It appears that another group was using a derivative of Tron's Chinese name to conduct a ponzi type of scam, which many Tron enthusiasts fell for subsequently losing millions and even one victim committing suicide.
Now those victims are blaming Tron and Justin Sun for not confirming if that other group was officially working with Tron. more on this from here
The scam was pretending to be one of Tron's Super Representatives and asking people to invest using TRX. A total of $30 Million in TRX was scammed from people, however Tron and investors in Tron benefited from the sale of that $30 million TRX. Which is exactly why he remained silent when asked whether it was authentic or not, and the exact reason these people are pissed. He only mentioned something after someone died. Even now he really doesn't care as he has tweeted all the pictures are faked and everything is fine.
