I think the main reason is greed, most of these scams have scams writing all over them and many negative pointers around them but most people ignored them because they are looking for quick profit and they got made. Most scammers know the human behaviour how they behave and they exploit it

You nailed it. The most that makes people to be vulnerable is the greed. But some people also just want to make genuine investments but they end up being scammed. That's why I put up a post on how to avoid being scammed here https://rb.gy/idp4wh. Many posts had also been put up on different platforms but these scammers still always have their ways.

I agree with you on this. The number one reason for being scammed is greed. Little or no investment byet promising huge unexplainable returns should be a red flag but those looking for money by all means get scammed and fall for everything. Scam thrives because there are greedy persons. Same with email and crypto scams. In fact some offers have scam written ball over them but because of greed, it's overlooked. It is not because they are lazy, the main reason is because they are greedy and have no knowledge when investing in this market. It has made them easy to be fooled with scam projects

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 totally agree that stupidity breeds greed, and greed breeds poverty. Greed and stupidity are twin sisters))

Id like to add fear of losing investments. There are scammers who will message you saying your account is unsafe or there is a new exchange being used in your current project posing as the admin of the project. You forget to check if his really who he says he is since your preoccupied with the thought of losing 90% of assets. And so you hand him your coins. The scenario seems dumb. But someone i know fell for that.

People are easily got scam because they want to earn easy money and some or maybe most of the people are greedy they wanted to be come millionaire or to earn billions in a very short period of time. I believe that if we wanted to earn lots of profit we need to work hard for it scammers always make a great offer so that they can easily convince thier victim, so we need to be careful everyday for good.

the only suitable habit, in this case, is laziness. Well, being lazy to collect information can make them easily exposed to a scam, because basically they don't know the concept of the project, the team, and other information. all they know is profit. Unfortunately you're right, what matters to some of us are profit. So regardless on the purpose of the project (and if it has a real use case and working product) as long as there's a potential profit they will bite the offer and invest their money. Later then they will realize the mistakes they did and the importance of having a knowledge before investing.

I totally agree with all your opinions. These 3 things are the main factors Why lots of people got scam easily. I really pay attention to people's greed, because his resignation wants to have a quick advantage, so he is very easy to get scam in an obscure project. Without knowledge of crypto, it will definitely make us very easily fooled by the seduction of an unclear project. Therefore, before entering the world of crypto, it is better to first increase your knowledge of crypto and not be influenced by the seduction of projects that are not necessarily profitable.

I agree with you. People are too complacent most of the time and forget to be extra diligent. Lack of diligence results to lack of knowledge and so they are easily manipulated into some kind of plotted schemes. Sometimes, our own burning desire can also lead us to wrong directions so we should really try to be rational and discern everything.

Especially if the project offered will get a large reward, so many people without thinking will fall into a project scam. Not only about money but It is a human habit to get profit easily

I think some of the reasons why lots of people tend to get scammed easily is because they are so trust-worthy and that they believe that this crypto-world can change their lives for the better. Another, is that they have no idea or lack of idea on the project they are involved with.

That's true! Specifically, all of that happen because people don't have knowledge and understanding about the market. They jump into the market without learning anything. Therefore, they can't know which is right which is wrong. That's why they easily got scammed by scammers. I always advice for newbies that they should spend time to learn before investing in anything!

Many say here it's greed, but I agree with this lot saying it's ignorace and others saying about impatience. A greedy person might have lots of patience to be able to get his plan working. A greedy person might be very intelligent to come up with a plan to scam people. But a middle class bloke with money to invest might be impatient enough to enter to a deal and not study it and see if its scammy or fraudulent in nature, but he is not greedy for money, he just want to double his investment and was not able to get to the information that would save him his investment.

Well, when they look at other people's profits, they believe that this market is nice and easy to make money. They then went naive and invested in bullshit projects in this market, or believed in the scammer's gifts. They need to get to know this market thoroughly before deciding to invest, or they need to be scammed a few times and then they will be smarter and more careful than before.

The majoor reason why people get scammed is Greed and none other. Even when you have a clue of "how it works" and you still want to deploy the greed into it, you will still get the vibes adn feel the heat. Greed is the major problem that drags people into being scammed and until that greed is visited, it may never be a win-win situation for anyone who is under such attitude.

I agree that being greedy is one cause, but I don't agree if you think that there is no more excuse that those who get scam are all greedy. I have been scammed not because greedy, but because my mistake to invest without make a research. The proposal not like other scammers, the ROI offer not too high, even they are not promising to double my money instantly. Everything looks real as a normal organization. Just because i don't have experience about investment, i'm very easy got scammed in the past.

This is true, greed is one factor that if removed will reduce scams in crypto space, people get blindfolded with unrealistic rewards from giveaways or doubler schemes like ponzi, just to make quick money. If it doesn't look real, then there is no need to attempt it. It's surprising that someone sent 4BTC to the scam address related to Twitter giveaway scam as shown by whalealert tweet.
