Does someone scammed you on this forum?
No never but so many people tried to scam me since I'm on this forum.
Scammers are multiplying as cryptos are getting popular and noobs are very easy prey.
what about Freetrade and his MemoryCoin debacle ? you figure that counts ?
I forgot about this one but I don't think that it was designed to be a scam.
There is a lot of pre-mined coins, this was similar.
It didn't really turned into a scam but a huge failure.
Anyway it was really shit and on the edge of a scam.
you don't know how it worked then lol

That's true I didn't know how it worked. I could understand but I didn't care. I was only interested on a pure CPU-coin because I bought a 4CPU rig and I wanted to get back my investment. MemoryCoin seemed to me the best choice and I've got overexcited.
It turned out the algo wasn't made for my CPUs so I gave up. Later my RIG got damaged and I stopped mining since and I am no more interested into mining.

Of course the best scams are the scams you don't understand. If it is complicated enough then, it can run forever.

On this thread I want to point out the obvious scams, the scams with IPO + noob account. They are so obvious but yet, every time people fall for it.

you don't know how it worked then lol
it had nothing to do with a premine in any way shape or form..
if i have to explain how it worked it's gonna take a while and none of us want to read that
and the dev knew this.. which is part of the reason why it was so crafty i think.. making sure it was complicated with minimal public info put out.
so guys like you jumped on it but had no idea what you were actually even jumping on..

his voting system was nothing like a premine..
and no offense but YOU were his biggest supporter and even YOU don't know how his coin worked ? that is sad man Sad

who the hell would trust a damn IPO in the is shit coin scene anyway ? are you guys brain damaged ? seriously wtf Huh?

Why the fuck do you take money out of people before your product even exist ?


How to stop a scam for dummies :

- Altcoins section
- IPO
- Noob account
- Noob account investors
- No proof of any work
- No proof of skills from devs
- OP only posting about how much money he received and stress you to send before the IPO end

Basically this is a good thought. But another way to view it is just to not trust people that you have no reason to trust. Remember it's real money we're handling, and it tends to make people greedy and prepared to scam others.

I remember this looking a bit fishy when I first saw it, and even considered sending them a small amount of doge. But I decided against it ... looked too risky.  The freebies were sort of smart, from a shady perspective. I guess it's something to look out as sort of a warning sign.

Not that it mattered. My doge was still lost as coinex ate it instead.

i recall you defending him and that coin to the bitter end even though i thought how it worked technically was the most brilliant scam to date.
He engineered a coin that paid him a lot of coins for doing nothing lol
a scam by design but a creative one at that i gotta admit ..he's good at.
He works people up with propaganda and overly technical little schemes.. he's harder to peg down than some of the other scammers..

I still have my logs from the wallet showing how this guy was getting a ton of coins and recall his replies to me early in the coin topic about etc
I told him you setup a hardcore scam here buddy lol
a system that gave him the coins miners mined on the network by DEFAULT unless they voted and he didn't even put in the topic how to vote or anything. LOL
Or mention how your coins were going to go to him by default....
and there was nothing in the wallet gui mentioning this or anything either.
you could simply see your mining and getting coins but they were being diverted to him.. for Noble causes of course lol
i mined and got 72 coins and they disappeared and i got none.. i was not amused. and that's when i quit mining and started looking at logs etc..

AND THAT was just the start.. the tip of the ice berg it got way worse from there
and sadly that drama proved nothing idiots still blow em to this day  Undecided

anyone want to say what happened to that coin or should i ? aka: the punch line lol

does that sound bad guys ?
well then i suggest you check up on the guy (and any coin poster) and see how many other coins he has made..
kind a hard to tell i suspect strongly he has used a few names lol

don't matter though they push on so their trail of crap grows and there will always be a new wave of gullible fools
that is their technique just keep piling it on..

anything IPO related should be a red flag.. i'd never even consider getting involved.

good job posting about the scammer.. people need to speak up when they have been ripped off or watched a scammer etc.

it's not everybody for themself.. it's called having some human decency.. some class and integrity and looking out for fellow crypto users.
would anyone be happy if i could have prevented people from getting ripped off and i just sat there and ignored it all and laughed at you ?
it would seem so because i expose these slime balls all the time and i get attacked for it lol
rather than being told thanks for looking out for us all (especially the new guys)

newer users need to made fully aware just how bad things are.
very little of what goes on is legit.. 75% scam 25% legit.. *maybe lol

the word "currency" has been butchered beyond comprehension sadly :/

Another SCAM: PoSCoin: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/annposposcoin-100-premined-pure-pos-ipo-launch-16042014-0000-cet-554784

i hate this...

Why not ask for donation to a worthy cause.
I think it's time to stop these thefts.

I do not invest, but it is too complicated for those who invest.
Every man for himself in these bitcoin times. Just don't invest in things, possibly make a thread about them if they're a scam.

inexperienced members need the guidance of experienced members in order to be less victimized by everyday scams, props for taking the time
I wasn't exactly guided when I was new, not about scams and investment schemes at least. I just had the attitude all along that nobody is gonna give me anything for free, and that turned out to be true. Any offer that sounds too good to be true - is.

Lmao, draw people in with free "shares" and encourage them to invest, then run off so both their free "shares" and investments become worthless. Brilliant, people really do fall for scams way too easily.
Only the people who don't have the "everyone is a scammer don't trust anyone on the internet" policy… It's kinda sad that you've got to suspect everyone in order to stay safe, but that's reality!
