Be extremely careful now that the year is coming to an end

[AYOBA]

Scammers are always trying to be one step ahead of us, let's be careful and always be on guard, before it was links we need to look closely to make sure that it is the right one, maybe changing of O with 0 or similar, now aliexpress.com as we know it isn't even aliexpress.com anymore.

Seriously the scammers are always on a dip research just to find a way on how they can be able to scams people in a different direction, and it will be good for us to keep focus on what ever we come to do so that the scammers will not get access to our funds.

Especially this forums i know so many peoples are making mistakes when ever they come to do transactions by copy wrong address, is good to be cross check the address where copy before past transactions, because it might be that the address has changed to the scammer wallet you don’t know, is very good idea to take note whatever we come online.

Scammers are not like entrepreneurs and don't have business to do seriously so they don't focus on very specific targets with narrow potential victims. Scammers do their scams with massive scale as they want to increase their potential victims and hope that some will fall to their scam traps and lose money.

You can be their potential victims too but if you read and know of basic scam types, and control yourself well (don't let your greediness leads to scam traps, be careful in practice), you will never be victim of scammers.

We will not know how the scammers work because they can use many ways that looks normally like the other methods. They even can use very basic things to scam their target and unfortunately, that basic scam can make people deceived. We must really be carefull when we see something that looks too suspicious and not just directly click the links or participate because we need to ensure everything is safe.

Our safety will be in our hand so we must check everything before we decide. We can not get tempting from what they say. I often see an ad telling get fast money by doing simple thing. But that does not mean that way can give us money.

Double check for the wallet address is a must to prevents the scammers. They can use something familiar but that is a fake to trick us. Just make sure and check everything before we decide to make us safe.

This is one of the reasons I am sticking to bitcointalk. There were lots of tactics scammers use I never knew existed until I started reading about them here in this forum. I am very fortunate for not falling victim to scams a long time ago. As long as people do not know how these scammers operate, they will easily fall victim once that opportunity comes.

That's why forum members should check scam accusation board regularly even though they do not write anything there. By visiting the scam accusation board, you will know many kind of scam methods that are scammers using to scam people. we cannot afford to lose our assets and then learn from that mistake. We should learn from other members mistakes and update ourself with the information available on the internet. If you know how scammers can approach to you, it is easy to avoid them. Some OG people who knows before that it is a scam attempt, they even troll the scammers by putting wrong account credential

I don't think it has anything to do with the end of the year, scammers will steal your funds anytime if they get the opportunity to do so, don't give them that chance by using a hardware wallet or an airgapped wallet to store your funds. Managing your funds in an online wallet is too risky, and even if you believe you are very careful, you might make a mistake sooner or later. Online wallets should only store funds that you need for spending on the go.

scam always being in existence but I know that what o p is saying is right because this time around that is close to the ending of the year many scammers go deeply to scam people in order to get their Christmas money to celebrate with their loved ones that is what the original author of this trend he saying that every person should be extremely careful so that will not be victim of scam because the high rate of scam is much and the Mostly this time that the month is remaining few months to come to end I'll be also be in the same clue that we should know the kind of investment will go into and the kind of response to people especially people that is unknown to us

That's right. Because the end of the year usually has a price spike, although not significant, but it is believed that we are in the years where the bull run will occur, it could be the end of the year or next year but what is certain is that we will enter that moment in the near future considering the halving period has passed.

When the bitcoin trend goes up, of course all altcoins will also go up and this is where many hackers or fraudsters take action in various ways to deceive their potential victims. Because usually the end of the year is the right moment for fraudsters to launch their actions even though fraud can happen at any time. The point is that everything that is expressed by friends here, especially OP, has a good purpose so that we must remain careful in using links, sites or when connecting a wallet to any site must be careful.

Everything that brings about positive and negative trends in the crypto space always gives scammers an opportunity to scam those who are not well enlightened about the system, and the people who are always victims of such scams are mostly those who are either looking for a fast way to make money online or those who might be searching for the best opportunity they can take advantage of online. Why are some being trapped by cheap staking and custody services that promise what they don't offer?

End of this year is not worth to worry because my belief based on Bitcoin history is 2025 will be a bullish year for Bitcoin. What will happen in last 3 months of 2024 is not too important, 2025 is more important and we need to have good plans for next year.

2024 is a bullish year so it's impossible for Bitcoin price to crash in last 3 months of this year, one reason I won't worry for the end of 2024. The second reason is 2025 will be more bullish, more parabolic upward for Bitcoin.

