Bitcoin Forum

I did 50$ once. and you ? 

i lost 1 dollar in real-funds.net ... wat about u ?

I lost big money with the big ore-mine[1] scam and thought really that it was a legit service. After that I invested once again in a scam service and that was cldmine[2] but that was just a few cents. Sadly enough such services keep popping up all the time and people have to be aware that it is just a waste of time and money.

he he he... You had $50 because other people lost money.

In my first days here in the forum I was cheated and stolen, I can not remember how much money was stolen... in January of this year when egopay closed I lost a lot of money. Egopay was not exactly a site hyip was a payment processor that unfortunately supported ponzi schemes, I kept my money in egopay because I thought it would be safe.

In 2009 I lost $30 in a site called money2pay, they swore that it was not ponzi scheme and I believed at the time, again I lost money on another site, if I were to count how many sites I've already lost money, I think it would be something around Of more than 1000 sites and some must be ponzi scheme (because they were sites ptc) or hyip. Well, with past mistakes, you learn the lesson of life.

No because I was raise to believe, if something seems to good to be true then it is. Nobody is going to double your btc or anything even close lol

Just 3$ and i promise to my self not to join on hyip sites again, so better to think first before joining in this sites,invest what you can afford to loose. So dont cry when you get scammed

I think that everyone here have lost something... :-\
at least until he understand that these % and "companies" are just lies.

I lost ~0.66BTC in January 2015 testing few scam websites. At least I received a gift from some people in this forum and I put myself in contact with really good skilled people who help me with study deeply the "art" of scam and many things beyond this "world". Today I help people not fall in this schemes and I work with good people seeking scammers around the globe.

Yes i already lost in every hyip sites many times, thats why i learned a lot because of what happened to me. And now i dont want tobget involve in any hyip site anymore cause i will end up crying.

I habe not lost any money to any HYIP site because I'm not an idiot and if you do decide to try "invest" in criminals and their ponzi schemes then you deserve tonlose your money and noone feels sorry for you infavg its because of people still falling for these that they still do them. If people stopped being stupid and giving them money they would just dissapear. Its just like beggers in the street.

Only once thats why i hate all the hyip ,doublers that being posted in here. Only invest what you can afford to loose. Dont fall on thier promising offers they are all fake  .

you should not have as much hatred, When you lose something many times, you becomes someone more prudent or someone full of hate.

Hyip industry is very dangerous because people even knowing the scammer they do not denounce... it is unbelievable that you see how much the hyip community is united, strong and loyal, they are united by ambition.

You should look at the hyip community as a criminal organization, a drug cartel more sophisticated and without morality

Since 2009 ive been playing hyip and i win some and lose some, just stop last year due to bad market conditions and its hard to make money from hyips nowadays, its best to keep your money rather than investing in hyips.

I lost 90$ in bitcoin for HYIP for double bitcoin for 100 hours. when I was ready to withdraw money before 6 hours , The site was scammed and I coud not see my deposit. Generally, HYIP is always like that and we must accept this fact.

I wonder if there isn't a site or forum-post with an overview of investment HYIP's and such, where it is clearly stated which can be trusted, and which are pilles of crap ponzi schemmes.

I have lost several times before when i was newbie in online world, investing here and there to get some passive income. But currently i am just investing in real projects rather than hyip/ponzi programs and schemes.

Yeah and I think it is pretty normal in the cyber world I mean even in the normal world there is a lot of scammer,
And when it comes to the internet it is way more easier to scam specially in some HYIP or PONZI schemes sites

well I think being scammed is normal for an investor,I mean you should know that there will always be a time that you will be scammed,and not all of your investment will earn some profit

Well mine when i was new in crypto i just scam by 3 different scam sites if you remember coinsera and the 2 cloud mining site just forgot their name i just invest of 0.1 btc each of that site because few weeks you can make profit.. the bad part is that the price of bitcoin is low that is why i buy bitcoins for a cheap price i think 0.1 is $20 before. and now regretting that i think it is better to hold my bitcoins before than investing it in scam sites..

My situation was far worse. I lost 20$ in BTC to Bitcoins.work website. What's worse, I was under the impression that they really work so I referred a friend to earn from that website. He lost 20$ too and accused me of scamming. I had to pay his loss. I learned a lesson way too hard :P
I try to warn users of potential scam whenever I see one.

It was during the initial starting days when I was new to hyip and online money making, I had inherited a small fortune and was very excited to try and double it Asap. That's when I came across hyip I invested in one cashed out and then I invested heavy in hyip and lost. But I thought one would be bad other good so I again invested and lost and that's when I realized it's all scam. Waste of time and money. I have lost around 200$ so far 😔

I have lost some money from hyip's which turned into scam. It was only few dollars. I know about risk of investments into such sites is very risky, so I only invested small amount of money. Now I'm trying to avoid investment sites, but still sometimes I'm investing few dollars if I see that HYIP is serious and wont close in few days.

i lost more than 50$ but that days bitcoin price was around 270$.

I lost $180 coming from a legit site to a HYIP site and made a deposit by mistake.  Now I never visit these sites and always double triple or quadruple check what transfer I'm about to make so it never happens again. A very expensive lesson.
