Topic: this is, how easy it is to scam people - page 3. (Read 487 times)

you didn't read conversation properly and talking about me scamming her, i am just giving you example of people's mind

i didn't try or scam anyone , you seems like rushed to give reply

Oga from what I read from you and the lady's conversation, you cannot scam that lady, she only asked you to guide her how to make money from bitcoin and you are thinking of scamming who needs help from you. Your thought is very bad even though you were not having the intention to do that and by thinking such is bad, if the bad mindset manifest you might do it to other people. I have thought a lot of novice on WhatsApp, Facebook and other social media platforms and I have never thought of even collecting money for the service I rendered to them. And also you have to be careful on Telegram. That lady that was asking to guide her might be an imposter. So you might even be scammed. Be clean in all ramifications of life.

yes,
but the lady was hooked up with her mentor whose account was seems like scammer posting just irrelevant charts and luxury lifestyle,

may these type of person with very less knowledge are less but this was my conversation , may she was trying to scam me who knows.

She is like most of newbies and new comers in cryptocurrency. They are attractive by stories like Bitcoin Pizza but then they believe in Altcoin pizza stories that are not realistic. Very few altcoins can survive after many years and can help them to gain good profit like Ethereum, BNB, Dogecoin. They are barely seen altcoins. Other altcoins only make them poorer.

Nothing is wrong to believe in your mentor until a moment your mentor asks you to send him or her money. If my mentor asks me to do so, I am out immediately.

It is a common method in life and not only exist in cryptocurrency. So I don't feel strange if anyone tries to scam me with this method.

A good mentor will teach you do do things by yourself, not doing things on behalf of you and if it is related directly to your money, it sounds like too good to be true mentor, more like a scammer.

That's an obvious way to promote her friend's accounts but the fact is it's also her account there are lots of them on telegram with the same strategy pretending as a newbie. They try to convince you and gives you suggestion or link and then they are going to force you to deposit.

Many newbies out there still fall into this kind of strategy. So always be aware and ask trusted people if they are legit or not or better discuss it here so that trusted people here will advise you what to do.

oh really that reminds me to conversation few years ago, when i first in crypto some people tell like that.
i almost got trapped but my friend say me that a scam, so i leave him and never affected by it again.
.

No rational, honest human being asks for investment or financial assistance in social media. And even if there is one, it's really not worth the risk to guide. You're most likely going to lose your time, because they'll be scammers.

Also, don't reveal on social media that you own bitcoin, because you're an immediate target.

You obviously understand, it really showed that he does not understand how scammers operate. Several approaches have been sent to my Telegram account. First, I check if we shared a group, if not, then I get careful. My name, location, and gender are all I can tell an intruder in my PM, aside from that, I try to keep my identity private. Messages sent privately are suspicious, so don't be fooled by any approach.

Based on the conversations it seems someone who ask you about Bitcoin is the scammer since she is ask you to follow the account which offer to make money via trading, but since you're aware with this scam, she doesn't want to continue the conversations.

She might only act dumb, who knows if she's a scammer and someone who control the self pro claimed Bitcoin trader's account.

oh, yes this can happen,
but , by conversation she really doesn't know anything about it,
she is telling me to guide her, which is a clear sign to not selling me course or guidance

this is just an example i found on instagram,

Why don't you think otherwise? He's actually trying to trick you. He's trying to direct you to someone who offers you 90% of the return on investment.
There is no real woman if she is some random girl who starts a profitable investing conversation. So stay careful, and don't assume you're smarter than "beginners".

i uploaded an awesome bitcoin profile picture on instagram, 3 days ago,
but today a lady contacted me by Dm "hi" - "you know about bitcoin?" - "I am new to bitcoin", "can you guide me to make money from it "
she don't want to learn anything just wanted to make money out of bitcoin, her knowledge about bitcoin is very very less, she only knew the name "bitcoin"
she was talking like "bitcoin=money"
I said i can guide you to learn about bitcoin,
i said bitcoin is like digital money, you can buy it at a specific price and sell it at higher price when price will rise , this is how the money made from it .
i said this because she only wanted to make money, i don't talked about much stuff.
she said "i am following a bitcoin expert" , just a instagram account holder with some trading charts  posted ,
i said ,you have an exchange account
she said 'what is meant by exchange",
i said exchange where you can buy cryptocurrency, exchanges like binance,kucoin, etc.
she said "oh, i am with binance "
she does not know anything about binance and basic terms just made an account following her mentor.
she is so dumb to scam her.
