Light Freq bulb, a crowd raising sponsor, deception supporters

[China LED Internet news] the supporters of the LightFreq smart LED bulbs are silly. According to foreign media, supporters who were delighted to be happy to buy LightFreq smart bulbs on the public platform had not received the products they deserved for eight months overdue.

The LightFreq smart bulb was launched in August 2014 in foreign public platform Kickstarter, and successfully raised $50 thousand for the target in 4 days. By the end of the event, it raised more than 275 thousand dollars.

However, Devon Alli, the sponsor of the crowd, did not send the product to its supporters after the successful completion of the campaign, nor did it pay for his partner, Dynamo.

Dynamo said Devon Alli has been looking for a variety of reasons to refuse to pay. At first, it said that it didn't receive a lot of money from the Kickstarter platform; but later, after Devon Alli got the money, Dynamo couldn't find him again. The Dynamo spokesman said we did our best to find the whereabouts of the fundraiser, but there was no result. The initiator disappeared after the end of the activity, leaving only a pile of unpaid invoices.

In June 2015, it was a few months after the delivery date, and the first generation LightFreq smart bulb had not been sent to the supporters, and Devon Alli opened a new round of public fund-raising activities on another platform Indiegogo to raise funds for LightFreq Square 2. Seeing the start of the second round, the first supporters were very angry about the failure to receive the light bulb, leaving messages to reminding later supporters on the Indiegogo platform.

In the end, the Indiegogo platform closed the campaign ahead of time, but it had raised $77000, and LightFreq got $70765.

Foreign media said supporters were cheated because the platform didn't carefully check the background of the promoter, and the supporters on the Kickstarter platform should be careful. (translation / China LED network Flora)
