Unfortunately, often newbies are falling into this style of traps. Because newbies still think that they can easily make large of money in less time. Because they do not know about the market and the crypto world and do not try to learn, these people become the target of scammers.

That's one reason and another is that those criminals are sweet talker so newbie easily fall for it as if they are magnetised. But as soon as they snap up, it's gonna be too late as scammers have disappeared and has taken their money. Expensive lessons to learn here in crypto so it's better to be vigilant from the time you step in, otherwise you can still fall for the scammers trick.

It's about people's psychological state. Because people want to make easy money. Bitcoin is perceived as the gateway to easy money. They ask someone for investment advice and then they lose their money. This can be conscious or unconscious. Everyone needs to raise themselves.
It is major problem that people want to earn money easily and this way they often meet with bad people who make scam with them so find good people while taking advice and invest with well known projects as it helps to reduce the ratio of scamming victim in crypto market. Don’t trust on fake promises just give your best and work hard instead of finding ease.

It is because of greed! Most people know and understand if something is a "scam" by just analyzing it. But, people still fall for those obvious scam because they get greedy. They see opportunity over there and then they jump for it. They know about the risk of getting scammed, but they kinda wants to dare. Think about those ponzie schemes. We all know those schemes mainly works like in first come first serve basis and rest of them gets scammed. Those first people make insane profits. Now, people due to greed wants to take those risks and thus eventually falls for the scam.

That is so true. The amount or rewards of scams are always this big that they force the investor to at least give it one try. Even after having all the doubts, they still prefer to believe that one percent of chance for winning big amounts. Other than that, people who try to go for shortcuts and desire big changes with little to no effort, fall victim to all kinds of frauds, whether in digital or real world.

Sometimes people are complacent about the rapid benefits of crypto. When in fact, in crypto there is no way to get rich quickly, there are many diverse fraud cases. And one thing, don't always believe in someone you just met.

I believe that ignorance and greed are main factors pushing investors or bounty hunters into the hands of scam projects. People know there are many scam projects in the market. But they are easily lured by most attractive offers made by scam projects and eventually fall victims of them. Stopping being too much greedy, and conduct a research to avoid scam projects.

I think it is because they are lacking of something like knowledge. Maybe, they are believing the scammer even though the reasonings of it is far from the reality. They believe on it because they are lacking some knowledge. Also, always remember that you should not trust anyone so easily because they might stab you behind your back.

It's a very sad moment when we're hearing victims crying and lately found that the good deal they've found is a scam. Everybody should also inform the others that they are not just on twitter anymore but they're also living in almost every social media platform there. The newest now is the giveaway that they do through livestream on youtube channels with making their channel names look like the real one. So be careful and don't be the one that will be affected by those scams.
Maybe those were the people who has been very hopeful so they took the risk that it could change their life with that certain project, they were very helpless and they have seen something that satisfied them because of the promises from the core team, they didn't think well that they should consider what promised has been fulfilled already by the team. It's not hope if they are taking the risk, it's about the greediness that they've found with those promises without validating it first if it's a legit act. It startled upon reading those fake reviews and success stories that these scam investments bring to their victims. After all these well publicized scams, if people continue to pour their hard earned money in to the scam projects, then I have to say that it is their fault. Lack of experience and greed by the investors are the reasons why they get scammed so easily. Hopefully after getting scammed one or two times, they will learn the lesson the hard way and may become careful in the future.
Yes exactly. If they will never learn from the first experience or so or won't listen to the experience of others, it's their choice.

Only newbies could easily fall victim to these types of scams as they heard that they can easily make money in crypto that’s the reason why they jumped in immediately without thinking twice. Its a lesson for some but other still don’t learn from their mistakes.
Even not newbies can still fall in these scams as many are still hoping to earn in easy ways, we can't blame them but they should not also blame others when the project is proven scam, there's always a cons and pros in our decisions. Sometimes others are able to manage to find a good project but still get to be scam later on so always be watchful in where we invest our money and trust. Often times it is the greed that make investors to fall for scams but sometimes, people join scam company because they were invited by their close friends or relatives or even their superior @ work. Due to the trust formed between friends, people would not suspect whether the company their friends is advertising is a scam. They skip doing research about the company because of that reason.

Yes that is one of the top reasons why scammers are still fulfilling their objectives and i also think greediness and being desperate to earn big money is also reasons of being scammed because of course greediness is such a commong thing for all of us but the moment you cannot control it that is when you will likely to fall for scams while in others are lacking some skills that they make them do or enter projects that they should not enter and that shows them being so desperate about things.

Yes, I agree with it. People still suffer from scams. The only reason is that people see fake posts and believe that and people trade with them. Due to which they are scammed. And most of the scam is through social media. So I'll have only one suggestion. If you want to trade then do face to face trade. Nobody can be trusted easily. So Be careful and trade. Have to trade with trusted people. Avoid trading with strangers.

Cryptocurrency attracts all sorts of scammers due to the ability to anonymously steal funds in cryptocurrency from their users anywhere in the world. This makes it almost impossible for law enforcement to find them. Moreover, in most states, cryptocurrency has not yet been legalized and it is very difficult for law enforcement agencies to deal with these types of crimes. To successfully deal with cryptocurrency, you need to have great knowledge in this area. Many are in a hurry, in a hurry to quickly make a profit and become victims of fraudsters. In any case, this will happen en masse until states join forces to combat this type of fraud.

I agree with you, there's no such thing as a perfect trader or investor. Those are scam ways of collecting people's funds as well as paid telegram groups for trading signals. Most of these things don't work out in the real world.

People who still fall prey to some of these cheat scams are basically greedy folks who want to make millions within a day. Rome was not built in a day people, you got to work hard to expand your income. Never trust anybody with your funds with the notion that the are going to multiply it by some percentage for you. If you still want the get rich quick scheme then i think you should consider getting into margin trading.

It's unusual to hear about people getting scammed of crypto up-to now. As an investor in crypto by now, you really ought to learn how to carryout several research before investing in any project. Although that's what greed always lead to. Feel no sorry for those that think crypto is ponzi scheme

Those who are victims mostly are those who are new here especially with bounties or airdrops there are still random of people who still get scam because they are mostly new here in the forum or new to cryptocurrencies. I guess newbies also have here one topic that they can ask or read some warning about getting scam here so that it can lessen or totally avoid those scammers.

It is not only applicable to new one only , now scammer are targeting experienced individual as well . Those who are new to crypto are easy target because of their greed to instant double their money or get free money. Experience individuals are also getting targeted by well planned ico and website which look genuine.
