scammers use too much brain

[Fullcoinese]

this is indeed not a new scammer's way, everyone needs to be reminded of the events and how scammers carry out their illegal work.
a beginner there is a quick learner. but some feel crypto is a safe place. therefore scammers will always be there to find victims. I wouldn't say those who have been in the crypto market for a long time won't be exposed to scammers. but maybe the type or method of scammers will be more difficult to deceive experienced people.
I hope everyone will be careful with their assets. don't be easily fooled by offers that are very profitable in an easy way.

Scammers always have been one of the most creative people in industry. On one hand they did not invent nothing new, on the other, they adopt old tricks to modern situation. And I even think that some people even have special cells in brains, that tells them "to try how something work if they do things different way", and part of the scam are done after curiosity. But when curiosity and creativity meet greed and laziness, people lose money.

My best advice is do not visit any link through Youtube, some are not really legit links and a Youtube account might be hacked to lure people, I have visited Youtube most times only to detect that the Youtube video is tampered by hackers, there are more than one version of the video but the difference is original links swapped with fake links.

If you have some doubts just search for how to stake dodo or other token like pancake 🥞 swap you will see multiple videos with the same person in each video. Especially this face

The problem is that scammers use verified accounts from Twitter, so they have the seal. Twitter users see the name Elon Musk with a seal on its side, leading them to imagine it's a legit giveaway. After all, that is the purpose of the verified accounts, right? I don't think it's all exclusivity of people's stupidity, but also a clear signal of Twitter system's flaws.

People will have brain know giveaway is literally 100% free without any deposit lol, so if there's a people get scammed just because of this, they're really careless and I believe they will get a good lesson after it was happen.

Verified accounts are useless nowadays, actually it could be a conspiracy where the popular people are trying to scam, but he will create a drama if his account were hacked! No one will realize it and he has no way to know the person who own the address.

I think you give them more credit than they deserve. Most often it's a single scammer creating a new way to scam people, and then everyone else just copies it, and the cycle repeats every time new technology appears or just someone finds a new way to scam people. And most often it's not hard to recognize a scammer if you have more than 5 brain cells.

I know you all are know this scam 
I am sharing some images where this scammers made over 1btc and 8eth

Looking at the website alone gave me a weird feeling and I'm sure others felt that too. I see no reason why someone will be willing to just give out free crypto most especially in this present market state and the funny part is that they will request that you make a certain deposit amount into their wallet address claiming that it's for gas fee. 😂

but beginners send crypto to these addresses like dumbs

The gas fee scheme has been used on newbies and it seems to have been effective. Aside from newbies falling for this type of lame scam I think some other members who are quiet acquitted with crypto still fall for them due to them allowing greed to take over.
Most people seems to lose their sense of thinking whenever they see free money or other valuable belongings, at that point in time all they can think of is ways to get it without bothering about knowing on "how will this company/person be able to generate this amount of money?'

[cloirecrom]

not weird honestly, this is what happen when people don't use their brain on making decision. they just got swayed by greed not using logic how this is possible true or not

I believe the issue isn't that scammers are smart and use elaborate schemes (or whatever using too much brain means) but that humans on average don't possess the necessary knowledge to deal with things like this. There used to be a time when the vast majority of the population couldn't write, read or count, and then the time when they knew only the very basic stuff taught within primary school education. Now, children are learning plenty of things, but are learning perhaps too much of some and not enough of others. In my country, economics is not always taught at schools at all, and when it is taught, it's usually very poor. Basic financial management and familiarity with popular scams should be taught at schools, so that everyone gets the basic knowledge about that. Another thing is a skill that should be encouraged way more at schools as well: critical thinking. Schools focus so much on teaching what is right and punishing wrong answers that is numbs the natural tendency to question things which children usually develop at some point. So when people grow up, they often don't question what they are told, just as they were taught at schools, and this leads to many problems, including falling for scams.

First thing is; if they want to victimize more people they need to level up their 'game'. Second is, many people are easily fooled by the idea of a "shirtcut to becoming rich".In reality, there are no such thing as 'easy money'; you have to work hard for it. Many people are falling for the same scheme ; send an amount to this address and get a reward. This still works because people does not think of why do platforms give something to people? Are they that generous? Sometimes it is our way of thinking which endangers us.

