Never invest in online companies and only after seeing and visiting their local office only then think about giving any amount of cash to them also they should have a reasonable interest rate offerings.

People now a days who are so desperate of earning money. So some other are taking advantage to them.
Even me was victim of scammers.


You can you suggest how can I prevent from scammers.. Huh Huh Huh Huh
Thanks..
There are some ways to prevent it, the first rule is : never trust anyone, even yourself.
Check someone's trade history, ask about him in some places- if he is not using fake name, they will probably know him, and if he does- then it is prolly a scam (new account right?)
Escrow is very important tool too.

It is not always important or it is not always possible for someone to go and visit the local office of a company before investing it, but some positive responses from some trusted users would be enough all you will need to do is to do some research about the company you are wishing to invest and you will know the status of it.

Figuring out the scammers is really a hard task, because during the early days scammers focused much upon the newbie as they can be convinced easily. But now scenario has changed, scammers try fooling even persons who are much better in online activities with several unexpected tactics.

Sometimes you can figure out scammer from his Webpage - standart template, Web page can be free of charge, without any contact address. Sometimes scammer Webpages also have outdated information.  Wink

And it is always useful to look at the Whois information about the domain name of the site. If the domain has just been registered, it is a warning sign. The recent scam HybridMixer was registered at GoDaddy (cheap Internet domain registrar)...

So if you see something like this:

Quote
Domain Name: hybridmixer.com
Registrar URL: http://www.godaddy.com
Registrant Name: Registration Private
Registrant Organization: Domains By Proxy, LLC
Name Server: NS1.DIGITALOCEAN.COM
Name Server: NS2.DIGITALOCEAN.COM
Name Server: NS3.DIGITALOCEAN.COM
DNSSEC: unsigned

stay away from it at all costs

I think you really are vigilant you can really know if you are being targeted by a scammer or not. Well i have some idea because i also encountered some of them. Since we are in trading, i can identify a scammer if he talking so good like trying to convince you to trade to this one because it is much better or etc. but there is still a lot of ways because as you are learning so as they are also try some new technique.
