I wouldn't go so far to say that any project Royse777 was associated with was doomed to fail myself. I think NotATether is correct in saying Royse should have exhibited a cooldown period. Jumping from 1 failure straight into another project and hiding multiple facts showed me that Royse was not to be trusted. No, they didn't scam and with escrows in place I don't think scamming was possible (unless an escrow was talked into scamming, which is Ludacris due to both being pretty stand-up guys in the community), but if money was collected it would have been collected under false pretenses. It just seemed to go from a boo-hoo I got scammed by this guy to moving into a new project smeared in lies and deception. With a cooler head, maybe they would have come to their senses and started fresh without the lied and deception, maybe not I don't know these days.
