Yeah, got scammed even though I thought it couldn't happen to me, being (usually) quite thorough with my research. However, had a friend recommend me confido after the ico had ended. Wasn't aware it was even going on at the time. Normally, I'd have a look at the team first. Usually it's a dead giveaway on whether the project has chances to succeed. Didn't look this time and it would have been glaringly obvious that it was a scam since all the profiles were fake and could've been deduced easily. Put in 2 eth I think. Wake up next morning to a 70% or something drop. I instantly knew what had happened. Hasn't happened since.

I have never been scammed but my friend has been. That was the first project my friend was involved in. My friend made the signature campaign and the project was promoted on facebook. My friend has not checked information about the project. Most of the investors and staff are very new and nobody knows about them. My friend was scammed for not checking information about the project's human resources. I hope you will not make the same mistake as my friend.

There is no scarcity of conmen and scamsters here in the world of Bitcoins. I myself have been scammed multiple times in the past. On one occasion, I lost more than half of all my Bitcoins. But now I don't think about those losses. I believe in the principle "Let bygones be bygones"....

once I was victimized by scammers. Then I trusted him. I think it's okay to talk to him but not. He took all my money and I did not access him because I was blocked from all his accounts. So Lesson Learned "Do not trust people who are kind to you at the beginning" they just make you fool. It is better if we first trust someone we need to know it completely. Do not trust it immediately if it's a good thing, we know it's a fake persons habit.

Once i got scammed by etherdelta. The Ethereum Network was total overloaded. So i set the Gas price very high to transfer some tokens. I send the transaction because i want to sell fast. For a reason i dont know, the transaction failed. So i lost like 0.012ethereum or 12 dollar for transaction that didnt happen. That was the only time i got scammed. Since those days i dont use etherdelta anymore. And you see in the last days they got huge problems and scammed a lot of people.

Nope. I wasn't. I believe you should be wise to notice when something is wrong. When the reward is too good to be true or the reward is very high or can be achieved very easily, that may be a sign that it is a scam. No good things come easy. You should always work hard.

Last year I sent 1 bitcoin to a fake bitcoin mixer site on the Tor network and lost it. They made good SEO that at that time, when you search bitcoin mixer keyword on google, their site is at the first place.

Definitely Yes. Investing money with a rate of interest of 130%. I was catch up by high interest rate and at the end after I withdraw all my money it absolutely shouldnt send on my digital wallet. Until it was technically scammed and fraud by the company.

I think most people who are into crypto have been scammed at least once in their crypto time. It's also a good lesson, so that next time you will know what to avoid when dealing with people or doing transactions. I have scammed before when I first learned about crypto last 2013. I tried to invest all my funds in a bitcoin investment before and ended up getting nothing from it. From then on, I am very careful when investing or doing any transactions.

Yes I have been scammed by a bounty campaign I've joined and waited for the announcement of the distribution but never heard since then. And the campaign manager assigned was gone for good too.

No, I never get stuck because I am just now involved in the Bitcoin forum, but I could not make any investment here or I could not earn any bitcoin on the forum side, so I'm away from being scared, but if you can earn

Once yes, by investing in a bot that looked more promising than the others... I lost very little, but the lesson was learned. It's a cruel world where there are more bad people than good people... You have to be very careful
