Title: Is this true or a speculation
Post by: Juggy777 on October 30, 2016, 11:43:47 AM
Somewhere while surfing I read popular sites often makes less known sites use the money to pay first then scam and then continue on the popular sites. Could this also be happening in the Bitcoin industry. Start a roll dice or casino, open a hyip and then hyip goes scam and front site continues, no one comes to know. Or this is purely speculation, none of this happens?

I think that such scenario happen many times, unfortunately.
I'm sure that we have serial scammers which open HYIP after HYIP, SCAM after SCAM, just with different names and identities.
I advice you not to play with HYIP or casinos because 99 % of people loose money there.
Only admins and top leaders earn there.
When program collapse, admin just change his name, open similar program and start over.
I's always the same, scam tactic.

I know I have lost a lot in hyip. And latest one where we all lost by our greed where a member took btc and paid us 30000-40000 satoshi's per day. He kept paying and suddenly boom gone. Ya I will stay away from casinos thanks.

Yes there are many sites which had same owner and scammed same users several times in different projects. You can see this type of pattern mostly in HYIP and PTC sites, they lure paying for few days and at end they will scam all users and run away with whatever they have collected. Wait few month and develop another ptc/hyip with some modification in project model and again start to lure and this cycle go round and round.

This is very common practice and this happen in every kind of investment, gambling and online jobs.

The most common in bitcoin world are HYIP, cloud mining and casino.
Also, it becomes easier every day because people sell template website/license for HYIP, ponzi cloud mining or gambling which not too expensive ($100 - $1000 from what i've found).

But, because they're very similar, people over time will learn about the truth in hard way.
I think in some other blackhat forums are giving and share this template or the whole script just changing the design and repeating scam every where using bitcoin.. Since you are newbie better to stay away to them..

That's the problem it's always the hard way. We earn money with so much effort and they just steal it. Really hate this kind of guys

Unfortunately yes, scammers are hiding behind anonymity and take advantage of people's greed and ignorance again and again.
You should always do a research before you deposit your money in any site and keep in your mind this rule.

I would not be surprised if those kinds of things happen. We already know of large scale scams at sites like mtgox and cryptsy, so there are probably many others as well.

Some of these site start with good business models, and then they find out that the business model cannot be successful, and it turns to Ponzi type schemes to supplement the income. They might even start with Ponzi type schemes and then turn to legal business models when the site shows good profit. I am talking about some of the early cloud mining sites. It is a pity that the legal sites, also have to close their doors in the end. ^hmmmmm^

Post by: Seansky on October 31, 2016, 05:55:07 AM
This scenario happening I think is already happening to bitcoin industry. These sites are what makes bitcoin reputation bad, but these scammers makes their site looks legit at first. Look at the cloud mining sites that scammed many people, at first they were paying good. Then after having many investors trusting them, they ran away with all their funds. In the end, they are just yet another ponzi scheme so don't invest in cloud mining sites.


Title: Re: Is this true or a speculation
Post by: xuan87 on October 31, 2016, 06:12:25 AM
Yes it is happen in bitcoin, in fact there are more HYIP, ponzi and cloud mining compare to other, they just switch their name and change their site, the one that fall for it usually greedy people and newbie, that is why when ponzi come to this site there are always warning from other people, actually it's the best if this kind of thing can be erased, so the bitcoin reputation will become better

we can see this is happen in bitcoin industry and for your information, this is not just happen in bitcoin industry, because i think with money involve, there is a way for website to scam their member and close the site. but as long as we careful to make an investment or want to make some money, then i think we are safe but that safe is not forever because there are no safety place in internet.

Ofcourse that happens, a lot of people start a scam program, earn some bitcoins and then they start a business with that money and while that happening they may repeat the same thing again, it is happening mostly in bitcoin industry though it happens everywhere on internet.

yes it is true, most of the cycles and PTC HYIP always swirling continue. today to see the site was still the same, then if it is a fraud then they change the look of their site to be different. but in fact they are still the same as before. I see most of them is the most onwards is always a scam.

