Topic: THE OLD AND NEW MINING BITCOIN SCAM ALWAYS - page 2. (Read 655 times)
Yes, I have heard of such cheating before. Thank you that you are sharing this event with us. Looking forward to this post, I hope everyone will be careful, especially for a new post, this is a very useful post. We all should be more careful about these things.
The evil I have seen in this community is that people are either too greedy or just not willing to learn basic way to stay off scammers. Falling for a cheap scam like this is very insulting. Yet many are still swimming in the bad water and at the end, they would say online storage is too risky and unsecured. Was trying to teach a young graduate whose friend's bitcoin wallet got hacked some little about securing their wallet, he said nothing can work, so walk away.
I've been in mining before but I didn't encountered a scammer like this where in they will ask for details and connect you to the blockchain well only few people who doesn't have enough knowledge will be tricked by this, It's important that we should secure our personal details including our login details and we shouldn't be giving it to anyone.
A real support will just give guides and instructions on how are you going to set it up properly but wouldn't ask for any details and specific amount of coin/s.

thats what this topic was for,there are many newbies entering into the crypto world which is an advantage for the scammers so they trick them and get their things done and hence was the reason to spread the word !
Best to be wary about these type of individuals and the racket they try to get those who are new in crypto involved with them.
Has there been more scams than usual? I just keep seeing threads popping up on here talking about scams. Just makes me wonder if this is the shift to hiring more cyber security firms to help with KYC and AML compliance. I know ciphertrace is a recent partner with binance and has been able to track some of the biggest money laundering moves

The fraud scheme under the guise of bitcoin mining has always existed, various ways they always do so that the victims feel interested and obey what they say, one thing we must remember is that every fraud always promises maximum benefits so that potential victims can be easily tempted by this, so I suggest that you be more careful when getting a bitcoin mining business offer, make sure that they really aren't using you. I prefer to trade instead of mining, because with trading we can as we like to determine the profits we want.

I often get scam scheme on social media Instagram, I even once tried to follow their orders by making a new wallet that was empty and giving all details wallet to him but when he told me to deposit the account I left it. This scam scheme is very dangerous and it is possible that their targets are new people in the world of bitcoin.
I never see someone ask that question to me even in my past when I still using cloud mining 
I will always reject that thing if any people want to know my private keys, or login details, or anything personal information of me.
But after I got scam from cloud mining, I don't put my trust to them anymore because to believe the new cloud mining will be difficult to get profit and it's the same as expecting to get a profit from the old cloud mining.
It is better to do other things and don't expect much about cloud mining.
But I admitted that there still any cloud mining that was still running until now and mostly, they are recommended and trustable cloud mining so far.

People must be really stupid and naive,in order to fall into this scam. I don't see the point of connecting a wallet with "mining pool" and all that shit. The "minimum requirement" of having some coins in your wallet is completely stupid. More noobs should be aware of this scam.
Again and again, we have to remind people especially those new in cryptocurrency and investing to never believe everything you see, heard and see online as there will always be scammers just lurking around and if you show some signs of being gullible then you have more chances of being their next victim. Cryptocurrency is a new brave world with opportunities as well as threat and scams are just one of the many threats we should be aware of. Scammers are genius in appealing to our sense of greed and when we bite then we are left with nothing but empty bags.
This has been happening for such a long time and it's great to see that people are already aware of this. They're actually targeting beginners and those who would want to start mining, trading and investing. We should get rid of this type of scheme because they would only do things to fool us and to steal our earnings.
Absolutely
Unfortunately some unexperienced people will still fall on this trap, either they need money and don't think they will can lose also the money they have or either they want a fast profit.

Thankyou guys for taking time on this ! We need to protect our own assetts as well share the knowledge to help preventing these scams and noobs to help them not to fall into scams !
I found somebody in chat who deposited .5 BTC in cloud mining because he was promised that he will get 1 BTC after a month.
I do not know, this should be common sense that you should not send your money like this.
Anyway , I have written a post about prevalent crypto scams.

I think people should educate themselves first.
I mean how can anyone be fooled with such a scam after so many years.

Exactly,everybody into CRYPTO are completely aware of it and for seniors these scams might sound sillly and people falling for it might look stupid ! But thats how it is,everyone getting into CRYPTO cant become a HERO the first day so sharing few points in the forums for awareness doesnt harm !
to be accurate this has nothing to do with mining!
basically the scammer asks you to give him your private keys and then asks you to send coins to those keys, and if you do, the simply steals them. the scammer in this scenario is using combination of greed plus lack of knowledge (or laziness to do research) of the victims. otherwise that excuse they use to get your private keys is very easy to detect, it doesn't matter if they are using mining as an excuse, trading (API keys), doubling bitcoin,....

I know it has nothing to do with Mining but the conversation itself is initiated luring people saying you can earn btcoins by mining !!
