Asia hosts a fake tournament featuring fake teams
Ihor MatusNoxville shared his observations regarding the ongoing Bazooka Battle. Even teams that have been disbanded take part in the current championship, and all profiles of players from the participating teams are fake.
Recall that among the teams taking part in the tournament, there are teams such as Neon Esports, Execration, Team Adroit, 496 Gaming and others. It is noteworthy that recently Adroit talked about the disbandment of their Dota roster, but this does not prevent fraudsters from taking part in the tournament on behalf of this team. The bookmakers have this championship and they accept bets on it.
Neon Esports reacted as soon as possible to the analyst's statement and warned their fans that their roster was not taking part in the Bazooka Battle. They confirmed his guess and called the organizers scammers.
Liquipedia representatives said that the attackers used their resource to organize fake championships. In their opinion, many sites and bookmakers use the API with Liquipedia, and therefore the process of organizing fake championships can be easier than it seems at first glance.
