Some scammers are, however, way more intricate. They know its quite easy to reveal a fake pic so they just hire people to pose as their CEOs, CFOs, and so forth. Rumor has it that certain scammers even pay homeless people to pretend theyre leading a disruptive startup to a bright and radiant future. This fraud is much harder to call out, but at least those guys help homeless people in some way, so heres your silver lining.
They are changing their methods because using ran down picture has been exposed but this people who agreed to be part of the team and paid to use their picture and talent, are guilty of connivance so they will also be persecuted for their action, even if they say that they are just hired by unknown developers.
