Title: "Multiply your money with guaranty"
Post by: awesome31312 on September 17, 2014, 05:17:49 PM
"You invest money and professional traders earn for you 80% profit within 60 days on exchange rate fluctuations of Bitcoin
Multiply your money with guaranty. Start receiving your income every day right now"

What's hilarious is that I wasn't the one who put the emphasis on their terribly spelled "guaranty" in green, they did on their site (https://btcsmart.net/)

What's even more hilarious is that I found out about their site while observing a recent scammer's blockchain wallet (https://blockchain.info/address/1BaqXw9tWkcQvjqeQTzk7beUfF4NZURZtv) (CryptcoMiner) to calculate just how much profit they made.

There are always people who fall into scammers traps, even if the scam is too huge to be unseen.

Definitely don't.  When you hear guarantee (particularly spelled as they did), be skeptical. And very careful.

I would certainly recommend against doing this. Crypto miner was certainly a scam as they apparently ran away with "investor" funds recently. Other sites that claim to offer similar returns will likely run away in a similar fashion once they trick enough people into "investing"

It would be more hilarious if people hadn't been being scammed for their coins.  Hopefully people get a clue and don't fall for it any further.

I will try soon.

If the deal seems to good to be true, it most likely is..

Some people think they are taking a calculated risk,  :)

A calculated risk at an HYIP is a game you can't win in the long run. They are by their very nature unpredictable and take a huge house edge effectively since they can run at any time.

The cryptominer ponzi was not a calculated risk. It was clearly a ponzi which was bound to eventually crash and burn. What they were doing was gambling that the ponzi would not collapse before they would earn a profit.

This is why it is a bad idea to avoid ponzis and HYIPs. They are not fair, and it is difficult/impossible to predict as to when the owner of the site is going to run away with the money "invested" with them.

It is also difficult to determine if a ponzi/HYIP is going to last a long as possible (until it can no longer pay investors) or if the site owner is going to try to build up the money "invested" with them to a certain amount and then run away.
