[AniviaBtc]

Youtube, Telegram, and Twitter are the most popular apps where scammers are getting their victims off, so be careful when accessing them.

Especially that newbies are eager to earn easy money in cryptocurrencies and they are getting victimize easily by fake giveaways.

Always remind yourself as newbies that there is no easy money in an investment and you really need to study and become knowledgeable about it in order to make it profitable.

they are present in facebook too .
they can be a bot spamming plus scamming but they should be terminated later on because major platforms are strict and wont allow such things like that .
 this causes a head ache if your the owner of the post because legit comments can be hardly seen and it gives a bad impression to your content but if we are only a visitor we can just ignore them .

So when im watching some bitcoin videos on youtube... doesn't matter what it is... could be about bitcoin or cnbc talking about bitcoin, i see in the comments section, people making comments like

btc is the future

i made a ton of money investing in btc with so and so person

then you see someone post someones whatsapp or phone number and say contact this person if you want to make money

telegram

how btc is better than stocks

First off, all these comments are from people or are they bots?  I notice even on twitter when it comes to politics, you see these accounts post comments where it sounds like a bot... then you see other users who post the same exact thing.

I assume the scam here is you then contact that persons whatsapp or phone or telegram, then they ask you for money... then you get scammed?

Bots comments and reviews are everywhere even if you go on amazon or any other shopping website you see them, and it could be used either for scam or either to boost sales/profit, and this has lead to make them not a reliable source of information, so whenever you want to see a review about something make sure to make more research, and ask on forums for opinions.

I quite often find such people, the modes vary, their target is mostly telegram with market developing technology and messaging applications via mobile phones are getting faster and more innovative, creative features not a few people experience fraud.

For that, everyone needs to be careful in getting to know new people on Telegram, let alone providing information such as: password, user id, pin, your personal code can be a trap.

don't believe anything if they DM us and offer big profits because most of them will do scams. always have to ask forums and always learn things about crypto on various social media. maybe that's one way to avoid scammers. and also never give the security key to anyone. a lot of people take advantage of the benefits of new members who enter crypto.

The big profits should already warn you or make you suspicious about the offer because there's no such thing as quick profit especially in the present climate of crypto, either they're trying to shill some coins so they can profit from you or they are just going to scam you.

The most dangerous scammers on YouTube write comments. And in general, you should not believe in too favorable offers.

You're exaggerating, you don't click it and they won't scam you, that's simple. If you think it is then probably you are so gullible to click on them. The most dangerous are those that you don't even know have already infiltrated your system and has started stealing like malwares, social engineering schemes, trojan and ransomwares.

Most of these are bot accounts and if they are a hot chick or most of those that commented the content or the post are some kind of rich guys, you know them. Most people in crypto wants to be anonymous as ever and you bet it's more than 50% as far as I'm concern. Most of what they'll asked is "Do you know what's Bitcoin trading is?" or I have this investment that could double your money is a short period of time.

YouTube has this ads as well that happens to have a crypto conference and they'll leave a message on the side where there's the link, avoid that one too it's a trap to scam universe.

If you see lots of accounts with repeated same comments, then I guess it's a scam. Although it is already so obvious that it's a scam, but some desperate people, or those who're quite naive and don't know much might get interested in those comments. I suggest that you should never believe in those kind of things, since I can guarantee that those are fake. Even if you contact them and they ask you money, as long as you don't give it it's fine though. Or maybe they're asking for your wallet and such, if you don't give them anything, you won't be scammed. But if you believe and give or do what they want, you will get scammed for sure.

There are many opportunities for profit here, that's why many people are curious and want to get into Cryptocurrency. And this opportunity was used by them to deceive the beginners, and that too many people succeeded and many people lost. 
Here we have to be really careful, the many social media such as YouTube, Telegram, Facebook and others provide a wide space for scammers to commit crimes. Find the right information to start investing, and anything related to Bitcoin and Cryptocurrencies, so that we can secure our money.

