I almost got scammed on twitter by a fake account. Scammers are setting up fake accounts pretending to be other people/ICO's/Tokens. It's very tricky if you are not paying attention. Make sure you check spelling on all names to be correct. Be careful who you give your info to. Even if it's just your email address. Scammers will not stop scamming so watch out and pay close attention to what you are signing up for. Good Luck everyone and be safe!
Indeed, in the crypto market I was deceived several times, especially at the beginning of work in the crypto market. Including several times failed when working with different programs bounty and airdrops. But in any case it is a valuable experience, which taught me to carefully and correctly choose projects for teamwork.

Yes, the problem of duplicate accounts is very important. In each campaign, I see many such scammers. Unfortunately, not all bounty managers do their job well. Some people turn a blind eye to this and bounty hunters do not get a decent reward ..

Scammers contact me every single day in Telegram. They start with "Hey user". What a lame and obvious approach. They are my greatest entertainment. I joke with them and mock them severely.
also a favorite activity), although earlier he himself was repeatedly caught in the bait of super signings for signals. not a little money lost. but do not regret it's all the experience

There are really a lot of scams out there in the market. Be careful. Alway check their website, their communities, are they active on social media etc. Also, do you believe in their project etc. For example, I follow closely SciDex. They are creating a new type of smart contract generator for complex transactions. So that even regular businesses that need legally binding contracts can be on the blockchain.

I often come across things like this. This sort of thing happening and languid surely would be very troubling. but this is already a risk that occurs because crypto is increasingly promising so reasonable only when the scam is pretty much popping up. the more selective and has a vast knowledge will be greatly needed in a situation like this.

I think almost everyone in their lives. maybe they could just be fraudsters or become victims of fraud. in the case of cryptocurrency itself there have been many victims and maybe everyone has ever felt it

As a user who is active in crypto investment including an ICO, it is certainly normal to lose to a scam, I have also been hit by a scam and it certainly makes a lot of regret.

So far, there are still plenty of investment sites on social media, some even masquerading as ICO, so they can trick many investors. We must be more mindful and careful in choosing ICO projects, bounty schemes.

ENCRYBIT — FUTURE OF CRYPTOEXCHANGE

I had series of encounters with scammers but not on crypto. One of them happened last month (August, 2018). On that very day I received a phone call from a man claiming to be the Director of a certain company asking me to come that my contract application was successful. At first I was confused because I did not remember applying for contract in that particular organization he made mention of. In fact what really helped me was the handy list of companies I have dealings with that is right on my Android phone note. After I dropped the call with the promise to call him back I quickly went through the list. Neither me nor any of my friends apply with my company name for any contract with such company. Then I realized it was a scam so I refused to call back.

I've been scammed some times for a couple hundred dollars... and it sucks! But it's a "nice" practise to learn more things about how the internet and people work.

A ridiculous question on which I will say with a big statement YES, because it seems to me that there will never be such a thing that people are not deceived in the market, probably this will concern all participants of the crypto-currency community, but it's true.

If I am from a website that is almost similar to the website Cryptocurrency Exchange.
It is very dangerous when I enter the e-mail address and password, if only it happens maybe my Bitcoin has been stolen by SCAMMER.
