A lot of people like to gamble on being that person, who came in early and exited at just the right time to have doubled or tripled their investment. If a site give extraordinary interest rates, well above

the industry standard, you will know that you dealing with some sort of Ponzi / HYIP. If they pay you to get other people to invest and join their scheme... you know you dealing with these people. We

have sites, where scams are listed. --> http://www.badbitcoin.org/

If the offer is too good to be true and the site owner can't explain how he can made a lot of profit it's a Ponzi HYIP scheme.

And if you are in doubt about any site, open a new thread to ask here on bitcointalk forum about it or search on Google more informations about the investiment. Rarely you will find a legit and profitable investiment... Stay away from those 0.1%-2% hourly profit sites, this kind of site doesn't survive for much time.

You can always start researching on the service youre into at the service discussion https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=85.0

See what others experiences are before you get into something, or how they handle things.

Or if you dont see anything there, I would always check the scam accusation: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0

Just avoid investing in all HYIP sites.
I say it from a personal experience.
Dont lose money like I did in the past.

I find it hard to believe that ANY investment site is not a scam. 
They buy cheap website hosting, put up an address, and hope people send them bitcoin. 
Any of the addresses they show that they are sending payments to are probably an address they own, and they move some coins back and forth to show they are making "payments".
What can you do if they don't send you money back? Make a forum post that most people won't ever see.
I wouldn't trust any of these sites.

You need to change the title of this thread. Its very misleading.

Actually, HYIP always ended with scam. So, my tips is don't invest if the HYIP already launch long time ago, invest on HYIP that still fresh/newly open and don't invest big on hyip.

I guess better if you take out from game HYIP.
This game realy can't make your money safe,profit, and get money with so a deal "plan".
HYIP WILL SCAM EVER.

Honestly it all comes down to common sense in most cases.  Does something guarentee a insane return? Or sound to good to be true.  If so chances are it is to good to be true.  Sadly there are things like HYIP and most cloud mining sites that sound great.... but will cause a loss in bitcoins you own in the end.

But just ask yourself if someone could be making X amount with what ever they are peddling... why would they need my money or want share profit with me?  In most cases it is that they are a scam.

They are all scams but if you must use them , get in quickly and leave a week or two afterwards. The way they get you is you first invest and it works then u don't again with more and it works then again and it works then one day it doesn't work and u refieve nothing. They wait till u make a big deposits.

Stay away on hyip / doubler sites.. it is better to invest on cloud mining than  risking your btc on those ponzis.
All doublers/huip are totally scam.

[ObscureBean]

Easy, don't invest in anything, just save your Bitcoins and enjoy the ride to the moon  It doesn't matter how diligent you are with your research before investing, there's always a chance you'll get scammed anyway. No company is too big or too respectable to scam. Of course that doesn't mean you shouldn't invest at all, you just have to be comfortable with taking risks.

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

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.

I put all your advice into consideration. I'll do a research before I invest into something and as much as possible, I'll try to avoid HYIP sites. I'm now starting to learn about the trading industry. Thanks you all.

If a company or coin gives promises that are too good to be true, it is probably a scam.
