Best is not to go by what people say or demo from calls regarding project mooning. Do you research, follow the project from product to community and team, know if they are real or fake, when they have working products and they are actuallizing that's when you will know the project got future not ny fud .

I think we need to add one more thing, which is the unprofessional idea.
For fraud projects, they often offer roadmaps and limited visibility. Their whitepaper only focuses on the price of tokens and big discounts and some limited information about the market. That is also a way to identify fraud.
Avoid projects that only talk about price, price, and price.
Avoid projects that only talking about pump, pump and pump, even if asked about the advantages of the project, the team responded as if he didn't understand the project he was working on. Shit Project


Agree, the developer team should not promise the price of the token will reach price X but rather focus on product development. The developer team should have no control over prices because the market will determine it and the market is a fair judge

I want to request to add in your list. This is escrow
Don't forget to do escrow if you want to trade with other guys. It doesn't matter how much to trade, with escrow you can avoid fraud.

Instead of peer to peer transactions, it's better to trade on exchangers and in my opinion this is a safe method if we want to invest. Escrow might be an alternative to peer to peer transactions but in my opinion it's still not safe because sometimes we don't know the escrow account holder

These are relevant informations that can really be followed to avoid been scammed. To be scammed on the internet really cuses a lot of mixed feelings on oneself and it takes some fols like forever to come out of the loss

Yeah, specially by the newbies or for those who want to get into cryptocurrency. They are the ones who are prone to this kind of activity which the scammers exploit in order to get an easy from from hard earn money of others. I would say not to trust those who are initiating PM's, projects with high return of investments, ROI within just a short period of time. All we need is proper research and be inquistive since it we are the ones that are responsible for our actions.

There are some factors like greed, hype, lavish promises that work for the incidents of investors and bounty hunters getting scammed. There are groups of scammers, who give sweet promises and talk big only to scam investors. I find your very useful and informative about avoiding scam projects and stay safe from getting scammed. Thank you for it. 
Almost all of the investors are greedy but not all of them are smart, if you are smart and greedy at the same time, you might still be successful investing here, because you know how to play the game in your favor.

The problem with some investors are they are greedy and stupid at the same time, they just look at one side which is the reward and look away on the risk.
They don't understand the risk and reward in crypto, they think if they invest here, it will be like a money machine that will give instant return.

steps that we have to do is save sites that you might use for transactions or trading, such as exchanges and wallets, bookmarks in the browser you use
Sometimes it's not even websites we have used before that steals our information, it's mostly new websites that we have never used before and some people tend to google them and sometimes end up in the wrong websites, we can never be too careful and most importantly, we shouldn't use the same password for every website we use because your password could be stolen from a website that isn't even financially related and used to hack your financial accounts.

Scammers always make fake or phishing websites and I think we are wary of this. To know this, we must always check the security of the websites we visit from the web certificate. In addition, to avoid scammers and phishing links, do not carelessly click on links sent from people we don't know
Best also to bookmarks those trusted website from your device it will lessen the possible attackers to hacked you out. Getting inside this industry always have the responsibility to take care of yourself, there's a lots of hackers and if you failed to do your research you will be more prone with risk that's involve with this market.

For you to be able to avoid those scamming projects, you must be able to have enough knowledge first here in the cryptocurrency. There are a lot of investments here and one of the very common investments was investing to a project and waiting the project to reach he soft and hard cap of them then you will earn, but be aware of those scamming projects that is in the first they are good at paying but later on they will just be missing like a bubbles that will pop, and also don't be to much greed because one of the many reason why people get scammed is because of their greediness to earn.
knowledge is important after that, relationships also become important because if you have many relationships you will find it easier to find projects to do research, then you can invest or join a bounty campaign if you have one. but knowledge is preferred because if you don't have knowledge you can only listen to people's references without being able to understand the concept of the project independently
Both of them I feel are important where we have knowledge and also relationships with several people, so we can ask for advice from some people we trust or you could say the people closest to us who know about cryptocurrency and then we make our own observations about what has been suggested by him, how the research we do, whether in accordance with what is said or not and then it can be a reason for us to make decisions.

Of all the mistakes that people make not creating an individual password for each website is the one that is the most unforgivable, there are even applications that help you to create new passwords that are impossible to guess, the only thing that you need to do is to download it and and install it and it will generate new passwords for you without the need of remembering them and if anyone is still using the same password for every single website then he deserves to get hacked for taking his security so lightly.

Bookmarked! This is a great read and reference on how to avoid being scammed. I guess we should always spread awareness so that scammers will be lessen if not completely eliminated. We should continue this advocacy to restore the goodness of Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency.

This is good and effective suggestion. Some of the victims are just relying on searching on Google which sometime clicking the wrong site and directed to phishing site. No wonder the exact look of the one they clicked is not noticeable that might lead to leaking of info on a particular malware site that can potentially steal youre information used in youre wallets.

I believe greed is the most prevalent reason for getting scammed both in the cryptocurrency space and the world at large. Most people who scam others presents a better deal to their victims. This serves as a bait to attract the naive and innocent, thinking that the offer will work in their advantage not knowing the opposite is their lot.

Whenever I see that someone is interested in investing in this market and it's really hyped about all the profits that he's going to get I always try to calm him down and bring him down to earth, being enthusiastic about this market is great but if you believe all of those lies about being able to become rich very quickly then you are going to become one of the many people in this market that have lost everything that they had because they invested in bad coins.
Yes that is why self-control is a must have here inside the crypto world because it can save you a thousand times from being scammed by strangers in the internet. I known a few friends who lost some money just because they're not thinking first about their actions and in result scammers take advantage if it and scammed them. We all need to remember that a having a good self-control will help us avoid scammers.

This information is very useful and beneficial especially to the new cryptocurrency enthusiast. Greed is something we all are guilty of. I had my fair share of losses due to greed when I recently joined the industry and got involved in hyip which brought great set back to my finances. I wish I was wiser then, because bitcoin was very easy to earn during those years.
