Why do people think everyone is a scam?

[nahotachikwem]

Once bitten twice shy. Once a trust is bridged, it is difficult to regain it. One is being scam by his own people not to talk of other people. You cannot see scam written boldly on someones face, that is the reason everyone is a suspect.

[Skyenet]

It is obvious. So many things now are scam, that this is easy to think that literally everything around is a scam! But this is not true

[cointalktalk]

It is because they will always think on the negative side or maybe they have no idea about bitcoin.

[judel_2018]

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!

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.

People think that everyone scam because they were believe of what we are heard from  others and what we are seeing on the news and we cannot blame here even they don't know about that.

Perhaps because many people are exposed to a scam resulted in them making news and information related to bitcoin and crypto is a scam. It's like a negative thing that's brought up to the positive thing about crypto and bitcoin.

[Bohxz M4p4gm4h4l25]

Maybe because they experience too many scam..we can't say the main reason but most of them is already experienced to scam.

I agree with you there were so many issues regarding Bitcoin is a scam since they were not aware of of this capabilities and I think its affectibg this forum since the reputation were being damage because of the people who aims to ruined this by spreading unfair and misconduct words towards the forum.

[fiulpro]

That's because there are such huge number of scammers in the society that's it so hard to trust someone.

No matter what kind of person you are no one can know from first hand experience thus you should cut some slack on them.

People are not judgemental they are just cautious , I think you should try to offer your services at reputed companies or.. business establishments like if you have to sell some goods then Amazon it is.. generally the procedure is short and easy if you have everything Id proof etc.

Nothing good comes ease but perseverance conquers. Because of the abundance of deceptive acts coinciding with some religious beliefs (Genesis 6:5), people now tend to be cautious in decision making. Please just write the vision and make it plain that he who reads will run with it - paraphrased. Of cause, in due time your originality would surely speak volumes.

[Bitcoinislifer09]

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 think the reason why they don't what to believe in crypto or any online business is because they have seen many people who get scammed from it. They might seen it in television or maybe they experienced it. Also, they do have negative mindset that blocks the positivity of a person. But atleast try, don't depend on the others make sure you are knowledgeable in what you want to enter.

Thats because they not doing some research before doing some invest, example they invest on Cryptocurrency but the crypto they invest is ponzi scheme. After they got scam, they all making some negativ impact for Other Cryptocurrency

[Walter_Zink]

I think they have been cheated too many times by different people

[Mr.John19]

Every one of us has a fantastic dream to rich sooner. We are making the most ideal approach to hit that fantastic dream. Every one of us needs to have an extraordinary number of benefits on bitcoin. So, we do the trading and investment. When we enter the digital currency, we realize that value of the bitcoin isn't steady. Some of the time it drops and raises. There are many individuals panic which may cause to sell their share and stock their shares in order to cut there a huge measure of misfortunes. The more individuals are panic selling it can result in dropping the value.

People think that it is scam because they don't really know the people they are transacting into. With regard to this, we should be vigilant and be more careful specially there are so many hackers around the world. It is bettet as well to install an application for additional security and protection of our Bitcoin.

[Jmabion134]

Because we are all anonymous and we cannot blame them for thinking such thing in that way, I respect everyone here but won't ever trust at first, but that does not mean we should think that anyone here were scams especially the project since a lot of projects out there are potential and are profitable.

[PETMALU11]

Because he heard something bad in using this activity, So that too many people scared when the topic is bitcoin because they really know that is  a scam because they didnt try it they are want to know what is this and when they try it they are wonder and happy because this is true.

[ChrisPop]

Because they are dumb and/or lazy to do their own research regarding their investments so they end up losing their money in filthy scams. There are many serious projects around this space which really want to make a change in the world. Look for a solid team with a viable working product and business model. 

[Saldom12]

if I do not think everyone is a scam, maybe someone who thinks that person is a scam because it has been terauma with people who have been cheated him. Actually if you have friends or people find out first what that person is his character. 

[billknight]

There are many scams on the internet or there are many fake websites created every day. So people absolutely do not trust anyone on the internet. Previously when I first joined the crypto I was also duped by two scamers

[legendbtc]

It is because recently they seen many scam ICO's collecting huge fund from the innocent investors. Once after raising they left behind without any answers. Moreover with recent hacks people are not comfortable while storing them.
