Why is everyone keeps getting scammed by something so obvious and repeatedly happened? If a big company like SpaceX really wants to hold an event like that, what should they do to prove people that they're real?
I just recently watched a documentary regarding the NASA and SpaceX and I didn't think that they will be using SpaceX too in a scam attempt 
.People are getting scammed because of 2 things:
1. They are newbies - they don't have any information or knowledge regarding scams.
2. They are ignorant - being ignorant can lead to a loss of your money too.
Scammers will always be there as long as there are investors who are ignorant or newbies. They don't need to prove themselves that they're real if they are launching an event like this because at first place they aren't doing things like this. For me, it would be better if they will just focus on what they are doing right now which is the plan of putting the 2 astronauts into the ISS.
Anyway, thanks for sharing this. I just hope that some investors will see this thread.
