Yes, and sometimes the number of scammers is more than that. Therefore, investing in ICO projects is very dangerous when the information of the team is provided in an unrealistic manner. It is clear that an unemployed person can become a great businessman with a series of lies about his career.
This is an alarming situation and we should really be alert.
It wasn't alarming anymore, we've already known this kind of inevitable action that made by those people who aren't do anything but just to scam others. Feel disgusting how they'll exist but here they are, and they are actually a part of this growing market. They will be the ones to be blamed for ruining the market image but somehow, it is too hard to rid them out. Only we need to be careful and never get tempted for their fool offerings.

The scams are everywhere around you in every feild of work and frauds are commited even in fiat or legal currencies which create a problem for the general public in whole.The scammers have more open ways to attarct people in crypto world like ICO,airdrops,new projects which seems to be attractive and returns are promised but at the end they are scams and raised fund is transferred to their account which cannot be traced.So we cant be safe from them but just try to stay ahead alert from such scams.

yes it is true that scmares are the biggest problem in the cryptoqurrency industry, scamers have damaged the image of projects or other negative things. especially in the past year and this year, scamers are increasingly rampant and always have room for negative actions in this industry including the latest events that you have conveyed.

Scammers made the community of cryptocurrency a miserable one and gave 2018-2019 a worse year.
SCAM ICO- take away the trust of investors and their will to put money on the project. they made the ICO a bad thing to have.
There are and were some best projects we can ever have but still failed due to number of investors join their sales and invest.

Scammers are bad for the crypto world and for the blockchain world. But not only in the crypto world, but in normal life, there are crooks all over the world.

A person of average intelligence can easily recognize a scammer easily. You don't have to be a genius for that. Anyone who offers free money is probably a fraud. In this world, if you see anyone offers anything for "free" is probably a liar.

don't be surprised if there are many scamers around us, because the crypto space is very large and if there is someone who has skills that are rarely possessed by others, of course it can be misused to make the crypto ponzi scheme become rich. this is what we need to be aware of before doing anything when we are in the world of cryptoqurrency.

It is the biggest problem that we cannot fully stop even in fiat scammers are rampant but in crypto currencies they are more active as they have plenty of scheme on how to steal the others money.

That is only one of their scheme, copy the image of big exchange or reputable project and they will do their best to exploit money from inexperience crypto users.
I think it's time crypto must be based on law, so scammers will think twice if they want to commit fraud. if there is a strong law, then every person or project that will start will work to its full potential.

We know why scammers can grow big in cryptocurrency, that the freedom of underlying cryptocurrency transactions, then users who lack understanding and other gaps to benefit from new users, this makes scammers still exist. If there are some regulations regarding transactions like now where the exchanger has a requirement that the user must submit KYC, the user will be annoyed because the transaction will be more complicated. Here we need an organization or someone who wants to be consuled by newbie about cryptocurrency that smells of scam, than I know that someone who is new to crypto is definitely more easily influenced by large profits without further researching.

The problem is not the scammers but the ignorance and lack of knowledge of the people in investing. There are scammers if there will be people that are willing to get scammed but there will be no scammers if there are people who are knowledgeable enough to identify if the opportunity that is being offered to them is legit or just a scam. It is all about being educated in managing our own money and also in terms of investing.

Sure, scammers are a problem in the crypto world, but that is even greater because people in the crypto world don't learn how scammers work so they can avoid scammers, the most thought is how to get money quickly without thinking too that can lose quickly because scammers who keep waiting for the time to be able to cheat.

It is true that scammers are one of the main problem in crypto, I guess it comes along with one of the characteristic of crypto which is anonimity which makes it ideal for people to scam other people since they can remain anonymous. I believe this can be lessen if people especially those who are new in crypto will have basic knowledge on how most people get scammed and how to secure their money in crypto.

Even in real life there are lots of scammers, but we cannot control them as they wanted to have an easy money, they don't want to earn in a good day, so the very thing that we need to do right now is to be extra careful, we should not trust in cryptoworld, always give a benefit of the doubt, even he/she is your friend.

Scams are out there, be vigilant and always research with the project/person we are dealing with.

Scammers are part of the crypto problem but I don't know if they are the biggest. They are probably not the biggest. If the crypto community is already wise and informed enough, scammers will also be leaving. The biggest problem in cryptocurrency perhaps is the threat coming from hackers. Hackers are more brilliant and unknown than scammers. They can steal billions in crypto in a matter of minutes. They are harder to find than scammers also.

I think scammers will always come, because people who involved in bitcoin business is keep coming too. What we need to do is like make barrier for them as long they want to listen others. Because sometime there are people who not listen and scammed by scammers.

Scammers will always be there and there is no way for them to leave as long as there is a money involvement, there will be scammers.
Cryptocurrency or digital money is most likely the new target of scammers, but crypto users can avoid them by taking care of their own cryptocurrency inckuding their wallets and investments. As long as we are knowledgeable about crypto and the existence of scammers, we can stop their scam.

The decentralized nature of cryptocurrency makes it easy for them to operator as they want. They come up with different schemes, not minding the damage they are doing to their victims. Some people have in the process lost their entire life savings to scammers and today such people will always talk I'll about cryptocurrency. What I am saying invariably, is that a lot of people  have been discouraged, because of scammers.

Unfortunately, I really don't see this improving much at all in the future when more and more people start getting into crypto. It's been a problem for a long time, and scamming's an issue in almost every single online community. We can do our best here and elsewhere on platforms like Twitter to educate people about scams, but even though most scams are very blatant and simple to determine with a little bit of common sense, there's likely only going to be more and more scammers as time goes on. They're probably going to get more elaborate with time as well, and when they do, posting information about such scams here and elsewhere will help minimize the number of people getting scammed.

We should not trust Linked, Linked is a famous hub of con artist, this is where scam projects get there team, I have seen a carton where it depicts Linked as community of impostors because they are not verifying if what you re putting in your profile are all true, I don't have a premium account here and they don't ask KYC if you are a true professional.

Scammers are the only problem at this point in time which needs to be eradicated. Otherwise this will crush the cryptos. Regulators are struggling on that aspect only. Is there any easy solution for this issue?
