Have you ever lost Bitcoin?
If that happened, why? Was it your own fault, or were you scammed?

I'm not gambling I only used paypal to when ever I buy product or services and if I am going to buy using Bitcoin I made sure it from trusted site,and I always triple check before I send Bitcoin,because when you send your bitcoin you cannot bring it back again through charge back..
I have already lost more than 5 bitcoins. some of them was taken by a hacker, but it was my fault cause I failed to keep them safe. I also lost a lot of altcoins when Cryptsy went down :\
I lost more than one Bitcoins over the time because of my own faults.This was due to get much money in gambling sessions.I also understand the feelings what comes after that loss.I was not having any problem just gambling which made me this happen.
Of course i have lost bitcoin , i play gambling with bitcoin and sometime i won sometime i lost but it was my choose it wasnt revalant with withcoin it can be other money type too .

yes, I've lost a coin being fooled by fake investment
It is sad, but I think you've got lessons from the loss of bitcoin you experienced. I hope you are more trusting of a real investment that is storing the bitcoin as much as possible and wait for the price of the bitcoin up or trade
Unfortunately, yes. Bad investments, bad timing for buying/selling, I've madew mistakes. Hope will not happen in the future again.

I have never lost Bitcoins as in having been scammed but I have forgotten the password for several Blockchain and other wallets before where I was holding a little amount of Bitcoins but that was all my fault anyways. I think I have lost approx. 0.1BTC. But I don't keep any coins on Bitcoin exchanges so I am fortunate enough to having avoided all the security breaches going around lately.
Yes.. I've lost my coins multiple times during the past four years. Some of the incidents are mentioned below:
1. Lost around BTC30.000 by investing in LTC-Global. I had BTC-AT shares, and they became worthless after the exchange closed down.
2. Lost around BTC0.05 when instawallet closed down. I never bothered to keep the backups.
3. Lost around BTC0.01 in the Mt.Gox scandal
4. Lost BTC0.100 after investing in LABCOIN
5. Lost BTC0.010 after losing private key to one of my wallets in blockchain.info.

I also experienced the same thing, when a beginner I invest 0.4 on the site ponzi, and it was not my mistake, because when it I did not know about ponzi. but it was a mistake of my friends, have advised me to invest in the sites that.
So far, I haven't lost any coin in my wallet, except for that one time when I am still a newbie and invested few satoshis in a ponzi cloud mining website that offers a too good to be true promise..
wow thats nice, you manage your bitcoins properly, You dont experience the feelin of getting scammed and lose yout bitcoins. yep, on freebit.co.in dice game,was so fckn stupid, around 0.7 btc
I also have lost some Bitcoins on some of these online gambling site. I do not use my Bitcoins for gambling any more because it is just a waist of Bitcoins. Holding on to your Bitcoins is a far better idea then gambling them away.
yes..lost on gambling 
I think the main source of loosing btc is gambling and ok maybe also unskilled trading. For me I lost my coins while gambling but still hope to recover them xD
And of course it will be nice if there will be more people that is selling Bitcoin later in the future with a lot of profit but it can just take a long time.
sent 2 BTC to a wrong address
