Are you wanting people to share their stories of how they've been scammed? And it's pretty easy to avoid: just don't send your money to scammers.

Common sense can go a long ways on it.  Does it sound  to good to be true, are they promising a huge return, etc.  Use escrow on trades, especially if low trust or new person you are buying from.

Other things on miners try to use a company with a long history, and also try not to pre-order.

Send your money to them and you'll find out. The key is not risking it. Use an escrow.

Sending money first to noob accounts is a surefire way of getting scammed, using a trusted escrow can minimize the risk but you're still putting trust into someone who could run off with the funds.

The only time I've been scammed was with a hefty chargeback by Paypal, haven't used Ebay / Paypal since.

[Buziss]

I haven't been scammed, but here are some general advice to minimize your chance of getting scammed.

1. Stay away from too good to be true trades.
2. Use escrow whenever it is applicable.
3. Keep your bitcoin safely in your own wallet instead of storing it on an exchange or gambling site.

Always protect yourself!

[Jamie_Boulder]

My trust has been abused once or twice long before Bitcoin making me very vigilant in who I trust these days in all matters of business.

I prefer not to share the story but offer advise that your trust should never be easy to gain.

When in doubt, use a trusted intermediary or middle man.  Bitcoin payments and transactions are irreversible, so no the risks going into a purchase or deal.

if you have substantial coins please put them in cold storage .do not leave them in an exchange or in a hot wallet because malware can steal it

1.) Do your research before pre-ordering any mining equipment.  Or better yet, avoid mining all together.
2.) Avoid HYIP's like the plague (i.e. bitcoin-trader.biz), they are all scams.
3.) Avoid investing in bogus assets on unproven digital asset exchanges
4.) Research, research, research!  Can't emphasize this enough.  If your gut is telling you something is too good to be true, it more than likely is.
5.) If/when purchasing anything from anybody off bitcointalk, always use escrow if person your buying from isn't a highly trusted member of the community (be aware, many long-term accounts have been sold on the open market, so just because somebody is a Hero member doesn't mean they got that way legitimately)

2. Where you scammed and how?

3. How can you get scammed?

[virtualx]

2. Where you scammed and how?

No.

3. How can you get scammed?

By sending BTC to a party who does not intent to offer you their services. Use escrow.

Don't make any trade if a new site or a new person insistently asks you to send bitcoin first. If it is an old and trusted site or person, well then it is up to you to say how much you trust it.

Loaning money to people doesn't seem like a very good idea on here. Many people pay back but also many people just scam even it if it's tiny amounts and you will lose money eventually because your profits are so low on the people who do pay back.
