Once again Almeria is a very troublesome club for a top club, previously Girona had to settle for a draw, and now Real Madrid are forced to trail by 2 goals before they can equalize in the second half. Real Madrid did control the game, but Almeria managed to make Real Madrid difficult, especially in the first half. In fact, they could have taken better advantage of opportunities, practically they had no chances in the first half apart from 2 opportunities which they immediately converted into goals.
In less than 10 minutes the match was over, the score was still tied at 2-2. Real Madrid continues to look for ways to dismantle the Almeria defnse in search of 1 additional goal to enable them to win. It's not easy because Almeria is now focusing on defense to maintain their lead, will Real Madrid suffer the same fate as Girona? if yes it is an advantage for Girona.

An exciting 17 minutes of injury time. Real Madrid on full attack as Almeria defends with all they can. Real Madrid fans were so much upset at the end of first half but Real Madrid is a team that can turn things over anytime. A penalty and an goal from Vinicius, they were back in game.
And it was Carvajal that scored the winning goal, a draw against the, in line for relegation team of Almeria would have been very bad thing for Real Madrid, An easy 1 point lost at home ground. They finally saved their pride on injury time santiago bernabeu. It's one of the most memorable comeback for Real Madrid this season.
This Match against the bottom team in league would definitely be among Real Madrid most difficult game this, the last goal by Carvajal settled everything while Almeria continues to search for their first league win this season. The first half was totally dissappointing for Real Madrid Especially after their 4 goals to 2 lost to Aletico Madrid in Copa dey rey during the week but its good to see the team fighting spirit today to come from a 2 goal down to get all 3 points, Though we can say this was somehow a lucky win for Real Madrid.

Real Madrid will be without Jude in their next match after both him and Carvajal were book for the winning goal celebrations but let's see how Real Madrid fair without in the next match, while I guess Lunin lost his place after his performance against Atletico Madrid, Kepa still didn't do better today and I don't think Rodrygo should be starting matches at Real Madrid's because I always see him as the super sub. Also I think Real Madrid really needs to work on their defense, in two games now its becoming worst.

If you are worried about the money you are about to lose, you shouldn't be gambling in the first place, let alone having patience... Gambling is not about making big money, it is about having fun. If you see gambling as a job, sooner or later you will lose your patience anyway it is because you think you are working when you are gambling. What does a man who works for money want, if he wants to make more money? He will want to work more. In this situation he will want to gamble more. It is a big trap.
It's really not good to gamble by worrying about losing the capital we use in gambling. We won't be able to focus on the game and also enjoy the games we play. If we think of gambling as a place to make money, of course it will be very difficult for us to enjoy it. the game and we only think about winning so that the capital we bring to gamble easily runs out and we don't enjoy the game.

When gambling, it is very necessary to be able to control our emotions so that we don't play greedily so that we can easily lose the games we play. When we gamble frequently, we will certainly have financial problems that cannot meet our own needs.

Patience only elongates the time required for some certain factors like cash to finish. Gamblers have many things to bother about, and amongst it include emotional trauma or psychological disorder. With patience, these things can be reduced, and gradually fade away. But, in different contexts one would think of having patience, with his big wins. That only gets the gambler into a bigger trouble. As he may not have been utilizing the need for being patience, which has to do with every gambling factor. Workers have patience waiting for their pay day, but gambling is not a work, as mindrust said. Considering it as an occupation only makes the process difficult for the gambler. He'd be better off, gambling with the need to expand his thinking horizon. Other than as a means to increasing his bank account, as the dream may not be achieved.

Gambling offers lots of promising possibilities that money shouldn't be the priority of any gambler. If treated as it should, gambling would uplift the thoughts of the gambler, and he'd make good life decisions. We all know that life has some coloration with gambling, and at some point, in a real-life situation that needs two options, we can use our gambling skill to dissolve the dispute. Neglecting for the sake of money the good aspect of gambling and all profitable knowledge it has to offer; the player would be easily addicted due to anxiety. Because in gambling money is not assured. The person won't be satisfied gambling and not meeting up with his goals of earning huge money. Aside that, with patience the gambler if serious and dedicated to learning good gambling strategy, would learn easily with lesser troubles.
Truly gambling should be done for fun but in reality it's far from it, alot of people have depend on it as source of income while others as a means of getting rich quickly which is far from it and alot of people have suffered from it and most times ruin their lives then blame it on gambling or something else instead of accepting their false view on it.

