thea day without a Scam
Online scams are a financial engineer Bobby white, blockchain expert David Chen and designer Gregory moss. However, the picture of the white really belongs quite real Alexander white, Professor of Tsinghua University in China. One Gregory moss really exists, but he only teaches philosophy at the Chinese University of Hong Kong and has nothing to do with Baccano.
In response to a formal request Coindesk both denied their participation in development.
Any use of my photos for such purposes (including the name «Bobby white») is a fraud.
Professor moss believes «very difficult» such a gesture on the part of the representatives of the BHB. The real identity of David Chan to install and failed.
In Addition to the obvious fake personalities, scammers also indicated a non-existent address and a fake phone field in contacts. The team is allegedly based in new York city on the street 22/121 Apple Street, but this place isn't even on the map.
