- FAQ -

• ARE THERE ANY COSTS TO TAG?
  Yes, the TAG is $0.05 plus gas for roughly $0.12 per transaction. All transactions are on the BSC TESTNET blockchain and utilize TESTNET BNB coin for payments while in BETA mode.
• WHY IS THE TOKEN BEING SOLD AND NOT FREE?
  Originally, I wanted to offer tagging for free. However, to deter abuse, a fixed price has been set. If abuse still occurs, the price may be adjusted.
• IS THE TAG REALLY PERMANENT?
  Yes, but only from the recipient's point of view. The BEP-20 token was coded in such a way that it could not be transferred, sold, or deleted by the wallet owner.
• CAN TSSI REMOVE THE TAG ?
  Yes, it cannot be removed per se but it could be burned from a recipient's wallet
• UNDER WHAT CIRCUMSTANCES WOULD TSSI REMOVE A TAG ?
  The TAG would only be removed if an event occurred that would compromise the integrity of the data that's being generated. Removal from bonafide address is the only reason I can see.
• IS THERE A WHITELIST OF WALLETS THAT CAN NOT BE TAGGED?
  Yes, as mentioned above, legitimate contracts and wallets could be whitelisted to prevent tagging. This measure is intended to protect the integrity of the generated data through whitelisting.
• WHO DECIDES IF A WALLET CAN BE WHITELISTED?
  TSSI exclusively will decide which wallets can be whitelisted on a case by case basis.
• CAN WHITELISTING BE PURCHASED?
  No, whitelisting is not for sale but if the volume of revisions increases, there may be a service charge to fast track revisions.
• CAN A WALLET BE REMOVED FROM THE WHITELIST ?
  Yes, if a previously vetted address is found to have gone rogue, it will be removed from the whitelist and be tagged as a result.
• WHAT HAPPENS IF I RECEIVE A TAG ?
  Nothing really, anyone can be tagged, and as such, I suspect there may be instances of revenge tagging and potentially malicious intent behind some tagging. Additionally, wallets can be tagged multiple times, leading us to the next point.
• CAN A WALLET BE TAGGED MORE THAN ONCE?
  Yes, this is intentional. Our belief is that legitimate scammers will be tagged multiple times, making it easier to differentiate them from those who are casually revenge tagging.
• HOW DO I KNOW IF A TAGGED WALLET IS STILL SAFE TO DEAL WITH?
  A tool will be developed to generate a confidence score based on the multi-tagging logic described in the previous point. If a wallet has only been tagged once or twice, it will receive a higher score compared to a wallet that has been tagged numerous times.
• DOES IT COST ANYTHING TO USE THE CONFIDENCE TOOL ?
  No, the tool will be freely accessible for everyone to use. The goal of this initiative is to help individuals make more informed decisions before engaging with a specific wallet address.
• HOW IS TSSI FINANCED ?
  TSSI is a passion project, and all the time and expenses incurred have been self-funded. The income generated from the sale of tags will help me sustain and cover the operational costs of the business.
• WHO IS TSSI, HOW BIG IS THE TEAM?
  There is no team involved in TSSI; it is solely a one-person operation. From conceptualization to coding to the final product, I have handled all aspects by myself, without relying on anyone else. As mentioned earlier, TSSI is a project driven by passion and a desire to address a specific issue. Having experienced being scammed for a significant amount of money, I felt compelled to take action, and TSSI is my response to that experience.
• WHAT IS THE FUTURE OF TSSI?
  I would like to continue to develop tools and products to fight back against scammers. There are some companies that have already developed tools that can assist in making sense of the data we are creating, so possible collaborations and partnerships might be in the future; you never know. Regarding the data being generated, it will be very valuable for law enforcement agencies and will facilitate advanced forensic research, ultimately leading to convictions and a safer crypto space.
• HOW CAN I HELP?
  Participate, tag a scammer, and talk to others to spread the word. We will not see the fruits of our efforts right away; it will take time. However, if TSSI is utilized and widely adopted, it can and will change the crypto space in a positive way. If you would like to donate to the cause, that would also be appreciated and assist me in keeping things running. Eventually, I will need assistance as we grow and will have to hire, but for now, I still work my 5 days a week.
