Well if they knew ICO is fraud then surely they would not invest in it, who would want to lose money? Thing is they get manipulated to do it.

To my knowledge people don't knowingly invest in scam ICOs, it's usually done out of ignorance and I believe no one will invest in a coin which is obvious that is a scam.

People who invest in ICO usually dream of getting rich overnight. There are more new investors here. Many newcomers don’t know what to enter the cryptocurrency. They only know that ICO can add a few zeros to your asset mantissa. The ICO recession represents the whole. The reduction of investors in the cryptocurrency market.

Because i think mostly of these people are newbies in this industry and they don't bother researching about the ICO project they are joining so thats why scam ICOs are still keep increasing. I hope people will learn now on how to study and research the project before joining to avoid scams.

There are too many scam icos and people investing these scam icos because they dont know about that. No body can not be sure about any ico. Because we are not seeing or meet these guys. We are only doing research with their websites and telegram groups. Because of that always there are some investors who investing scam icos wrongly and they are loosing their money .

Yes, they don't know that they are investing to a scam ICO. They don't do research on where they are investing and that's the sad fact that's happening and even during the past. But now I think it has reduced, people learned that there are tons of fake ICOs that are aiming to gather money through investors even without execution of their project after creating a token.

Sheeple are just generally morons that follow the herd and do not make the effort to research for themselfs so they set themselfs up for getting fleeced.

I think they don't go back to check because they only follow others and are lazy to do research. ICO fraud is indeed very difficult to know and of course, this makes many people suffer losses. And we must be careful and always do research.

It's not like they intentionally invest on scam ICo's, many people wouldn't know until the end of the ICO. Some ICo's although spells scam from the beginning but lots of people are insensitive about it, they don't research on it, they just invest and get scammed.

Often the fraudulent ICO will make investors feel that profits are high, or they will create some hype news, such as trying to make their projects and celebrities have a little relationship. Usually there is only one reason people are cheated, that is the greed of human nature.

As far as I heard, the ICO Scam raised over $ 1 billion. Why did people invest in these ICO? Do you think this situation has changed now?
You never know if an ICO is a scam until after the token sale. Some teams come up with amazing ideas and never end up reaching their softcap. But do to time and marketing and etc go in the whole a certain amount. Other teams take advantage and plan to scam from the very start. If you only raised $200,000 all that covers is advertisement and marketing. You have to pay these people something. If thats all that is raised they have to use it to pay. Just because a project does not succeed does not mean it is a scam. There is a diffrence, I for one won't invest in ICO unless ATLEAST the softcap is reached!

There is no investor's who want to scam the money they invest the problem is there are some investors who did not do research before they invest in a projects,or maybe they are engage to there advertisements because scammers is using people to advertise there project into the social media's to attract investor's,and also scammers now is very wise smart very hard to detect the scam projects these days we will know that the project is scam after there tokensale because they run away.

not all ICOs are scams, there are some ICOs that are truly legit and profitable for investors even though they have not managed to collect hardcaps, Localcoinswap is one of the very profitable ICOs that I have met in crypto since I joined here, and hopefully EOSEX is also like that

You were asking why, I believe that because the investors didn't know that the project they invest on is a scam project. I don't think the investors will put their money if they do know that the project they put their investment is a scam, i believe they will avoid to do that.

Well sometimes this is very hard to believe that people get scammed in such ICOs but i think we can attribute this to the greed of some human beings with respect to gains. These scam ICOs offer very huge bonuses and promises huge returns on investment and most people get swayed away by it.

No one in his right mind will invest if he knows that what he is investing is a scam ICO, these scam ICO are getting better and better imitating the real and legit ICO, but now people can easily trace who is legit and who is not, maybe next year the number of scam ICO will be much lesser.

according to my knowledge, people who invest in ICO are people from different backgrounds, there are those who invest only because they want to make a profit and also among them, who invest because they are familiar with the team or developer concerned, and invited to invest with a high income after entering the exchanger but in fact, money can beat our relationships as friends, whether it's friends in the real world or cyberspace

As the current ICO scam has become more sophisticated and seems to make investors more profitable, many investors have lost their property due to blind investment!

People are investing in ICOs to make profit , but at the moment of investing they are not aware of scam ICOs as we can realize that only in the later stages. This is why we have to make our own research and invest only in perspective projects with great team.

One should be very careful when choosing ICO nowadays. So much scam and so much week projects on the market today. Investing in ICOs became very risky in this year. Where is my lucky 2017?
