$BON SCAM ALERT

Today (Feb 1, 2025), at 33 days before the lauch of our $BON Token, I discovered that there is at least one scammer on Pump.fun that has made a token using our branding and linking to our website and social media accounts. Only trust the token address that is provided on this website, in the $BON Token section, at the time of launch for the official $BON Token.  The $BON Token will launch live on on March 7, 2025 at 6PM Central Standard Time.  Any token using our branding prior to this is a scam/fraud and should be avoided and not associated with our project.  The scam token I refer to can be found here.  The developer wallet behind it appears to be a throw away account, although I have not tracked its incoming Solana back any further.  I'm sure it's connected to other accounts of a known scammer.  

It should also be mentioned that there is another Bonfire project that appears to have many copies as well.  This is a different project altogether, and is neither associated with our Bonfire Coin Community, nor tries to represent that they are.  

I also noticed today that there were 8 new accounts (with no activity) made in the forums in the last 2 days. All use unique email addresses, however they only belong to 2 domains, which both lead back to some Russian insurance website.  I will monitor this situation, but it shouldn't be too big of an issue as it's isolated to the website community, which I can monitor at an Admin level.
