BTC. Not a bad take for the effort.
I wish there was something the forum would do about these. This place is border line operating a safe haven for these crooks.
It's not up to anyone but the individual to do their own research and look out for themselves. If it looks too good to be true, it probably is. Looking at the Trust AND actually reading it as well as looking at the persons leaving Trust. Follow the bread crumbs.
It's sad when people get taken but the risk can be reduced by simple research, asking questions and not jumping on the first thing they see and eagerly sending coins.
Any time spent in the Scam section should alert anyone to the fraud games played most often.
Protect yourself at all times.
