Don't trust anyone (avoid shortener link service) maybe it contains malware where they will steal your sensitive stuff.
Make sure you know any original site , because they have many designs with different domain name (this can help you to identify any phising sites)
Yeah many people who use shortern link so others people can not easily recognize the fake sites and to close their domain addresses that are not similar to the domain that they are replicas. to display you might be tricked but for the domain will be obvious. but you have to be careful with a mailer that goes into your email and you have to check the domain. do not believe in the mailer that went into spam dude
I don't know if it would actually help, but whenever I see shortened link from an untrusted source, I use TOR browser and have all my antimalwares and antiviruses on high alert. That way, I feel safe. Or at least I think I am.

Cloud mining sites are usually scam. Avoid them. During transactions, always escrow especially when it is a large tx. Other tips are actually already said by other users.

But , that software don't make you 100% safe , even ruined your device performance.When that software runs on sametime
It's up to you to secure your device with any anti-malware and anti-virus , but "prevent better than cure"

Explore their site first.. most of the sites are giving hourly back with a low cost.. and it could end up to a scam. why would you invest on a site that will return your money for 2 to 6 months with a low %... so just beware of that kind of stuffs.. there are so many ways to have bitcoin on your own.

A good rule of thumb is to completely discard every single Bitcoin 'opportunity' offered to you. That means no cloud mining, no investment schemes, no securities, no lending, and the list goes on and on.

If there is something that comes up, first forget about it, just to be double sure then see if there's a thread on here. Nothing in Bitcoinland worth bothering with fails to show up. Check how moronic the posts are. If there are no threads then it's even more certain to be a scam.

Park your coins somewhere safe under your control. Don't gamble. Don't listen to anyone.
This seems a good rule of thumb when we are a newcomer to every environment including  business environments.

I think if you apply the 'there is no such thing as a free lunch' rule, along with diligence about the things you are investing in, you should be alright. Avoiding outright scams is only half the battle in this space; there are always unknown unknowns like Gox and Cryptsy that pop up. The safest thing you can honestly do is simply keep your coins in your wallet, and hodl.

I think you do not need to invest in hype site because they do not live more than a month if they collect their goal amount they will run brings all your coin, scammer you can prevent that by not giving your trust to the person you want to transact.

How to save our money from a lot of scammer and pishing site'  Huh


 Grin newbie here  Grin

Since I know bitcoin, a simple way to avoid it is to never visit the HYIP sites, cloud mining or other investment. For as long as I know the site as it is a cheat and a thief. Thank you

True, the hype everywhere would surely negatively affect those of us who use it. All website investments that now I trust that all the sites using the system the hype/ponzi. The system will continue to run if there is a victim, and if there are no casualties then the system will stop and is detrimental to everyone

Don't click any suspicious link and use escrow to prevent phishings and scams.

Yes, dont click any suspicious link you are not familiar with. Some scammers are advertising those links on chatroom,troll boxes and once you inputted your username and password, it will go their list and they will use to access your account.Do not put same user name or password when signing up, as they can used it. Do not download any programs whom you didn't know. Use virus scanner on it before running.

For my quote "prevent better than cure" , as i said earlier don't click any suspicious link (and shorten link service) for avoid you for getting virus and malware on your device. And for that software (i don't use any antivirus or anti-malware , just for info)  , if you getting infected with virus , it's hard to cure it even you have up-to-date antivirus/malware (it's happen on some viruses).
