I few months back i took part in an ICO bounty e-chat (https://investors.echat.io) as time went on things started becoming more and more shady as deadlines where being delays multiple times and it was when people discovered a "team member" they had on their website was contacted and was stunned to know he was on their site. After contacting the man himself and confirming his identity was being wrongly used i decided to act before it was too late. I posted in all the e-chat telegram support groups a link to redirect them to their website but only after their ip and information was captured. Making an interesting discovery that the "Hong Kong" based ICO was actually run by a group in Russia. I discovered the e-chat support lived in Samara, Russia (ip:128.71.199.150) and the bounty manager was based in Volgograd, Russia (ip:81.167.153). To my pleasure i decided to play with them a little while before letting everyone in the group know the people behind the scam. Fortunately i had not invested my own money but if i did i was offered a very rare refund in the hope i wouldn't expose them. Hopefully any of you who may feel your being scammed i urge you to be safe than sorry and start building a case to cover yourself. i used grabify.link and would recommend it if you wish to do the same. Hope you enjoyed my story and keep safe
