If you took a look at some of the new campaigns on Indiegogo recently, you might have noticed a familiar project:
We’ve talked about Zendure before, but these aren’t the same guys.
There isn’t a whole lot of story here, but according to a user on reddit, someone has copied the Zendure project in its entirety and republished it on Indiegogo. They even went as far as to copy the bio page:
The best part is that it’s flex-funded, so even if these guys miss their goal, they get to keep all the money. They’ve made $21 so far assuming they don’t get shut down before they can collect. I think this is a definite win for whoever approves projects on Indiegogo.
If you’ve got a moment, head over there and report this project for fraud. The (real) Zendure project responded very well to our writeup, and we wish them all the best.
