As a Legitimate Startup you'll have to deal with the deserved bad reputation of Kickstarter. Sadly it's glory days have long passed, only the money grabbers are left. As a so-called "investor" it's to easy for them to say "that's the risk" after you clearly got scammed by people who should never have been allowed on the platform. It took me four times before I finally learned my lesson. I hope this message helps prevent you making the same mistake even once.
