Last week I did a video about three sketchy projects I was getting involved in (https://youtu.be/LAYrnEqQ5s0)
Two are still running strong, but one is a confirmed scam.

AI GeneratedJames Pelton shares his experiences testing high-risk crypto projects. While some remain under observation, he confirms that Ranomex is a scam. Despite the red flags, he managed to withdraw his initial investment plus a profit before the platform attempted to lock his funds behind a required \"upgrade\" deposit.
Hey, this is James Pelton and just wanted to do a quick video today.
Um, I'm actually am, uh, half COVID right now.
So pardon my voice, but this just shows you how dedicated I am, uh, to this crypto world.
I actually feel pretty great.
Just my throat is full of, full of stuff.
So, um, I wanted to do a quick video today.
I made a video, uh, I think it was last week or a couple of weeks ago.
Um, just about these three really sketchy projects that I was going to just put a little
bit of money in and just see how they went.
And, um, two of them are still kind of going strong.
Um, Viono, I, their website just looks nice.
And for some reason that just gives me more trust in them, even though they're offering
something, you know, kind of crazy 24% monthly interest.
Uh, but you know, that's not much crazier than like drip or strong.
So I still have my money in them.
I've been getting the 24% monthly.
Uh, I'm going to give it a little bit longer before I do a full video on this Viono.
Cause again, if you Google it, people say it's a Ponzi scheme as they do with a lot
of these projects.
And, um, I don't know what I usually do.
I put in a little bit, make sure I can withdraw it, um, read what I can about it.
And then, you know, make a decision.
I don't put too much into, into projects like this, but Viono's one, um, this Pareba bank
is definitely more on the sketch side.
Um, this is unique private bank.
Doesn't instill like a ton of confidence, uh, in the project.
Um, but the one that I can confirm is a scam and you can tell by looking at the website,
but I just confirmed it, but I was able to get my money back with, uh, actually a little
bit extra is this Ranomex site.
Uh, before we get into it though, I want you to check out this Christmas, shout out to
my wife for this Christmas present.
Isn't this awesome?
This is the coolest thing that I've ever seen.
The best Christmas present that I've ever gotten.
Okay.
Anyways, back to Ranomex.
So Ranomex claims that you're going to put in some money and they're going to put it
into some mining.
And if you put in 50 bucks, you get 3% a day.
If you put in 500 bucks, you get 5% a day, 5,000 bucks, you get 7% a day, 15,000 bucks,
you get 9% a day.
So those are ridiculous returns, right?
9% a day, uh, 270% a month.
If you compounded that, I mean, that number would be so high.
Okay.
That's be crazy.
I mean, that'd be, uh, that'd probably be six figure APY.
Okay.
So this didn't look legit.
The website just kind of screams, Hey, I'm a scam.
I want to take your money.
Um, and the, the kicker for me as a computer programmer is down at the bottom copyright
2020.
It's like, come on, you can't even update that 2021.
But I decided, you know, it's obviously a scam.
I'm still going to put in 500 bucks.
You know, scammers need their money too.
So I did put in my 500 bucks and the first thing I checked was, can I, I put in 500 bucks
on just this, uh, that plan for 5%.
I'm like, Hey, can I withdraw a little bit of money?
So I was able to, as you can see here, I was able to withdraw.
I was able to withdraw my first profits.
Okay.
So I'm like, Oh, well that's interesting.
And then I got in touch with their support and I said, Hey, do you have like any info
on the team?
And they said, no.
And they said, do you have any, um, reviews?
Cause if you like search for reviews, you, there's nothing.
There's one trust pilot review, which doesn't instill a lot of confidence, a very reliable
platform to earn profits.
This platform should be known by all very helpful.
So that didn't instill like a ton of confidence either.
So I just asked him, Hey, do you have some reviews?
And they said, Oh yeah, we have testimonials on our homepage.
And so Dave Ford, unbelievable.
This is a dream come true.
No way would I ever think I would earn profit like this.
Um, so again, just a lot of things that didn't still profit, but I got a withdrawal to come
through to my wallet.
So I thought, okay, maybe, maybe they're okay.
Ish.
Um, so I let it go for a few more days.
I got up to like 800 bucks.
Cause when you're getting this 5% a day, then you, I mean, you, you can grow pretty quickly.
Then I got this email around Christmas time.
Congratulations.
And I was like, Oh, good.
Something good happened to me.
As we celebrate this festive season, we're running a free upgrade on every plan.
We're currently, you're currently on the vet plan for the 5% daily.
You've been successfully upgraded to the pro plan.
You have a balance of $800, which is just what I've made.
You're supposed to deposit an extra $4,000 to be enrolled for the pro plan, but a discount
of 50% has been applied to your account.
This is, Oh, Merry Christmas.
You're expected to deposit only $2,100 to be enrolled for the pro plan.
The 50% is already available on your account.
Make a deposit, uh, deposit of 2103.
Now for your account to be fully activated on the pro plan with $5,000.
Congratulations once again, and a Merry Christmas.
Um, so this just put off a lot of alarm bells in me.
So I made this $800 and they're wanting me to put in $2,100, which is a discount to get
on this 7% plan.
So I went in, I said, no, just give me my 800 bucks.
I'm not going to put any more.
And then they said, please kindly, kindly contact our live chat support to guide you
on what to do.
And I thought, Oh, great.
My $800 is gone.
Lesson learned, move on.
But I did go on and I contacted their life support and had a friendly chat where they
insisted I can't withdraw my money unless I deposit this extra 2103.
Um, then I'm not totally sure on how ethical this is.
Um, I told them, okay, if you give me my 793, I think I said, then I will probably deposit
this 2103.
So they let me withdraw my 79, 793.
And then I, I changed my mind after I weighed all the, uh, the consequences.
So I was able to get my 800 bucks.
I put in 500 bucks, made 300 bucks on this scam website, not financial advice.
I don't recommend that you go do this.
Um, but if you'd like to try, uh, feel free.
It's random x.com.
So I just thought this was a fun story.
I am going to have a video hopefully later today about putting together the dash diamond
node, but there, there are so many scams and so many rug pulls and honey pots.
Honey pots are where, uh, you buy this coin, but then it's in the contract that you can
buy it, but you can't sell it.
Hey guys, just be careful.
Okay.
Just do your, do your due diligence.
Look around, make sure there's other people that have been successful with the project
before you get into it.
Don't invest money that you could, that you wouldn't be okay losing.
Um, and just stay safe.
Okay.
I just want this to be, to be fun for everybody.
Um, so hopefully this was fun for you and, uh, we'll talk to you later.
