Topic: PEOPLE WILL NEVER STOP FALLING FOR SCAM - page 2. (Read 1045 times)

for now when there is a new gambling website I will also try it with a small capital to find out the scam or not.

Nothing surprising there tbh. If there isn't any real desire to learn, but only the desire for money or otherwise greed, people will continue to get scammed by themselves. It's like how they would probably go inside a burning building just to get a million dollars inside. And even if we say that they got experience with being scammed, as long as there's the factor or miniscule chance of a possibility of "earning money", they'd willingly enter any kind of trial/site/enticement just so they can try it. It's like gambling. They hope and pray that they actually hit the jackpot in one of their decisions, which makes separating from such choices harder than ever.

Most pyramid schemes that are running on the internet now are just to scam those who are lazy to do thorough research. They might ask you to start with just 0.001BTC and you will end of with 64BTC with 8 levels. The other will say you will double your deposit withing a month as if crypto trading is a money-printing machine. They are just numerous online and those who are joining crypto space newly always fall victim.

People may never stop from falling for scams since scammers has always a new way or strategy to make their victims fall from it. They always have the different idea how to make people believe through their platforms and projects, that's why day by day many people are falling from their traps.

Unfortunately, newbies don't have the desire to learn to be honest because what they want is they want to gain money in a quick and easy way. They don't want to spend some time researching that is why they are falling even for an obvious scams like Bitcoin doubler or daily interest kind of scams etc.

In my experience, I didn't fell for this kind of scams because I didn't just do some research at first but I listened to some of the experts and asked questions to some people before investing. I don't want to just throw away my money to some investment that I don't know how it work.

As long as there are newbies and lazy investors out there, scam will be everywhere.

Actually one of the reason why they fall the traps is also because of them. They are lack of knowledge about scam project and investments. Giving an easy way to scammers to figure out what they needed to do in order to scam them quickly. Some people wants an easy money and they want to put their money on risk just to double or triple their money in small amount of time. There are many fake investment and projects by using the price bitcoin as a power tools to fool people because of its price is very high and people always want it.
This type of scam is the same with my friend after several payment with exchange to bitcoin promising to double with extra bonus they vanished together with the money of my friend.

People may never stop from falling for scams since scammers has always a new way or strategy to make their victims fall from it. They always have the different idea how to make people believe through their platforms and projects, that's why day by day many people are falling from their traps.

Hello guys, back in 2017, during the heavy bull run, I visited my former office and meant some friends and told them the need to key into bitcoin. One who is now occupying my former position at the bank interjected and said "someone just left here to to lay complain how he paid a huge some of money to a bitcoin seller who then scammed him", bitcoin was never paid by the scammer. I asked them to send the person to me for a free tutorial on bitcoin and how to safely buy and store it, I never hear from them again till date. The victim had try to bitcoin because he heard he will double his investment in a week, I told them that is not how it work.

After getting and reading repeated complain of how persons are been scammed in my country while trying to buy bitcoin, I decided to make 4 banners on how to learn how to safely buy/sell bitcoin and other cryptocurrency, and to address the wrong notion about cryptocurrency. I got some calls and follow ups. But most are not interested in buying and holding but want to give me money and be giving them a weekly or monthly returns on investment, when I tell them that is not how it actually works, they will reply they have found a program online that pays some weekly % ROI, I try to stop them from putting their money there, they either stop picking my calls or tell them they are okay with their findings.

I am just weak and heart broken how people are lazy to attend class that will open their mind and eyes to existing realities and set them free from lifetime mistakes. I am dazed by their foolishness in the issue of finance. My banners and office is still open but won't force anyone to learn.  I hope they don't learn the hard way.

This is because we can create the most secure systems, but the main vulnerability will always be the user. And social engineering is the most used tool by hackers nowadays. The techniques are growing faster than security. That's why we have to be really careful with any business we do online.

It is not easy to find out what is scam or not , sometimes you realize only after a long time that the project you have invested in proves to be a scam, just look at many of the past projects on bitcointalk.

I thought they were just in too much of a hurry. sometimes they see the opportunity before their eyes, but they do not realize that it is a very detrimental thing. at this time so many people who make projects trap others involved in scams, if we are lazy to read and find information about the project that we will invest, then we will be easy to be exposed to scams. Most investors do not know what they are investing in, which is the reason why they are vulnerable to scams.

Obviously, because they don't want to listen to us and never take advice before investing. I'd think that this is a normal scenario and many people would still fall into the hands of scammers because of their wrong beliefs. They trust themselves but that trust isn't enough that is why we should have to open up our mind and tried to listen to the others.

It absolutely scammers won't stop their doings until there is no person could become their victim but it is quite happening again and again. And the awareness that we've given to the community seems to be not really effective and still could be ignored sometimes.
