So, if what you mean is people scam by the dev team; maybe you can add this too:
- abulaba token, bitcointalk forum ANN:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3348816.0 ;
- vaynix ATM, bitcointalk forum ANN:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3239397.0- etc
I think there're hundreds of scam ICO's that you can read their announcement in this forum.
Forum Admin, staff and moderators do not moderate the ANN ICO thread, because their position must be on the neutral side.
So forum users must be smart in choosing which ICO platform they must choose to invest or be promoted in social media.
There are just so many of the in the market now. And they all start with promises when they are on ICO, getting the gullible investors to buy into their fake talks and updates. The one that pains me most is all these softcap, hardcap news that people buy into. 95% of them are fake and manipulated. If a project on ICO really hit softcap or hardcap, I don't think that project has any reason not to give the Investors good profit on listing.