In the internet , you can make anything like HYIP , PTC , and other source of income . The process is easy as hell , just copy the script and do some configuration you'll go with it (Never did it before , and don't try it  >:( ) . After they reached the Goal , they would start to closed their business and run away with the members money and the worst case is using bitcoin as the payment gateway (irreversible currency).

This isn't only a speculation , but it has lot of proofs to validate this . So , be aware with the "unusual" site you meet.

Surely it is already happen in the bitcoin industry and many greedy people who are doing this to fool people and just for them to benefit from other people's money. So be cautious and I think you are still new in bitcoin industry and thinks that this is just new, so be careful and don't ever try to interact those websites or else you'll suffer.

It could happen. has a lot of websites that originally paid and reliable, in the end they ran away with bitcoin bring all that we have. bitcoin investment in the world is quite risky. all systems are anonymouse.

Well some people dont view bitcoin as a currency just like fiat in some ways but some magical thing, so they dont think as much when investing it into some shady websites, also right now everone would like to earn something while doing nothing so many users decide on investing in various websites that offer good daily income or something like that.

This is typically person who too lazy doing nothing but also greedy to earn bitcoin, this is very common found people like this and some few people haven't consider if the site is scam obviously until the site shut down. Don't feed scammer please.

But not all bitcoin industry turn into scam scheme.
Research and dig deeper before dealing with.

That is true, I have used many of these sites and at the end they only succeeded in running away with my hard earned money so wherever I do see a site like those, I want to be very careful how I approach them. In fact I do not use them again because I have been disappointed for so many times. Also I like to suggest to everyone to be very careful.

Regarding HYIP sites, they look attractive to investors when they give you 150% or 130% after one day. Unfortunately, all investors in those HYIP sites know that those sites will stop paying sooner or later, but some people like the risky investments.
Better to stay away from them.

I think this is a very rare case really when real businesses turn into scams and still more rare, if not completely impossible, for scams to become a good business. You need to have a special psychological traits to become a successful scammer, or just a scammer, for that matter, and you will always be like that. In my opinion, if a business turns out to be a failure, people behind it will just close it and switch to something else. Most likely, you talk about purportedly "good" businesses that were deliberate scams right from the start.

Prevention is better than a cure... At least people are asking theirselves about it, and not just putting more throw the air.

Bitcoin comunity have a lot of scamers, it's like the currency of scam. Sites asking for you money? Obviously a bad idea.

If you are not watching what you click you need to get more paranoid about how you conduct business on the net.
Its far to easy for sites to pretend to be something they are not to establish a connection to you and rope you in.

Quite often I notice when I google that some new site is at the head of the search after months/years of one site being the only option. It happens enough to watch every google search you make for a familiar site you have not bookmarked.

It is happening to in bitcoin everything online or offline many people are scam if you dont know how to get rid for those scammer you can be victim.
So first you do research about the site and check their review but sometimes the reviews was not true so better to check and research first and ask by many people.

This is a typical example, http://www.badbitcoin.org/ where we provide the tools for people to determine in advance if the site is a scam or a hype and even with prior warning or even just a little bit of research <Google > they would not have lost any money. I guess greed clouds people's sound judgement. Next time you want to invest in one of these shady operations, just use Google first, you would be amazed at how usefull it can be. ^sarcasm^

Yes that is right, Still, many bitcoin users still invest on those different kind of hyips or investment sites that offers a big return or get rich fast schemes. In my opinion, we, bitcoin users should research first and try to figure out how to use different search engine sites and always use those different informations that came from to search engines as a basis on deciding to invest or not. We don't need to listen to the people who promotes those HYIPs because they all want is commissions or referrals which can give them bigger returns, don't listen to their flowery words about the HYIP site. Do your own research and try to figure out by yourself if that investment site is worth it or not.

Not only single site many people are launching 2 are 3 sites simultaneously once they make profit with one site they will close down the site, they will run the other two site with the profit made by them until they get from those 2 sites also. Very Disgusting.

This is a pretty old school scam method and scammers still use it to cheat. :(

I don`t know about popular bitcoin casinos and dice sites which use this trick.

Maybe because of the small btc community sooner or later the scammer will be revealed.

