This is what we are always vigilant in following every project, so we always say over and over every project that we want to participate in must make deep research so as not to get caught up in the fraudulent project as you feel right now, hopefully this is a lesson for the future and do not be easily tempted by the big offer they give but we have to look at the whitepaper they make and the team that manages the project if it is not open in general then this should be  We avoid, from the site you follow does not give us the confidence to participate in it.

               Ouch, that has got to hurt. But don't worry man, just see it as an investment in learning more about this industry and not as a loss. You are not alone and some have even lost thousands of dollars through these scams and don't even learn to be cautious. Don't be like them, learn from this and get back what you lost and more by being smarter with your investment plans from this day onwards. While shitcoins are shit, these shitcoins can be a good gold mine if you play your cards well. Do research before investing and avoid investing huge amounts on shitcoins or any startups regardless of what you find. Just a little percent of your total capital for any shitcoin is good. Since they tend to shoot up fast. Some even go beyond 1000x. Anyway, good luck on your future endeavours and sorry for your loss once again.

I'm sorry for the bad experience you had and I hope we can learn from your experience not to get scammed.
More and more projects can fool us today and it is only by doing some thorough research that we can do to find the right projects that can be profitable in the future.
It may not be easy, but we have to do if we still want to invest in new projects so that we don't get fooled by fake projects.
In addition, we also should not spend a lot of money on investing in new projects because we do not know if the project will succeed or stop in the middle of the road.

I lost 430$ to a metaverse scam project yesterday, the project looks a lot like a professional job to me, everything was so detailed that you can't easily smell any rug pull, here is the project's website https://markmeta.finance/ but unfortunately it's a scam project, you can buy but you can't sell so here are what I find out
Can't you judge it from the name of project? The first time i heard the name of project from you and my impression is if that was a scam project. The name itself will represent anything about the project. So many scammers are using non sense name. You're loosing caused by the dev was pumping its token use the funds that raised from the sale if there was a sale. Can you tell me whether the dev was deing a public sale before? The dev will be doing this after they got what they targetted. it seems like you are getting trapped by the scam project again. You must remember that never try to invest in the random project like that. I never heard this project before.

I'm sorry for you, but it's also worth looking back at why you believed in things like this in the first place. 
What is your compelling reason?
At first glance, it's no different from other copied products on this market and now in this space, new projects are easily created but you should think that products that a high school student understands about Programming can also help create these. So blame yourself and see it as a lesson to not repeat those mistakes.

1. The price of this token kept surging and surging, there was no retrace or whatsoever which to me is a red flag, the whole chart was a straight line aiming for the moon.

2. Telegram channel was restricted, no one can make comments or send messages, another red flag that I don't get suspicious over

It's too late already but hope someone learn one or two lessons from this
The name of the project itself says that it is a scam project. Why do you think they named their project "Mark" and "Meta"? Mark Zuckerberg and Facebook Meta? They are using all those hyped terms to attract users and then scam them. Oh, and don't invest in any new projects that has the term "finance" on their project. All those projects are scam.
And you already saw those red flag, then why still invest? To try your luck?

at this time it is very, very difficult to avoid fraud, especially fraud in new projects and at this time the fraudsters have had a very accurate trick they made a very convincing project without any blemish for us to say the project is a scam,


A hard lesson learned by the OP on this new hype.
Some people can really make a very comprehensive project, where you won't think that they are just here to ripped off users.
It may be the first for the OP, but it may not be the last that you will encounter this kind of scamming.
It will be in different form, not in meta hype but another hype. This is why many people are losing hope in this market once they got screwed and it is their hard-earned savings, some are even getting a loan just to buy the hype.

Probably not the last time. He may be encouraged again, but the fact that he experienced this kind of scam, he will be more furious

in choosing assets to invest his hard earned money. Investors who mistakenly choose the project that they've invested their money even they

have done doing their homework, remember that scammers are also doing their own research on how to allure and make their prospect to

believe in the sincerity of their works.

Every loss will be painful and angry at once to the site and also ourselves. Regret is there, losing money and also trust.
I am not really familiar with the site, that is new enough. Have you understood why you cannot sell again? Not tradable or the feature is still not active? or not listed?
If that is totally a scam project, I agree with @Upgrade00, you can make scam accusations on the section. PLease give also the details of the scam, the evidence, and also all information about the scam project.
This will probably help you to at least share your experience with other people here and warn us if there is some misunderstanding from the site, they may reach you, and others.
But, if this is a total scam, just let it be a very worthy lesson. Sometimes, we cannot differentiate the scam and legit projects because they look very promising and convincing at once.

making money with crypto, or altcoin, unfortunately, is not easy as it may seem.
this is probably an aspect of our industry to take into account. it seems easy but .. it is not!
losses should not be painful. you have to invest only what you can afford to lose.
I don't want to lecture you, but I hope that what happened to you is an example for you in life and not only related to crypto life ...

