I've been scammed 5BTC from the ponzi scheme aswell. I understand how you must feel, however keep your head up and learn from your mistake and move on. That's what life's about.

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the
subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The
subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

Bitcoin users need to cut on their greed and need to start taking care of their bitcoins. This means that we shouldn't be investing everywhere and with whoever shouts the biggest ROI. Yes I know, we would all want more coins in our wallet so we can maybe even profit a lot down the road while we are shouting how we have made an investment of our lives. But this greed is actually what the scammers are looking for and are taking advantage of.
I am sorry for your loss!

If you are in a country where bitcoin is accepted as a possession such as the UK or the US then you may be able to take a company to court if you have lost enough bitcoin o that you have more to gain then you have to lose. You need to know that the company is still functioning and hasn't gone into liquidation, and that the company have assets that are equal to the amount you placed down.

Any ponzi sites that promise ridiculous returns on bitcoin wagered will always be a scam. There's no such thing as a free lunch especially where bitcoin is concerned. Steer clear of them all is my advice the only winner is the scumbag thieving site owner. I also lost money ages ago on other sites so learned the hard way  . |

Hello buddies, It would be sad story if our bitcoin get scammed.  But it does happen from time to times, as we are all human beings, we are kind of greedy, we all want more bitcoins, and we all want the bitcoin in our wallet growing and growing ... Then, we may get scammed by some online games, get scammed by gambling, get scammed by some investment programs, get scammed by ponzi schemes...etc., we send them our bitcoin base on their promising promises, but after the payment we'll never get their delivery as return ... and we may even get scammed by our best friends as well ... I've been scammed by a ponzi program called Rockwell Partner, I was scammed 5.5 BTC there. I could do nothing expect shouting everywhere it was a scammer. What did you do to fight against the scammers when your bitcoin was scammed? I'm not sorry and it's your fault so quit moaning. |

I don't get scammed because I used trusted services that have been around for a long time and I don't use websites that are too good to be true.

Sorry to hear of your scamming experience. Have to add though you don't have a very good "best friend" if he would scam you out of a lousy $1500! I suggest dropping him lol Also please don't assume everyone will be scammed, 'because they won't' the same get rich quick guys from fiat who get scammed will come get scammed in bitcoin.
A fool and his money will always be parted. Just work and understand nothing comes for free and if something seems to good to be true then it no doubt is. People who carry on with greed and stupidity are the reasons the scammers continue to fight the good fight. Always use escrow.

sorry if you got scammed... but i think you can prevent it in the future,
if you will be careful in the future. before giving or releasing money you need to be sure first,
as in very sure that it is not a scammer or not. you can use google or forums to know it.
hope it will not happen to you again.

Ive been scammed more than twice and the feeling that you worked the money hard or you saved for a year just suddenly disappeared due to the activity of some bad people which you never wanted, is a like a cancer that will break you apart. Especially to you. All i can do is to try to let that to not to happen again, besides you will learn something on it, 5btc is big

If someone has lost lots of money through ponzi schemes they could probably seek legal help in places where bitcoin is not banned! The assets can then be reclaimed by the owner. I would suggest people invest in legit and well know sites such as hashnest.com

..we may get scammed by some online games, get scammed by gambling, get scammed by some investment programs, get scammed by ponzi schemes...etc.
Why do people go anywhere near such nonsense despite the endless reports that these are always scams? Did you check to see if they were a legal, registered business? Why would give access to over $1000 to a group of people you don't even know and without any legal recourse if they just decide to keep the money? |
