Laziness makes many people invest in projects without proper research or investigation, it's one reason why they fall victim to scam tricks or schemes and stupid tricks, many crypto investors are blind investors who don't do proper research on projects

There is no simple answer to this since even good projects have failed in the past. You can make good decisions by making sure you do your research and invest in projects that are bringing something innovative to the market but there is no 100% guarantee that you will not lose money. Scam in itself is a broad term and people use it for many different things.

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 a quick profit and they got made. Most scammers know the human behavior how they behave and they exploit it
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 That's why don't be greedy all the time because greed can't help you to think clearly about the project and in the greed your taken decision can lead your investment towards the loss. That's why those who mostly got into scams are likely greedy.

We have been educated and taught to trust and not to question anything: that's why we fall into pitfalls that easily cheat us.
agree. however we shouldn't trust anything specifically when money is involved. Yes we taught us to trust but we know to ourselves that we should have to make our own decision making.To best protect ourselves from being targeted, we need to be careful and use resources to help avoid scams.

Apart from laziness, get more profits immediately. This makes investors the victims of fraudulent projects

People wants profits instantly and it means not all investors will be able to do research on projects, the desire for instant money in crypto space is too damn dangerous, learning is the best tool but people tend to throw that away until they are in loss

But some fools carry money without analyzing and studying the topic. Just because they were promised a big profit. And these are two big differences. People who are competent in investing as a rule invest a small part of their budget. Greedy fools will pour in with their last money and take loans

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.
Agree, greed, and not having knowledge about what they doing is probably the top reason why a lot of newbies are getting scam in cryptocurrency and other projects. Also, the experience is also a thing, after I experience different kinds of scams I just already know how it works and I don't get scam anymore. That is why we have this forum so that we could share our experience so that a lot of members could avoid other mistakes.

it's certainly because of greed and have no knowledge about the project. even if you're not greed you still get scammed if you don't know anything about the projects. as example, DeFi is in hype, a lot of projects are DeFi now. you don't know anything about DeFi, but you joined some DeFi project without knowing anything about that and its future. scammer will take advantages for that.

I think the main reasons why people scammed by those who take advantage of the others is because of they trust people in this industry easily and also to are lacking of knowledge about crypto, coins and tokens that make them vulnerable to scams.

People are getting scammed easily because they trust easily. Before they invest, they do not check the background of the company or crypto they are investing in. They do not examine the profiles of the manager and staffs and they get deceived by the promises and websites of these cryptos.

How could that someone can be taken advantage off if ignored the call to deal or participate? It also the user's fault why he is got scammed. If certain user ignore the suspicious project or any kind of free then he would not be scam. I know theres a lot to take before you got scammed but the sure way to avoid it is simply ignored and dont think twice and doubt about it being scam. That thought could really scam you.

yes that's right, greed, ignorance and trust that make people fall asleep so that they fall into the deep mud, the need for thoroughness and knowledge in each project that is followed will reduce the fraud they spread, and when we fall into their trap, we will lose a lot of money to give to con artists

crypto is unpredictable and even legitimate projects can turn into a scam in the end. entering crypto means that we are ready to lose money, all we need to do is be more careful before making decisions
I saw too many projects even they're legitimate at the start but turn into a scam in the end because of bad development, lack of funds, or price going too low. Honestly, scam is like the final exist to a lot of bad projects and that's why a lot of people got scam easily.

1. Greed
Greed is indeed the main source of someone who is easily fooled. 2. No knowledge about the project
That's right, knowledge is the main key for someone to be successful in the world of cryptocurrency and other businesses. 3. Trust
Today, trust is very valuable, only some people can be trusted.

Those who are scammed most of them are normally new to this crypto space. And most of the scam projects do some good promotions. So they attracted very easily and ended with those scam. And and there are many many scam projects are in this market. So it's hard to avoid them the only thing you can do is do some research before your investment only that can save you from the scams.

Yes, even some good project turn to scam after all so we can't never completely sure 100% that all people fall for scam project is because they're greedy. A lot of people although very careful and checking everything left and right but still got scam anyway.

Good projects become a scam because they cannot innovate to always defend investor confidence to always use their projects.

agreed with your opinion. trust, when the project get hype, you see the bounties are using their signature and you see the coin/token sale are nearly reach the target, you'll immediately spend your money to invest on that project (greed). in fact, some project put the fake tokens sale progress. it will looks like almost reach the target, but actually they only sold a little bit of their tokens. the project just wanna scam you.

For me the most is greed, majority have been scammed cos of their intentions of trying to get rich quick without doing little or nothing and then followed by no knowledge about the project and they feel they can do it on their own without much help thereby ending up scammed
