Buying bitcoin is very easy, if you want to reduce the chances of being scammed to zero then you need to go to an exchange like coinbase and buy coins there, now if you want to retain some level of anonymity then you could use a service like local bitcoins and arrange a face to face trade, the chances of being scammed are higher but are still very low compared to other ways of trying to get bitcoin.

I think that investing in bitcoin is not difficult, if today, you have capital, you can use it to buy bitcoin in every exchange, maybe, paypal can be an alternative to buying bitcoin.

Don't trust any site that is not clear, and not an exchange.

if I don't have to be at that risk, if I want to invest only purely on bitcoin, it's not bitcoin cash or the like. so I think it's the best and easiest way than having to risk with other bitcoin names.

By educating yourself. Seriously, people should remember that in this era information could be gathered easily from the internet. They should educate themselves before getting involved in anything, especially things involving money like investing. Getting scammed because you don't spare time to educate yourself and too eager with profit is ridiculous and greed at its best.

Always look for information and review before you do anything.

LOL! Then who will be those bitcoin officials? We didn't know them either.
Anyway, why did you choose to buy in escrow group if you can buy on major exchange sites or even in coinbase. Honestly, the problem is also unto us since we tolerate this kind of activity even we know the consequences, like it wasn't really hard to buy on exchange sites. If we don't patronize this kind of activity then people will think to stop since they have nothing to victimize.
Always be wary on ticker and logo of your coins that you're buying, bitcoin is btc and bitcoincash is bch and their logo is too obvious not to differentiate.