That is not a speculation but a truth and a trend that is constantly occurring online. They are offering huge returns on investment in such a short time. Most of the victims are the newbies who are inexperienced. I remembered the times back when I fall into the trap of scam sites.

Today they disguise as crowdfunding site, networking, mining and almost any kind of site. So to avoid them make sure to do the research before investing.

That really happen often. Its up to you if you choose to trust them or not. Hyip  sites is prone to scamming since its very easy to create a new one. Once they get the funds that you give to them. They will gone together with your money and they start a new one. They will do this over and over. Until theres a lot of idiot there who trust them. Scamming incidents will never stop.

you are 200% right

Yes it is and no currency is exempted, every kind of currency might experience that kind of scheme. That is why we should research throughly on what site we are going to invest our money. Better avoid the Cloud Mining/HYIP/PONZI/Pyramid ones.

In some cases, When a HYIP site is newly established it will pay for the first weeks and after collecting the desired amount, the site will close along the money of its investors

actually people recognize scams or even shady businesses from legit ones easily if they use their brain for a moment.
that is why your website is not getting enough people' becasue it is shady you have failed to explain it in order to clear the air. you already have 4000+ posts but not a single one of them is a clear explanation!
and meanwhile you insist on not being scam everywhere on the forum!

This has been found in all sectors not only in online websites. Another thing is that it's truly hard to differentiate the legit from the scam as legit websites were the controllers. Also this makes the scam data managing service providers not able to make perfect data to support users stay away from scams.

I don't see that this is not speculation people want to know when the bitcoin will increase and they predicting it they expecting that bitcoin will be trend and will it be spike and will be constantly occuring the market. I don't really believe this kind of investment site are offering huge return of investment they are trying to fool you out people mostly newbie are the target of investment sites , i should say that just wait for the spike happen then.

That is just what other people do they will make a site that has put the content over the site then if you visited it and tried it out it end up to be just a fraud, they will just put up some bait that people now a days have been searching for then put up a content that does not really involve the topic you want sometime they are using ads and survey question for their own gain the worst is to required the visitor to put some money or bitcoin so they can download or view the content!

Somewhere while surfing I read popular sites often makes less known sites use the money to pay first then scam and then continue on the popular sites. Could this also be happening in the Bitcoin industry. Start a roll dice or casino, open a hyip and then hyip goes scam and front site continues, no one comes to know. Or this is purely speculation, none of this happens?

yes and of course this is happen in the bitcoin industry as we can see the website that offer this services which is known with HYIP but for the deposit and withdraw, that site is using bitcoin and not money/fiat. if you don't be careful, you might have to get scammed by that site, because their slogans is first come, first profit.

I think that such scenario happen many times, unfortunately.
I'm sure that we have serial scammers which open HYIP after HYIP, SCAM after SCAM, just with different names and identities.
I advice you not to play with HYIP or casinos because 99 % of people loose money there.
Only admins and top leaders earn there.
When program collapse, admin just change his name, open similar program and start over.
I's always the same, scam tactic.



that is true. a few people get profit from scamming the others. so it is not a speculation, it happens. just be careful when you use your money. do not once gamble, trust HYIP or kind of thing because some people lose much than earn. that's why I am never into any gambling sites.

Ya some lessons are learnt hard. I have totally avoided hyip, though earlier I used to invest a lot and loose a lot. But finally have decided to give up on hyip. I do yet gamble on dice sites but that also I am reducing now cause of the looses. It's a pain this scammers they cheat us of our hard earned money and then come back hate them.

Yes there are many sites which had same owner and scammed same users several times in different projects. You can see this type of pattern mostly in HYIP and PTC sites, they lure paying for few days and at end they will scam all users and run away with whatever they have collected. Wait few month and develop another ptc/hyip with some modification in project model and again start to lure and this cycle go round and round.
The scam sites always seems quite different but behind the project it's all the same, frauds.
Learn the pattern, they cover up with sweet promises and easy profits every week/month.
Well, it's not so easy to recognize them if the sites has going for a long time, like 6 months or 1 year.
Just be cautious to invest your money everywhere, even on the trusted sites you could lose it all.

