I was invited by a friend of a friend to invest in Bitcoin last year. He told me that if I invest 5000 in our currency it will be doubled in a month's time. He also promised me that I will get referral fees and override from every person I introduced to Bitcoin and that prices of Bitcoin are expected to increase. To make the story short I did not join because I believe its a pyramiding scam. Truth to be told I did my research on Bitcoin after that and it turn's out that Bitcoin's price was really on rise unfortunately I did not invest at that time. Currently I'm learning more thru this forum and I thank my friend for inviting me here. Just last December I heard from one of my friends that the company they joined was in fact a pyramiding scam and the money they invested in just vanished out of thin air together with the people who invited them. We should be wary of people offering investments and opportunities to us. Do your research. Opportunity comes with risks as well as the rewards. If its too good to be true, it might be a scam. Bitcoin is not a SCAM but there are people who uses Bitcoin to SCAM other people. Good luck to us and more power to Bitcoin!
The introduction of your friend about bitcoin is wrong. Since you do not need a refferal to earn here you just have to invest and wait for the price to rise. Maybe your friend say you are a pyramiding scheme and that's a real scam because there are many here now. So you did it right to research in your own way so you know it and you decide on yourself.

One of the most common forms of bitcoin scam is the creation of fake Bitcoins. To store, pay and convert Bitcoin to other currencies, the user needs to create a Bitcoin wallet. Taking advantage of the huge demand of users who prefer to create their Bitcoin wallet on their mobile device, the scammers have created counterfeit Bitcoins. These are wallets with the same name as the prestigious Bitcoin wallet, sometimes their logo is the same as the real wallet.
You should not invest in Bitcoin if you do not really understand it. The most common scam tactics people need to know to avoid falling into the trappings of the bad guys:
1. Create counterfeit Bitcoin wallet
2. Provision of Bitcoin mining service
3. Bitcoin Investment Programs
4. Bitcoin Multi-level Marketing
5. Counterfeit electronic money
6. Phishing scams
7. Bitcoin donation scams

You have to know where you save bitcoin to invest and where is the safest place for you to invest. Every investment has a negative side, but one has to invest better to investigate and find real investments that exist and never listen to the quick, careful and positive promise that he Got to understand how things work, this is simple advice.
They are just disappointed with the Bitcoin price that goes down for now and so they will mention Bitcoin scam but different if Bitcoin comes back for a good price.
Price fluctuation is a part of the game. If you don't want to invest in an asset which can go down, then you should go for some asset such as the treasury bonds or bank fixed deposits.
