Newbies are aggressive when they find something interesting in a certain platform that offers easy money.

Well they gotta do what they gotta do for the money, it's easy money who else does not want that? but unfortunately most of them are the end of cliffs.

But it is really obvious and suspicious if it asked you for sending money first, that's a 100% scam.

It's working like the money doubler, I'm 100% sure that all of this is a scam, I don't know why still many people are falling this such old crap. This is created by ancient scammers and still working these days, Idea of which tells me there are dumb people.

Exchanges now can be easily made with fake volume, number of users shown, liquidity, and everything. Scammer gets wiser and wiser every time, they even spend money to make things more looking legit and pleasing to the eyes of everyone. But for those who really sees what's behind will surely know how things are being fabricated. You better be cautious with everything on the internet.

CRYPTOCITIZEN $CCASH

There is no doubt that it is not a scam. I don't trust any free satoshi site except freebitcoin faucet site. Other site will always ask for a deposit when you will try to withdraw your btc. Let's think it is legit but why would I have to deposit 0.016 btc? Why would this much big amount? So, becareful before depositing your hardly earned bitcoin in this such kind of exchanger, websites, faucets, or any gambling site.

Fake exchanges pop up the same way fake projects pop up every day. No matter how careful newbies want to be, they still fall victims to scammers. I also think traders should not keep on registering on every exchange they see or are introduced to. Take your time and do a proper research before registering on an exchange. Also, you should block and report anyone as spam who tries to send you a DM that you did not ask for.

I have recently signed up on the trust(lol)coin exchange because someone here was saying there was a promocode for a few free satoshis, I redeemed the code and tried to withdraw, it said I had to play atleast one roulette game before i can, which is what I did, and it said I had to deposit 0.016 to prevent abuse from the promo code. This is obviously a Scam!

Be carefull Newbies! don't fall for this crap!

I would not recommend for any trade or any thing with new exchanges. Because it's too much risky for any kinda deal with new exchanges. I also faced some problems couple times when i was trying to sold my coin.
Now days joining in giveaway is really risky task. If you are not careful much scammers will loot you for sure. The simple thing is no one will give you free money, if some one try to give you unrealistic offer then it's better to stay away from it.

Their reasons to make you deposit seem legit but those kinds of reasons are scripted. don't get yourself so excited when you see such offers. Usually, when it involves BTC giveaway or like this one, you will end up losing your money than getting something from them. Remember the world of internet is different, scams and fraud are common. we need to be vigilant and use our mind well to think the other way around. Because believing with these kinds of people when we don't really know who they are it's the worse thing to do.

This is true. In digital space it is kind of hard to know what is real and not. Giveaways and other compensations may be thrilling but we should always doubt everything first before trusting something or someone.

We needed to keep reviewing everything before we proceed and participate, not just because there's money
that involved but also if they are asking for KYC.
Very important to keep things being checked never to go blindly due to your greediness, it will lead you
losing your money or hacking your information.
Hackers and scammers are not stopping they are around and always taking chances, once they've seen
opportunities they will grab it right away.

There is no reason to chase hard after a few free Satoshis. If all it takes for you to sign up and play a game on an unknown site are a few Satoshis, the tendency is that you might fall again for a scam like this.

What if it says you just need to deposit 0.0005BTC instead of 0.016BTC in order to gain access to a promo code which provides you 0.001BTC? Would you have made a deposit?

Nowadays, especially in the crypto space, treat the word free as a warning.

Yes not just sometimes but mostly those who offer free is unreliable and should be avoided because it is just a part of their marketing to get many people fall on their trap. They offer free but if you are already there ,you need to pay first before you can receive the free coins or whatever they are offering at the start before you joined. Scammers and crooks are just around with different tricks,so be careful guys not to fall with them.

Whenever and wherever I see the word – FREE, I’m always very careful. Scammers these days are using so many different approach to scam people. They create things that will look legit and be promising to give you something for free and when you sign up for it, they will ask for a deposit before you get that reward.

