I don't think this is as outlandish as it may sound because it makes me wonder if one of my previous concepts was stolen, not by a VC firm but by someone who was supposed to be a business mentor. Because the nature of the service we intended to provide, the prices and marketing strategy were exactly the same as a competitor who appeared months later, before we even launched the service.No, entrepreneurs..

It couldnt be just coincidence as the type of service we were offering was quite unique. But in the end i discovered a more profitable path and decided to pursue that.
It's always a good idea to approach a well know VC firm, and only after you have the business up and running (where possible), that way they wont use your plan to pinch ideas for some similar business they may be dealing with.
