So I went through the github for Earths.  It's a fork of Waves.

https://github.com/wavesplatform/Waves
https://github.com/earthspay/Earths

Pretty much all the commits since they forked it, except 1, are just replacing any mention of "Wave" with "Earths".  Every variable, filename, directory, documentation etc.

There was one commit called "fix" that caught my eye:
https://github.com/earthspay/Earths/commit/4aaca912c9da5424b76499e8f957baec4e76c6fd



So the only real technical change they made to the project was in this file:
Code:
src/main/scala/com/earthspay/settings/Constants.scala

The original file looked like this:

Code:
package com.wavesplatform.settings

import com.wavesplatform.Version
import com.wavesplatform.utils.ScorexLogging

/**
  * System constants here.
  */
object Constants extends ScorexLogging {
  val ApplicationName = "waves"
  val AgentName       = s"Waves v${Version.VersionString}"

  val UnitsInWave = 100000000L
  val TotalWaves  = 100000000L
}


They deleted that file, and replaced it with this one (notice the change in TotalEarths goes way up):

Code:
 
package com.earthspay.settings

import com.earthspay.Version
import com.earthspay.utils.ScorexLogging

/**
  * System constants here.
  */
object Constants extends ScorexLogging {
  val ApplicationName = "earths"
  val AgentName       = s"Earths v${Version.VersionString}"

  val UnitsInEarth = 100000000L
  val TotalEarths  = 9223300000000000000L
}

Then they changed only the TotalEarths, deleting a few zeros:
Code:
 
package com.earthspay.settings

import com.earthspay.Version
import com.earthspay.utils.ScorexLogging

/**
  * System constants here.
  */
object Constants extends ScorexLogging {
  val ApplicationName = "earths"
  val AgentName       = s"Earths v${Version.VersionString}"

  val UnitsInEarth = 100000000L
  val TotalEarths  = 92233000000L
}


So it looks like the only thing they were interested in changing was TotalEarths.
My guess is that first they added too many zeroes and got an error, so they reduced it a bit with a new commit.  

I'm not familiar with the waves platform so I'll let someone else determine if this actually could be part of a scam.

OP, could you just let your users know what's up with the totalEarths please?  And let me know if I missed anything.