[TelolettOm]

Many scammers will always try to get money.
ANd the beginners become their most victims to get their money.
But, in fact, some that are not beginners also become victims of scammers that are very convincing. Moreover many new projects that seem very legit but in fact, they are scams.
And about in the youtube scam, there are also many victims that lose their money because of the scammers.

When there is value for a product, then the same will make scammers give it more attention. Same is happening with bitcoin and few of the cryptocurrency. The growth is tremendous and this makes them look for some way to get it. Some use the legitimate way to get make money out of it and some try the opposite way. This is where scammers make their way into cryptocurrency. These days the scam through YouTube have increased a lot. Also without any fear they're posting it to live stream.

The main goal of scammers is always the same, they will look for ways to make money by cheating. Because the crypto world is a new thing,
so many people don't understand how the crypto world works. This is used by scammers to commit fraud, because it must be admitted that fraud
in the crypto world is very easy. Because there are still so many beginners who think that crypto can provide instant wealth, this is what scammers
take advantage of. Therefore, most of the victims of fraud in the crypto world are newbies who do not have the knowledge and experience in
the crypto world. Many scammers choose platforms that do have a lot of users, one of which is YouTube, they will make a video promoting
a scam project. So be careful in choosing projects for investment, especially if we find a very good promotion of new projects on YouTube,
don't be immediately interested. Always do analysis and research before deciding to invest.

You forgot to mentioned Facebook mate as this was also being abused by scammers nowadays as they are using gaming platform to engaged in crypto related scams.

Especially that newbies are eager to earn easy money in cryptocurrencies and they are getting victimize easily by fake giveaways.

yeah the idea that they will earn easily is the reason why they are being lured to invest and become a victim , not only by scammers instead mostly by hackers.

Always remind yourself as newbies that there is no easy money in an investment and you really need to study and become knowledgeable about it in order to make it profitable.

Sometimes people need to become a victim first before finally learning what is the right treatment in the investment industry because they are very stubborn if being advised .

don't rely to those influencer who had small followers in the internet because for sure there will be some bots in it or should i say promoter with a multi account to keep pushing their project using good feedbacks especially in youtube.. So you better seek for those who have thousands sub for more info.
And for your questions wherin which is better between bitcoin and stock? Well they're both good mate amd very risky.. But the most profitable is crypto in my personal opinion.

we don't know if he is a fraud or not, because sometimes he will only give you signals about Chart Analysis for free or trial. but, personally, I don't advise you to send them money if they ask for it after you contact them. Nowadays there are lots of scammers who try to take your money in the name of big profits and things that interest you.

Yep, you can find this on YouTube, Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and most of all, Telegram. they sometimes offer great benefits and again, I advise against investing in them.

however, it might be different if they teach you about analysis and trading. think carefully before you spend your money. I still highly recommend learning the freeway because I think there's quite a lot of such material on the internet, or maybe you can take a course directly with the experts.

very true, i agree with what you said. big profits quickly only if we dare to speculate or by gambling. but it all also has a big risk. if I myself prefer to find coins slowly by following the bounty, or if I have capital I prefer trading.

Not only YouTube you will find such comments on most of the social platforms like Twitter, instagram or Facebook and you will not find any comments related to the post but someone saying this person has helped me gain huge profits within months or days and he is best crypto expert out there and i am be like are there traders who only make profits only? You will not find any perfect YouTube videos related to bitcoin knowledge as most of them are crap and share fake knowledge so just avoid them in any manner possible that can help you stay out of negativity.

Never trust too much at a thing on the internet, especially when it comes to money....the majority of people who are deceived are because they are too trusting and greedy for "instant" things.  getting rich from the internet is not an instant thing, everything needs a process as well as getting profit from bitcoin.  ^{(btw, i also once made a thread that said not to give your money to scammers)}

[Cling18]

They're bots and that's just another strategy to fool and scam people. Whenever you see them comment links that would redirect you to a certain site, just try to avoid it. Contents like that should be ignored so they couldn't have more victims anymore. Bitcoin isn't a scam but these people are trying to ruin its name.
