it's easy for you to scam if you're offered to invest or pay for a profit making sure that the info is good for you who offers you just not to believe and if you can ask any friends you know for not being threatened



We can prevent scum against the scummer by keeping our bitcoin account independent of giving your private key to anyone so that you do not rob a btc and so they can not transact your account thereby avoiding the scum of your account scummer.

Scammers are the most creative personalities around they will go along way to get those coins from you and when they do, the sad part of it is that you might never get the back ever,, you therefore have to be very cautious on who you dealing with . who you trust with your private information. avoid phishing sites as much as possible, avoid responding to promising and lucrative offers on social media. keep your wallet key safe, and do not expose it to anyone whatsoever

if we know what the scammer will do then we do not have to laboriously secure our wallets because we already know. and how can we know what a scammer will do with us ?. we will never know when a scammer will steal the bitcoin from our wallet. so we must always be ready for alert and careful that scammers do not steal our bitcoin just like that,

In my years of experience with bitcoin there is only one effective way to avoid scammers. In joining ICO even if you do your research you will not know that they are scammers until the ICO is over. Even if how many preparations we do or make in the end we still end up being a victim to scammers. The best way to avoid scammers is to no invest your bitcoins. Just hold it in your wallet and hold it for a long time and when the price is right you can sell them and you will have a good profit.

I am also a victim of a scammers for a very long time I've been scam here for a lot of times and neither one of them I do not have figure out that they are scammers because they are really as normal as what a normal icos are and they are really hard to know it you will be scammed or not. So for me it is just a matter of luck  because you always join an ico that you never knew in the first place it is like going to a war alone. Even if you check it much more if they are great scammers they will be successful.

Type 4: Identity theft scammers - These guys will contact you as CEOs of ICOs or Social celebrities, usually banking upon the names of a famous person
How to protect yourself: Try pinging them from an another ID of theirs (say if scammer pinged you from Telegram, drop them a message over their facebook ID) and ask them to check that message. This would work as a Two-Factor-Authentication for that personality.
I often meet this types and maybe such types are very common, and many have experienced them. They claimed to be on the team side, and offered to donate to their wallet address. This is usually on telegram. But I don't do anything, because from any point, this is obviously a hoax, a fake, a scam. So I just ignore these things.

That is so easy to answer. Being knowledgeable will be the main factor to avoid those scammer. Scammers tend to victimize all ignorance when it comes to this field.
If you are knowledgeable about cryptocurrency and bitcoin you can really avoid all the scammers, and then do not trust anyone especially the people who have negative background. In addition to that, do not share your password and private to anybody so that you can avoid all scammers on online.

How to Protect Yourself From Scammers?

There are some rules to get rid or protect yourself from scammers:

1. Don’t buy or invest in something that seems too good to be true.
   Many coins are rising, there are cryptocurrencies everywhere. We can't stop it. But one thing we should do to avoid getting scammed is that don't believe and invest so easily. Because remember, scammers are everywhere.

2. Protect your confidential informations.
   As we all know, many sites in the internet needs an information about you. Your age, birthday, location and etc. Don't ever post it there because who knows that it's just a scam. And they can use it against you or use it to make crime and you are the one who will be blamed after, because it is your information. Be wise.

3. Don't make hasty decision.
   Don't be caught too easily even though the offer seems to be worth to buy or to invest. Make sure that it is legit and it is not a scam. Scammers are wise. Think twice before you click.

4. Make researches.
   To get rid of scammers or to not get scammed is you need to research a lot of articles and news. Because reading and watching those things will help you secure your information, make you a better person to fight scammers and protect yourself from them.

You should use your head while evaluating any project or offer. If you are completely new to crypto, I will suggest you to invest only in top 10 coins  based on coinmarketcap.

Thanks, You have shared almost all the clues to identify the scammer. I am caught a scammer one time. The Scammer is added to coinmarketcap before finished their ICO and the price was so high in the exchange than ICO rate. After seeing this I got foolish and invested to that ICO. That was my first ICO. so sad happening.