There will be no scammer if there's no people will eat the bait.

What is the problem here? Not because people especially the new one didn't know a certain is a scam one but some people are lazy to do work. They want to earned fast money in a passive way. That kind of traits are easily get being attracted by those hyip sites and will turned those sites into a legit one in a lazy person's mind.

Common sense sometimes must be used regularly. Also worked to earned not to sit to earned.

Definitely true. When the mind is empty and the person is lazy then they won't be trying to work actively. They will always try for passive income and scammers bait for those guys. And yes the people need to understand and verify which is honest and which is a scam. Then only the percentage of scamming will get low.

True 100% true, when I was new in this online money making online, all I wanted was to make a quick bucks and I actually believed I could. The way they showed it, I mean the way they baited me. I never really researched just went on loosing, till I finally realized had to read more and then understood the scams. Now I am able to spot a scam and warn people, though next time I will quote your words, bang on point.

Many websites are like you said on bitcoin too, and they have gone with bitcoins their users.
Usually HYIP's website and the mostly fake cloud mining service without really mining.
It has been happening on bitcoin industry too, and it had made bad impact on bitcoin.

Because of the scam using bitcoins had made the people doesn't believe in bitcoins for the people who don't too understand about bitcoins.
And it maded bitcoin becoming victim be blamed because of scam using bitcoins.

I got scammed myself because I was looking to make money online and those sites promise you that you will double or make a decent profit. What I learned the hard way is you need to do your due diligence before investing on any sites, look for reviews and find the legitimate one.

Even in the bitcoin world, the scammers are here with their online cloud mining :(

There are many websites like these. A thief won't stop after its first crime, they need more and more money every time so they go for bigger scams. I doubt these guys even get their site "hacked", it's just another reason to run away with the money with this excuse. After they close one website, they open a better looking one to attract more people and they go on with the scams. Never keep your funds in any website.

That really happen often. Its up to you if you choose to trust them or not. Hyip  sites is prone to scamming since its very easy to create a new one. Once they get the funds that you give to them. They will gone together with your money and they start a new one. They will do this over and over. Until theres a lot of idiot there who trust them. Scamming incidents will never stop.

Yes, this is right, it is your choice, scamming is hard to figure out specially when you were hooked with their offers. Need to keep your
eyes and mind open so that Scam dont hit you.

I've a lot rumors about this too on a gambling site from where i play. Most of them are owner of sites and High Roller gambler. But from what I've heard they rather make investment sites than a casino site since it easier to do and less expensive. Still there's a lot of people being scam by these site especially newbies.

It's true and many users had scammed, this is one problem in bitcoin trust and security.
We have to do some research before join in such sites, who's the devs team (man behind the project).
Easier if they have good reputation, if they haven't then be cautious to deposit so much, just a little bit that you could afford to lose it is safer.

A trustworthy company is not immune from scam, it is pure market speculation. There should be a system of escrow or breakthrough that oversees it. As long as there is no punishment, these companies will just change the name and office with almost the same system.

For now we can only predict the return on investment, if successful, we were lucky.

As a sensible person you would definitely find or do some research regarding to a website if its legit or not.Doing scan is really an advisable thing to do. Scammer are everywhere and HYIP is one of the examples of it and other Ponzi sites. This is reality and we should really be careful on our bitcoins.

You are right bitcoin is especialy convenient for different kind of scams because scammers are often very  hard to trace and identify. Cloud mining sites could be especialy dangerous I can't remember any of them that is legit and where people haven't lost their money.

I don't bits then but managed to play using their tokens. Only stopped when i realized I'd need to accumulate 200,000 tokens to convert it to satoshis to cash out. :D It was fun though.

At this point, almost all users familiar to crypto are aware that most cloud mining websites are scams, the problem is that users who are new to crypto don't have that knowledge. It is important that there are solutions to educate these people, so that they do not have bad experiences with Bitcoin, and they also don't transmit negative news out there.

that is very bad, in fact we have a lot of such problems, and these must be solve if we want to have good future of bitcoin, as once people become scam then the never like to invest again a big amount even in a trusted site, therefore we need to overcome these weakness in priority basis.

offer you one thing. but end up with something else

Even if we do our research, even the high trust rating will scam or disappear sooner or later. I just remembered hashocean and minutebtc they gain high trust ratings and stay for a year before they scam people collecting millions if money. I also tried the safest investment sites according to some reviews but the income is very poor and you cannot take back your capital. The only thing to earn today is just to hold your bitcoins and wait for an inflation.

