People are easily scammed in crypto world with based on the fact that people sees cryptos as a very short route to become rich ie get rich quickly, they were amazed with the turn around and fortunes of pre-ATH 2017 investors thus are easy prey to any forms of juicy promises and bonuses to invest on crypto projects that has no future whereas the gullible ones will fall in easily, I had witnessed many ICOs that deceived investors into buying their coins while dangles them with huge bonuses which laterturns to scam after collecting investors funds they ran into thin air.

Good point but that is the main target of the management in every project basically people dreaming to become rich once they investing in ICO before but now we also have an IEO which is less scam but definitely without a proper knowledge the high risk to end up loosing money is a high possibility because of the so much trust.
In my opinion, the reasons why ICOs failed are still dominating the crypto token sale processes. They end up loosing and they don't learn their lesson after all the troubles they see on their road. The right feeling can show the crypto investor which management type suits better the investing needs and all they need is the consolidation of knowledge and investing skills.

I can say only one word, they looking for fast profit, without do some effort to search.
It's not about fast profit but remember so many people are still lack of education about how to know which is a scam coin. Education is needed but some newbies are still following the trend and they are investing based on the trend of crypto. If there was a lot of people are FOMO to the project A and newbies will be following those people. So many people still need a lot of education about how to survive in crypto and avoid scammer.

yes i agree with you. many people plunge into the world of crypto with their greed, thinking it's easy to double their money. then new people entering the world of crypto don't know anything, but dare to invest their money into the new project.

Should be taken seriously if you are into this industry. Following the market trend without doing your research will make you regret when you failed to anticipate the right timing to buy or sell your assets. Many people got stuck as they are following movements according to how FOMO's bringing the market, without knowledge you'll be trapped and won't be able to quit in the right time resulting to lose your investment.

I don't think anyone new to the crypto market is that stupid. they must be investing in assets that are already in the market for the first time. but if someone does as you say, maybe he's really stupid. many project scams and all depends on how we choose and set aside those who are bad. we must continue to grow.

I think the most important reason is the hope. We often come to the crypto market with so much hope, about become rich overnight, and with greed, we believe in the promise of projects, thereby losing money when holding their tokens.

Is there someone thinks they can ba a quick millionaire in crypto? If they hope for that dream then maybe they know someone who got rich from cryptocurrencies. Scams are growing because people only want to earn but they don't want to do any research of that project.

Things why a person can easily get scammed in crypto-world
1. Greed 2. No knowledge about the project 3. Trust
This are the three main reason why they get easily scam Greed, because there are a lot of promise by the campaign and the developer we easily believe that its true investing a lot of money in the project that is garbage. No knowledge also is the second reason because of the trend they just go and invest without any knowledge of the said project Trust because they trust the people in the project which sometimes pretends that the person is a member of the project they can easily decieved that once they invest , they will soon find out that the person is just impersonating , and not really what all expected.
I think you got all those points right. For the one thing why people get scammed is that they want to get easy money. Thinking that their investment would jump right away. So they try investing without even studying properly the project.

usually also because they hear the words of others without doing research before joining a project because they do not have much knowledge. so I think knowledge is more important than big results because if you have knowledge good results can follow it

People scammed because most of them doesn't make any research about team and project. They just read some of content from website. this is commons issue in financial. And, many people just looking for "fast profits". People still believe someone who over investment with high return such as 70%, or even 300% profits.

yes here I agree with you, greed, and the prospect of quick profit, distracts people from the truth, it also seems to me that people are just too lazy to learn anything about the project, counting on luck

Another reason, doesn't have enough patience to wait. In this market condition, i think we better waiting for bullish market to investing on crypto project. If we don't have enough patience, we cannot take our time to doing more research on other good projects.

Usually it is done by newbies who do not understand the cryptocurrency ecosystem. They are only lured, as the OP said: greedy. Want to profit quickly without understanding the process. If they want to learn more patiently and seriously, their investment will not be wasted. So many were influenced by FOMO, finally carried away by emotions so that they ignored the analysis. If so they are just like betting.

People scam easily simply because of they greediness that make them careless and because they don't have enough knowledge about the project, for example the developer of the project really intent to scam their investors and supporters, at first they will not show their true intention and when the project is going good they will show their true motives and scam those investors and supporters. People get scam because they don't have any background in the project and their mindset is just to earn money, they trust so much easily that's why they so easily to get scam.

I suggest you stop talking about ICO because it seems like it's not already existing in the crypto space now, what I mean is they are slowly losing popularity and they are not raising enough funds anymore. IEO is what people like now but since this market is not free from any risk, there are still a possibility that we may loss our investment here. By educating ourselves that's the most important thing to do, everyone of us here are just self educating ourselves because that's our only friend for us to be safe when it comes to investing in crypto.

We come to this market because of the story of peoples who invested in bitcoin and altcoins early and now they become millionaires, so with that hope, we are willing to spend large sums of money to enter the market in the hope of changing our lives.
