is p2p crypto arbitrage for real or is it a scam?

What shocks me is that, why would you need anyone to do this? You do not have to do this with someone, it is not even about scam at that point, sure what that person is selling is a scam, but assume that it's real, and he is legit, still, why need him? Go to any p2p website for your nation, offer to buy at 5% discount, and then offer to sell at same price or even a little higher.

You would not get customers that easily, but you seek them out and try to find it, some people still do exist. In most cases, others are doing this too, so you would make a razor thin margin for arbitrage.

I`ve found someone who seems trustworthy who does p2p arbitrage. He says I can start with 100$ and I have to pay him only from the profits I make.

How? This text is not quite understandable, did him request for $100 to trade or invest for you, or did you give him some funds to trade for you? I want to make me to comprehend you clearly.

He also said that everything is secure, I don`t lose my Bitcoin, I just transfer it from exchanges.

That means, he asked to trade for you...do not involve your funds on what you don't understand, because they're many people who scam people through arbitrage kinds of trading, so you need to be smart to understand the footsteps of a scammer.

The profit is 1-2% per trade, and he takes 40%. But for me, this is still a lot of money. But what I need to know is whether this kind of business is real or is something scammy or a pyramid scheme.

Sometimes people look for easy people and penetrate into, so that they can scam them easily, so you meet the person online, it's obvious that the person is a scammer, and if it's someone dont know too well, have it in mind that person wants to make away with you money...I will advice you to terminate the discussion or transaction, because that's a move of scammers.

Hello,

So you do the trades let`s call them he tells you where buy btc from Binance and sell it on Poloniex . This is the main strategy I didn`t get into too much detail with him.

1. Because I need to know if there actually are people making money from p2p arbitrage or not. I`m guessing not
2. I didn`t say it was ad because everybody will say 100% scam. There are stuff that works even from Instagram and Facebook Ads.