Great. That is what in my mind also I don't go to investment sites but rather do trading even in small amount, and I'll take a hold in my bitcoin from now on and wait for its value for the next two years before I withdraw it.
I don't trust any investment sites for now, I have already trauma with them, I am happy with my earnings now.

We cannot eliminate HYIP sites, they seem to be offering a great opportunity when it's starting to the eyes of the newbies and we cannot control newbies as they have their own judgement and some even think that they can take advantage of the HYIP by exiting faster once ROI is already realized.

This will continue to exist but if we do not support them, they will not be successful of scamming the majority of investors, there is no law that governs bitcoin so they can do whatever they want.

Well that's is not new any more in this field of industry in bitcoin world, I think the thing that we can do now we should be very careful in any site like hyip is to avoid them at once for us not to be a victim.
We cannot eliminate HYIP sites, they seem to be offering a great opportunity when it's starting to the eyes of the newbies and we cannot control newbies as they have their own judgement and some even think that they can take advantage of the HYIP by exiting faster once ROI is already realized.

This will continue to exist but if we do not support them, they will not be successful of scamming the majority of investors, there is no law that governs bitcoin so they can do whatever they want.

to be honest I wouldn't call them "newbies" instead they are idiots who are also desperate enough to think they can make money this way. HYIP is a scam, and we all know it and anybody who stumbles upon them for the first time figures it out too. but only those who don't use their brains think they are profitable.

all these strategies of getting in first, .... are delusions of these people. they are gambling with terrible odds of winning.

It worked in the past with real world scams and pyramid schemes because they required a lot of effort and initial investment to start up the whole business. That's the reason why first "investors" could actually earn something through them, else the operators would be at a loss if they ran away with their money without delay. Today you don't need a lot of investment, and you can close the business in a matter of a few days, after receiving some money.

It really happens before but now ,in new generation people were more smarter we think most of the time if its scam or not because it is the trend the story of getting scam. Now we learned already our lesson to research before doing. In this way we can avoid getting scam. And be profitable in investing.

Agreed earlier it was very easy to scam use the same tried method and people really had no means to be aware but now thanks to alert people and the same boring methoda we can spot a scam and stay clear of it. But try as you much this guy's succeed with the newbies the most. They easily fall for it. Though every one trying to help but newbies really need to be cautious.

Well, I also feel a lot of sites like it, so you should prepare for the worst of all possibilities, and to be good at picking up the opportunity. basically the site as it always provide a fee at the beginning of the opening of the site, however, will end the scam within a certain time. Well, I guess in a way that is how they make money. so you have to take risks for it.

It is very difficult to avoid all the HYIP sites because due to very attractive offers many people start attracted towards them. Yes newbie’s are always thinking HYIP sites are best for investment and their ends up by losing their money. I don't think we can stop them because many people are always interested in investing their money in them.

Greed makes people lose control and common sense. And it is applicable not only to newbies. A lot of people who are well experienced on the whole also fall victim to such schemes sometimes. It is mostly a matter of finding the right approach to a certain individual and making him believe in the reliability and profitability of a scam enterprise. Investors are such people by their nature simply because they have to believe in the success of their investments. Bitcoin itself is an example of that where a good deal of blind trust in its future is required.

People make this system as means of their living or earning.  Even though this kind of system is very dangerous there are lots of people often see this thing a quick money grab.  Companies are keep on establishing this kind of model because there are lots of people patronizing this scheme even though it makes other people loses their money or company shutsdown in the long run.  Unless people stop supporting this kind of money game, Company will never ceased to exist and prey on their victim.

Well this is the problems that bitcoin is facing right now. Scammers  are everywhere. Some victims of this scamming incidents are just noob users. Maybe if they are careful. Maybe it will lessen this kind of crime. Its a bad publicity for bitcoin. I think scam can never be stopped. Sometimes it will give us lessons.