The fact is no one should be sad about this issue of early cashout since we have seen were this has been excellent decision and other time, such as Op experience a regretful decision but the truth is, this is better for risk management. Remember this is like greed, most times we win, we regret not staking more while in the next one when we stake much more we likely lose it. Its gambling don't regret it, if you win more or less than expected be grateful while if you lost don't worry much about it.

Although this country doesn't encourage education but there is nothing like being educated. If you consider how graduates dey suffer within the country, one will prefer a legendary on the forum. Our government just make things worth by the day. No employment nor encouragement for graduates.
Hey man don't be naive as Op, there's nothing to compare about being a graduate vs being a legendary member in this Forum.
Education is highly important and I don't think Satoshi would have been able to solve the problem that was existing over a decade in the invention of Blockchain technology when he created Bitcoin, if he didn't have some level of Educational background including all the famous contributors to Bitcoin like Hal Finney and others even till this present time.


One thing most people fail to get that, once you rank up or at the top of rank (legendary) then joining campaign is easy but the hard truth is that It's far from that, there are alot of legendary in this Forum who will even grateful for a full member position but still yet they are not being accepted in it since they are not a good poster but some who is grounded in education can easily excel here or any other forum.

Note one thing, it does not matter the course you study in the university, if you find a way to monetize what you study in school then is all good since there are still students who has Agricultural and educational degrees living and earning better with that degree than others who has medical and engineering degrees like medicine and surgery and petroleum engineering.

Question: would she be so disheartened and mad as this if the son had won the bet on a multi million price?
Happy and Sad since no Mother will ever be proud of their child stealing from them even if the child wins millions.

Quote
Dear fellows, let's assume you are the mom, what would be your state of mind on this context?
I will be disheartened and disappointed but I will not take the same step as this woman since I know that the only reason one will steal to gamble is when they are addicted to eat and will support him in every ways possible for him to be free from it

Now, the mum is calling on everyone she could to intervene, discipline the child and force him to provide the money in any means he can without the concern of how he could refund the money.
No matter how pained she may be I don't think this is the right approach, though I support disciplinary measures but this is not of them, why will she not care about the way her son payback her money and there is an higher chance that he will steal or bet again in order to get the money back which actually should be avoided

While some individuals get the actual view of privacy and security others have a misconception about it, thinking that in order to be privacy and security free is to totallt quit the internet or create a virtual hero for themselves which is somehow true but even living in the physical re (offline) world doesn`t mean you are free from being watch except you want to into seclusions.
 Can we then now say there is no need to be privacy and security cautious because of this fact? NO, we have to be highly caytious of our privacy and security especially online in order not to be victim of data breach that can lead to identity theft or any kind of scam online especially malware and phishing scam and at least have some control of how our data is being use online.
 
 There are alot of things we do online that requires certain of our data`s, which seems like we are really in need of and we may have no alternative than use them but we have to know the risk involve in giving them these data`s, if it really worth the risk then we can opt for it or simply forget it, if it don`t. This is among the reason we have to be knowledgeble in privacy and security, here are some basic things we need to know if it worth the risk for us :

What's a similar case that you're in that made you regret that you learned gambling?
I sold my laptop that was damaged to gamble, instead for me to repair it. I sold my home theater to gamble and I lost the money. I used my finally year school fees to gamble but my dad gave me another money for school fee. I gambled with the money my dad kept with me because he trusted me, I lost it and I felt like killing myself, but I was coward to do it. I was addicted for five years since 2014 to 2019.
Your Dad really did help you alot, Thank God you are out of it now.

I'm thankful that I have never been addicted to gambling and will never be. I started gambling 2022 and then stopped that same year because around September 2022, I literally use the last money my account for betting and I lost it and then literally became broke throughout the whole month to the point of not having money for Internet subscription and the fact was that I couldn't tell anyone about it. Though in 2023 I came back, through influence of some peers but this time I don't put high hopes on gambling and now stick with this motto: small stake with high odds while I also not betting often

