Since you are trying to change the minds of people who have already identified Bitcoin as a scam so it will definitely be hard. But, if the number of population is educated then I think they will eventually understand the importance of Bitcoin rather than looking at the bad side of it.

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are. 
We improve the tech, and the user expirience, and let the time do his thing
Tell people about the goodness of bitcoin, its technology and its function for sure they love to understand more about bitcoin but we cannot force them to use this technology, maybe they are not ready for the risk of this market so we have no choice but to respect it.
Sometimes, after saying some about the benefits and goodness, they didn't even care. We might also have to do some practice, such as shopping online using bitcoin or altcoin. Then he will see the ease and speed of the transaction. After that, there must be some interest in his head.do you mean using force? hell, no! their next generation won't act foolish like the.
Well no. We can never make someone accept bitcoins by force. We need to figure out the right way to do it. And there sure is a way!
do you mean using force? hell, no! their next generation won't act foolish like the.
Basically, show them proof to make believe that bitcoin being a digital currency is not a scam. Coins.ph is the wallet I've been using to store my coins. It can have Php, BTC, ETH, BCH, and XRP wallets at the moment and looking forward to more coins to consider. The simplest way I did to make my friends accept bitcoins as a digital currency, I bought loads for my mobile phone using the BTC coin I had in my wallet and told them that you can earn those coins through mining, faucets, and bounties to convince them more to jump in the crypto world.
We need a lot of knowledge and research before investing into bitcoins else we are at a loss. Yes, like that expression, 'guns don't kill people, people are killing people', we can use it for lots of things in the world and it also can be applied on Bitcoin too. We can not do much about that issue, maybe we could affect on it on small local level but people that have been tricked once is hard to change their opinion. Those who didn't have negative experience with Bitcoin have to research good everything that they want to know and that will lower chances of scams or similar unpleasant things.
Even though this expression (that guns don't kill people) is true in a metaphysical or philosophical sense, in some countries guns are still prohibited from possession by people who have mental disorders or are otherwise disturbed, and some other countries guns have been prohibited from possession by anyone who doesn't belong to police, armed forces, and their likes. My point is that while Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are not to be blamed for things OP mentioned (scams) and even for things I mentioned (like slavery, drugs, etc), this may not stop the powers that be from banning crypto if they see that this ban can be effectively and efficiently enforced.
Moreover, I'm strongly inclined to think that the only real reason that prevents the majority of governments from direct attack on crypto is the fact they understand that they are unlikely to succeed, not that they don't want to.
we explain it well, we explain it neatly and if you still can't accept it, just leave it
A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.
People who think 'bitcoin is a scam' I think they are fools, they should be able to distinguish between the two modes in it, namely bitcoin and scamer. Bitcoin is like money it's just an object that can be used by someone for various types of transactions, both as a payment medium, and as an investment asset. And scammer, they are people who use bitcoin as a medium to cheat.
To assure them that 'bitcoin isn't a scam' I think there is no other way, besides being patient, we must be able to direct them to the right path, by giving detailed steps, starting from how to make a wallet, showing a good exchange account, when we must buy or sell. Maybe such a method can grow their interest in bitcoin.
It is hard for people to embrace the truth about bitcoin as a currency because its digitalized and it takes those that has knowledge about the system to comprehend,some people may think its a scam,it not true. Its a system built in a blockchain technology with high security,it just need someone in the system to educate others(novice/newbie) about it.
In today’s era, digital money is desired by every single individual, so that people may transfer them between themselves over the internet, similar to emails. Here is an article of daily use of digital money in daily life.

Yes definitely you have a point some people are afraid to invest on bitcoin because of fraudulent activities or we called scams, this may cause people and so discourage to try and start engaging in cryptocurrency world. Yes we can't blame people if they don't want to try and experience what is the good side of being a crypto enthusiast. However if we can share those good experience and outcomes rather than discouraging them I think it may help us to go enter in the crypto world.
We shouldn't force people to accept Btc if they do not want to. That will even let them think otherwise. The best we can do is to use it the way that will attract them and will let them know that what they have read or heard on the media s not what is actually happening.

I think right now we must worry about the larger bodies and not individual people because I think the little people already are aware of the benefits of crypto but for the governments its a frightening thought so we need to come out with something that'll be appealing to them.
I do not seem this information right as many people are still in favor of adopting bitcoin and many countries governments are talking steps for the adoption of bitcoin. There can be a slow response but that is for limited period of time. This information is rumors in fact.
s an ordinary people we don't need to do anything, but if we are rich and has a lot of connections we can do something like regulating bitcoin as payments on our businesses so that bitcoin will be well known or create some good news that will have a great impact on bitcoin
The only way fo r people to fully accept as a currency is when there have been considerable transactions across the globe using Bitcoin as payment. This is where big names like Apple, BMW, Samsung, etc. comes in. When people sees that Bitcoin is being "utilized" by the big guns of the business industry, the trust will build up, image will grow for the best, and legitimacy is further confirmed.
