Like I am surprised ? It is not like ICObench was ever there for the community, and it is totally a money making venture without them bothering about the community in anyway. The earlier people started realizing this is a money making venture than trying to count on it in making good investment decision, the better.
I do not know why such a huge amount is going to be charged but it is what it is. Some are paying for it, and they are simply trying to render a service anyway.