The striker issue has been mounting for Arsenal for a while now, but the transfer market is not that good right now. I wonder what they could and should even do in this market. Any ambitious club that is still playing in all competitions won't let any of their good strikers leave the club and those that are available are either sitting on the bench most of the time or would not be of high quality enough to improve Arsenal's squad. Increasing the team's quality during the winter is complicated. Arsenal could improve the depth of their squad but they can't do that much about the rest. This would require another attempt when it is summer, but by then they better make sure to have qualified for the Champions League again...
The striker issue at Arsenal is undoubtedly a pressing concern, and there is no available option in the market that meet Arsenal's desired quality, and clubs are reluctant to part ways with their key strikers mid-season. Arsenal might explore loan deals for promising strikers who are currently on the fringes at other clubs. This could offer a short-term solution without having to make a long-term commitment or disrupt the harmony of a top-performing squad. Hungry strikers looking for more playing time might be more willing to move, and Arsenal has a history of nurturing young talents.

Mikel Arteta could explore tactical adjustments that maximize the existing squad's potential. Utilizing midfielders in advanced roles or adopting a system that doesn't rely heavily on a traditional striker could be temporary solutions while waiting for a more opportune transfer window. Leveraging advanced scouting techniques and analytics can help identify undervalued or underused strikers who may not be on the radar of other top clubs. This data-driven approach could unearth hidden gems in the market.

It's quite ironic that we have been discussing the striker problem and what a pressing concern it is and now they finally do what they are supposed to do against inferior opponents if they still want to keep their dream of the Premier League trophy alive. A staggering 5-0 win against Crystal Palace and they had an impressive efficiency today. Six shots on target and five goals, that's an 83% conversion rate of shots on target into goals! Wink Now they could ask us critics whether we still have any questions. Tongue

But for how long will they be able to maintain that momentum? Is it one of these exceptions and in the next game against Nottingham Forest away from home they will have the same issues again? I think this game should build some momentum for them but we know Arsenal too good now and I think it could be both against Nottingham, a catastrophic game with low or no efficiency or maybe another staggering win.
Arsenal was pretty amazing in this game with 6 shots on target with 5 goals, amazing indeed, this is a proof that Arsenal main issue is not about getting a striker but to be consistent which is the reason I will always say they are not among the title contenders this season, with a squad like Arsenal should be doing just fine but the hard truth is that they have not been able to keep such form for long but now that Liverpool are now facing injury crisis and Man City becoming better let's see if they can do any better competing with these team now but I doubt
590  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: January 19, 2024, 08:14:28 AM
Manchester City are certainly very happy to hear this news and hope that Mohammed Salah will be absent for quite a long time. They can more easily take advantage of Liverpool's current situation and at any time can displace Liverpool at the top of the standings. De Bruyne's return is an improvement in performance for Manchester City and the absence of Mohammed Salah will be a disaster for Liverpool.
Salah's predicted injury is a hamstring injury. I think it won't be too serious. In the short term, the Egyptian team will be directly affected if Salah is absent. As for Liverpool, their schedule this January is not too heavy, they only have to play one match in the Premier League against Bournemouth.
That's why Liverpool can completely give Salah the right to rest in the next few weeks if he is unfortunately injured. The Premier League championship race still has a long way to go. This is just a temporary shortfall for Liverpool. Mancity should not be too hasty to rejoice and lose focus.
But the problem is that there is no further confirmation on how long Salah will be absent from all competitions. Maybe it could be said that competing with Liverpool will be on time, but playing for Egypt at AFCON seems to have ended his hopes. Moreover, currently Egypt has only won 2 draws from 2 matches which makes them far behind from the main position in the group.

Things like this really drain his energy and thoughts because for Salah, both Egypt and Liverpool really need their role so that his team doesn't experience the slightest decline. It is certain that Salah will be fully rested and when he returns to Liverpool he will not be forced to play until his injury is completely healed and his body is fit again. Manchester City will take advantage of Salah's absence to continue their victory and Liverpool must be more alert in the next match because they are very vulnerable to losing points.
Salah injury will bring more worries to Liverpool and Egypt while his National team are already in a difficult place, Liverpool has to find a way to play excellently without Salah this period, since Man City star man is back and theirs is out, its depends on the team fighting spirit if they will be able to overcome this and remain top of league even after his return.

