News Bitcoin - Beware of Crypto-MLMs and High Return Investments on Social Media

Unfortunately, the world of cryptocurrency has seen a bunch of people running scammy ‘investments’ preying on people’s lack of knowledge.

Bitcoin.com has done extensive reporting on the likes of the so-called digital currency Onecoin.

Usually when you see MLM, HIYP or Pyramid or any kind of hybrid, unsustainable in the long run type of investment, there are obvious red flags you can spot at first glance.

- the investment returns are abnormally high, extremely consistent - they are advertised as sure way of earning money

- creators of scam investments promise you that they will double your money in 3 days, week, month, etc. - risk free

- there is no contract info, address, not to mention brick and mortar headquarters or anyone with real social media profile behind the company