Are you sure the volume is generic? You should always check the market orders for it.

2. Telegram channel was restricted, no one can make comments or send messages, another red flag that I don't get suspicious over

It's an automatic red-flagged. There should be no reason why the group becomes restricted.

Anyone should be able to voice out their concern.

There's no such thing as "too late". The next one you will do is the start. Since you have already learned your lesson, you are more careful on your actions the next time you become interested again in investing at Metaverse.

Such experiences teach us always a bitter lesson not to repeat the same mistake again and be more cautious next time while investing in any project. I feel sorry for your loss but most of us have also been scammed many times So due diligence is always very important while investing.
It thought people lessons but it is very possible for someone to make such mistake again and again, what is most important is that people should first not be greedy and try as much as possible to avoid scam and money loss, but some people just do not have the knowledge and experience to avoid scam. That is why it is good for us to learn and read everyday how to avoid such fraudulent people like that. We should stop to just go into new trends without learning the risks involved. This is just the beginning of metaverse scam, some other people will still be victims of metaverse scam as they lack the knowledge of how to avoid such scam.
Being scammed is something that we can't avoid but we can minimize from falling it if we are always making a thorough research before we decide to invest. And in fact, a good researcher has always an edge when it comes to decision making as they create wider vision and views than those who often lack of knowledge and comes to the market unprepared. So OP, just keep investing. Losing is always part of it but make sure next time that your profits will overcome your losses in the past, that is more important.

This shouldn't be happening in crypto, the more of this kind rugpull news we get the more it get newbies to want to stay away. And you don't have to always learn the hard way, the amount of money you lost although may not be too big but I'll say it's too much to invest in such a project.
Before investing in a project we have researched thoroughly on especially those selling on Dex, I'll advice everyone to buy less than $10 worth and try to sell to know if you can actually trade it, I think that should help reduce losses.
I think we should also consider that good projects nowadays are already rare to happen and that too good to be true projects are definitely pure scams. However, as what you said OP you there were no suspicious activities listed in the project and that made you believe that its legit. But knowing that its a still a new project, you should have due diligence in looking for any unreasonable or suspicious activities and you should have invested just a small amount that you won't regret if the project ends up as a scam. Maybe this experience will be a lesson not to trust easily as scam projects tend to look like more legit projects than the real legit ones.

you should just stick with platforms like binance and the likes if you really trying out investing, this kind of shitcoins, either gonna be being manipulated so hard and even gonna turns out and become rugpulls that just happened to you recently.

this feels so similar with the squid game altcoins scam that couldn’t be sold after the token price has reached some point and after that the rugpulls is happening. regardless, you could only regret it because as you know once you invested into shitcoins and it becomes a scam there is literally nothing you can do with it. actually the main reason platform like coinlist exist solely for preventing this kind of scams that frequently happened even more specific in BSC that is already heavily infested by this kind of scam.
This gives you a less of you must never ever deal with the scam token like that. You must not complaint because if you have invested in it that means you have dealt with the risk

Well, most of us who are in crypto made a few similar mistakes... we invested in some projects we believed, but they turned out to be scams from the beginning! I agree with you, it's a bitter lesson... but it's a lesson and we should learn from that, every experience counts in the end! Of course, some of us made more than one mistake, but in my case, the last few mistakes were minimal, never invest too much in something new and unproven!

it was sorry to hear that but sometimes, someone had made some sacrifices to test the credibility of the project and it was you who is unlucky and become one of their victims. Even though we are too careful in choosing projects to invest in, doing research, and everything we do just to be sure that we are in the right investment. But somehow, some scam projects are also able to show that they are reliable and they gain trust from us until such time that we surprisingly found out that they are living us and scamming us.

I'm sorry to hear about what happened to you. It's really frustrating and heartbreaking to lose your funds that easy but still serves as a lesson for everyone. Just be skeptical next time and try to do research before releasing or investing huge funds. Don't worry because you could still look for better and legit projects in the future, just be wiser.
