this is what I fear, in investing in altcoin that is not meticulously well, a risk that does not expect, but comes with a fraudulent act by an ICO company altcoin, my advice to all, be careful in investing, thoroughly as detailed as possible. I think, all do not want to lose in investing.

You can do a couple of things to make sure that you are protected from scams, things like making sure that you do not click any suspicious links and put your private keys there. Do not get involved with ponzi schemes which offer to make you a lot of money if you just invest some cryptos into them. Always keep your passwords in a safe place online

You need to carefully study the project, the team, their social networks, look at what discounts they offer on pre-sales  Wink

No one can solve this. the field of crypto is indeed hard, many feels do not want to get in because this kind of scam is a thing that often happens. to keep in mind is to expand knowledge and information about crypto. so to tackle the scam or identify the scam will at least be done although not exact.

In fact, no one is immune from fraud. Even if you carefully choose the projects, it is likely that you run into the scam. There are sites where people rate ICOs. It is also necessary to study the projects yourself. It is very sad that at the moment a lot of fraudulent projects. I hope in the future will create a platform where they will filter good projects from scam.

You have to act smart. Don't be stupid and fall for dumb obvious traps. If an offer sounds too good to be true try to avoid it as the chances of getting scam is actually high, specially if its from someone who has no reputation at all. Try researching about them before you take any further steps. Ask for reviews from people over here or some other sites. They might be able to judge if the site is legit or not.

perhaps,  'cause indeed for me it depends on us also if we want to avoid scam projects. Which is by making technical analysis first about the project to ensure if it's legit before participating , 'cause honestly most project nowadays has a good intentions, but unfortunately some of that very promising projects that has a good intention as well is definitely not a trust worthy, 'cause most scammer people nowadays is covering on ICO project because of being popular investment all over the world. Which is to hard to determine because of copy paste testimonials such classified project especially without doing any research about it.

The best way to detect scams projects is to be extremely careful and to carry out a due diligent search before involving in any project. Take time to read the project whitepaper to have a deep understanding of the project concept before diving it.

Practically you do not protect yourself from scammers. People are so trusting that they are ready to give the latter for the sake of free earnings or multiplying investments. Therefore, it is so easy for fraudsters to deceive us.

There are basic ways to detect or identify which ones are scam and which ones are legit. Learn as many as possible about what the project is trying to achieve and check if the team behind has the ability to achieve it.

Yes, it is true that the crypto world is vast and that there are a lot of scammers out there. There are certain red flags that we need to look out for in order to protect ourselves. The first would be to see if it is old or new, old ones are always the better options. And then we need to see the demand it has in the market.

Maybe everybody who invests in the crypto money world we are in is asking this question. I think the consistency between the institution to be invested and what is promised is the most important factor.

It will be hard to filter a scam and a legit project because scammers are now being smart. They can now offer good potential projects with well written whitepaper which can attract investors to invest on them. To get rid of being scammed the only thing you can do is collect all information about them starting from the team if they are really the people on that said project because scammers will always hide their true identity and will use others to avoid being sued or caught. It will be a long process but it is for the safety of your investment so it will surely be worth it.
