HOW TO REPORT TRON ICO SCAMS IN 3 STEPS. (Est. Time to complete 10 min.)
If you are reading this article you may be like hundreds of others who have been scammed by Tron (TRX) ICOs. Thousands of Tronix were scammed over a period of 8 months by an infamous Russian scam artist Anthony Kudaev of ReynaLimited and IseriCoin (REY, RET, IRC ico coins) But what can they do?!
How would you like to have the Better Business Bureau and Security and Exchange Commission notify the Tron Foundation you have been scammed on your behalf?
Recently Binance lost over $40m dollars and Justin Sun (Tron Foundation CEO) offered to replace the stolen BTC. Where does he stand on protecting his Tron Community against these scams?
For a coin to be listed on a Tron exchange they must provide a white paper, address, contact information etc. and receive approval from the Tron Foundation.
It’s not likely that if you were scammed by a Tron based ICO that you’ll get your TRX back, however it is our hope that maybe if enough people unite and ask for assistance Justin Sun and his team will get these scams on his network under control and take care of this community.
You may think this is detrimental to Tron, but we are protecting the community by asking for the Tron Foundation to take action!
