I think the only advice i can give you is: do your research.
First, search this forum for reviews, then google some more for reviews.
Lastly, look at the site itself: is the whois info hidden? Do they have an address, is their business number real, is their phonenumber real? Some countries have some sort of organisation for webshops, it's allways a good thing if the shop is accredited.

The fact remains that even the most trusted webshop might scam you... So allways be carefull.

I realise i'm talking about webshops... In your OP you ask for tips if a "site" is a scam or not because you got scammed by HYIP's. To tell you the truth, i think close to 100% of the HYIP's are scams, or will turn scam after a couple of weeks/months/years. This is why i concentrated on other sites... I think it would always be a good idear to stay away from HYIP's

First of all if you want to use ponzis/HYIP you have to take in to consideration a possibility of scam.
"There is no such thing as free lunch" so be aware that 99.9% of those sites are going to rob you.
Now you should check this site before investing www.badbitcoin.org . It should save you some
bucks, dont get greedy m8.

Use some common sense, if it seems like a scam, it probably is a scam. Don't send ANY BitCoin to anyone unless you trust it's service, or the person your sending it to. If you are unsure about a site, or something, feel free to come here and get an opinion on these forums, we'll help you.

my advice, you just stay away from investment sites that are not clear, or stay away from HYIP sites, because everything will end up being a scam. it's better not to invest, this time nothing is really good for investment.

definitely do your research. If anything sounds to good to be
true it probably is.

Use the search box here and search the scam. Chances are someone
has posted about it. Also google it.

do research about the website you want to join in.
But not every info is true.
Some website has good comments, but they scam and run your money.
Some website has bad comments, because some competitors slander them.
So only you can do is do research and make your own decision.
I don't buy HYIP, don't gamble. Just some current deposit and fixed deposit on OXBTC.COM.
I treat it as wallet.

Please be aware that by defaults all HYIP are SCAM (even says so in the name).
Any high return on your investment like 1, 2, 3 % per day or even 10-20-30 % or more monthly etc. is unrealistic and lie.
Experienced users know it very well and they invest in HYIP just money they can afford to loose and cash out their seed money as fast as they can.
After that, that play with rest of money in such HYIP programs.
HYIP are not different than Casino or gambling sites and don't expect that you will find any honest program or admin there.

My suggestion, You can't easy to believe with fantastic offers from a site for you. Usually, some scam site will make a tender can make their victim is interested in their offers. Like you can doubled your bitcoin only with deposit on this site. Take care of this problem to make your bitcoin is secure from scammer.

These are not the only one there are allot of scammers actually on the internet so dont think you are save by using bitcoins because you dont be save at all. The coin is to new wait a couple of years and that problem wont be there anymore.

you're like asking someone to choose a team when you're on sport gambling,the answer is uncertain,just get away from HYIP because it'll only waste your time,effort,and money,most of HYIP only pay those whose investing with small amount nor big amount

Yeah if something feels not right and you think that the person is not acting right then just do not do it. You should only do it when you are 100% comfortable with the situation if not then do not do it.

There is seriously no doubt that you would lose all your money in a HYIP site. A HYIP site by definition is a ponzi scheme, which must collapse sooner or later. Right now they also tend to run away with your money without even trying to prove legitimacy.

Remember that most of the HYIP monitors are rigged as well. They get paid by the HYIP sites to list them.

There's your key word there HYIP, they are truly unpredictable, the only way to know if they are about to  fold or run away with your investment is if you have someone from the inside. Example is the cloudminr.io site, when it is about to collapse there is this guy who all of a sudden started selling his KHS at discounted rate and after a few weeks, cloudmir.io is not accessible anymore.

lessons:
1. if its asking for your funds and promising % profit.. it a scam.
2. if you do a "whois" search and their details are hidden by whois guards or proxy guards... its a scam
3. if you cannot find the real office address or the details they do provide leads to a pobox, drop box, virtual office.. its a scam
4. if you cannot find their "business" registered as a business on any company registers.. its a scam..

overall if you cannot find enough information to locate them to slap them with a wet fish should they scam you.. dont throw them your funds

I DO NOT TRADE OR ACT AS ESCROW ON THIS FORUM EVER.
Please do your own research & respect what is written here as both opinion & information gleaned from experience. many people replying with insults but no on-topic content substance, automatically are 'facepalmed' and yawned at

I think all HYIP sites will turn out to be scam someday, I think HYIP program was chancy. to avoid HYIP scam I think easier, is to not follow any HYIP program. And please keep in mind,just invest your money if that money loss you ready to accept it. Thank you

Like a lot of comments, I would say just avoid such sites altogether. I have had a decent experience, and while some sites might give a short return  most of them won't, and you will lose in the long run.
