There is a difference between somebody deliberately promoting something they believe to be a scam and somebody who promotes the same thing but does not believe it is a scam.

I'm not convinced that Vispillo thinks he is advertising a "scam".. I think he thinks he is advertising a somewhat useful exchange that also happens to have some very stupid "investments" and gimmicks associated with it..
I don't think he is maliciously trying to get people scammed..

I also agree that from his posts that here is no evidence he is trying to get anybody scammed but he should be very careful about the words he uses when he expresses his opinions because he called it a scam and he called it a pyramid scheme. Further implying that victims should either not invest or should invest but sell up/get out before the scam implodes and allowing other victims to carry the can - again is not a good thing.

Like I mentioned to you a while ago, YOU are the expert scambuster here.. Is it a "scam" or not?
All tags or no tags IMO..

You give me more credit than I deserve Grin

I have been fairly inactive investigating scams for some time now and am no expert scam-buster but I do have an opinion. In my opinion Yobit is a scam but I will not tag all users showing the Yobit banner simply because there are people in this forum that display the Yobit banner believing it is not a scam. I will tag every single participant of any project that I become aware of that claims they knowingly are promoting a scam.

I don't know if it's a "scam".. I know I don't like them because Yobit is a spam financier..
It's just as scammy to me as it was years ago and yet here they still are..

If ya'll pro scambusters think they are a scam then GOOD..
Get TF rid of them to where they won't come back already, and stop their spaming and all this drama over them..

a well-known scam. We are not talking about something that is allegedly a scam.. Undecided

It looks like Lauda is quite confident that it's a scam..
Gotta admit that Lauda has some balls..

If Yobit is banned from the forum then I will tag every and any user showing the banner after the ban is enforced but any user displaying the banner would probably get banned quick-time anyway.
