How to be a good bitcoin investor to prevent scammed

[Kotone]

For me, to be a good bitcoin investor we need to be a wise person. I had tried some invesment company, they paying or legitimate but in few or short days,weeks or months they will run away; they will not paying anymore.

Tried and tested tips:

1. Invest bitcoin if the company is 0-10 running days.

2. Make sure that the deposits, withdraws and member is increasing.

3. Search for more information about that company.

This is really good tips for those who really interested to start with investment and if you are wise person enough you can follow this tips of yours but sometimes i search for my own good too if the website is really trusted and i can really make deposited after i search and i only deposited or invest once not twice.

If it's too good to be true then it's definitely a scam. If you doubt investing to it, just invest a very small amount from your portfolio like only 5%.  Don't let your emotions get over with you. Just set a maximum percent from your portfolio to invest so either scam or not, you won't lose all your bitcoin easily.

yes that is right to use a small amount but i think it is not still a god idea, because there are so many people who always like to invest a good amount of bitcoin therefore to me always try to use a trusted exchange whiled exchanging bitcoin.

Not always things that are too good are scam. Let me give you a classic example : suppose someone had told you that invest 10$ now and become a millioner after 2 years will you agree ? NO but actually suppose he has talking in investing with bitcoins !!!!
So, always ask the thing they are investing and see why the reason behind their promises.

Yes not everything is a scam but we are talking about hyip/ponzi site based on op's describing. And I must say they are all scams. Yes they are paying but when everybody invest to it, they are all will leave with your money.

Yeah right, any site or user that suggests a curious profit plan without much insight on what they are doing is usually a scam. Investing in things that are known to give profits for example investing in gambling site's bankroll is always a nice idea, since they are proven and just have to invest in the right site then.

Well anything besides Forex or Online Stock brokers you can't really trust any investment schemes online, even if they are low yielding interest. A real investment has no fixed interest issued to them as they are random and it is dependent on how you invested your money on it. Always do a background check of a company you will see that they are not real, for me seeing a referral program is one of the signs a company is fake.

Lol, i say no.  this isn't a good tip, unless you are promiting a HYIP or a Ponzi company and we all know that this company will more likely close in just a matter of weeks or months.  Unless you want to profit with other peoples money and laugh at those poor souls fate this is a good investment for you.  But if you ask me, I would stay away from HYIP and ponzi company.

According to Me It's Not Possible to Prevent Scam By Investing in Hyip Sites Because These Sites Are Made to Scam People and Run Away With Their Money....
And Also Keep In Mind that Some Scammer made this As a Business, So I Suggest You to Stay Away From Hyip Or Any Ponzi Schemes.....

You are right there will not be any escape from HYIP programs after investing with them. I had an experience of investing into a HYIP program, even they their announcing like initial capital amount was withdrawable at any time, I was not able to withdraw even in second day itself. So, it would be better simply avoiding all of them.

Useless just wasting your time for giving a serious feedback for spamming post, He didn't read the general things and the related thing before, I told you if he is just making jokes and I was known with their clear post looks like just searching a post count. say not for the Ponzi and hyip.

When those HYIP sites are being created only to scam, they will start their action even from the day one itself. Most of this kind of sites will never come with reversible payment processors like PayPal or Payza. When there is no protection for your side at least with payment processor, why should you take risk.

it would be better simply avoiding all of them.

But people never listen to any of this kind of suggestions, that is the reason there are a lot of HYIP /Pyramid business keep on coming just with the intentions to scam us.

the only thing that makes HYIP still exist until now beside of people keep blindly investing to them is that some of site didn't blatantly tell that the site is actually HYIP and sometimes those site are recognising themselves as a cloud mining,a new business model,and any else,that's actually confusing so many people

Aside from that, company already established a group of people they called pioneers to spread a word for them.  With the promised of great return in just a short period of time, plus fake testimonials people then lured to take the bait and join HYIP. Of course these people want to earn to so they sponsor a new batch of people,  Until such time when the system cannot pay the people, operation seems legit.

