Yes there are more crypto charity organisation right now after the pandemic has started I am really not sure much true it is, I am not saying all are scammers but yes there are people's who take advantage of the situation as well.

Also I went through an article where FBI clearly states that any crypto donor who believes they might be a scammer should first verify about the charity and it's organisation, it's so indicative of human nature so be careful guys.

Given that case. FBI should have a method on how to bust these scammers. Using covid19 as a tool is not funny anymore. I dont know why these people think of it as their way of scamming. Dont they have conscience in their doing? If this continue cryptocurrency will be flagged as as worst industry for investment related.

Do you have idea OP if those people have accumulated funds from the victim? FBI should be able to identify and sort out for this.

Saw the news days back, well it's left for people to know what they are doing online, they should abstain from greed calls, the reason why I don't get scammed anymore is because I stop giving out, now I only know how to take no matter how good the offer is.

The FBI should make an action because the fraudsters are leveraging the fears of people during the pandemic to steal their assets. It's unbelievable because it is no different, they never missed a chance of fooling people. Even in times of crisis, even though they know that plenty of people are suffering and dying from the virus. The majority of them even use fake donations to make money. As an outcome, people are losing their assets for believing it.

I want to believe that traders that often visit this platform shouldn't be easily scammed with this covid-19 stuffs going around.  We have been warned some weeks ago of some unscrupulous elements that is taking the advantage of this pandemic to scam people by creating some fake coronavirus coins.  Unfortunately, some fell victim before the developers finally disappeared.  We should just take more caution and steer clear of any donations or trading relating to this.

Never try to donate our money into the suspicious party especially for people who have said so many claims about the covid token. I have seen so many scam tokens that used it to get the hype.
Just try to refuse any PM that will come to you. I mostly got PM from scammers on the telegram

That's the best thing everyone should learn, how to know a scam attempt and avoid it! Because whatever we do, we can't make stop scammers! They will find one or another way to scam people! So, the best thing everyone should do, educate themselves by learning from mistakes! Greedy nature is very harmful in every sector of a man's life!

Scammers are everywhere. And at every opportunity, they reappear to get people's money. Therefore, each of us should be very careful and always have to think twice before making a move. It is always necessary to be more careful about money issues.

Only donate amount if the fund raising program is organized  by reputed services/ individuals. Don't trust the newbie fund raising programs because they know this is perfect moment to steal thousands of dollars from rich since they are willing to help the people who sitting from the home itself.

[bttmember]

Yeah, scammers do not spare any news or event at all and they take it as an opportunity to rob people especially when people are looking for alternative income opportunity or want another source of income, these people unfortunately are the easy targets of the scammers, we should be careful and do all the basics right to avoid scammers.

Yes it is true there are many cases of fraud that occurred either in the midst of the Covid-19 outbreak or before Covid-19. In this case we must always be vigilant to protect assets. We must protect the private key as well as possible so that someone does not know and apply security to the trading account. Always be aware that Scammers will always be present in any industry

[tabas]

Those fraud schemes were even there since a few years ago. Us, who are aware of this can easily avoid them but the newbies will have a hard time determining for these frauds because they don't have experience or they don't have someone to guide them and tell them which is the fraud and which is not. In these times, it's ok to avoid being greedy too. We're all in need and we want to have profit but being greedy can lead you to become a victim.

It is very risky if donating to organizations or individuals who have no reputation because it is very high the possibility of getting scam or the funds we donate are not given to help fight covid-19. So the best way is to ignore any fundraising that you think is not from a well-known organization and always check whether the website/anything is official.

[forexandcryptoauditor]

We should always be careful investing in new projects. Current pandemic situation has added fuel to scam industry. Using the the current situation, scammers are targetting investors which are new in this industry. Covid-19 has also increased awareness in cryptocurrencies more than before.
This is the time, we should be very strict selecting any project for investment.

[Hippocrypto]

This is the crucial time of our lives, we should be careful for whom we're dealing with, because scammers is everywhere. Online virtual world with anonymous individuals will find any ways to intrude on their potential victims, that's why it's more important to be vigilant. Fraudulent activities will arise and take advantage of the covid-19 pandemic, just to use it as their escape goat to gain sympathy like crypto donations for whatsoever reason.

[Nasonn]

Organisation who don't have an offline offices that are well know should not seek for donations. Scammers are lurking everywhere tryna use this opportunity to get peoples funds everyone should be observant about these activities.
