 		[TROUT][SPEC]BoldFutura.Org
Quite Possibly IG
Earlier this morning, i had posted on the "Bold Futura Website Open" thread. Someone was speculating that Boldfutura.org was IG.

Well i clicked the link under 'Clients' for Slusho-and it was legit. Then i clicked for Tagruato, and the now-present 'hacked' image came up-so i wrote the following message--

it is OOG. Go to the clients section and click on tagruato's link.

Posted: Today, at 1:16 pm

(Notice i found this hacked image before anyone else)

Well now i am starting to believe, since Boldfutura.jp was taken by someone else, that Bodfutura. ORG may be legit! Does anyone else agree?

 		Looks legit to me. If it is a fake it is really well made.

 		I'm surprised you didn't add a whois, whois.
Tagurato (sp?) was discovered 30 September. I call IG for the simple speed and the fact that this thing is full of loopback links bearing resemblance to Tagurato. Also, if it was a gamejack, we would have received info via a gamejacker post.
Anywaay, this was registered 1st October.

 		 I say [IG]
We have been a little paranoid about GameJacks because of how many fake videos and leads we've recieved, but it looks IG. The page is well done and the used the Bold Futura (upper-script tm), which most people don't have the balls to do when they are faking.

Edit- Has anyone tried calling the Bold Futura phone? TEL + 81-3-6271-1248 That could clear up alot (sorry, I don't have an International calling plan...)

 		I dunno, I think it might be OOG. The setup is very different from the others, no flash, and the links to non existent sites simply dont work, whilst in Tagruato they refer back.

Also, there is no Bold Futura logo.

 		Im too lazy- but someone should email them and say you are worried about the Tagruato Corporation, and ask if they'll still be investing in them.

anyone?

As I said, I sent them a DESTROYING OUR OCEANS mail. If the DESTROYING OUR OCEANS hack is IG (which it might be), I'll get a hate-mail reply soon enough.

I just tried to call the number and got the "the number you have dialed is incorrect or no longer in service" line. Are you sure this is the correct number?

 		This site is 100% OOG / FAKE / GAMEJACK

The site wasn't registered until TWO DAYS after Tagruato was found.

On the other hand, JamieAndTeddy.com was registered BEFORE Teddy's name was mentioned on MySpace.

Besides, it poorly designed. It looks like another "template job", just like the last THREE attempts by BoldFutura.jp to GAMEJACK this movie.

The only way a subsidiary site is going to be "in-game", is if it is linked to by the Tagruato.jp subsidiary page.

R.I.P.

 		Well, I called the telephone number, and a young-ish guy replied saying "Hello?"

I was too nervous to say anything though Embarassed

 		I have to reserve judgment on this incarnation of Boldfutura.org Once it was published it hasn't gone down or been redesigned like boldfutura.jp was. Plus this site looks like a business site to me. Very practical, no flash, in essence business like.

 		OOG, for reasons specified before.

Sucks that tagruato was "hacked", now we can't confirm if it's ingame or not for sure.
