How can I improve my earning and reduce the risk of getting scamed?

To improve your earnings you will need to find a job for bitcoin, on the service section of the forum maybe you can search something: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=52.0

Now, to reduce the risk of getting scammed then you should do some good security practices:

1.-Don't use Windows, use linux or mac
2.-Never use the same password for anything
3.-Be careful about who you trust online
4.-If a deal looks tricky then run to the opposite direction
5.-Do it yourself, don't let other users open accounts for you or do thing under your name
6.-If you will join to an ICO, read the white paper and about the team, lets remember 90% of icos end in scam.

And the list could keep going, but most of the point are common sense, so, just be careful.

Pretty much just don't do something stupid. Being cautious and realistic should be enough for you to not get scammed. As to earning though? It depends. We don't have the slightest idea on how you make your money.

1.-Don't use Windows, use linux or mac
I heavily suggest this, though this probably isn't for everyone; as a Linux OS may not work that well on a fresh install without doing any configurations. Might not be the best for the non tech-savvy. To OP: If you're planning on installing Linux, great! But I suggest doing a dual boot instead of erasing your Windows system entirely immediately. If you're using a OSX device though, you're probably fine. Just make sure your device is up to date.

6.-If you will join to an ICO, read the white paper and about the team, lets remember 90% of icos end in scam.
I honestly would go as far as suggesting that OP should prevent investing in ICOs entirely as it's too risky in my opinion.

I think providing services to anyone is the best way as you only receive reward and not losing any or getting scammed by scammers. If I had lots of skills that are good service to someone or to somebody that wanted you skills suited for their project if he/she/they had one.
