Hello @HowdooScam,
As you have chosen to raise this issue perhaps we could provide a comment on your post and offer an update on our position to all those who are interested.
Firstly, the post is bordering on being defamatory in nature. We could question its validity as if this was a legitimate case the person who wrote this post would have already been aware that we CONTINUALLY communicate via our Telegram group channel and do not refrain from vocalising the mass bounty fraud that we encountered. We also state in our channel the lengths we are going to, in order to make sure all compliant enteries are paid.
With regards your comment about the Bounty Channel, we gave 7 days notice of the closure and informed all participants to move over to our main channel where members of the Howdoo team have made it very clear what our intentions are. We have taken a number of messages offline and both David and Mark (who you have labelled as scammers) have dealt with them directly. All those who have reached out to us have been happy with the level of communication.
Sadly, due to the horrendous headache the bounty caused us we will be reviewing the whole process and inviting the participants to fill out a new form. We will then review and all compliant entries will be sent an email asking them to go through KYC. The result will be that we only have to pay out legitimate entries.
We are truly disappointed by the way things have turned out, however we remain fully committed to ensuring genuine participants are rewarded for their efforts. On this note we wish to thank those - publicly, for their continued support as we work to address this very difficult situation.
In conclusion we must say that we are surprised by the username of this thread. It seems to have been set up very recently and if we have had your original bitcointalk ID we could have addressed your concerns directly. Therefore, we strongly urge the writer of this post to be transparent by stating their bounty ID and this will help us to review their specific entries.
Thank you for allowing us to clarify our position.
Management Team
