If you have been scam in the cryptocurrency world, there's really not much you can do but learn from the incident and prevent it from happening again.  You can try to report it to authorities but I doubt they will do anything about it.  Just think of it as a paid lesson and move on.

Well By saying you that. you've been scammed you cant recover that because any people who gets your money token or anything thats in your wallet has a dummy account and dummy address to hide their locations and who they are. you can do is for the next time when you make an account be more wise and careful on what your doing So that to prevent the hackers or scammers get your money again.

Be a model. Do not be too shy that you scam or you do not admit you have scammed, because we I think has experience that. The thing is we need to educate people who are unknowledgeable for enable them to not meet this bad doings of other people, scamming. One kind of a sure scam is HYIP sites or High Yield Investment Platforms which has deceitful interest that can really make people invest. They are using Ponzi Scheme in most cases.
I myself is a victim of HYIP Sites. My responsibility in order to help other people is to teach and aware them of these sites.

Scams are everywhere. Should I been scammed. I will learn from my mistakes. I would rather invest and choose on legal, official, popular sites of Bitcoin. Instead of trusting on sites which would not guarantee me a good future but problem, and stress.

Taking the wisdom of what has happened is our duty as a human being. Sometimes I am also angry and panicked if exposed to a scam. However, I realized that there was no point in my anger and there was no point in my regret. So, we just need to forget and find another way to cover the loss.

What can you do when you have been scammed ? what are your possibilities to recover your funds, I mean here in the community, excepting going and report to the police.

You can do nothing,
I lost more than 5k$ because I logged in a phishing site by I couldn't do anything, you will never get your money back.
When you loose your money because af scamming or sending to a wrong adress you will never get your money back because you don't know how is the person that got your money.

I think that there is no way for you to get back the amount of coins that has been stole from your since blockchains are not programmed to return something and it was just created to transfer different kinds of coins to another place.

You are usually screwed when this happens because there is not evidence and even if you have screenshots they still say it is not enough evidence.

It it happens to me, I will try to find a way to report the scammer. That is all the we can do I think. The scammer's IP address will be banned if they were tracked. His account on the forum will be banned as well if proven guilty. I hate it when I hear/read news that a scammer got away and nothing happened to him. It's always happening that is why those scammers keeps on multiplying. They will always have a way to get into someone's account and steal everything to their victim. Don't trust anyone and use different passwords. Don't login on other computer or login in a public wifi.

There is not much you can about it, even in a regulated platform such as online shops there is only little you can do, more so with this decentralized one.
Where anyone can go anonymous, and transaction are not monitored.
Best is to avoid getting scammed by reading whitepapers. I have not heard of anyone getting refunds.

Being scammed is so hurting. But there is nothing we can do because we don't know them and we don't know where do they live. As a safety precaution, everyone should be aware of the ICO you're going to participate, have some research and thorough investigation about the project. This will help you being scammed.

well I think it's very difficult to imagine doing something fraud especially you can not seek help other than to the authorities about fraud cases, if possible there can track every passing transaction or address used scammer then it might happen especially if try to use the exchange but that's not the thing which is easy or simple you can do yourself because the mixing service that can be used so that it will be difficult to track any transaction because it violates the relationship between the address of the coin and the destination address, perfect yourself when you have ever got the problem of fraud karna be successful people you will experiencing pavilions and difficulties - this will help and bring you to be more careful in transacting,

There is little to none you can do after being scammed. I can't imagine all my hard work go to waste. I didn't even enjoy my fruits of labor now because its gone. You can try reporting it to the authorities but lets face it that won't actually help you at all. The best thing is to think of it as a lesson and learn from the bad experience.

Tracking crooks and tracing their IP addresses are all very difficult and require strong Internet technology. I think this is a very difficult matter.
