Truth undiluted! I could remember truly as regards several vases of scams coming from wicked folks seizing the opportunity of many rushing into crypto to pitch their tents there cos first, many saw it as a way to make huge money so quick. Second, many sees it as their saviour away from some options like Real estate and the likes, where they think they can't get quick money as they can with crypto. Hence, we must be careful again this time around.
Yea that reminds me of 2017 market boom and many scam and fake projects came up and duped many. I also hear bitconnect is trying to open up again. This is time to be more careful
as soon as the market shows growth - there are many scammers who want to deceive people. I'm sure when even greater growth begins there will be a lot of people who will lose their money 
Really, I got to know about icenter late last year and I was told they are very legit and have a well organized blueprint for the investment plan. I am actually surprised seeing that I center is a scam.
because indeed sometimes projects that look promising and are likely to succeed can also be a scam. it all depends on the commitment of the developer and team. sometimes from the beginning they were serious about working on the project but in their journey they became greedy and escaped investors' money. I myself got scam by Icenter. I knew it was ponzi-like scam, thinking I can exit before I got ripoff BUT they were cleverer and exited before I could.

Cryptocurrency base fraudster is like hiding in the dark, thats why they are very active nowadays! In some intances they used their real identity to prove that the project or investment they offered is true and legit. so we better extra careful and the best thing to do is double check any platforms or investments site that you want to get involve or before you join or invest, observe precautionary measures in everything you do specially when the money is getting involve. scams are always present anywhere the fraudsters are just waiting the right time to strike and devour its victim. specially when the market was hot and showing impressive performance like these days so goodluck everyone.
Scams do not stop in real life neither, there are scams that have been going on with fiat for centuries now, even during Greek/Macedonian/roman times (even as far as Egyptian times) there were scam artists who stole money from people, so it would be naive to think that bitcoin or any crypto would stop that. Just like when crypto was used to buy drugs and hire hitman to kill people how everyone claimed "bitcoin causes drug usage!!", well no it didn't people used dollars and fiat way before bitcoin started to actually buy drugs, now its just provides privacy on top of that.
Scams will never end, it didn't end with fiat, it didn't end with banking revolution and it will not end with crypto neither, people who are looking to make a quick buck from fooling people will continue to exist forever.

That's true because scam projects and ico's would take this market's opportunity to conduct a project that is only fraud and scam. We should be aware on what ico or project we would enter, we should do first a background research about the project, team, and staffs if they are simillar with the ones who have scam accusations.
Actually last bullrun where bitcoin is so high many icos are succesful on paying members both bounty and investors compared to when bitcoin is totally dump.But scammers does not follow a pattern so they may scam this time around so becareful That's true because scam projects and ico's would take this market's opportunity to conduct a project that is only fraud and scam. We should be aware on what ico or project we would enter, we should do first a background research about the project, team, and staffs if they are simillar with the ones who have scam accusations.
it's easy, don't join for a new project because they will certainly commit fraud that takes advantage of rising market trends. while there are still many old projects that have not made payments even though the market trend has started to rise.

Thanks for sharing this information. However in reality, it's very tough to find the scan at it's early stage. Hope there will be some way to find out very soon to prevent this kind of scams.
It's easy to identify these scams if you're not greedy about quickly making a large amount of money in a short time. All of my promises to earn profits above 1.5% per day are all signs of fraud
need to be aware of such signs, even I don't dare to take advantage of 1.5% a day both in investment or trade, except with bitcoin I believe that because bitcoin has given me profits after what happened yesterday with the increase in the price of bitcoin.

Scammers always trying to steal our money and they use many ways to scams us. If we think many ICOs are scams, better invest when the project listed in exchangers and right now, IEOs more popular than ICOs
Not just when the price goes up we should always be cautious when it comes to our money specially in crypto currency,

Since last year prices dive, many scams also exited causing a double whammy to victims. As prices starts to pick up, expect another round of scamming to surface soon enough.

It is important we have this kind of message often on this forum. But as much as greed still lives, people will see the message and still fall victim of scam because of greed. My advice to everyone is to checkup all the existing alt and invest it. they are very cheap and affordable now.

The IEO currently has public support quickly based on what they have done related to the stock exchange when the project has finished. but that does not mean that the IEO is not a fraud, they may turn out to be bad if the opportunity arises. whatever it is, whether it's IEO / ICO, my advice is don't be easy to believe, always be on the alert, and if there is suspicion it's better to avoid it.
I myself got scam by Icenter. I knew it was ponzi-like scam, thinking I can exit before I got ripoff BUT they were cleverer and exited before I could.
You see, this is how many people that has fallen a victim of these scam ico has operated in this industry, they tend not to do enough research or go for quality project before investing, and they pick project randomly by just assuming it will be a good one or one that they can quickly take advantage of even if they are bad. The way you think is the way many other thinks out there, so you might not be lucky to be the first that will be successful in the game before it blows out, would it not have been better you invested that money in bitcoin or top 20 coin than the way you lost it deliberately on this project?
Its better to join in some IEOs from big exchangers. Its more legit because managed by exchanger and they must be make their own research before held IEOs. Many investor lossing trust on ICOs because too many scam in 2018 and hopely there is regulation about ICOs in near future
