If you want to escape from scammers, just search more about the site you are looking for or search more about the person you are going to deal.

Where should I search about the site or the person? Forums? As we discussed, high ranking forum accounts can be bought. News? We know that HQ, positive articles could be delivered from a writing service. So where?

Look the trust points and you can not go wrong about the webmaster...

It does not solve the problem when the scammer buys a high ranked account with alot of green trust. You see only an online avatar, but you can't see who or who ARE the people who actually control it.
This is why I have said that your best defense is just your common sense; if the offer seems too good then its most likely is, since almost any signal that you could look for can be faked by the scammers.
To be a realistic person and never get into the bait are offered by the FUD and especially the scammer are always spreading the word of can get a profit totally with the easiest way in this time and are no need any effort for doing it.

When the site is asking for more information about your Financial details than it is necessary without first providing any services or products
If they are asking for such personal information it could be because they want to be sure that they are not doing business with fraudsters who may use stolen money to them in exchange of good or services. Basically, it is a step to protect both parties. I guess this will not let you to figure out the future scams.

This is very unusual for a website that ask you a lot of your personal information. That is making them more suspicious and if a site that you are entering and you try to put some investments with it, then suspect that it will turn to scam you, maybe not your bitcoin or money at first.
But it will, with your information.

Avoid red trusted webmasters...they are and can only be scammers.

Well, your trust is red at this moment... I think we shouldn't trust you so hehe. Cheesy

If you want to escape from scammers, just search more about the site you are looking for or search more about the person you are going to deal. Always use a trusted escrow, so you can't be scammed.
Always use the reputable escrow and using the reputable site, and I think all of the sites are already filling all of you need today. and too many the newbies are trying for using a new site with unknown credibility and reputation.

well, you know that the site you want to rip you always give false evidence unreasonable or give promos beyond common sense. it usually gets people interested to try it. with promises that he will give hundreds of $ if you do what the site said. Well, it is easy to see the site as it was, because I've been several times to join the site as it was

This is probably the biggest issue: the latest websites are even hard to prove that they are fake. Cloud mining websites were the most profitable ones a few years ago making MILLIONS in profits, but now it looks like almost everyone finally understood it's just a fake business. Fake for us, extremely profitable for them. Make sure you look up the websites on Google before you register and try them out. Search for reviews of that website and be careful, there might be even fake reviews. Fake websites got fake reviews and fake user counts and stuff like that. For example, there was a website a while ago that used to fake their user counting so whenever you refreshed you got a random number of users. There are plenty of things you can find suspicious on websites.
Yep and the bad thing is that doing that is extremely easy and cheap, in order to create a script that in every refresh increases the number of users is extremely easy, just a few lines of code that anyone can do.

As soon as a site makes you a promise beware. Anyone telling you there is 0 risk is lying because everything involves a risk. Hell waking up in the morning involves a risk. Driving your car involves the risk of death. Nothing is without risk. The best way is to fins out historically what sort of profits you would expect if thongs kept going the same way. This is not a sure thing either. You might make even more or even less. But certainly investing in a company with stable profits will almost certainly bring profits. Kind of like you would sy you won't die driving to the shops as if it were a sure thing but you still could in theory die in a crash though the odds are so low. Those are the sort of invest!ends you eant! Not promises and nonesense thrown at you. You need to see facts and figures and proper backing. Proper reasons to invest not some fantasy story of being "expert trade men" making 30% in mere days. That is clearly crap and only you are to blame If you for such things.

I do not agree:
If the unique risk is that the sky can fall on our head (or such kind of risk) then it is for me 0 risk.

My U2 system is 0 risk and I can not accept that people say it is not so...
When I say it is impossible to lose,then it is so...
Why does people take pleasure to say that the 0 risk does not exist?

Ok...every one can die suddently...but this has nothing to see with my system.
Ok...a server can crash...but this has nothing to see with my system...
If a crash does happen with this forum server ...it is the same ...you will not say every where that this forum is risky for this.

Please do not only talk on one side...risk free systems do exist...at least one...my U2 system...(lol)

Knowing nothing about my system is not an excuse for saying wrong things...

The arguments are almost everytime (99%) based in some bizarre profit/return.

Appearance is not everything but it's important, and linked with that you have to look at the source code. Many scam pages have pre-defined script and the logic or the code it's not linked with what the site offers.

Google it then search in The Badlist in badbitcoins.org.

By doing this it's satisfatory to detect some scam page.

You could only know that the site scam you if the members are no increasing and also the withdraws.
So to prevent scam we need to be careful for our money invest, that is my own observation.

It is not always important that the transactions shown on a website should be fake in order to represent the intentions of that website to be bad, but sometimes they even do some real transactions in order to make the users believe in them and later on they turn scam after getting a lot of investors.

That's really happening just to make their website to become real just to make believe that they are really paying.

But the most effective way to know that a site tries to scam you, talk to other members of that and do some discussions like here in forum.

Or any other forum that is related to that site.

If that's your only method, then how are you going to deal with websites that doesn't show the number of members and withdrawals? In my experience, you simply have to google the website that you're about to use. Even before you find out about a website, somebody has already posted a feedback about it. But sometimes most of the time you can just sense it yourself, most unpopular websites out there are scam anyway.

Actually google wouldn't help you cause for researching for any hyip site sometimes because they will redirect you to those  hyip generator sites or some hyip analyzer and surely they will rate those site paying for the times they are running, and for scamming issue to be avoided will we should stop investing at them eventhough theirs people would brought up us on those site, hyips investment well never be a good idea so trashout the thinking for long profits of earning with this one.

We talk here about it, but truth is that scam happen in seconds before we have time to think. Here I don't talk about classic scam trys, when we recognize possible scam and we stay away from it. I'm talking when everything looks ok, good site with positive reviews, advertising on many places.
Who knew that bitfinex gona crash? Who knew thag some faucet will crash and not pay? Small or big scam doesn't matter, we are not aware of it until it hits us.
We could actually say  its a scam  if   it  hits  us  for  sure  but   as a  human we  could eventually avoid  it    if we saw some  factors that are  quite suspicious  on  our awareness. If we do value  our money  then  we should  obliged our selves  to  put  up or search  some   informations  regarding to a particular site  if its  legit  or not  a  ponzi  ,hyip site. If we  do configure what it is  then  we saw that it would became scam  in the long run then we should stay away at the first place and  dont  let it to hit  us afterall.

In my opinion, if a web site promises to give you great benefits you be careful,
Because in the world,There is no free lunch,This is how I distinction liar



That's the main point of this, too many scam sites are offering for earning some benefits without trying for using some of your effort for finding the, and i can defining totally a lot of the sites are starting with this way are including on the scam site. but not at all. mostly.
