No one can do anything about this other than keeping yourself out of the crimes and governments regulate crypto properly and let the population use them easily. Crypto being used in crimes is actually a sad thing and a black mark to the new investors as they feel it is only used by criminals, which is not true.

One revealed scam produces 5 new scams, of course that nobody can do anything about that. What we can do is to protect ourselves as we know, education and learning can help in that, other than that we can sound an alarm in scam accusation section and to hope that others will see it.
One huge problem about scams and accusing services and projects to be a scam is that sometimes some good projects get targeted by the scammers. I am not sure is there one coin or one service that hasn't been accused of scam at some point, we still have people who speak about bitcoin as a scam, what to say more?! So be careful about projects that are tagged, but in the end do your research, it's not a scam just because some people yelling it is.

Thats why more regulations come. FATF - Financial Action Task Force is the most dreaded association for the exchanges last days, especially for the smallest one. Don´t worry, crypto market is pretty new and it needs a time to fix every issues.

This is not a matter of worry, but a problem that has to wait a long time while the crypto market is being fixed, because we don't know how long they will take the time to fix it.

What matter is the scam exchange and project nowadays, we can avoid that if we have knowledge that if we use it correctly then it can be a power. Scammers are so smart that they can attract many investors, if we really want to increase our money through investing then we should know what kind of investing that we are doing. It is no good to place our money in something that we do not have enough informatiob about it.

I think everyday there are consistently crypto related scams that occurs in crypto world. Indeed, even in exchanging and other crypto related business, there are consistently misrepresentation action and scam that occurs, even the scammers are continually discovering approach to hack someones account just to make cash out of it.

That's right, the scammers are still rampant in the world of crypto, they are still looking for ways to get money easily in crypto, so that makes us all become uneasy because of the scammers. so be careful to work inside crypto.

The only way we need is to learn more from what they can do and also if you are prepared and aware from that they could find hard from scamming people and it can cause that they reduced or they find something else but not in crypto if they didn't get any victim.

Let's not invest in ICOs / IEOs who aren't sure if it's legit. Especially projects that are not transparent because this is a scam for sure. Just also report this immediately in the scam accusation thread here at bitcointalk so that newbies and other investors can gain immediate awareness.

In order not to be a victim of the crypto crimes happening in the crypto ecosystem, never keep or save your crypto coins or tokens on any exchange platforms, withdraw everything into your personal crypto wallet. Also, people should avoid joining or visiting sites that seems to promote some kinda free money in the form of crypto airdrops. The crypto space currently is made up people are just concern about cheating others and robbing off their little money.To add to this, keep your wallets protected and do not share your private keys with anybody..

Obvious things. However, your advice is not to keep money on exchanges, we sell 100% only for holders. What do traders do? One way or another, most of us have to keep money on exchanges in one or another amount, so it’s best to decide on the amounts for which it’s not scary, or which are simply necessary for trading, and withdraw the rest to secure wallets.

So crypto users should update themselves about how to avoid hacks and scams. It is not harder though we can make our crypto assets safe by keeping our device safe from any malware, trojans and never get interested on high return investment schemes.

Its a never ending fight against those malicious hackers, they are going to continue doing it because there is no IDs involve in doing it unless users of crypto are all going to be techie enough. The internet is even in the early stage in some part of the world which is why its not going to be surprising that newbies are the primary victims by these phishings.

if we talk about hacked accounts, stuck on a scam project, then it's not just for beginners because most of the victims of investment and even the hacked exchanges have all been good at keeping their assets and themselves safe. so nothing is safe in this circle and all of that is a risk we should be aware of

I think as long as crypto is more and more, and also has a high value, of course testing cannot be prevented, but I think it can be avoided. for example facing project fraud maybe we should learn to more "due diligence" projects more actively and I am sure this will be useful.

I don't think we have the ability to prevent or reduce fraud in the crypto industry. because decentralized cryptocurrency no one controls, anonymous and until now there has been no official authority that can regulate and sanction the fraudsters. so I think we can only prevent and try to keep our wallets safe. and be more careful in choosing exchanges.

As long as there are no regulations in all countries regarding cryptocurrency, it is difficult to stem crime in the cryptocurrency market. The perpetrators are difficult to be snared because it is difficult to report and in my opinion there should be an authority that oversees the sale of tokens or about projects being carried out by the developer team so that investors feel they are not deceived

Indeed this problem is often happening in the crypto world let alone those who have a big asset will certainly be the target of hackers, my advice to keep our assets safe then keep in the wallets that we already believe in high security, and there are many Use the wallet and do not like to address our wallets because it is very harmful to the asset, and if we do many assets never save in the platform of any exchange because it is very harmful.

the system is decentralized but the fact that we are still using decentralized exchange, the power of the government to regulate will be effected.
Those scammer are smart, they are also penetrating in country where lack of regulations for crypto, hopefully these countries will also adopt, followed a standard regulations employed by big countries.

it can if you choose trully decentralized one. You can keep your money in decentralized wallet
Make sure your private key is safe. It is very important. Not your PK not your money

I dont wonder if there will be CEX going scam. Most of them will be, just matter of time
So, if you have money in CEX, always check. If there is unusual activity, get out from that shit!!

https://news.yahoo.com/cryptocurrency-thefts-fraud-hit-1-211446327.html

In Q1 alone of 2019 there was $356m in theft of digital currencies from exchanges and scams while losses from fraud hit 851m. This number includes the QuadrigaX scam which accounts to about $134m in total losses.

What can we do to help stop these from happening and getting worse?

That was too hard to remove all kind of scam and theft because they want easy money. All we can do is to being aware from our money especially from investment that we going to take. But we can stop it because some investment do paid but for a longer of time they didn't for them to get an easy profit.
