much token name same, but contract address for each token must be different. so as not to be hit scam, make sure that token contract address will be traded is appropriate, don't just refer token name. we must be careful

Yeah, and every bad guy must be using and finding some real lazy strategy stuff to do or we say they do put some efforts just to make money. But once it gets busted they're now ready to find for a new one and so on. We must be very cautious in everything especially if it involves a lot of money.
We can't avoid these type of people in our society so it is better for us to just be very cautious to everything.

Since it is so easy to make tokens nowadays it is easy to make "fake" tokens.
Also, a lot of the tickers aren't regulated, so you can give it the same ticker.
For example, you can name one token Trust and give it the ticker: TRT
And then another one with a stupid name like Treant and give it the same ticker: TRT

On decentralized exchanges, most people won't bother to look at the smart contract address.
So they will just assume TRT (trust) and TRT (treant) are the same.

Nowadays, people will take a semi successful token then make a "copy" of it.
Sell it for a really low price and get people to buy it up.
It's basically fake products scam from the real world applied to the crypto world.

Hi everyone,
I just want to tell everyone about the new scheme of the scammer to scam. especially those people who really doesn't understand much about centralized and decentralized trading platform.

I have read several people posting about arbitrage coins like for example MTV arbitrage
Please check this link as an example:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/mtv-arbitrage-chance-5050943

upon checking what they the link that they are using, you can see that they are pointing you to Forkdelta.
when you check the trading on https://forkdelta.app/#!/trade/0xcd53c76b8a350b7f9815d6ddc4617bf37c7288ff-ETH you will see a token named MTV (Multiversum). The scammer wanted you to think that this token is the same token found on IDEX.
Because there is really a Multiversum on IDEX.

But if you analyze very carefully the MTV on forkdelta doesn't match in IDEX because of 2 factors.

1.) they have a different smart contract. on forkdelta (0xcd53c76b8a350b7f9815d6ddc4617bf37c7288ff) , on IDEX (0x07a7ed332c595b53a317afcee50733af571475e7)
2.) The have Different token extension. Forkdelta (MTV) , IDEX (eMTV)

I hope that this short analysis will help others to avoid this kind of scam.
make your analysis first before trying to buy or invest on a token.

Thanks for the information, I just thought to buy these tokens on forkdelta, there was a very good price for them, now I understand why

I have been seeing many newbie accounts posting arbitrages on this forum, most especially on the section of the forum and it appears to me that one person keeps doing this almost every time. We really need to be very careful and we should not because of the money we are looking for, now decide to make some mistakes of loosing the little that we have due to our own negligence. Care needs to be taken.

This time the scammer does indeed have a variety of powerful ways for those who are not able to do this properly and analysis already takes a lot of sacrifices. enrich yourself with the knowledge of the crypto is the best thing to do to avoid such scammers.

IDENA.IO - Proof-Of-Person Blockchain

we must be careful in investing, not only by encouraging big profits, we can easily get into the trap of these scammers
if you think about it, when someone has a technique to be able to get money easily, for example arbitrage, then why does that person have to invite other people? even though he can use all of his money to make arbitrage himself without any competition and certainly will get a bigger profit
and another, that EtherDelta is the Exchanger I hate most in history

Now scammers do everything so invisible that this is just awful. I recently invested in a project for pre-ico and they collected soft cap and everything is fine. The discussion in chat rooms was always very active and even announced listing at HitBTC. One day before listing, the project was closed and run away with money

I think I already had seen the same thing in etherdelta once, same name coin with cheaper price but if yu look carefully the contract is different.

Yes, this is an old type of fraud, a long time ago, I got caught on it, because I thought it was a chance to make quick money and I did not have time to understand until I realized that these are different coins.

Well my friend. Thank you very much for the heads up you gave us about this new scam project on the ethereum network. I am amazed by the sheer number of scammers (and scammed people as well) on the cryptocurrencies space the last two years I have seen so many fake ico and fake platform, it feels really like the old wild west. But connect, ethconnect. They all were plain scams, yet people invested millions of euros and dollars into them. And they still try to scam away money from people. Luckily there are people like you that try to help newbies and uninformed or bad informed people's. Thank you

scammers are innovators you cant deny that, they can always come up with new scamming method to steal people tokens, i think its better to use coinmarketcap links because you wont get the wrong coin link.

And because of this many new investors are afraid to bring money to this market. We definitely need some regulation programs for this
