There will alway be people who would like to get money easy way, and some "smart" people will always use other peoples greed for their own gain. Personally I have never been scamed for money, but once i got scamed in online game for items, therefor i know the feeling... partially  at least. Only advice for other people that i can give is, if its too easy its probably a scam. Also do not share important info to anyone in whom you do not have absolute trust.

I have been scammed from a very long time because when there was no bitcoin in market so I was using other crypto for my earning but they all were useless for me because it just waste my time and money nothing more since bitcoin arrived to market so it change my life and also it return me my lose so I will request to every one join bitcoin because it’s good and you can invest here as much as you can and it can make you rich.

me also and realizing this kind of situation that if you dont have enough knowledge for where you are able to put your money and having some profit also is may not enough so better if you are not able to have some chances of taking bitcoin better to have some research before you are able to choose other than bitcoin.

I have been scammed when i was 16 years old, they said when I invest some money, they will give it to me times two of the money that I invested to them. I didn't check the background of that person and I didn't ask opinions to other people. Then I invest some of my money because I'm expecting the times two of my income but when I give it to them, they just blocked me in all communication. Even though I was scammed, I learned a lot of things like always check the background and don't forget to ask opinions to other people to avoid being scammed.

Yes it happen with me when there was no bitcoin in market so I try a lot of crypto in market and they all cheat me some of them waste my money and some of them waste my time which was a very bad experience in my life because I lose a lot of money since bitcoin arrived to market it return me back all my money and make me rich also I’m very great full to bitcoin for its support and right direction because it was not possible for me to come back.

[Sheltor]

Yes have been scammed before. Victims of scams don't always report when they've been conned because they feel embarrassed for having fallen for a scam.

If you have just fallen for a scam, you shouldn't feel embarrassed. It can happen to anyone. Scammers are constantly refining their scams to make them as effective as possible. They know what works and what doesn't.

I just came over from the 'Investor Games' subforum (hope I got that right). A guy there said he came across a site asking to double his bitcoin, he paid in $20 and got $40 the following day or so. He then went for a higher plan of $300 hoping to cash out $600 but they asked him to pay in another $300 before cashing out. He got confused and was asking for advice.

I think I've been there before. Before I became a forum member. I once came across one of those scam sites promising to generate bitcoins. Thought it was real, but when they asked me to pay some transaction fee, I was stuck. I had no money to pay the fee. With the benefit of hindsight, I know I'd have sent them the 'transaction fee' had I had the coins to send them.

Now, what have been your experience with internet scams?
How do we help people not to get scammed?

Yes,I do. I had an experienced being scammed by networking. It was like you will deposit money and  bring two friends to join .. and if your two friends recruited 2 other friends, you will be paid like 70 percent of the money you have deposited but at the end only two of us in 15 people that in the pyramid had been paid. And the scammer who is the founder of that internet scam had been jailed. So my advise for is to be observant and make sure to do your research before joining anything online. At first I thought bitcoin is alwo a scam but I found out from my cousin that it is legit.

Being scammed is now very popular on internet. Because a lot of cyber attacks on user. We can prevent us from being scammed. Before taking any step we should take a research about a site you want to put your bitcoin. And ask people in the forum about the site.

Always ask from those who have experienced in such things. Use those site which is popular more people who use the site. This is the easiest way in order to being scammed in bitcoin.

[bayong]

No.I've never been scammed because i never entertain them.For example they are asking you to send money,that is the time i don't entertain it sound like a scammed for me.JUST DON'T BE SCAMMED.

[Deathgamer]

Not yet scammed ever. I will surely be conscious and vigilant and be more careful so that everything about bitcoin is secured. Scammers are everywhere that is why we should not trust easily. Bitcoin is such a blessing that we cannot afford to be scammed. We should take care the benefits we get from bitcoin so that we will be able to be more progressive sooner.

As an online gamer and online invester ill'd never experience being scam because every transaction i made I first check, stalk and ask proven statement that she or he is a legit seller or investor. Scammers are all over the world in any type of bussiness thats involve money. Many people have thrown thier dignity to scam and ern money in easy way. So as a online investor i will advise that if you have a transaction through online make sure that it is liget and they have many transaction to others.

[Aleksabit]

that it is very easy to be deceived and lose all incoming money, but because of the price of bitcoins, they are stealing and lying more and more and are only glancing about their needs, which leads to deceit of people, but today it is very protected bitcoin so this scam is reduced to a minimum

Not yet. Never been scammed. In every site or online business I enter I always make sure that this is reliable and legit. And worthy to give your trust. I always checked the feedback, reviews and even the informatiin about it for me to avoid being scam. If there is an evidence, I want a proven statement for safe and security also.

I have not been here for long but there was a time that section of the forum was very popular people threw their bitcoin away in those investments, but now that bitcoin has gone up in price people have become a lot more serious about their bitcoin and they are not going to invest in those scams as often as they did in the past.

[Scorpion]

Yes I have unfortunately, that has happened to me by use of the USD, virtual video game currency and Bitcoin. Even though I've been scammed it doesn't deter me from participating with the Bitcoin blockchain still.

[fleda]

I have never been scammed. Nowadays there are a lot of people out there that you cant trust. I have never used my own money just to earn bitcoin. I am just focusing here in this forum and all my earnings are directly goes to my savings.

[crypto_Butterfly]

Onlt use trusted exchanges sites when you do trading. Never use low level exchanges. Thats how you will stay from getting being scammed.

It is really hard to identify wether you have entered into a sight that is scam. But if you are to notice, like what your story said, it is more likely to be a one sided-benefit relationship wherein the site will ask you more and more and just give you promising words. From that, you will really start doubting. Bitcoin is not an easy money if you'll be wanting to earn more ASAP. It takes time and also build trust. You can also check on some reviews and research before entering on your preferred site to check it background but be sure that those reviews was not created by the one who is part of the site to gain users.

I have scammed many times here on digital world and in real time. It feels so bad and mad at the same time , they look like legit sites and company and all of a sudden it will disappear. What really make me mad is the i am not the only one who have been scam there.