Although I know that some legit websites makes use of a similar approach where they will tell newbies to deposit and play to a certain level to be able to cash out their bonus, but it would be best for you to make use of a website that has been around for a long time and also legit than for the one that is still new and not known by anyone.

I encountered this one before. The interface of the site was copied from other exchange. Here in forum there are some newbie accounts who posted some threads regarding trustcoin exchange. The site will require you to input your email, username etc. and then the promotional code. After that, you need to play before you can withdraw it and deposit to claim your prize. Be careful with these kind of sites. Do some research and don't let yourself be a victim.

it is much better to not engage in that kind of schemes, it will just lead you to pure losses that you can't retrieve back. Instead of relying on those fake rewards and promo codes, it is much better to work on your own in a profitable way. Scammers are smart and wise and you will not fool them because they are the one who fooled people.

If you have to deposit 0.016 BTC into the exchange, it is definitely a scam. This method is widely used by scammers. Promo codes with a few free satoshis are just nonsense that will trick people into being fooled. I harp everyone here can know about a method like this so it is not easy to believe.

Instead of paying to scammers, it is better if you invest 0.016 BTC or trade in the market, it will be better and more profitable.

This shouldnt be here in the Bitcoin Discussion board, if you are pertaining to the beginners and newbies out there, better post this on Beginners and Help board to make the forum clean. You can find the move button on the lower left most part of this thread.

actually this must be in Scam accusation section but first OP must provide some proofs and be reliable in all details he wanted to say for the safeties of His own account because this is a serious case i believe.

With regards to the topic, it is really obvious that such promotions and referral are just scams, maybe not explicitly soliciting investments to continue the direct withdrawal, but rather make you go from point to point and deceive you that you earn this huge amount then just require investment in the end. Investment in general isn't that bad, yet it must not be that huge. Take Roobet as an example, which they only require a dollar investment so you can withdraw, but you can still have the dollar back after withdrawal.

actually if it is good to be true mostly it is scam,and this is not far from others.

Good that you use Roobet as an example because the site is totally legit and has proven their legitimacy when they make way to compensate Yahoo about the Bug their site face year ago.

Another common way to scam newbies (at least for me since I've seen many ways of scammers to scam newbies and unfortunately many are falling for it).

If you are one of the few investors who aren't falling to these kind of kids way of scamming people then welcome

. Unfortunately not only newbies are falling to these kind of shits but also those people who are here for long time already. Its because of temptation. Investors are very tempted to these kind of scams and they are willing to deposit some BTC to have it.

Well like I always say and will say it again, an investor will not learn if they will not experience it so let them experience getting scammed so they will learn from it

The ignorance most times is the reason why people fall victim of these scammers. There is no such thing as promo code in an exchanger. Instead of promo codes, the bonus will be attached to your personal account at certain given conditions and then you acquire the bonus upon meeting such conditions or tasks. Be more careful.

It's not just newbies that fall for different scams and frauds. Of course giveaways are always tempting and there is where we need to be extra cautious. Everyone is looking for the best and most favourable exchange but we ako need to have im mind that security comes first. And it's good for community to share every information about specificirati exchange or other service that is not legitimate.

this message is applicable to all because even other users might fall trap to it. We know that there were too many exchanges nowadays and it requires you to input password and in some cases like extension wallets do require private key and password to access crypto funds. phishing is very common through fake apps or downloads when it is a malware. So, when you do click something make it sure to verify it or else you will going to make regrets in the future when someone steal your crypto.

I even have already visible them looking to rip-off via this web website online earlier than making an investment the web sites want to be properly monitored. No one will ever deliver away unfastened bitcoin those web sites want to be eliminated and used with caution. I changed into additionally a sufferer of scams on such web sites withinside the case of rookies it's miles greater risky. They be a part of all types of web sites in greed with out checking something and if so they fall prey to faux web sites. It is higher to live far from those sorts of web sites.
