It seems as though there is a predominant attitude about people trying to do business that most people are scammers. We have run into this time and time again, accusing us of running "dirty" money or stolen goods.
We put ads or offers in various places saying "vetted buyer" and "respected escrow" and still get negative comments from people that don't even want to do business. They would just rather demean and abase and not add any positive thoughts.
I will say that we have had pretty good success in spite of the naysayers. Doing business in this way is new to most people and seems foreign. But we have plodded through and have achieved a success that has proved that not all are wrong.
There are people all over that are looking for honest services, and we have carved a niche for that entity. We know that there are scammers out there, but we are working to elevate us to a position of reknown.
Not all offers are scams!

The Future is Bitcoin.

Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

You can't blame people for this. In fact, I would actually advise anyone to assume that every opportunity is untrue until vetted by themselves. There's also a lot of wisdom to that all-too-familiar phrase "if it's too good to be true..."

Anyway, I'm responding to say you shouldn't take it personally. We all started out with difficulties, but the thing to learn is patience and openness. From the beginning, be fully transparent and clear about communicating your message.

If you say you have a trusted escrow, then name the escrow and let the person vouch for you. If you're saying vetted buyer, then present the details for the public to vet.

Question all your own offers first, find the weaknesses, before making it public. Good luck.

I don't think so but to my mind the answer is obvious because the number of scams has increased. It is difficult to define who is who. That's why a lot of people think that it is necessary to be careful with everyone

Why let it be, if we can afford it we must provide the correct information to provide a true understanding of Bitcoin.
Scammer must be resisted because it is very dangerous, they can give panic to anyone with lies

You cannot really blame them, there are many scams in the forum and people are very suspicious to the point of being almost paranoid of everything, however another possibility is that in fact the ones that are accusing you are in fact competitors selling similar or the very same products and they are just trying to make people nervous about buying your products or services.

Once beaten, twice shy! The reason to suspect almost everyone is because of the following reasons:
The person has been scammed before
He must have been hearing lots of information going around of how people got scammed.
Also, he must have witnessed it before.
And to cap it all, there are warnings everywhere to guard against being scammed.

This attitude has been fostered by empirical evidence.

The list of human garbage who've milked innocent crypto users will soon be longer than the great wall of China. Even if you hadn't been personally raped, crypto is clearly a uniquely distasteful combo of irreversible money, the internet and quasi anonymity. That's a perfect recipe for disgusting behaviour.

It's down to you to build your rep until it's bullet proof. People are very quick to scream 'scam' but it's also kind of hard to blame them for that because more often that not it very much is.

Keep going and you'll get there eventually.

Thats right its very difficult to detect if the person is scammers or not because they are good impersonators as well to convince people to invest in their scam coins that is why we all need to be very careful and vigilant and not easily believe in unbelievable promises.

Because if people we dont know we cant trust them without nothing know about that person. Dont eaily believe for what we see think that every people is scammer so we avoid to do transaction without guarranteed. Specialy in crypto, its online and its world wide. Different people is might bad attitude. We cant blame people that thinking always for scam.

Because people have been tired of being deceived by some projects that did give the promise of heaven at the time of the ICO, but then what did they get after several months of ICO running? there is only bad news that the ICO is failing, not reaching the target, the ICO is extended etc, it must have broken the promise of paradise they promised, the ICO finally disappeared ...... and that is very traumatic for some investors like me.

There are really such cases where one wouldn't take a risk again after a bad experience. And it's not their fault that they feel that way. We can't really blame them for being more careful this time around. But with most of us on the right track doing the right things to contribute to this emerging society and to help others to prosper as well, I think that that will be an enough reason for those who lost their faith in such thing to lift their spirits up once more and to try again, to take another risk. Because after all, risks are what make life worth living. And it's in trying that one will be able to achieve something.

After seeing so many scammers, it becomes a reflex reaction.

But it doesn't really matter.

The people that actually matter are smart enough to separate out the signal from the noise.

It's often those with no real skin in the game that screech about everything being a scam.

Also, there are a few jaded important voices that dismiss most things without any examination as they've simply wasted too much time in the past and no longer care.

At the end of the day, everyone needs to do their own due diligence.





Don't trust. Verify.




But, that's hard work. Easier to screech "scammer" than do real work.

In reality, they fear because they find some difficulty in finding legit person, there are many scams and people stealing from the wallets and this make people to confuse about whether to whom we have to believe. Now situation are like that in online, nobody don't have any connection in between them.

I think there is no one to blame but the real scammers. People are just vigilant because as we all know there are a lot of scammers out there.

I think you are just getting frustrated because you are not a scammers and people are accusing you as a scammer, do not worry in time you will build your brand and people will know that you are legit.

Well, can you really blame them? With all the scams we see in the news, then we romanticize it in movies plus the thought of losing your hard earned money in a flash is really scary. I think this is really their initial reaction to business ventures. People believe that employment is where they'll get rich, but believe me investments is where it's at.

We have run into this time and time again, accusing us of running "dirty" money or stolen goods. We put ads or offers in various places saying "vetted buyer" and "respected escrow" and still get negative comments from people that don't even want to do business. They would just rather demean and abase and not add any positive thoughts. I will say that we have had pretty good success in spite of the naysayers. Doing business in this way is new to most people and seems foreign. But we have plodded through and have achieved a success that has proved that not all are wrong.
There are people all over that are looking for honest services, and we have carved a niche for that entity. We know that there are scammers out there, but we are working to elevate us to a position of reknown. Not all offers are scams!

Not all offers are scams, of course but the problem is that many are and since we are dealing here with eCommerce or the digital world there is a need for an entity to first established a good track record or a trusted brand before many will trust doing business with you. And with all the scams around this is just a natural and expected reaction from many people who have been victimized by scammers online and even offline. We are living in a trust-less world and this is partly one reason why Satoshi Nakamoto invented the blockchain technology. Good thing that despite all the odds the business you are talking about still managed to make it through...and now you are all ready to take advantage of the goodwill the business was able to established so far. Congrats.
