Not yet but it will never happen. Since I started earning bitcoin I never invest my own money just to buy a bitcoin. All the money that I earned were came from in this forum and I used that to double my money through buying an alternative coins. Many people were scammed because they are desperate to earn money that's why they are investing their money to those scammers without doing a research about it.
I think it's natural that many people get scammed because that's the risk of investing in online where all the identity is very secret and undercover. luckily you did not join in some investment sites so you're not hit by a scam. I get a lot of lessons from this. I invested in many sites like ptc, mining, and ponzi and nothing can live long term. it all ended up scam. I think only bitcoin investment is worthed and trusted..

Yes I also experience being scam. And that happens lately. Well for me there is no way to prevent being scam but there would be ways to teach you what will you do incase you experience scam. Be a smart netizen and investor. Read first all the info about the thing before choosing to join and invest to that particular campaign or site. Make sure that you made the right choice. Choose the persons who have positive trust  and have many positive feedbacks with his co-workers.

I just came over from the 'Investor Games' subforum (hope I got that right). A guy there said he came across a site asking to double his bitcoin, he paid in $20 and got $40 the following day or so. He then went for a higher plan of $300 hoping to cash out $600 but they asked him to pay in another $300 before cashing out. He got confused and was asking for advice.

I think I've been there before. Before I became a forum member. I once came across one of those scam sites promising to generate bitcoins. Thought it was real, but when they asked me to pay some transaction fee, I was stuck. I had no money to pay the fee. With the benefit of hindsight, I know I'd have sent them the 'transaction fee' had I had the coins to send them.

Now, what have been your experience with internet scams?
How do we help people not to get scammed?

Bitcoin transactions can easily be run, so in the choice of cooperation projects must first understand the details of the project.

No, but I dont want experience to become a victim of scam, to protect your money just move them to a private wallet and dont trust unknown people.

Truly I am and it is identical to my two months compensation. At the point when that was transpired I thought I never put resources into any sort of systems administration organization however when I caught wind of BTC and simply joining mark crusade nothing to lose cash I chose to find out about it and afterward here I am. I completely confide in BTC.

Yes!
Good morning everyone,

I was scammed on a site called BM options, a trading site, i think the trading sites are the biggest scammers on the net. I only lost $1000, but one port chap lost $10k! They are so convincing in their appearance i would say the same as others on here, read up on your chosen path, ask questions in forums such as this and take your time to get it right.

Right now i am looking for info from the forum members as to who has the best auto trading bot around at the moment?

Yeap here in bitcointalk when I came here on 2016, had a transaction on pokerstars and they freezed my account and return the money to the account owner, down 200$

There are gambling sites which are not really legitimate this days even in some exchangers, You were just very unlucky to play on that site and you trusted them immediately. I never been scammed before by any betting sites, My only experienced being scammed is not being payed the exact amount i should get from campaigns.

How sure you are that it will not happen? Well, as long as you will secure all the private information that you have definitely it will happen but as we all know scammers wi do the best as they can in order to be success on their mission. Scammers here in cyberworld are rampant which most of them makes you convince, that's why I observed and try to know all the possible details if it is safe or not.

I am very lucky to date because stuck on a scam site never happened.So if I am going to go into it should be more detail again how the site offers services later.Sometimes there is a big and small value from there we should be able to think carefully if really want to make an investment.

I personally have been scammed a few times before, and it is not good. The main thing to look out for is the previous trades of these individuals. I am still amazed at the amount of people that fall for newbie accounts that have clearly been made to scam people.

Trade with only trust able people, make sure you set yourself clear guidelines such as positive trust, recent trades and/or whatnot.

Of course I have been scammed for many times but I did not stop investing bitcoins instead I did research on how to find a reputable business with bitcoins. And finally I got it one is by joining this forum and by
joining bounty campaigns here.

Thanks heaven I haven't been scammed. Im not really easily persuaded if someone offers me something how much more if it comes to money/bitcoin. And I don't easily believe online. We must be very careful anytime because scammers are very rampant nowadays.

I have never been scammed. Nowadays there are a lot of people out there that you cant trust. I have never used my own money just to earn bitcoin. I am just focusing here in this forum and all my earnings are directly goes to my savings.

Apparently, yes i have been scammed several times. Those doublers and pyramid scheme. I already learn a lot don't trust that easily. There are many schemes that pay you at first then when you increase your investment they will just disappear.

I have been scammed for some times, but in that situation i have been more alert and careful, because if you ket that happen to you over and over again, you wont be successful in the btc and also in the other cryptocurrency that you wanted you own. Many are being scammed because they didnt look for much info about the ico that they are joining.

90% of people that do any business in internet always have this experience, The most important thing is to learn the lesson very fast and take precaution.

Real money not yet but in some ICO when I participated on their bounty program I experienced being scammed all my time and effort are wasted. A lot of scams around the world so people should be more careful this time to prevent loosing your hard earned money.

Aw that's suck, hoping that you'll get your coins after a lot of effort and time but will become a scam project. That's why I didn't try again to participate in those things 😂. Me too,  got scammed but not in the bounty programs
