Topmate - The Scam. Singlehandedly ruined the image of Indian Startups last week. Here's what happened: They listed big people like Elon Musk, Paul Graham, Naval Ravikant, Mr beast on their website and promoted that as if its true. Here's the crazy thing that after that, Paul Graham called TopMate a scam and the then topmate completely changed their website as those people's AI avatars. How low will indian startups stoop for engagment and traction when they dont get any?
