Newbies be careful with old members, when they PM you for business.

what you should do is to check their feedback and from there feedback you will know the kind of person they are.

Checking feedback is essential but even accounts with good feedback can be hacked or sold. That is why your point about making the conversation public is so important. No reputable member will ever slide into a newbies PM with a secret investment deal. It is almost always a red flag regardless of the rank or trust level. Thanks for the warning

Since the beginning of my journey on this forum I've never received a bad or scammy email from any old members on here, they are all from newbies or jr members.

Fortunately for me I don't believe people easily maybe this is a plus as to why I don't fall for such people, but I really don't believe that old members will want to scam using their old account.

They are the one that knows better that if anything implicates them they will receive red tag, and this will ruin their forum reputation that they have build in the past years.

I am not saying that old members can't scam, the truth is they will never risk their accounts doing so, they will rather create a new one and use it to scam.

Most of this old members that are messaging newbies in other to scam them has already been given negative feedback by DT members in this forum, so when you see a PM from old forum members

being reputable here doesn't mean you have integrity. Everyone should beware!

If those they say they are reputable members in this forum don’t have integrity what makes them reputable member?

I hope you don't fall for that. Their Bitcointalk profile makes them reputable, but there's life beyond that.

If anyone couldn't bring a business proposal to well-known members and also couldn't display it publicly, but silently PMing unsuspecting newbies, my brother, think twice.

It doesn't matter if an old forum participant or a newcomer wrote to you, if the proposal concerns a financial issue, you should simply ignore this message. If this is a really good offer, then it will usually be publicly posted on the forum, rather than being sent out via private messages to unknown forum participants.

That's the simplest way to avoid anything that would later lead to regrets, I mean if it's actually a genuine business then for sure the business owner would want more exposure and post it public but once it's shady with huge offers that looks unreal then that's when they get private and starts targeting users who let their greed get ahead of them.

Bro I can’t fall for that, yeah you are absolutely right their Bitcointalk profile makes them reputable, and this days it looks like it’s very easy to build reputation in this forum and get green trust, I don’t really see that as anything if you can’t bring any business you want to have or do with me open them forget about it, you can PM me and tell me about a business I will make huge amount of money. I usually don’t believe and I may even bring you out to the public if you do that to me so other people would be very careful about you. I know they are doing it to Newbies in this forum, and I will encourage newbies to bring them out to the public.
