I apologize for making two consecutive posts but this is a serious issue. I recently send 2 ETH to the coindash ico that turned out to be fake. After sending the tokens, here is the email I received.
We are talking about an insane amount being stolen. Or so the coindash team claims. You can notice how they even troll on the page. 43,000 ETHER and counting!

Do not take part in the Coindash ico until a further update and explanation from the Coindash team.
update:
A ico that turned out to be a scam? No way!
When stupid investors invest in stupid made up projects, there will be blood on the streets. There is a reason you need a product to raise money. There is a reason traditional startup investing is reserved for high net worth individuals.
Icos along with other crypto projects will find its natural place. We still haven't seen one ico that has proven success yet..

Now people are running back initial coin offerings and most of them taking this an advantage to fill their pockets and to loot public money. In-depth analysis is required before investing. People should know who are the promoters and their back ground and reputation.

Yeah. Similarly what was Tezos? It may be legit or not but how can people invest into an ICO with no cap & in a company full of strangers with no name credibility? Then it hits the news as the biggest ICO ever, obviously if there isn't any cap people will keep pouring in. That's fishy and shows they don't have any concrete plans neither there is any accounting/budgeting team which could calculate the cost as they progress into different cycles of their project. It's like Husband and Wife opening a donation shop for their own team. I would be happy if I am wrong but time would prove that.
Yes, immense research is required before putting your hard earned money. Everyone should be made aware of that there is nothing called as "Get rich quick" thing. You have to be smart and invest wisely.

I'd say this headline is misleading.
Scam? No. Based on everything leading up to it, it's been a legit project - which as they gave notification of, GOT HACKED.
Unless evidence can be provided otherwise, I'd say your choice of presenting this as a scam is irresponsible sensationalism.

Stay away from all ICO in general. More then 90% of them are scam and there been so many cases when people lost their money. Unfortunatly when you invest in this ICO's all you do is help their "developers" to buy a new house in a luxury place!

1 btc investment in the ethereum pre sale is worth 250k$ now. everyone thinks investing in icos is sure way to riches. they dont realize etc 50x increase this year all happened after it was available for purchase on exchanges. i rather wait for the projects to deliver than put money in a ico. i dont care what the team is and how much buzz they create.

Anytime there's a sale or presale it's a red flag. Hype for limited time events is just something used to manipulate otherwise-intelligent individuals into making stupid decisions. Kinda like Black Friday seasons beatings.

Gutted for the people who lost money in this scam. I had a similar on a site where you but cryptocurrencies as a direct bank transfer. Somewhere in the trade my wallet address got swapped with a spammers. I was lucky enough the company was very quick on the case and I received an extra 10% ETH on my order. God knows how this mess will pan out?!?

Thats terrible i have upvoted in the hope you get a little of your money back, i have never invested in an ICO but have seen several and have been tempted but managed to resist, i saw on another post that rather than invest in an ICO it is sometimes best to wait till the coin involved enters the trading markets and then as it falls in value buy it then, as i'm relatively new to crypto does anyone know of any ICO investments that are or have been successful as its a new thing im seeing constantly and something i will probably avoid.

Great post. There was quite a bit of talk of this ICO being a scam which made me stay well away even though I like the project idea. This could well be a fake hack so have even less accountability for the money they will pocket from this. A very sad day if no proof of it being a real hack can be adequately provided.