Liverpool and Manchester City will be very difficult opponents to beat, so Arsenal will have to work well as a team to get the win.
Arsenal need a run of victories to get themselves feeling like title contenders again, their morale has dropped a little but it is still early enough to fix things. The thing is, the level of competition in the EPL is elite and the top teams have to be at their best to compete for the title, Arsenal definitely know this from their experience last season and how they failed to keep up with the pace of City at the top and in the end failed to win the title after leading the standings for so long. Liverpool and City might turn it into a two horse race if Arsenal don't wake up, and it'd be another disappointing season for the gunners.
I would like to be wrong in excluding Arsenal from the league contenders now but I don't think so because even if they start winning almost all their next matches what's the chance City will drop points especially with the return of KDB but I guess Liverpool may do because of the recent Salah injury but it will still be difficult for them to be among the title contenders and they also would be weary of spurs since James Madding is returning soon

Arsenal have won just 1 game out of their last 5 games played and things are going to look bad for Arsenal if they are not able to gain points soon to maintain as one of the top 4 teams on the table. Crystal Palace will not be an easy team to beat with Roy Hodgson leading them but I think since Arsenal will have the privilege to play this upcoming match at their home stadium, Arsenal should stand a high chance to earn 3 points from the hands of Crystal Palace at the final whistle.
Don't worry, I'm sure Arsenal will win. They've suffered lose streaks, so all the players must be motivated to win especially Crystal Palace is just a mediocre club. Crystal Palace just lost against Everton yesterday, so they should be lack of stamina.

Even though Arsenal's performance is declining, but Crystal Palace is worse than Arsenal. Unfortunately the match is not worth to bet, the odds is too low and it's full of uncertainty.
That should be the case because Arsenal's quality is much better than Crystal Palace, despite Arsenal's poor performance in the last few matches, but I also have confidence that they will be able to recover in this match.
Precisely because Crystal Palace does not have strength comparable to Arsenal, Arsenal's winning percentage is quite large and it is worth betting on, especially since Arsenal will be playing at home, of course they have a big possibility of winning this match with a score of more than 1 goal.
Crystal Palace will not be taking this match likely since they are not out of the relegation fight but it will be hard to win against Arsenal, except Arsenal are unlucky or act inconsistent like they usually do but still yet I don't think Arsenal will lose this game.


I know the EPL title is usually decided in the second half of the season. Manchester city and Liverpool are the most consistent teams currently but I don’t think we should write off Arsenal because they have lost just 2 consecutive games. The season is still young and anything can happen. We saw how Arsenal were on top of the league table for a very long period of time last season, that everybody thought they were going to be crowned champions. But so many things can go wrong in the game of sports; injuries, suspensions and point deductions.

Injury to key players might affect the overall performance of a team and it was evident in this Manchester city team as they were dropping points without their star men.
It’s very possible that any of these teams will drop points before the end of the season and Arsenal will get their way back to the top.
Arsenal are already out of the title race to me they can't fight with their inconsistency especially in the beginning of the year when Man City is usually at peak and with the addition of Kdb, we already a huge change in Man City performance and when Haaland returned Liverpool will be hoping not to drop points in order to win the league

So true, de bruyne has magic to make city played very well even in only a half of game. We have seen that how big his contribution even when he was playing from the bench. Manchester city is just getting better and better. There are so many people are aware about this too.
Manchester city is always cooking it. I can expect city to be as good as last season once haaland and stones will be there. We are only waiting the recovery of haaland which is not time consuming like de bruyne.

Pep has been also telling us if haaland is likely to comback again next month. The hype for manchester city will be much bigger if haaland will rejoin in the club again. The chance to win the UCL in a row becomes even bigger too.
Liverpool needs to lost some points to make city to go up again. It's cuased by manchester city will never able to surpass liverpool if klopp's squad keeps get good result in EPL. The club needs to miss some matches.


Yes, De Bruyne is like the most important part of Manchester City because he has almost the same intelligence as Haaland and even though De Bruyne is only a midfielder, his talent for finishing is always precise and on the one hand De Bruyne is one of the players who has strong chemistry with Haaland So the last few matches without the presence of these two players made Manchester City look bad.
After De Bruyne returned everything got better and we are just waiting for the happy news after Haaland arrives and we will look again at the competition for first place and I am sure that the return of Haaland and De Bruyne can get rid of Liverpool and can even have a big chance again to get the title in the champions league .
Let's be Frank, KDB look like Haaland missing rib at Man City  Cheesy
I won't be surprised if Haaland bag an hat trick in the game both of them will play after his return since he is such an hungry player for goals and needs more for a player of his calibre.

