put together a business plan for an idea which is actually really good, paid for a subscription to OmniSport and got your logo on their website, and made a bunch of claims which can't really be proven until the start of the 2017/18 football season.

Yes you have a platform but it hasn't been tested at any kind of scale yet and won't be until you have already taken in millions of dollars via your ICO and selling the in-game assets.

I hope you appreciate that I'm asking legitimate questions and not just trying to cause trouble for you.

Your best response would be to tear my argument to pieces by supplying further information about who is behind this project as well as proof of your agreements with different leagues, image rights holders etc.

I'm genuinely looking forward to your response to the above points and look forward to being able to invest.

RP.
