So are they scams?
Ill let you be judge.
taken from another site over at https://www.cryptopia.co.nz/Forum/Thread/493
Its meant to serve as quick reference to cryptocoins that have premines, ICOs, airdrops and also the malware coins, outright scams etc.
Not every coin here is "bad", and i leave it for reader to decide. the good, the bad and the ugly are included
will add and update, any help or corrections appreciated does not include the coins already added to cryptopia (might add them in later for a more complete list) exchange name in brackets after ICO is the exchange that that handled the ICO escrow, its does not mean that the exchange created the coin.
poop score is completely arbitrary and based on how shitty i think the coin or its dev is

VOX VOXELS IPO/ICO 100% Premined Devs sold 5% 1.2 M coins and claim to have taken in 1,022 BTC / $350,000 USD in a private presale. then followed this with a 33M Public ICO higher price with tiers.

XBS Bitstake scamcoin
XDE2 / XDEII DoubleEagle2 Premined 100% = 1000 coins - only 14 days was allowed to for XDE holders to make a claim, and the devs keep the remainer for themselves. Hostile coinswap & takeover of XDE with no agreement or acceptance of by its community. reason would appear to be to justify a 100% premine, and allow the dev to dump on unaware traders the rewards of their hijacked and now hiPOS coins. Devs also are selling XPY / Paycoin style Hyperstakers for bitcoin for highPoS Interest wallets. 5 of the 1000% interest wallets is kept for devs, and 1 lucky person can buy one for 2BTC (and pay for for cost of wallet creations service?). They then intend to sell 750% hiPOS wallets for 0.8BTC each or silver for 0.4BTC each. the normal wallet will only stake 500%. All this on a fork and hijack of a coin that was intended to be rare and honest. AVOID
XBC BitcoinPlus ICO (Poloniex) 100% Premined in 2nd block (https://www.blockexperts.com/xbc/height/2) ANN claims total supply of 55350 coins at release while blockchain shows 71750 coins. dev is considered a scammer and this coin is now in its 3rd takeover...

XRP Ripple 100% Premined
YOVI YoviCoin / YobitVirtualCoin Premined 100% 22.83M coins. ICO (Yobit) & official ponzi coin of the yobit.net scam. Yobit uses this coin to con their users out of their bitcoin. To date they have never delivered on any of the roadmap for this coin, and instead it functions as a trap for noobs and stupid people. The scammers that run yobit.net even made a up a fancy sounding term for this ponzi scam, calling it ROM or Rise Only Market. Ridiculous enforced rules prevents users from selling and being able place sell orders, while a user build of buy orders that no one can sell sits "supporting" it. No one but yobit will ever make money on this shit.. As well controlling over 50% of the supply, yobit also gives themselves 5% interest via PoS for being the only node and wallet for this coin. Noobs might think they can withdraw and earn some of that 5%, unlikely but not impossible to for ordinary user to stake its epxected they would always be competing against the main yobit wallet/node and its ~100% of supply for blocks.
ZEC Zcoin 20% of every block is given to the developers/backers. 10 coins for them, 40 coins for the miner
ZET2 ICO (Yobit) Premine = 1.25M coins, 1.167M burned SSxxxxxxxxxBURNADDRESSxxYBTy2JLk2L
