We can't blame some people who are lazy on attending class about cryptocurrency and blockchain technology. Sad to say that, many people still fall on this kind of scam and we're all aware that there is no instant money (or else if you're going to play gambling) if you're going to invest in bitcoin. Most of the people today are greedy to earn money that's why it is a reason why they also fall on different scam and for the sake of our money, it's our responsible on making research on this kind of investment. In fact, it is not easy to earn money as you think and before they can earn profit they already lose a money. We should put an effort on studying cryptocurrency and time to know on how it totally works.
I already witness some of fellowmen in my country that fall on this kind of scam which they will gonna double your money in just a week and even it is quite possible still not advisable especially if you don't know the person where you gonna send your money. Be wise, Be responsible if you really don't want to end up losing huge amount of money.

Maybe people in out there think bitcoin is like the other investment, which they will get a return in some period. If they can learn more about bitcoin, they will find out that bitcoin is not the same as what they think, and if they want to make a profit from bitcoin, they need to trade or hold it for some time. They can buy and sell bitcoin at some level price and sell bitcoin at a higher price, or if they cannot understand how to trade, they can buy bitcoin at a low price and hold it until bitcoin price can increase.
But many people don't want to learn, and they want to make a profit in a short time without making anything. They think that their money will bigger in a short time, but if they don't do anything, they will not make any profit.

it will be the hard way mate, since people not using their brain enough to see the truth. Delusional maybe since they think they want to double or more their investment on a fast lane. But they didn't see the result will be darker than they thought before, simpleton people whos think they all know the best but never had to hear others says. They lucky to meet guys like u who tell the right from wrong, hopefully, your journey never stops at this point and keeps forward to make people safe.

Newbies will always be there therefore, scam will always be there too ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) . That's the reality. Since there are new investors, they don't know anything about investments. The problem is that, most of these newbies are lazy and don't want to do some research first but they will just throw their money into an investment and if they are scammed, they will be angry and will post anything in the social media like "They've got scammed" and the like. If newbies are researching first before throwing money, the chances of being scammed will be reduced. TBH, I didn't experienced getting scammed ever since I joined in crypto world. This is because I tried to research first and created my own basis and red flags before investing. I hope that most of the newbies will do what I did too in the past.

Once you got scammed, you will never fall on the same trap again. I do trust people before when it comes to investing buy right now I learned the best lesson in an expensive way. Newbies are prone to this and if they fall on this they should not stop investing and instead learn from their experience. Scammers are doing their best, and investors should know the importance of their security, and always keep in your mind to save your keys on a safe place.

This means experience is the best way on how to learned in some scam activities or to be able to avoid of being scam because they say that if you have been ever to fall on the scam for the first time then probably it would be hard to fall again on the same scam on the second time around so I say that it would be really unreliable if you will fall again the second time around that you will be encounter the same scam activities. That's why you are saying that you learned a lot on the best expensive way of learning that you can have.

That is the major problem of newbies,
The first thing that comes to their mind when it comes to bitcoin is how easy they can have their return of investment, this is also the main reason why they most likely the victim of scam.
This is something that will never be removed, as long as there is a newbie, expect that there is a scammer that will try everything to victimize that newbie.

You can also learn from the experience of others, Reading some feedback and experiences about the service or schemes that you are going in. Being aware of the symptoms of the possible scam schemes will make yourself defensive at your position of being the possible victim. Of course, new way of scamming is invented every day that's why every one of us need to be cautious with our surroundings and the person that you are dealing with. Prevention is better than cure anyways, It's hard to recover the losses but you can avoid it.

If people keep greedy about money and not want to do some hard works, newbies or not i think it is no matter because newbies usually know about the risk too but when they attracted with do nothing and make earning, they can be trapped into scammers that open investment.
That's true but the thing is how they will be able to avoid those scammers in order not to be victim of it? The best way to do is to just do proper research and don't be too greedy in terms of money although we all know that we are all here for one reason only and that is money but come to think of it, there will be no victim of scam if the people will be more educated and the people is more knowledgeable than the others so that they will not be able to fool by someone else.

Most people want to make money and become rich sitting on a coach at home. That's why "how to make 100% profit in hour" adds will always be attractive for them. Different Ponzi schemes have been used since the 1920s.