Don't trust in any hyip site it's too risky because after a few days they will run your money as now from my experience try to invest in alt coin investment company and if you want to join in the mining site try to search or explore if it is legit or turning to scam money making this days is very risky for the investor because we didn't know if they will run our money or not.

Haha, look this guy giving hints to invest safe on HYIP schemes.

Nothing of the listed points are true. The site can closes anytime, not necessarily after 10 days. The number of members can increase and one of the member make a Big deposit, so the scheme owner that big amount and go away in the same moment. The company doesn't have informations, because it's a scam company, probably it was created on the last 3 days...

Those hints are fail.

[jack1111]

I do not recommend these sites, but let us be realistic, why there are tens of HYIP pop up every day? If no one is investing, there won't be new sites or at least the number should decrease. I think this kind of sites has a lot of fans who like easy money and always search for new sites to catch the opportunity, even though early investors might lose their money in some cases.

tip 1.
dont invest in anything claiming to make you more bitcoin, simply by handing funds over, without any other real work involved.

tip 2.
if your hearing about it, you are already at the bottom of the pile and already going to lose out

tip 3.
the person telling you about it is going to make profit from your involvement (if you ignore tip 1). so when you get scammed get your funds back from the guy in profit who informed you about it.

tip 4.
follow tip 1 and then report people who are advertising such schemes so less people are enticed by it and less people become victims

tip 5.
dont ignore rule 1. and rule 4.

tip 6.
follow rules 1. 4.  and 5...

tip 7.
if unsure read rule 6 atleast 10 times

Yep, you nailed it.  I always seem to forget that a good portion of users on this forum probably have 2000ppm of lead and/or mercury in their drinking water and wouldn't be able to identify a legitimate money-making opportunity if it came flying out of the sky and struck them like a meteor.  And then a good number of folks here are just too young and inexperienced, and the suggestions like the ones above seem like Moses came back with them on tablets. 

My suggestion is to stay the fuck away from any investment opportunity on this forum.  The lending section is plagued by scammers, and most of those are easy to spot, and if you use collateral you can be safe.  The 'investment opportunities' offer no such safety.  Just stay away.

Yeah, for me it is really good tips because it is really useful for beginners who wants to invest but they should always careful how they invest they should make full research about that site if it is paying or not.
Yes, that true, that what's happen to me for a charge of loss bitcoin because not careful using of bitcoin. I always reinvest my earned everyday so that I scammed no one bitcoin back to me.

Because HYIPs is the pastest way to double your in just 10 days. How do you get that kind of interest it is only for HYIPs.
If you have a 1 bitcoin then you hold it for a week, for a month, or for a year with no action, 1 bitcoin is always 1 bitcoin if no action apply.
And if you have 1 bitcoin then you invest with smarter and wiser way, I promise you it will double your bitcoin. Therefore, there is no impossible for that if you always think positive on it with faith.

To the first quote:
I'd say the reason why there are new HYIPs every day is because a lot of people knows how to make one and I'm sure that there are HYIP owners that goes with different company names and have numerous amount of HYIP sites. There's not that much skill involved when creating one since there are people selling website templates for HYIP sites. You can also hire a web designer if you don't want to make it yourself.

Second quote:
I also do believe that you can easily double your money in HYIP if ONLY THEY WOULD PAY. That is the problem there. You create these illusions that your money will grow and grow by investing in HYIP sites and they want you to believe that. But look at the actual situation and ask yourself, how can you double your money when in the first time that you invest your money, your coins are already gone?

TL;DR: HYIP sites give you the illusion of growing your money, thus, making you invest in their website.

Investing in HYIP site and hoping to double your money is like throwing your money into the fire and hoping that the ashes would turn out to be double the amount of money that you've burnt.

In doing your research , you should be able to spot legit companies that i making little profit yet they have a lot of members trusting, they also turn to be scam , they can run a ponzi especially cloud mining companies, They might have a mining plant , however the mining contracts they are selling would be a ponzi scheme.