After De Bruyne returned everything got better and we are just waiting for the happy news after Haaland arrives and we will look again at the competition for first place and I am sure that the return of Haaland and De Bruyne can get rid of Liverpool and can even have a big chance again to get the title in the champions league .
Liverpool will be having the hit now and of they can continue to be consistent and avoid losing or drawing matches then it's all good for them though this won't be easy but if they really want to win the league title, this is want they need because as it seems City are no longer sleeping or struggling while Arsenal has already lost the race to me

Factors like ETF may make the bull to come while others, later than expected but the bull may likely come around ending of the year or 2025.

Who is a possible Replacement for Xavi: 
There is some news on social media. It seems that if the Barcelona president sacks Xavi at the end of the season, who will be the possible Replacement? According to my research, there are 3 buddy's that are in charge of coaching for Barcelona. The first is Mikel Arteta, who is still under contract with English side Arsenal; the second is Rafa Márquez, who is currently FC Barcelona Atlètic head coach; and the third is something special for Barcelona because he was the heart of fans and the mastermind of the tactics, Gerrard Pique, who recently announced that he will become a coach. So after all of that, I conclude that Gerard Pique will be good for Barcelona if he gets a chance to prove himself because he has quite a high IQ in terms of tactics and game play. So if the Barcelona president sacked Xavi at the end of the season, I think Joan Laporta's need to bring Gerard Pique as the new Coach of Barcelona is because Xavi is not doing well.
 
Besides Gerard pique Whatever Mikel Arteta or Rafa Marquez is, both are also looking good, but I think Gerard Pique is the only player who can solve the missing puzzle for Barcelona because he has such a good understanding of transfers and knows who is appropriate or inappropriate for Barcelona in terms of tactics. But anyway, let's see what happens next. Is Barcelona really going to bring him or not? Share your opinion with us, guys.

Arteta, Barca must really have fallen what difference does this make?
Actually I think they should continue to stick with Xavi at least a season or 2 more and see how Gerard pique will fair in his coaching career, since we have seen alot of stars failing to perform well as coach after retirement while Xavi is even among the most excellent. Arteta should not be an option for Barcelona what has he achieved Xavi has got the league while Arteta best season , which was last season got nothing. Xavi main issue this season has been injury, they shouldn't compare themselves to Real Madrid especially and just focus on overcoming all their main struggle which is the injuries and finance.
597  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Social engineering a risk to security on: January 17, 2024, 03:58:54 AM
Now what brought about my research on social engineering was a method called sim Jacking.

Sim Swapping
To be honest i never knew it was possible to gain a person 2FA code without having access to the sim. I have always be paranoid with leaving my Mobile number online and this made me affirmed by decision. KYC is dangerous in the hands of reputable platforms but more so in individuals hands. Binance p2p merchant (some) usually ask for their customers number and this number can make one vulnerable to sim swapping attack.
Hackers are one of the smartest internet users hence knows how to get connections to different network providers. Sim jacking or sim hijacking is a very popular way hackers use to defraud people, it has existed for a long time now and I have been discussed in diverse ways here in the forum. One thing I know about this scam is that now there don't need to get in contact with you before they do there things, they only need to know your phone number and boom they can even clone it to a genuine sim card that can implement phones calls too that where it gets more scary.

I have got to know that no where is really safe but we can try as much as we can to get the maximum safety we can, Like using the above suggested pattern to get you 2FA messages.
Most sim swapping are common to those who have good influence, well known people (celebrities). this also an event that took place around Feb 10 2021 sim swapping case, a group of fraudsters stole $100 million in cryptocurrencies. SIM Swappers Stole $100 Million from ‘Well-Known Influencers’ Before Getting Arrested, Authorities Say

And also there's another related on how a woman loses her life saving in sim swapping, this is the link to the short story NBC 6 South Floridahttps://www.nbcmiami.com › woma...Woman Loses Life Savings in SIM Swap Scam

Many people are used to been protected by the government not knowing they can only really rely on themselves.

While, Sim port scam can affects anyone who is not cautious of it and these hackers will definitely go for those who they know are rich or any other depending on their goal because we saw how the SEC X (Twitter) was hacked and it must be really shameful for them to fall into such scam but I guess we can saw alot of individuals including top figure fail to be cautious about this scam.

