Scammers are born from newbies who participate in their ICO, because new users don't know about ICO, ICO is currently not popular anymore, remember you can get scammed
Yes, but the newbies who don't know about ICO also cannot be blamed, because the scammers only take advantage of the gaps and opportunities that are open in front of their eyes to commit fraud, so in this case the scammer is not the newbie who likes to participate in ICO, because in the past when ICO was popular there were also many newbies who participated in it, but they were not victims of scammers, it all depends on the intention of the ICO developer.

Newbies are the main target of scammers. Because the scamming tactics they have are easily caught by the old members of the crypto market. Newbies can't catch the kind of greed that scammers show. As a result, they fall into the trap of scammers Telegrams are the most widely used scam method by scammers. So you have to be extra careful in using telegram.
Yes! Other reasons are newbies are lack of understanding, knowledge, skills and especially experiences. Therefore, they are easier to be attacked by scammers. Not only telegram, but also other social media platforms contain a great risk of being scammed. The advice is that don't click on any link or do anything a stranger want you to do. When they offer you something that seems too good to be true, just kick it off!

Sovryn - Brings DeFi to Bitcoin
Last week, I found an airdrop project in Telegram called Marco Protocol, the airdrop looked decent at the first stage, I earned 200 MAPC tokens and that was instant! But you only can withdraw from your MAP wallet when Airdrop program will end, that's good, I am okay with it. Their airdrop tweet got 8K retweet and 9K likes, so, you can understand how hype it had!
But yesterday, they announced they are going to sell Bitcoin at a 50% discount to celebrate the halving. Can you imagine? 1 Bitcoin price is 8600 USD, people can buy by 4300$! I believe This is absolutely scam but many newbies already have fallen for that! As they saw MAPC has huge support in twitter, and they listed on CMC too.

50% off announcement: https://t.me/MAP_POB_channel/87
The only 50% Bitcoin discount that I know of presently is from crypto.com and it's for a very limited time, that's a exchange, they might probably have the fund to do that but new project? That's too much and very hard to belief, I'm not a greedy type so I don't have interest

sorry in coinmarketcap is not MAPC but MAP, it seems you are wrong in seeing the name of this project because there are indeed similarities, which are in the coinmarketcap is MarcoPolo Protocol and airdrop which in my opinion scam has the name Marco Protocol
be careful in seeing the name of the project because scammers always do many ways to fool everyone

Scammers are a real issue but Newbies are necessary. If they fall into a scammers trap, it´s their fault and hopefully they will learn from it and don´t let greed or false hope get the better of them. That´s also a reason why global education about the basics of crypto and blockchain is crucial. As soon as people know what they are doing, the foreign element is gone, it gets accepted easier and scammers have a harder time doing their crappy business

I myself don't understand Fed up Newby and just invest in many scam projects and lose a lot as a result.But I believe 90% air drop.It works in many successful ways.Several days ago an air drop named Selena made a good payment.I personally received the payment in the binance.
Maybe what is meant by Solona is not the selena airdrop from the binance.

All things related to binance will be very good in terms of income because they know this is one of the opportunities for them to get more money.

What you should be mostly scared of is scammers. Newbies are only ignorant, ignorance isnt a crime, it just means you are new to a particular knowledge. Highest newbies can do is unnecessary noise. Scammers on the other hand are thieves, they truck and rip you of what's yours, it's an intentional act of fraud

Why are we even comparing these 2???

It is necessary to consider once and for all those who are buying coins for sale at such a discount. It may be a true preaching but we do not want to understand it! Spending such a huge amount of money to attract new users is simply not practical. It all sounds like some kind of trick/scammers .

wow really man ? thats nice knowing that they are using binance and we all know how legit binance was and also we all know that airdrops are now verry hard  . i dont know if you are only lucky or you are just good at airdrop hunting and doing a research .  you said you have invested and loose alot but still believe that you arent a newbie ? how come man , why you cant learn with that mistake of yours ? these is why scammers love to pursue thier career because people sometimes are acting a noob

Obviously it was scammer task. I believe 98% airdrops (except airdrops of good project) are fake and it is a waste of time. I did huge airdrops but noting got except few payment like Origin Protocol. We have to avoid such fake airdrops and participate only airdrops of good project.

Do you think they will really selling bitcoin with half price ? If so, it will not stay long because many peoples will buy it.
Be careful of scam, usually they will requiring the buyer to do something so they can buy from them.

Did you have any doubt that someone can sell bitcoin at half price?
If some one want sell 10k dollars for 5K (YOU GO FIRST) did you think it's a bargain offers or that you will get scammed?

@OP If this telegram channel/ fake airdrop is already open or available you can start a scam accusations thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0 so many people will be informed about it.

We are not too easily attracted to promotional offers that are to be good to be true. Like the marco protocol project that offers 50% discount
for buying bitcoin. This makes no sense, it looks like it's a scam. Be careful about offers like this. I am very worried about the newbie who is
always looking for ways to generate instant profits. Whereas in the world of cryptocurrency there isn't make instant profit. All need a process,
thank you for this topic to make us all aware to stay away from MAPC tokens.

Who in the right mind would buy bitcoin half the market value price, even if it as discounted price it would smell fishy. People get scam because of ignorance and greed, if you know what you are doing and you are cautious, no one will be victimized by such scheme. One of the reasons why I stopped doing airdrop, some scammers are desperate for money.

I have already gone to the telegram link that you shared https://t.me/MAP_POB_channel there are only 128 members, and I also found no information if they sell bitcoin for half price, there is no discussion there because it is only a telegram channel
It looks like they deleted everything there, so you won't be able to find any information from them. But the information shared by OP is true, there are so many scammer in this market and we need to be very careful.

Hearing what you said above makes absolutely no sense, I mean the reason why many users participate in MAPC projects is because the prizes they offer are quite tempting. I hope anyone is more careful and not tempted by airdrops that offer high prizes.
true, sometimes people follow the airdorp because they are tempted by the value of the prizes that are given without first researching the project, this is one of the mistakes beginners or airdrop seekers should they research first before following the airdrop
Although few newbies actually smart enough to do research before wasting time on this kind of bounty. But this one is switching at the midway of ongoing bounty and only then people know this is cleary a scam project.

I don't even check such distributions, where they promise to double bitcoin or sell it at a 50% discount. All this is a scam, and the result of participation in which will be the loss of your money. No real business can earn 100% profit for you in a short time. Stay away from such schemes.
