Why Do Legit Crypto Projects Like Apollo Have to Deal With Stalkers Such As Kassam and De Hek?
Every day, we are shockingly reminded of how vulnerable the cryptocurrency industry is to malicious actors.
Legitimate projects like Apollo Fintech, which propose a blockchain-based system to revolutionize the world’s financial systems with advantages such as lower costs and faster transactions, have faced blackmail, threats, and even stalking from those who seek to do them harm.
In this blog, we will discuss two of the biggest perpetrators of this behavior: Sultan Kassam and Danny De Hek. We will also provide key takeaways for projects that wish to protect themselves from similar attacks.
Should We Be Worried About Crypto Stalkers & Attackers?
The answer is an unequivocal yes. Stalkers such as Sultan Kassam and Danny De Hek are a menace to the crypto industry, and any project that is serious about ensuring its success must take steps to protect itself against potential attackers.
Projects should always be aware of the risks associated with malicious actors, especially those with a history of making false claims and using scare tactics to deter potential investors.
It is also important to stay vigilant, as these individuals can quickly mobilize large groups of followers to harass legitimate projects and their associated investments.
Who Are These People?
Let’s begin with Mr. “Crypto Ponzi Scheme Avenger” De Hek, who has been vocal in his criticism of blockchain projects and their associated investments.
His YouTube channel is popular with viewers who enjoy his version of crypto investment “antagonist” advice. Still, he is known for lacking facts and having a biased approach to the industry, which can be detrimental to potential investors.
Sultan Kassam (AKA Sultan Gold Inc, AKA Fort Knox, AKA Apollofintechcryptonews, AKA Cryptonite) is another individual who has been linked to malicious activities in the crypto space.
He has personally targeted Stephen McCullah and his companies’ business partners with blackmail and other threats.
Our investigation revealed that he operates three companies in the United Kingdom and has been a strong opponent of Apollo Fintech’s proposed blockchain system.
What Do They Want, and How Are They Trying to Accomplish Their Goals?
If we knew the answer to this question, it would be much easier to protect the community against such attackers.
However, it appears that these individuals want to scare potential investors away from investing in legitimate projects and investments related to blockchain technology.
They have been known to spread false information and attempt to discredit the credibility of legitimate projects by engaging in smear campaigns and other tactics.
Conclusions – What Can Legit Projects Do to Protect Themselves?
Projects must stay informed about the risks associated with malicious actors and take steps to protect themselves from potential attackers.
This means remaining vigilant, checking sources of information thoroughly, and never investing in something without doing your research first.
Projects should also create a network of trusted advisors who can help them identify these attackers and support them in protecting themselves.
Finally, if necessary, legitimate projects should be ready to take legal action against attackers who engage in activities such as blackmail or defamation of character.
Remember that these malicious actors are a constant threat, and taking proactive steps is essential to protecting your project and its investments.
