-Up yor authority by being helpful to others on the forum and endorsing people who already have a high status and credebility here


That sound like to much work, do I have to do all of them  Sad

No no, just grab a fake pic off google of a person in a business suit and write made up profits, that's all you really need to do to scam people.

Haha, yes - and if you want to scam people in real life, make up some wild proof of current earnings, shave and wear a suit.

I can only talk for myself, but those things doesn't work to persuade me in any way. As for people stupid enough to be fooled. A fool and his money is easily parted. That may sound very arrogant, but really, a lot of people losing money, have themselves to thank. I don't deny that something things happens out of the blue, but usually there are signs, and when in doubt, don't!

The vid is good, quinced my toes on every of the six points, as I know how easy i'm suckerd in these scenarios described.

The amount of work in scamming: You have to come into the "family zone" so peoples guards are down, be the uncle of bitcointalk. 2 years work for millions, that sounds all right!

This should be in the scammer sticky:

"How to be a succesfull scammer on Bitcointalk in six easy steps"

-Start with compliments to others and give gifts

-join in on threads and explain why you feel / think exactly the same as the OP, post pictures of a dog and children and claim they are yours.

-have other endorse your credentials, link your self to some succesfull business past, fake of cause.

-present your scam as; scarce, high return with no downsides don't ever answer a question with "thats a business secret" or "they have chosen to remain annonymous" just elaborate about a named partner in china and link to a website in Korea. take credit for others achivements.

-often mention people by name who have bought in to your scam and how much they are making use fake accounts if needed to get it going.

-Up yor authority by being helpful to others on the forum and endorsing people who already have a high status and credebility here

-pay return first to small amount customers, later only acccept larger long term customers
