You have to pay attention when you are using decentralized exchanges like etherdelta And idex because There Can be fake coins that have same name of original one. You have to look at contracts and it’s better to check also online before buying in that case

I just saw this somewhere on the internet. Are there any fake coins existing? How do you avoid buying fake coins?
Not actually a fake coin is being implement but the ICO itself. There are also many ICO that are scam you can see it in the whitepaper or in the website itself you can recognize it easily if that is really feasible to happen or not. But for me thats not the explanation because sometimes yiu need to take risks. I just saw this somewhere on the internet. Are there any fake coins existing? How do you avoid buying fake coins?
What do you mean by fake coins? Are you referring to shit coins? There are lots of them out there and most times, i see traders trade on them, because they are mostly pump and dump coins.As a traders, i may not totally avoid them, because i know they can give me my profit.
There are more than 1500 coins avilable in the market. You cannot do research about each and every coin. If you want to buy some coins just refer coinmarketcap website. You will get every detailed information about all coins. Just visit the website and choose your coins for investment.
in the digital world it will be very easy for someone to commit a crime or make a fake coin with the sophistication of today's technology. to avoid it, according to me, I analyzed and characterized fake coins whether the coin was registered from coinmarketcap and was in the top 100 list and made sure the coins and tokens were registered and then traded in large exchanges like Binance, Bitrex, Coinbase and Indodax. safer ways to make sure you buy coins that are in the top 100 marketcaps.
It is not impossible to have some fake coin.We can avoid those fake coin by our awareness. We should always check the background of a coin.
Look at the projects team and the market value of this coin. It is not so complicated to detect a scam coin if the trading volume during the last several months is 500 USD. I would also check the Telegram community for its activity.
before buy you should research about the coin project team and road map.if it is clear we can tell the coin is good and real one ,if their is no team and no project behind the coin we can say t is a fake and dead coin,so do your own research before buy 
So far this is the best advice for everyone who is asking questions like this! Always do your own research!
For me a fake coin is something that is already listed but no one is buying it. A lot of investors wasted money on that coin and even if it exist, the demand for it was closed to zero. That is what a fake coin does and it can easily deceive people as it is listed on a established exchange. It will take months before it will be delisted so its giving them enough time to scam people. Beware of those coin and do your own research. Don't be a victim.
There are many projects. A large number of coins are simply not used. Yes, they can be called fake. Projects that do not when will not rise in price. And there are many such projects and coins.
First and foremost advice! Never buy on the Yobit exchange, there are a lot of fake coins and tokens! 
There are so many fake coins in the community.
most of them are from airdrops.
some of them are from fake/scam ICO.
Fake coins are made to scam people.
either for the money or the identification so beware of them.

If you are referring to fake ICO projects, of course there are many fake projects. It was created and thanks to the help of the bounty hunters help the project get access to many investors. If you intend to invest in ICO projects I think you should evaluate the project that is developed on which platform, as well as its development path in the future. Also, you should consider whether the project management team is doing well.
If you are afraid to buy such a coin, then just go to a fairly good exchange and buy coins from the top 10.
I think fake coins are there and there are many in 2018. You can see many failed coin projects and many participants and investors are caught up in fraudulent projects. And to avoid new fake coins, I did some research and decided based on the experience I got.
analysis before buying coins, look for information from the coin website.
and look at the coin market whether the coin is traded.

What do you mean fake coin? Fake can be detected easily if they have no contract address. I believed what you are asking is if there are scam coin? Fake coins are everywhere and used to scam and they really exist.
