Never believe anything like that, there are a lot of scammers nowadays, when an email come and state that you can earn great income, for sure it is a scam, if the method really work, they don't need to advertise, you will get the news from people's review, and it is better to not put your real email when you register to something random

I don't know is it legit or not but i am doubt about it and must be bewared because many scam issues
using spamming emails, how do you think about it.
This scam attempt is similar to one that i have received few months ago, actually for several days with the name of blockchain.info in place of localbitcoins.com

Better not to use personal email to signup or subscribe in random sites you will come across.

Much better if you show us the details of the email you receive if it's really from localbitcoins.com

There are so many scammers right now using the name of big company or services to trick people simply to scam, they are using the same site's name but differs from its domain extension. This is obviously a scam attempt, beware!.
The sender of email was from this address [email protected] without m
i am sure it is trying scam and the real website localbitcoins.com and the sender of email use (@localbitcoins.co) without m

That's what I'm talking about earlier, scammers have a new style to trick people, they will do anything as long they can scam. But people are not too noob that will easily fall this kind of trap. And I'm sure the owner of this domain is a ponzi owner also which you use to registered that email of yours long time ago.



they can go a step further and actually catch a few suckers.  with a decent amount of planning and work and the right server IP you can effectively spoof an email address AND get the recipient get it in their inbox, the second part is where the work comes in. however, there is still no real good method for spoofing an email address and controlling the reply, if you email me claiming to be [email protected] and i reply then it goes to the real [email protected]. but, a spoofed email address of [email protected] can have any link in it that it wants and that is the moment you send the sucker to your faked site.  want to be real meticulous, check the header of the email BOTH for the domain URL and the IP address and ensure that the IP is for the real URL. more easily, simply look at any url from a link, rather than assuming the tag and the link are the same

you're joking right? you need our opinion? if the site announced the desire for investments it would lead you to the site to invest. how precisely do you think the dividends get paid out? are they supposed to parse the incoming tx's for their address every time they pay out?  no, they would direct you to the site, have you login and attach the amount that you are investing to a sql field attached to your user.  BUT, if you actually thought for one second that this was legit, then you would simply be better off investing in my sister.  she is completely screwed.  she is a princess in her country and heir to the fortune of $12,000,000 BTC, the only problem is that she was traveling abroad in a country that cannot have the funds transferred to her and she is broke because the local peasants ate her by accident.  when they vomited her back up her paper money she was carried was destroyed, if you could just send her 1 BTC, she could buy and plane ticket, fly back to our homeland, get the $12,000,000 BTC and fly straight to you.  did I mention that she saw your profile online and thought you would be the perfect mate to marry, serve for life and sign all her fortune over to?  i would send her the money, but I am not completely stupid, lol.

Whats the email address of this? It seems scammers now are upgrading tbeir styles now. This kinda look scam but it looks also legit. But i wont give them bitcoin if i were you. 500% profit is too good to be true. Thats kinda looks shady. Ponzi looking style i usually see on every hyip investments. You better not do it. Just stick on holding btc.

How can they pay such huge amount to investors really very scary because i din't think that this mail is from localcbitcoin, it's better write a mail to their support that this mail is circulating. Some body wants to miss lead the localbitcoin into investing side. Many people till now have good reputation on exchanging bitcoin through localbitcoin. By using it he send mail to people may be.

Much better mate if you are going to show us the email and domain of where that email came from and together a screenshot for it.

But this is an absolute scam attempt, good thing that you have warned us here. I haven't received any email from LBC.

And the concern here is "102% to 500% after 10 days" which is far from reality. How is that possible?

It's too good to be true, you can't just plant a rice into a pot and after 10 days it will grow into a rice field. A definite scam attempt.

Can you show the screenshot of the email together with the email address associated with it?

And is there a link below the email something like " Click here to get started " etc. While browsing at localbitcoins.com, I haven't see anything even at 1% about that investment thing so probably it's like a phishing site if there's a link provided included in the email.

And the concern here is "102% to 500% after 10 days" which is far from reality. How is that possible?
