I believe that the scammers will still be going Scott free as far as there is no rules and regulations biding ICO. And with this I believe no one will ready to invest in ICO again, with time ICO will become past.

It seems to me that fraudsters will always exist as long as there is internet.  Yes, now create a strong protection system.  But they get around with time and still steal.  This is all a matter of time.  From this nowhere is it.
yep! indeed they will always be there.
but i think at the moment almost all crypto users are smarter and more careful in protecting their valuable assets. and it seems like the scammers will have no chance to benefit from user errors.

I think this is the reason why there are few people investing crypto because of the scammers. They are running freely, and they get not caught. I think because there is no enough program to captivate them. As an investors we should be careful.

Scammers are everywhere in cryptocurrency they are freely doing such as scam so be aware of projects thaf you are promoting and investing make sure you join a good project like heluss.io this project is good and having a product for everyone .
Crypto continues to exist and it's having a good progress, with a good progress, people are expected to be matured and will not fall for any investment scams, or whatever platform that is scam. One good example of changes that is positive is people now investing in IEO from ICO, because ICO is full of scams.

Not until we start seeing crypto scammers get arrested for real many new investors won't join,I have friends that won't join crypto because of scammers running away with ICO funds forever ,no way to arrest them and get the funds out of them,the few news I read about getting some scammers is not enough ,the more there is an effective way the less scammers will harm crypto

I disagree here. We're seeing scammers face justice.

Check out this guy who stole millions in crypto and now has to pay 3x more: https://crypto.bi/z/threads/justice-served-guy-hijacks-phone-steals-u-23-million-in-crypto-has-to-pay-u-76-million-in-damages.941/

Some infamous cases were indeed under-penalized, but I think we don't need major state regulation to get scammers to justice. Using existing laws is enough to protect crypto investors from scammers.

a lot of fraud so we have to be careful when choosing before running.
good projects may not function properly if there are obstacles.
we must be very careful if we will look for projects, so that we can benefit from it.
a good team will influence the project so we have to research and find out more about it so we can walk easily and become successful.

Lolzzz, like what do you expect people to do about it? There's nothing you can do about it except if you know who it is and where they are living, then you can decide to go after them since you have their identity and you can easily trace. But seems you don't know who it is and you don't know where that money went to, then there is no way you can really tell who or where to find. The is the problem people are having with cryptocurrency and it is one the reasons why we should be careful of who we are dealing with.

Once you have sent your coin to them and it happens to be a scammer, then just forget about it, cause your money is gone for good. Crypto is like PayPal where your payment can be reversed. Some people make use of escrow, but I don't trust those escrow services, they can as well turn out to be scammer, no one should be trusted.

This is one proof that we need regularization and legalization right now because without it scammer are free to do something illegal without any disciplinary action by law. If regularization and legalization will implemented scammer will going to afraid because government will have rights to make a law to punish scammers.
The question is if people will still not fight it being regulated, fine it can be legalized, but I am sure people will still have issue with its regulation, because majority of them feel that once it is being regulated by the government, they will still be able to monitor their transactions.

For me, I don’t have any issue with government monitoring my transactions because I have nothing to hide, the speed cryptocurrency payments has brought solution to slow and third party involvement is more than enough for me to continue with the system for the rest of my life. So if regulating it is what it will take for these crypto scammers to be wiped off, then I am in full support of it.

I think it is the wrong mentality that people foster when they say that "since I have nothing to hide, I can share my data" that is such a bullshit! It should be YOUR CHOICE if you want to show something or not.
Wanting your privacy is not the same as being secretive. I get really mad when I see people saying bullshit. Excuse me if my words sting.

There is no regulation and that's why some scammers get away with it. More scammers also invade the crypto world cause they know they will always get away with it. Advice your friend to invest in already established projects and not upcoming ICOs, to avoid same thing happening again.

Scammers have been arrested on some occasions, such as the team of cyclean, but so many of them are at large and might not be caught.
Even if some of them are caught, it is not enough to bring full trust into the system, except the whole system is purged and regulated.
even if the justice system catches scammers, it is usually very difficult to return funds to users, and in my opinion, it is not possible at all.

Why OP have to force someone if they don't want to join? Just accept the fact that there are people who will still keep doing bad things just to take advantage of other people. If your friend/s wants to join he may have to find a way to get in and not to give you some stupid excuses. Don't you think people are not making way to let those scammers go behind bars?

Even on this forum you can find scammers as well as trustworthy users. Kindly take time analyze every person as well every ICO before investing or participating bounties.
Here are some information you need to do must check for every ICO.

Read the Whitepaper
Analyze the team images using search on google(Whether it is taken from shutterstock, picasa or some random images)
Core idea of the project
Track contract address and confirm whether the transactions are real or not
Check for plagiarism on whitepaper or techpaper. Then it is suspious and it may done by the random whitepaper maker
Get connected to their most active community channel like Telegram or Discord. (See their updates and monitor for somedays)


I believe these things are enough to confirm whether the ICO is scam or hasslefree.

You just need to be more careful from the beginning. Crypto currencies are still standing for anonymity and there is no way to find out who the scammer was, so be advised and check every single aspect of a project before putting your money into it.
The best advantage and the worst disadvantage of crypto transactions is anonymity which makes it near to impossible for finding the real identity behind these fraudulent activities. Before investing in the project checking the whitepaper, asking questions from team members are old tested ways to detect scam but it doesn't work anymore.

The only way for them is to die because we don't have any choice they are very harmful to the crypto since last few years ago and until now. That's one od the reason why people are scared to enter to the crypto because they have a lot of scammer that saw in the news and even my friends that I want to invite at the cryptocurrency their mindset is their money will be scammed beacuse their think bitcoin is using to scam people.

I know that these fraudulent individuals have deeply hurt a lot of us but suggesting death makes us less human. The best penalty for such criminal act will be imprisonment from 15 to 21 years imprisonment including confiscation of assets
Maybe first that we can do is care with others. I mean, this is a forum. If we not really agree or maybe think if a project is not good for people, i think we free to discuss it in their thread. And people who really care with their investment, must take research from it and then can decide want to invest or not.

Just ask others to invest in project which is legit and worthy of investing. Investing without a proper research is what had given them a honeypot to steal. Spotting scammers and catching wouldn't solve a problem IMO.

Just give them no way or chance of stealing your funds and that will help to decrease the no. of scam projects we have right now since they will lose interest at some point of time.

Now there are a lot of scam projects on the market, i personally chose one project for myself, which i constantly follow and participate in the bounty of the company http://gexan.io/ this is their website, where there is all the information
And what, the project is a real worker and you can earn money for yourself?
They promise for a token of 0.7 dollars and of course access to the stock exchange, where we can sell all the tokens, why not try to earn there
