Hello everyone,
I'm making this post to make everyone aware of an alt-coin that goes by TedChain as it is a scam, Several days ago it came to my attention that my Bitcointalk account had been compromised.
To my surprise the person who took-over the account is claiming to have a 'gaming platform' coin that goes by 'TedChain', I immediately reached out to the 'dev's and posted on their thread but was ignored.
I proceed by contacting them via Telegram to which they admitted that the account isn't theirs and claimed it was simply a "misunderstanding" but offered to buy it from me,
Seeing as they had decent community feedback i offered to sell it to them for $100 USD. For a company who claims to have a 'revolutionary' coin, They wasted my time and are now claiming to not have any money and that they're waiting to make money off the crowd-sale scheduled for July 17th.
Yesterday, "Marc" from TedChain reached out and asked me to 'authenticate' the account is mine by showing him proof which i did as you can see by the screenshots, After providing him the proof which included screenshot of my Skype ID as seen below he went through the account and attempted to erase or edit all my previous thread in an attempt to get rid of any proof.

Further proof was sent to him showing the dates of the same thread being made on my other account from another forum found below, As you can see once again he went through and modified the threads but i have included the cached version:

So not only did the owner of this scam-coin takeover my account but now they are attempting to scam the Bitcointalk community as its obvious this isn't a REAL company or dev team but rather a vietnamese ripper,
On July 17th they plan on launching a "crowdsale" to get as much money as possible, We can prevent this by RT'ing on Twitter and help spread awareness. As for the account i have already contact Cyrus and am in the process of recovery.
HELP STOP THIS SCAMMER!

I have a problem with this statement - I think everyone involved should be painted in red negative trust.
You claim to have your account hacked but then offer to sell it to the thief for $100.
