You wouldn't be asking this question on this forum if it was possible. It wouldn't exist any more as no one would trust Bitcoin any more.

The prime reason it took off in the first place is the way it managed to completely extinguish all doubt about the validity of a transaction. Without that Bitcoin has zero value.

A 'fake' transaction cannot be broadcast, let alone mined and would never reach another wallet nor would it be sendable in the first place. Every aspect of Bitcoin's design squashes the possibility flat.

what about making a transaction that will appear then will never be confirmed

You'll just be ignored completely. It will never appear anywhere.

He obviously doesn't know how the Bitcoin protocol works...

I think he is simply want to know how to create one for him to scam others, I don't think creating a fake transaction can be a kind of school project, that just make me laugh,
anyway I think the reason why the OP is newbie is for him to not get detected for the scam we wanted to do, I think he want to create a fake transaction for the purpose that he send something to someone and post it in the social media so he can attract victim.

In case the transaction which will never be confirmed..but I bet it makes no sense.
you think it doesnt makes sense to you but it does makes sense to some because they intend to spam the network with lower fees  . they are bitcoin haters and they nothing to do with thier lives  .

@fake transactions ? you mean sending to an unknown address ? with a low amount and with lower fees ?  yes its possible  but like the guy above said  , the transactions might never be confirmed forever .

The correct answer is NO, but some people create their own so-called Crypto currency investment site and then they connect that site with their own internal ledger with fake coin tokens. <Not tokens on the Blockchain> The investors are oblivious to the difference, so they think they are buying actual coins.

Usually these sites do not allow people to withdraw actual coins, but you can sell your fake tokens and withdraw the cash. They charge trading fees, when you sell fake tokens on their internal ledger as if you were buying and selling real Crypto currencies.  Angry

Some scam sites like btc doublers fake transactions but they are only visual they don't work if you click them. Another way is to make a fake blockchain and then the transactions lead to that blockchain which you control.
It doesn't really mean it is fake. It is real blockchain but isn't being used.

The correct answer is NO, but some people create their own so-called Crypto currency investment site and then they connect that site with their own internal ledger with fake coin tokens. <Not tokens on the Blockchain> The investors are oblivious to the difference, so they think they are buying actual coins.

Usually these sites do not allow people to withdraw actual coins, but you can sell your fake tokens and withdraw the cash. They charge trading fees, when you sell fake tokens on their internal ledger as if you were buying and selling real Crypto currencies.  Angry

Good answer. Then they fake volume to fool people.

You cannot send a "fake" Bitcoin transaction that you have. Majority of the network runs the reference client which also follows the protocol rules. With that in mind, the nodes will reject and refuse to propagate any transaction that doesn't follow its rules. The main rules is that the transaction must have a valid signature which would provide the proof that the UTXOs are authorised to be spent. In addition, its also not possible to fabricate a transaction with fake inputs since the inputs must be in the UTXO list of the individual nodes.

Fake transactions no ways!

This is not fiat were we have problems of counterfeit notes and the alike.

With cryptocurrencies anything fake coins means altcoins and bitcoin BTC is the only coin which is not an alt, so to have fake transactions that would mean having another blockchain.

Fake is a loose word, and under some definitions fake transactions can be possible. Double-spending can be considered one such example - there are multiple ways to do it. The first type is unconfirmed transactions - like their name suggests, they are not final, and scammers can trick unexperienced people into accepting them, and then abandoning those transactions by making competing transactions that spend the same coins get accepted in the block. The other type is a double-spend attack with chain reorg - this reverses all latest transactions, even if they are included in blocks, but to this day this attack remained theoretical in Bitcoin (but not altcoins), because Bitcoin is protected by PoW.

That is one good reason of why blockchain technology exist because it cannot be manipulated, all transaction are real and recorded on a ledger and systematically encrypted for security.

Of course that is impossible, bitcoin uses blockchain, and the blockchain is the biggest journal that anyone can see. So how can you do a fake transaction.

I don't understand why most people said 'No', because it's wrong.
You can actually send fake transactions. OP didn't ask if a fake transaction would be accepted by the network, which of course will have the correct answer 'No'.

Bitcoin is not a bubble, it's the pin!