That is simply it. Always think as much as possible;, if something's sounding unrealistic why not avoid it or study for it to determine your asset's safety? than to just go with the impression that there is a way to win big time in this industry.

It is not that scammers are smart, it is that people are too dumb and fall for this scammers trick.  I bet the scammer has several people confirming the first transactions paying.  Then those naive investors believe the testaments of these so-called early participants, the hacker probably pays some strangers participating in the system making  readers and viewers believe that he is really paying, then when the scammer thinks he got enough, he will then run with the money.

It is the greediness of people that makes them lose more on this kind of scam.

The harsh truth, but it's the truth, these scams are too obvious, and it can be said that all mistakes come from lazy greedy people who don't want to do but want to have money. I never blame the creators of scams, I will blame all the greedy people who just want free money. As you said, if we are not greedy and make money with our own strength, these scams will soon disappear. As long as human greed persists, these scams will never go away.

I've noticed that whenever there is a cash transaction, scammers are nearby. Another thing I've noticed about scammers is that they constantly come up with new ways to con people, and despite the warnings given, many will still fall for their schemes. They particularly like to use social media to lure victims, constantly boasting about the investments they have made profits from, among other tactics.

Just report them as a scam. YouTube needs better safeguards in place as these should never make it onto their platform but I've reported half a dozen over the past month or so and they get removed pretty quickly.

I think the OP wanted to point out that scammers are often very intelligent, rather than exposing the scam scheme here.
I have to agree with him because I have seen very sophisticated ways of fraud, which required good detailed planning, and excellent communication skills. so I wonder why they don't use all that knowledge and skills for some legal jobs. why do they prefer to take other people's money fraudulently?

To be honest it's not a very sophisticated scam at all. It's the basic send us your money and we'll double it scam and I'm not sure how people fall for that. The most impressive thing is how they're gaming the YouTube algorithm to show up on people feed's and recommended videos consistently.

nice scam idea, scammers use too much brain

The victims are not also using their brains, this offer is very old, and if they only do research on this kind of scheme like checking Google about scam Cryptocurrency give away, so many people are greedy and gullible, especially those new in Cryptocurrency investing I hate blaming these newbies they don't deserve to get scammed they invest in Cryptocurrency in the hope of changing their lives, but end up getting scam.

[libert19]

I don't know if people in comments are quick to judge, have you never been scammed? In my early years in crypto, I was just as gullible and fall for several scams then eventually learned. I think it will be same for these people.

They already existed long before Cryptocurrency existed, in fact, they long existed long before the internet was conceptualized, scamming already exists since time immemorial, they thrive on the greed of people they made a business out of people believing what will bring them healthy wealth and fame, we cannot stop these scammers and they will continue to scam, but we can prevent ourselves from falling to their traps and this is by educating ourselves and controlling our greed and knowing how to do research on the personality of people who offer you products, services, and profits that are good to be true.

Perhaps because it is basic fundamental to us that no one will double our money. These individuals do not require online investments from strangers if they wish to give money. Anyhow, I tried it once before to be honest, it was during my first year in crypto. Because I was curious. It was a small sum, comparable to my usual wagers on casinos. Also, it was not a doubler, which was pretty obvious; it was somewhere between one and two percent per day. I was also trying to figure out crypto mining at that point.

The more technology evolve the more scammers became more adopted to the technology and they frequently do some good updates so that they can deceive people to their new methods created. Although there are still classics scam still became successful so new investors should be aware about this and also always think about that if the profit is so big while your investment is small that is a big red flag.

I don't want to make rebuttal, because I think you are right on this point. The more sophisticated the technology, the smarter the scammers. Basically scammers are smart people, but they don't use their intelligence to get money properly.

Although there are still classics scam still became successful so new investors should be aware about this and also always think about that if the profit is so big while your investment is small that is a big red flag.

There are still too many people who are greedy, so they will do anything to get money the easy way without thinking too much about the risks. So there will always be scammers and their victims.