In real life this is happening and in bitcoin industry this is not even a new thing. That's why we just need to learn from our own experiences and as well as others. Only those newbies are just becoming victims of those schemes because of their want to have a fast income which they really don't have an idea that those are just scams.

So research before doing anything ,scammers were everywhere. We can't please them so we need to be more intelligent on deciding. Only those scammers I think is the problem of bitcoin .

Ponzi schemes. Just like a HYIP site only those who are first will be paid and sadly those who joined late got scammed. Many sites does that, that's why we have trust issues on a site, we need assurance that they will last long. But nothing last forever aight? so that's why we need to be wiser than anyone. When you join a HYIP site just predict when will they run. And withdraw all your balance before they run.

That's like a gamble then. You can run from an HYIP site before it's turning out to be scam site but only if you know how's the characteristic, otherwise you will lose what you've invested with huge risks there
and every HYIP have different timing so, hit and run method is not really effective on this case

The following depicts my take as to why this tread with its grammatically incorrect OP was created:

It is already easy to spend BTC. It is becoming easier to buy and sell BTC.

To close the cycle and have a real Bitcoin economy we really need some way for millions of people to be able to earn BTC.

Thankfully there is a simple way to achieve that:

https://www.fiverr.com/   millions of gigs, already takes Bitcoin for funding (via Coinbase)

https://www.uber.com    Over 1 million drivers worldwide      (works with Braintree/Paypal)

https://www.airbnb.com/  34.000 cities, over 1 million listings (works with Braintree/Paypal)

https://www.freelancer.com/  15 million users. 8 million projects. (works with Paypal)

The follow is my take as to why this thread with its grammatically incorrect OP was created.

If we can get just these 4 to do Bitcoin payouts for contractors, it will give access to millions worldwide to earning BTC. Anyone with a house, a car or able to work will be able to #EarnBitcoin.

The payment processors are already in contact with these companies and have been offering the option to receive Bitcoin payments... how hard can it be to offer the option of Bitcoin withdrawals/payouts?
Fiver and freelance is not that easy to earn, it really requires luck and effort to earn it. I would suggest signature campaign as a far more effective method rest i feel are slow or difficult to earn. So I think you should add signature campaign also. Rest is faucet site and get few, 100 refs then only one can earn.

Question: How many Juggy777 sockpuppets do you think commented in this thread? My educated guess is no less than four, thus at least five accounts making bank for one person via starting, then commenting on contrived threads. Madness!

Of course there are scam sites, and there may be some run by operators of legitimate sites.
All you need is basic skills to make a decent looking website, and either get ranking up or pay for traffic to increase your search results,
and eventually you will get some users signing up.
Its so cheap to host a website these days, you only need to scam a few users and you will make money.

Bitcoin has a lot of new users and its hard to know who to trust.
Since we still rely on third parties to convert fiat to and from Bitcoin, there is a risk of getting scammed if you don't deal with a reputable company.

I don’t see why it may not happen but if an established casino to try that it could be its ruin if it was ever found out they were doing scams, people will lose faith in that casino immediately and no one will play there anymore, since bitcoin casinos are so successful I don't think they need to pull such a dirty move.

Many companies have used this system, I have come across a model of these ones that provide a good investment opportunity, they get the funding they roll out a few payments so they could  gain the trust of the people, and then simply walk away with the money, a company called Hash Ocean has done this before, it was a cloud mining project and the founder got greedy and walked away with a fortune.

There are many sites like those, and those sites mostly use bitcoin for payment because it's hard to trace. Their victims are people who want to make easy money and people who just start in bitcoin.
So, be aware to that kind of sites. You won't get money from those sites, it's only ripe your money off.

So if it is a free choice of everyone and their responsibility to face the consequences as you say. But it also means that everyone is basically free to scam on their neighbor, and they shouldn't face any legal consequences for doing so. I'm more than sure that these scams and HYIPs include a point in their terms that they don't give any guarantees "explicit or implicit" as well as decline any responsibility for the possible loss of money.
