Conclusion
Scammers are everywhere, there are people waiting in the shadows for you to fall for their game. Do your own research before investing and take a break talk to someone when you feel pressured to invest in something you're not sure of. Be careful of your personal data you upload online the internet is a global village you never know who's watching or stealing your identity.

 Guys these days scammers are pushing stolen funds to exchanges and once you pay, exchanges freeze your accounts. Be mindful who you are buying bulk coins from. Overly cheap coins and bulk coins with no sources too sometimes has egbese. I can’t start dropping screenshots or proofs of that. Try to use decentralized exchanges if you receive coins on exchanges. In the quest to make  10k profit, I pray we don’t pay 5m debt

The journey to become rich through Bitcoin is not an easy task at all. There are different challenges one will come across along the way. It so hard for the category of persons who are not financially buryant , especially when volatility takes place in the market, it's as if all hope is gone, you don't even know where to start from.
I come to think if investing in Bitcoin is only for  people who are financially stable, because this set of persons can meet up with the standards to invest Bitcoin which are.
1. Good capital to start with
2. Discipline factor : can invest for a long-term
3. No much panic: when there is volatility

How possible can a broke a broke investor with no good capital become rich in Bitcoin. Is as if Bitcoin is only for the middle and rich class to invest.☹️
There are no ways to get free bitcoin not anymore. There it is. How to become rich in bitcoin...Buy when the price is low Op would you have bought Bitcoin when the price was $500. Its easy to complain and not start. You didn't consider knowledge as a factor on your list. Without knowledge you will only invest blindly and panic when there is a correction in the market.

Op you clearly broke the terms and conditions. You KNEW your country was RESTRICTED from the start. I assume you were using VPN to access the site. And finally got caught. A better approach would have given you more audience and sympathy but blatantly calling a reputable company a scam because of your folly is...well...not a very good idea.

What happened::  
A little back story; we will call the victim X. X met this beautiful on a telegram group(non crypto related btw) they got talking. After chatting for some days and exchanging pictures she introduces her new friend to an investment opportunity she's been benefiting from. X decides to give it a go
Scammers Website: https://binariumcrypto.com




Amount Scammed: lost $300 btc to this scam believing he would receive his profit if he did as they said.

PM/Chat Logs:













Additional Notes:
X invested only $80 which is a lot in his country. Few hours after investing X was asked to pay $122 to verify his account. The scammers did not bother for kyc all they were interested in was the money. When he refused to pay, he was blocked. This was when X realized he was being scammed.

Bitcoin is king. Bitcoin is more stable than alt coins, the prices of alts are dependent on Bitcoin a crash in btc price results in crashes in alts and if bitcoin rises so those alts. But it's also a good idea to diversify one's portfolio for example I made more gains holding eth. Most alts are only good for scalping for short term gains

PastorNick you created a account two days ago and you're already providing data to defend or maybe advise a member. You constructed the table so well I would say you are an alt and not  a newbie. I'm giving you a merit because I like the table and I checked your post history you're not a spammer. Good work if you're sincerely a newbie

I did not know that there is a website for analysis on merit. I just published here what I saw with my black and white eyes. And I was surprised to see so much.
Whatever it is, I am now waiting to see the new record for a streak of 54+ days.
You can also use https://bpip.org/ to gather such information from the forum. Type the name of the user you want to search on the + icon and the merit history, awards, posts, trust feedback comes up. https://bpip.org/ is resourceful search engine. Your eyes will be pleased to see so much Cornia
Btw I think you should edit the image size you posted, the information is not clear and therefore useless. Use this format to adjust image size

2653  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Regulation is needed likewise the law involvement on: August 19, 2021, 06:22:40 AM
Have anyone think about this or am i the only one?

We want to get rid of the government off the faces of crypto space with the use of decentralisation and DeFi projects but this have been hurting us in every way, not wanting government involvement we end up hating centralised projects, oh yea we don't want anyone pipping in our lives and money but this have become the ultimate tool for evil people, even Scammers too


Op there's nothing wrong with decentralization I think I know where you're coming from, in here we believe Bitcoin gives power back to the people so I understand why you would think we want to get rid of the government. No one can't get rid of government because the people are part of the government.
With defi projects scammers find it easier to get their jobs done, you don't have to show your face if you plan to introduce a Dex exchange or a DeFI anyways, it's easier to just say we are decentralized as an excuse  Grin Grin Grin

