Stop ICO cloning scams using Clearify

in #cryptocurrency6 years ago

Hello everyone,

within the last few months fraudulent websites multiplied and more people are loosing their money without even having a chance to participate in the real ICO. They are cloning the real ICO websites and provide false wallet addresses. We've also seen fake emails containing false ETH addresses sent to ICO participants.

Clearify is the new standard in ICO address verification.

If the ICO that you are interested in has not passed through the Clearify process yet, please contact them on social media and ask them to do it. If they refuse to do so, they are already rasing the first red flag. The cost for them in order to get this service is minimum. Around 500$ for an ICO means nothing.

This way you will never have to worry about sending your money to the proper ETH address.
I have been apart of the Clearpoll/Clearify Telegram group for a while and you will be amazed by how many ICO's were contacted and did not accept to get their address validated by the Clearpoll/Clearify team. Later on, most of them were hacked or proven to be a scam all together.

The Clearify service will not guarantee the good intentions of you ICO's team but it will validate that you sent your money to the proper ETH address and it will give you leverage in the case of any future fraud on your investment.

The minimum you can do for the safety of your investment is to call out your ICO team on social media and ask them to get their address Clearifyed. A very easy step to prevent money loss.

You can already check which ICO address are validated on https://www.icoalert.com/:

or use the Clearify browser extension
(you just need to paste the ICO's wallet address and, if nothing shows up, it means that they did not pass the verification process. If the address is good, you will see the name of the ICO you are participating to)

This is the best we have right now against ICO fraud and I expect you will do the minimum in order to protect your investment.

Everybody keep hodling and make safe investments !!!!!!
