No contact info or something similar? How do we distinguish this from a "scam" site, if we do not have anyone to hold accountable? Social Media accounts do not count.

If I can't find even the juristriction I'm entering a contract with I usually bail. I wish at least the payment provider would force sellers to reveal the name and address on the checkout page. Neither on the website or the checkout page it's even clear if '$' is US Dollar. On the checkout page it's not clear what currency my credit card is billed with!

Will certainly clear up the pricing section. Yes, "$" is supposed to indicate US dollar.

4000 followers on twitter with zero tweets. None seem to be software developers. This project is giving me more red flags than it should.

Lot of crypto-bro involvement. Basically you can see a lot of BowTied(.*) social media accounts, all talking about instant growth, crypto, ...

I wouldn't touch this stuff with a 10 foot pole.

It's a crypto hustler thing, they create twitter accounts "BowTiedX" and try to grow their following (they follow each other too) and make money online as fast as possible.
