you can only know once you have been scammed...or other ones have...
And it is not the warnings which will help here because noboddy can know it before someone is scammed.

Lack of information, unrealistic gains too good to be truth are pretty much best indicators someone want to scam you. Something "important" to download from site is another sign. Do some researches before deposit anything anywhere.

Never heard of anyone getting scammed or his bitcoins getting stolen for downloading some staff from a site but yeah, it might happen that they give you a keylogger and then they hack into your wallet and steal your bitcoins but it does not happen often, but as you said lack of information is mostly the reason why people get scammed.

It happens all the time. Just because you don't hear about it doesn't mean it doesn't happen a lot, every single day. People on this forum always want you to add them to Skype so they can send something to you and they'll have access to your computer (and your private keys).

Thats why you should not be open for skype chat if those people who offered you some service or invesment is not trusted well im this furom nor in outside of it, we should be carefull since there are so many lazy acts on here and better to be vigilant so we dont be sorry if they will hit us, scammers are making inovative ways to deprived us and its our obligation to safeguard our money.


you can only know once you have been scammed...or other ones have...
And it is not the warnings which will help here because noboddy can know it before someone is scammed.

Actually their is a certain indicator if the site well going to scam their investors and those are big promose and to good to be true give backs if they put up some huge invest at their site and it is proven that is their front and turn scam when investors bait that.

Also main factor is website's location, you can view reviews about that website and about that company which is behind that website. Another mainc factor is, what website is offering us. If offer is something similar of unbelievable deals, than don't risk your money because this types of websites are mostly scam. This is whole pschycology.

I think the best moment in which you know that you've been lied by someone is when something too good to be true is being promised to you. For example, a cloud mining website promises ultra high profits in an extremely short time compared to mining with your own mining rigs. Such websites are often scams because nobody would like to offer you such things without profiting off it too.

So you believe that because I offer without profit for my self...I'm a scammer?
My profit is the fun offering you something...
My fun is certainly more worth that the 20000 satoshi I daily offer...

Just look at your trust many gave you a red trust. Stop promoting your scam investment scheme and stop encouraging people to use your system because does trust rating given by DT2 users to you are enough already to say that your a scammer and encouraging people to give you money instead of living alone and legally, you are just begging people for money.

You are not only a full member but as well a full wrong  full member.

I do not encourage people to use my system...I just talk about if something wrong is said about systems.
And you are wrong twice because I do not beg for money...I offer money...it is not the same...it's even just the opposite.
You are wrong because you talk about something you do not know...

How could I know when they are trying to scam me? In general, how do I know if a MM site is trusted?
Most commonly scam sites are those who offers a huge advantage to a person whose interested to invest money on them. Usually in scam site, you could see that the number of members in their site is low. Also, if they aren't active or doesn't known in a forum, then that site could be  scam.

That is truly the common site doings and it indicates that they will run off, giving such huge profits is totally shaddy and if site will suddenly drop that promo well it is the precious time for us to run so we will not became their victims and also we need to leave the hyip investments since there are no true business behind them and it is been build up to scam people and never ever can give us good profits in return.

Yeah, it's basically to know a scam sites are those that are too big to provide a profit and also those who provide a facility which if counted much larger. It's all one of the things that ought to be on the suspect and sought more information, other things are those which give an advantage to the standard but have a thing that's not clear origin they get an advantage in the investment

Promising high returns which truly indicates a scam because no investments on this planet will give you that  kind of offer which means those sites are jsut showing off good rates on most cases newbie do fall for this kind of investments because they dont have  knowledge with this kind of sites but for those who are experienced enough they are already aware and dont tend to invest anymore on this  sites.

Unrealistic gains are one of the easiest factors to see on a scam website. Simply use a compound interest calculator to realize that many websites out there are offering profits that are the dream of any investor, but that in the end can become a big nightmare.

Yes those factors are the best way to know if a site tries to scam you. And also know where they are getting their profit.

So if the profit they will give you comes from the people who will also scam them, then that's a very suspicious move.

Just stay away from them and that will surely give you an headache.

But in my opinion too, a well planned scam are usually could be identified before we are using their services and we could avoid them completely.
But when a very good services turning into scam, most of the people do fail to smell them. If it accidentally becomes scam like due to any unexpected hacking or any other reason, then we do not have any other go other than suffering.

So this  means all investments do have risk on losing your money even if you use the most reputable website or services chances of lossing money is still there. The difference between a reputable and a scam they usually last on a short period of time only and it depends on the knowledge on a certain person because if you are already experienced enough you could able to tell directly which is a scam or not but for those total newbies then chances of being scammed is high.

I usually have sure about when the website is going to turn into a scam or when it is, when the admin makes insane promotions, as well when they start asking for money for their projects, in the general if someone contact me just because i had invested 0,05btc or above ammounts i just moove out my coins. The last time i had invested 1 bitcoin, the admin went off for 1 week the result were i had withdraw all my investement, and some days after the website becamed scam, i had look that admin made my withdraw, i had lost on those something like 0,50 btc earnings, but i had roi.

I agree, I think that is just the best argument and rule you can use its simply and easy to explain and mostly right 9 of the 10 times.

I am writing about the sites where you have to make a deposit before buy and the site offers to act as a MM in deals.

How could I know when they are trying to scam me? In general, how do I know if a MM site is trusted?

Dude ive been here long enough to know that shit a mile away. I will not lie I have been scammed out of a total of about $250 but I was new and the site was really well done also I made a moronic mistake of sending my funds to a scam site thinking I won't invest it all only a bit and send the rest back. Lol obviously we all know what happened next. I could not draw it didn't even appear opin my account and I realize how stupid I was. The thing is I had just come back from making transactions at a legit site. So I had trust mode on. So I lesrnt to never go from a legit site to a shady or even slightly suspicuos site since you might forget they a scam and despite by mistake.

Anyway I kind feel like I'm a professional bs finder now lol. But really it is not so hard. Most struggle with their gut but trust your gut its almost always right but its not easy to trust your gut I too am victim to that. Just use your head. MM is a scam bs ponzi wrapped up in whatever bs lies and chocolate candy ass frosting. Looks good but bite in and you break your damn teeth.
