There is no way to eliminate scam entirely. There are people who are opportunistic and make people believe for a guaranteed profit, and there are also those who are gullible enough to believe such false promises thinking that it could bring them fortune overnight. The only thing we can do to prevent being scammed and not be fooled around, is not to believe those who are claiming to make you rich without doing anything. Analyze the project and review the community's feedback.

There are a number of tips for avoiding Bitcoin or Altcoins scams that we can do, namely:

Tip1: Don't be fooled easily by the easy thing.
Usually fraudsters in doing bitcoin fraud send random bitcoin addresses and a private key this is done to request to send money to someone's email address. Fraudsters have a mode that seems to take money from someone, but what happens is the opposite.
In a text file that is sent to you actually has been inserted an exe file that is executed, and if you have installed it then the fraudster already has access to the Bitcoin Wallet that you have.

Tip 2: Be careful with suspicious links
Don't be easily fooled by unknown or suspicious links. Because in your email there must be lots of Bitcoin offers from some popular Bitcoin services that advise you to visit a WEB site, where there will use information from your Bitcoin wallet.

Tip 3: Be Careful of Ads from Google
Be careful of advertisements issued by Google, because many fraudsters deliberately buy a place for advertising through Google AdWords by referring to links to sites that are owned by the fraudster.
Usually the appearance of the site has a look like a popular Bitcoin site like BTC-e or Blockchain.

Tip 4: Avoid offers that don't make sense.
If there is an offer to increase Bitcoin quickly, don't be easily attracted because it is very vulnerable to Bitcoin fraud. All you need to remember is that there is no business that is obtained instantly.

Tip 5: Don't Download from a Suspicious Site
If you like downloading, for this Bitcoin business you have to be more careful. Don't download software from unknown or suspicious sites, because it usually contains viruses that can steal your Bitcoin
.
Tip 6: Separate E-Wallet Computers from Daily Computers
To maintain the security of your Bitcoin e-wallet, separate the computer with your daily computer, and break up the internet if it's not needed. Because data theft is usually done through sites connected to the Internet.
But even though Bitcoin security has been done it is not impossible that the more sophisticated Bitcoin fraud case is difficult to avoid. As you might have been with about fraudulent exchange cases, cloud mining services and many others.
