Even if there is some connection between one or more of the devs and other coins that does not imply there is a scam associated to Cloak. I have been privileged to be on the private test team and I have yet to see a more dedicated team of developers, always working, tweaking, testing, innovating non-stop.

If you want to talk about real, obvious, plain sight scam look at DRK instamine - "Hey we just "accidentally" mine a huge number of coins right out of the gate...oooops!!!. Lets decrease the total coin count now, because its better that way.." yeah...
