Scam Scheme – Step-by-Step Actions
A simple flowchart illustrating the scam process:
Action 1: Building Trust Through Manipulation
The scammers approach potential investors and developers, weaving elaborate stories about their experience, connections, and the project's imminent success. They use persistent flattery, fabricated updates, and emotional manipulation to gain trust and create a sense of exclusivity.
Action 3: Promising Imminent Launch and Profits
Investors and developers are repeatedly assured that the project is on the verge of launching. The scammers claim that new features, partnerships, or regulatory approvals are just around the corner, fueling a sense of urgency and excitement.
Action 5: Continuous Requests for More Funding
As time passes, the scammers claim additional funds are needed to overcome new obstacles. They pressure investors for more money, insisting that each new contribution will finally lead to the project’s completion and everyone’s profit.
Action 2: Presenting the Investment Opportunity
They pitch the “Foodriver” project (also known as fdriver, fdrive, FDC coin) as a revolutionary food delivery platform. Investors are told they can participate by either purchasing FDC tokens at a special discount or simply transferring money directly to the project. Both options are presented as rare opportunities for high returns.
Action 4: Delaying with Excuses and Fabricated Problems
Whenever investors request updates or results, the scammers provide convincing excuses: technical setbacks, regulatory issues, or the need for further development. These delays are always framed as temporary, with the promise that success is just out of reach.
Action 6: Cycling to New Victims
Once existing investors become suspicious or lose patience, the scammers shift focus to new targets, repeating the same manipulative tactics and false promises. The cycle continues, with no real product ever being released.
Key Points
- Emotional Manipulation: Victims describe feeling pressured, misled, and strung along with false hope.
- Financial Loss: Many lost significant sums, with no legal recourse due to lack of formal agreements.
- Pattern of Behavior: Stories consistently mention broken promises, shifting deadlines, and evasive communication.
