Can you add more information that might lead to their identification? They don't seem to be professionals, and with a little tracking, we will find that their deposits have ended up on a KYC centralized platform.
Does anyone know the exact date the site was taken down, it may have occurred some time before OmegaStarScream's response

They probably used some centralized exchanges, but if I remember correctly they had other privacy coins on their website, so it's not that hard to mask transaction paths.

Payment up front is something we (Cro 2) insist on when running any sort of campaign or competition on forum. We don't work with companies that aren't serius and feel like few months worth of escrowed funds are necessary to show commitment and atrract good members.

I don't know how other campaign managers are doing their work, but if I was working as one I would be very strict and ask for that extra bit of security.
Than again, I would probably be a bad manager and mess something else in the process, because I suspect that anything can be a scam until proven differently
