[QUOTE="bombastinator, post: 23763695, member: 43994"] Then it’s fraud. Copywrite violation too likely. There’s money to be had there. Even if they did copywrite in the US it’s still infringement. This is not a new crime. There are things in place. The only reason it worked for that indonesian KFC place is KFC were an acronym done in a common font and in that case KFC stood for something completely different. Plus it was in indonesia. Wouldn’t have flown in the U.S. a lawyer would have a field day. The EU and the USA are NOT indonesia. if someone contacted the real dicodes and told them someone in the US was impersonating them and both diluting and mining their brand it would likely be resolved right fast. Dicodes has too much to lose and too much to gain. Also there is both EU AND US law to play with. Foreign socked away assets may be immune from one but not from the other. The Caymans were once a spanish colony. Weird things can happen. The scammers probably think they are safe because they did something. They are probably wrong. This was an issue in the 19th century too. There are laws in both places. Old and toothy ones. The chances of losing thier company, any personal assetts, and doing jailtime are not low. The company and the personal assets are likely where the money is. [/QUOTE]