I know you may think I don't have enough money, I'm not influencer or any top figure in the society, they won't be interested in me and so may not be cautious of the sensitivity of your data share online or try to use any of such protective measures, I did be Frank, they are still interested in you at least for your money because imagine $100 from 100 persons that's ($10k), cumulatively they will still be making it, after all when they can't get the big fish they will go for smaller ones.

Truth is that Everton have performed well this season and if not for financial fair play point deduction, the club side will be battling for an Europa league spot at this stage of the Campaignl
Even with those 10 points, they would currently be at 12th place in the league table, so pretty far from Europa League.
They have fairly good defence with only 28 goals lost, but they have no attacking power and that's their main problem. They need to take more risks and and aim for wins not draws. Their current position is not pretty, they have only 1 point advantage over Luton, but Luton have one less game played and they will be highly motivated to escape from the red zone.
Burnley and Sheffield are already doomed.

Despite losing 10 points, Everton's performance has been quite good this season. However, Everton's performance in the last four matches was very poor. However, in the matches Everton played against the big teams of the Premier League. The team lost against City, Tottenham and Wolves. However, Everton have managed to share points with Aston Villa, who have been in great form this season. Everton can still stay away from the relegation zone after losing 10 points. Because the defense of this team is relatively good. They conceded 28 goals. I would say Everton's defense is better than Manchester United, Tottenham and Chelsea. Everton have conceded fewer goals than these three giant teams. I think we will see Everton in 12th/13th position in the points table at the end of the season.
I support you on this Everton really have a better defence than these team and one key thing is that most people fail to realise that Pickford is really a good goalkeeper better than Onana and Sanchez at Chelsea to me but the fight for relegation is fierce for Luton and Everton, I really would have preferred both stayed but this chance are too slim though there are still enough matches for them to fight for this. While in regarding both team Everton as a better chance in remaining in the Epl.

The whole Manchester city players and fans are happy to see him return to the team. I think De Bruyne's return makes Manchester City title favorites. He’s a dangerous guy on a good day. Few players in world football truly have the talent to take your breath away, but there's no doubt Kevin De Bruyne is one of them.
Long absent due to injury but his presence immediately brought a big influence on the team, really that was an extraordinary thing.
Kevin De Bruyne is really a talented player and as far as In he has proven many things to the world.
The condition of the Manchester City team was a little shaken but with the recovery of Kevin De Bruyne, no one doubted that the Manchester City team would be stronger.
Regarding the favorment in winning the title, it has been since the start of the season but the return of Kevin De Bruyne provides far more energy.
Manchester City can always just fine without Haaland but their midfield especially KDB and Rodri as always been their backbone and this is the reason I will continue to say in order for Liverpool to win the league they have to be really consistent and avoid losing points since we know City are always at their best beginning of the year till season ends, which we can say it's an actual consistency that as given their Epl dominance

The phrase, Ignorance is bliss should be changed to ignorance is hell especially relating to finance, sad truth that there would still be individuals who would fall for this scam but I guess they would be totally ashamed after this, since they fail to realise that wallet is similar to their bank account and so how many of them would allow a total stranger to create a bank account for them or at least send their account balance to a stranger.

This scam is actually dangerous, since after sending a screenshot of the wallets to the scammer even if the person then understands that he/she is about to be scammed and end contact with the scammer, if the amount of coins in the wallet is enticing to the scammer, they scammer may find a way of Robbing such individual offline since its social media, getting details of such individual will be easier. The best is to totally avoid it.

Almost all the time we talk and teach about how people can avoid being scammed by these scammers and how they can lower their greed and get it in the back of their minds that there is no free money anywhere on the internet and crypto-currency investment can't just turn you wealthy over night.
Sad truth but the hype of getting the next Meme coins/tokens like Shiba Inu, Pepe, Baby doge and their likes has made alot broke rather rich if only they could avoid the hype from all these social media and invest in bitcoin.

if you go through the comments sections their are so many people who are so interested in this.

The people in the comments might also be part of the scam. In scams like this, the scammer usually play different roles, they have different accounts which are used to signify interest in the comments and also to post testimonies of how successful they have become because they trusted so and so platform or trader.
 This is literally true and I don't think any scam in this category will succeed without having team of such doing this kind of background and that's why not all reviews especially on social media are to be trusted, we have to be really cautious of were we get reviews or financial advice.
