The submission presents significant discrepancies and red flags. While the description details 'Lifestein' (a smart jewelry concept by XTRPY), the project name 'The Insurance Center' and email indicate a disconnect, possibly due to domain ownership issues (lifestein.com vs lifestein.tech). Crucially, public records verify that the Lifestein startup was wound down by its founders around 2023 due to lack of funding. The claim that 'most people have used my product' is demonstrably false and heavily penalized. The project appears to be a defunct concept with no active user base or revenue.