If you understand about Bitcoin history, you can take advantage of its bull run.

When Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies rise hackers and fraudsters use different tricks to cheat excited investors. To protect yourself always check links and websites carefully be cautious when connecting your wallet and stay alert because scams can happen at any time. Warnings from community remind us to prioritize safety and invest wisely.

They are bad guys who want to do bad jobs but you can learn about security, have good practice and make these scammers disappointed by failing to touch your devices, accounts and bitcoins.

Towards the ending of the year is the time when gifting is being done very well if we should compare with other months and this is one of the strategies scammers always use in getting people because the mind of people it is believed it is time to gain things very easily. I think it will be best if people just focus on the investment and never to be carried away with the trick of scammers. I know their is no resting time for scammers , they operate at all times which it is possible for people to fall to scam at anything but it will be so terrible for anyone to get into the hands of scammers,  people just need to be very careful and just understand how things works.

Yes year is going to be end and people give gifts and are generous. But they should be careful from scammers who take advantage of this time. They promise easy money but it is trick. So invest wisely not in "get rich quick" schemes and check offers carefully.  Research before deciding and be cautious of unexpected messages. If something seems too good to be true it probably is. Protect yourself and your money from the scammers which is crucial otherwise they have much plans to steal your money.

Gifting is kind of gestures among people who knew each other, have different kinds of relationship with each other. If it is from your family members, relatives, friends, it looks normal and less risky but if it is from a stranger, you must know that risk is higher and your must be more careful with your action.

It's a favorite season of scammers to set up their scam traps because they know people tend to enjoy funny and happy time so they are less careful than usual. Time of year end, Christmas and New year is perfect opportunities for scammers to do their jobs with better success rates.

They promise easy money but it is trick. So invest wisely not in "get rich quick" schemes and check offers carefully.  Research before deciding and be cautious of unexpected messages. If something seems too good to be true it probably is. Protect yourself and your money from the scammers which is crucial otherwise they have much plans to steal your money.

If people know about this classic method, by using "Get rich quick", "Too good to be true offers" to scam, they will know basic principle of avoiding scam. The vital principle is simple

- There is no free lunch.
- There is no "Get rich quick" method.
- There is no valid "too good to be true offer".

If they receive such offers, they quickly know it's scam, and they will not be scammed, if they are disciplined and careful.

The month of December is a month of general celebration which people use to give gifts to their love ones in their various communities, because they want to make them happy and some people don't care where the person got the money from to purchase all those gifts. Even the scammers know that this is the season people use to take any risk in this community whether the project is fake they don't bother, which scammers can take advantage of that to scam such people that have the mindset. Yes, there is no resting time for scammers operation, because they use to succeed most in the month of number and December which is the reason why people need to keep their details and documents save and be careful the type of project they are investing.

We have three more months before we say goodbye to 2024 and both pros and beginners are gearing up for the coming uptober like many people are calling October, even if we failed to get a uptober, one thing is certain, a full blow up top is coming.

Now imagine going through all the hassle since the beginning of this year and you ended up losing everything you've worked so hard for?

when it approaches the end of the year, it's always the time when people want to achieve a lot of the things they where unable to get from the start of the year and somehow, it brings out the vaulnaurability of both the attacker and the prey and in a bid to get more, you might end up loosing even that which you've gotten. Phishing link has been ransacked on different forms and hackers and scammers have woken up in Thier numbers and are currently looking for individuals to steal from. As you're trying to be careful with links, know that it always goes above the literal ones you can think of.

You have to answer questions like, How secured is the asset on your device if for any reason your device gets stolen and compromised? Do someone have access to your security system? How much do you trust such person?
The days are generally evil and when it gets to the end of the year, it gets even worse if you're not taking adiquate security measures that will protect your funds and even you that's the owner of the funds.

Scammers are just the regular people here like all of us but as they are investing their time in the knowledge, instead of them to use money to fund the idea to reality, they use the idea to lure people that are ignorant of what they create like phising website, making people to download trojan and malware thinking they download the real software and many more like, even social scams is rampant nowadays, people fall for high profile when they launch new coins.

Anyone can be their victims but if you are been careful enough, the less you will come across their useless tricks. Sometimes even Defi are not safe for people to use, today for example Eigien protocol social handle was compromised and the scammer was busy twitting fake information, it took a while before people knew it was a scam but it was already late as some people has lost money to the scammer(s).
