Introducing scammers to the forum.

[Adbitco]

Look if you don't know those who always have the intention to scam go more deeper in searching for places that talks about bitcoin, and forum is a place that is so popular when you google anything related to bitcoin here would pop immediately, they will make account after getting themselves familiar with whole environment they would decides on the easier area where to scam people.

Scammer can spend 48 hrs reading to discover how to scam people, okay come to think of this have you ever imagined how they would build a website that will be paying people 10 percent daily and also, have you checked the rate of people who jumped in to use it.

Like people are too lazy when it comes of making findings and minding the sets of website to go do their investment, everyone just wanna seat at a place and let their money generate quick money for them without know that they must undergo series of studies before having to trust any website.

So it's to those who come here make an account start telling people about wallet recovery, naturally you and I knows that those things are just a common way to get people trapped into their shady games, and only newbie like them may likely fall victim of their scam because I know those reputable members can never try any shit with those cheap scammers.

I know some scammers are intelligent people who read a lot and can discover this forum from their research while trying to gather information, but it is possible that some of the people we are referring to the forum are scammers, and we now also have to be careful of the people we refer to Bitcointalk.

I've seen a lot of accounts banned due to fraud, including those from higher ranks as well as beginners. I'm sure that these individuals would have made another account and invited their friends here, so I don't think the problem of scammers is new to this forum.

Avoid referring the forum to friends and even family who we know have tendencies to become scammers, have affiliations with any known scammer, etc.

You make a valid point, but not all of our friends or family we know that they are into this act, so what do we do when they ask us to link them to a website where they can learn more about cryptocurrency? Because in my view, this is the best place to learn about cryptocurrency.

Where did you see accounts banned due to scam? In this forum, scam is no moderated and I am not sure anyone has been banned because of scam. The punishment of scammers is red tagging and not banning of the accounts.

Talking about Op, some people are not scammers but in the way of life they can change to be scammers. So, how will such a condition be handled, if someone you genuinely introduced to this forum turns scammer.

I wonder how many people here have scammers as friends. Without being told, people are generally cautious around friends and family members who have a criminal record. I don’t agree with the idea that scammers are being introduced to Bitcointalk by members. It may be difficult for newbies to find the forum mainly because Bitcointalk is not visible on google search engines when you search for Bitcoin. But scammers have a different motivation to search for crypto communities and anywhere they can find victims for their scam.

Well, scammers are smart enough to find this forum. And if they will find it hard to scam the forum members, then probably the best solution is learn to enter the forum as well and join the forum discussion. So it’s not surprising anymore that the one we accused as scammers are definitely the forum members as well. If we won’t be cautious and wary of our actions and posts, then scamming will never be far possible to happen.

As a collectibles sub nerd for nearly a decade...we get noobs (day 1 noobs) who say stuff like "been just lurking for years and decided to sign up today".  It's kinda creepy, but an important lesson in privacy.  I won't go in to detail, but Loyce always stressing privacy to me...well, I get it. Fully..now     Scammers can get much about you without the need to sign up too, and they will find this forum, that you can be sure of.  

I have a difficult task when scam busting/showing findings in that it's a catch 22...good for the community, and bad.  Both helps and simultaneously teaches scammers.  ( I like to write them little vulgar love notes from time to time at the end of my posts, as I know they are always watching closely).

This is false. Which account do you know that’s been banned because of its involvement in a scam? I find myself repeating myself in several threads. Is it that members do not realize that scams are not moderated on the forum? No one gets banned for scamming or promoting a scam. DT members are obligated to give a red tag to these accounts making them useless in respect to participating in business deals, signature campaigns, contests e.t.c.

We should not but scammers will always look for a place to scam because a scammer will always scam and they always get better even if they are busted they will learn and be better, we read in the media that one scammer was caught and he has pending cases of scamming in the past.

It's our duty to protect this forum clean but we cannot stop people from joining and using this platform to scam people so we have to be aware of the character that we refer, scammers will always come here even if they fail or busted because they know that there are newbies who easily fall to their trap so we old members should expose these scammers when we see their offer as something dubious.