Hello guys, back in 2017, during the heavy bull run, I visited my former office and meant some friends and told them the need to key into bitcoin. One who is now occupying my former position at the bank interjected and said "someone just left here to to lay complain how he paid a huge some of money to a bitcoin seller who then scammed him", bitcoin was never paid by the scammer. I asked them to send the person to me for a free tutorial on bitcoin and how to safely buy and store it, I never hear from them again till date. The victim had try to bitcoin because he heard he will double his investment in a week, I told them that is not how it work.
After getting and reading repeated complain of how persons are been scammed in my country while trying to buy bitcoin, I decided to make 4 banners on how to learn how to safely buy/sell bitcoin and other cryptocurrency, and to address the wrong notion about cryptocurrency. I got some calls and follow ups. But most are not interested in buying and holding but want to give me money and be giving them a weekly or monthly returns on investment, when I tell them that is not how it actually works, they will reply they have found a program online that pays some weekly % ROI, I try to stop them from putting their money there, they either stop picking my calls or tell them they are okay with their findings.
I am just weak and heart broken how people are lazy to attend class that will open their mind and eyes to existing realities and set them free from lifetime mistakes. I am dazed by their foolishness in the issue of finance. My banners and office is still open but won't force anyone to learn. I hope they don't learn the hard way.
Is this really true what you are saying or just trying to make up a story? If its true, then wow, you are doing a great job to make people aware of bitcoin and keep them safe from getting scammed. If they don't listen to you, then there is nothing much they can do. Let them join the HYIP and pyramid schemes. Once they get scammed for a good amount, they will come to their sense. At least by then they will have learned their lesson. You tried, that is only what matters in the end!

I empathize with you. People are so quick to pull out their funds when they know that they will receive an ROI in the shortest period of time but too slow to assess if their action will bring them disaster. Ignorance, greed, laziness, trust, curiosity, stubbornness and impatience, are the characteristics these scammers exploit. I also experienced the same thing with one of my friends, I already advised them to keep their investment to a minimum, even though they never listened to my initial advice that the one they are investing is a scam. But due to their greediness and trust to the one who recruited them, they investment ballooned to more than $50k and now they asked me what they should do to get their funds back because they never had any encashment after two years of investment, all their profit are on their Dashboard but unavailable for withdrawal. I told them that there is nothing I can do but advised them to get a lawyer for their issue. I think this friend of mine learned it the hard way.

People are always looking for a quick way of earning money. And this is the reason why they will always fall for all form of scam. Almost 90% of High yield investment program have turned to using crypto as a payment processor with the major aim of stealing from the masses. Many of this scheme that offer high Return on investment can be addictive just like betting. Have you ever wonder why someone who has been scammed is still participating in such scam. The reason is simple, it is addiction. You think you can be smarter than those theives that started the scheme

Give me one place that I can get an instant profit thought it, is there any? I'm sure there is no one place that could get profit moreover a huge profit in an instant way. They should remember it and even they should known it before they start to spend money.
Here, I could say that in 2017 ago when there was many people who got scammed because their knowledge not because of bitcoin.
Simple put, if bitcoin was stamped as scammer place then you wouldn't be seen the people here or the people who got a lot of rich through bitcoin. Bitcoin is same with another investment place, such as stock exchange, property even gold (I can equated it right now).

Yes it is very impossible that scam will be eliminated completely because there will always people who wants easy money with less work. Scammers on the other hand, are very good at persuading people which is why a lot will also fall for it. For me, the best way to avoid getting scammed is to always do research and do background check of the project before investing money.
Way back before, the scammers are quite having the huge advantage because most of the system is quite simple. They could just use different phishing sites and just target almost everyone. But in comparison to what we have for today. The scammers are quite reduced because of the regulations that we currently have for many sites. This leads to a conclusion that we have more chance of today, to avoid scams with the help of systems. And this means that, if we get scam by someone, technically, it could be considered as a human error and mistrust to someone we don't really know. I don't think that scammers are reduced because based on the reports, scammers are multiplying as beginners are also increasing. It is not easy to prevent being scammed most especially when scammers are experienced and professional. It is not good also to just let our fellow newbie trader to become always a victim ot those scams so we should give them advice that will improve their security in trading. Avoiding human error is a must but it should be lessen and focused on the security of his transactions. Most especially, technology are really advanced and it is hard to stop them for doing the same thing over and over again.

One does not need to be very smart but only needs to know the basic and methods these scammers use and never let their greed to engulf them. Those who were scammed that still participate in this kind of scheme are the ones who does not actually lose money, instead, they profited from it. They are the first one to join this kind of scam and gets profit from their referral. Any sane person will never do anything that will only bring them loses unless they experienced a good profit from it. Meaning, those who are end of the line of these scams will never join this kind of scheme again, but those who got a huge profit will always do.

Oh yeah, so far as they are not ready to learn and they are also not willing to work hard towards making their own money this is exactly what is going to happen. Growing up in this industry i have also fallen a victim to these scams but i learnt my lessons and have been good all this while.
Why would you offer 0.1BTC to someone who claims he can give you 3BTC lol

now many are like that and many more HYIPs circulating within 24 hours can get a profit of 500% that's just a hoax because at the moment there are a lot of new traders who don't have much experience being fooled by HYIPs and project scams, there must be information for new traders so avoid cases like that.
