The number of these scammers has increased a lot now. They are using telegrams to spread these scams and new investors are falling prey to scams. Using the name bitcoin mining will increase people's interest and send them money to buy packages. Although this tactic is old,but scammers are still using it.
A friend of mine has been scammed by such a bitcoin mining scammer. So I know this scamming strategy of scammers works.
That's because crypto is still getting prominent and it's still hasn't reached that many people yet so they can still deceive people from a lot of places. I do send new MO of scams that comes from this forum and the news I read to my friends because I know that it can help a lot for them to prevent themselves from getting scammed.