Scammers have always been there before the creation of Bitcoin. Scams exist only because gullible people fall for it.
2654  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: I want to report crypto currencies stealing, where should i go? on: August 18, 2021, 11:22:12 AM
Op you can report the fraud case to the authorities ( Interpol in this case that is if they will be interested) but you won't have any luck recovering your money. Which I believe recovery of your coins is your primary goal. Imho if you keep chasing you are only going to lose more money in the process. Bitcoin refund scams are popular these days.
2655  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Forum Skills on: August 18, 2021, 09:52:34 AM
For the few months I have been in this forum, I discovered without being told that one really need some digital skills to remain effective and relevant here on the long run. Though, only the knowledge of cryptocurrencies is enough. But someone like me, I am not well knowledgeable about cryptocurrencies, which I know this forum will educate me and has been doing.

When I looked at the service thread, I saw people offering different services of avatar design, signature design, software design etc.

Apart from that, I saw CryptopreneurBrainboss and others managing campaigns and also have own services. I saw DdmrDdmr, LoyceV, Ratimov, Fillippone and others always posting data like number of merits earned, newbies first post, most merit awards, they talk about whitepaper and lots more. I keep wondering how they generate these information. I often wish to join the discussions, but they appear high technical to me . I like being successful in anything I do. Yes, I know success needs commitment and perseverance. Even the aforementioned names have been here for years, hence there enviable knowledge.

Please, is it to early/late for me to start somewhere? I am not that comfortable with only posting and contributing texually here. I need to solve technical problems.
Please, what are the basic steps I will take, what are the basic skills I need now that are not that financial intensive. Because I am still under the trauma and/or defeat of fraud/scam before I joined this forum.

I really need to be a positive energy in this forum in the future. I therefore have to create this thread to get started. I have enough time, apart from being here I don't have things that will take my time offline.

Thank you all.
Op you spend enough time in B&H, you didn't have to create a thread to ask questions you already know the answers to. You mentioned usernames who you think are technical, a simple pm could have given you your answer but you would have missed those merits. I can't say on what premise you were introduced to the forum, your growth is remarkable, you have the required rank to participate in signature campaigns. I think you already know that since you applied in one recently. Like Lovesmayfamilis said you can do whatever you want just don't break the forum rules. Before you devote your entire time to the forum, remember the forum is not a job!
2656  Economy / Gambling discussion / The connection between gambling and addiction behaviours? on: August 18, 2021, 08:57:09 AM
Gambling is staking something of value on a game or event whose result is dependent on chance. Gambling is one of the most insidious of human vices, as it presents the illusion of easy money yet can quickly lead to financial ruin. The odds are never in your favor whether it is poker, blackjack or anything else; gambling is a successful industry because the house always win.
 A study from psychguides.com evaluation shows that and I quote "People with a substance abuse disorder are more likely to have a gambling disorder. Alcohol use disorders are particularly common in people who are diagnosed with a gambling addiction.
Alcohol disorders have been found to have the greatest link to gambling addiction, and alcohol is served at most casinos.
On the flip side, one pattern that is commonly seen among people with a history of alcohol dependence is the development of a gambling problem—even after being in recovery for many years.
Additionally, gamblers may use drugs and alcohol to celebrate a win or to cope with depression after a loss. Some also use it to deal with the guilt and shame associated with gambling.
Gambling and cocaine abuse may occur together as part of a broader antisocial lifestyle. A person who uses cocaine may view gambling as an acceptable method to acquire money to support their drug habit. They might also have increased energy as well as an inflated sense of their gambling skill because of cocaine use and believe that they can’t lose".
Is there a gambling pattern that eventually leads to one of these addictions?

When it has happened? The domain name you added to the post has been placed for sale. When I click the link this was popped to me.
Quote
The owner of slushcoin.com is offering it for sale for an asking price of 795 USD!
Isn't surprising the owner asking only for $795 to hand over the domain? Any site that asks you to make a fresh deposit and upgrade plan for withdrawing your fund is definitely a scam. This isn't new in the internet world. Just don't be greedy.
The returns are too good to be true and in such a short time. These guys don't learn at all. I made a mistake with the domain name https://www.slush-coin.com

Harry Kane is a prolific striker for spurs team be as it may, man City having him as their replacement for kun ageuro will be a boost to the team as Gabriel jesus injury spells as been detrimental to the team in previous seasons. The game will be a thrilling with or without Kane been that it is the first game for Tottenham hotspur. The players have a lot to prove to the new manager likewise same is expected from Manchester City team been the champions of EPL.  But from expectancy we believe Harry move to mancity will be a huge bonus to fortify the team on the quest for Uefa champion league glory.
