There are lots of ICO doing scam. I would like to know the ICO scammers of 2018. According to research, the following are the various types of ICO scams that users should watch out for:

  • Malware scams
  • Fake exchanges
  • Pump and Dump scam
  • Fake Bitcoin scam
  • Earn Free Bitcoin Scam
  • Ponzi schemes


Well, this is my true story. I can say, Bitpaction exchanges are the biggest scam exchanges.
Very unprofessional and now the site is gone. Many users are lost their money on that site.

Really it's not good for ICO. Because scam projects are increasing gradually and if it's continue then it will be felt very bad efffects on ICO project. Many lose their interest to invest on ICO projects for this scamming.

Scams are all bad for the crypto holders. People should be aware of these scams so that they can avoid them. But as you asked for what is the biggest scam in 2018, I would go for pump and dump scam.

You said all the right scams that occurred in 2018 but I think the Ponzi schemes, the pump and dump scam, fake bitcoin scams are the most big among all. People should learn about them so that they can avoid them.

PonziCoin, Benebit, Karbon, Ebitz, etc are some big scams of this year. I think i can give a huge list. We should be very careful about scam projects. Because if we are unaware, they can harm the most.

I think from last year we are seeing a huge amount of scam projects. People are really afraid of these scams. Pincoin, Plexcoin and Bitcard would be my first 3 picks as scam projects.

I think the Pump and Dump is the main point why people afraid to invest in the cryptocurrencies, the big whale and the fraud team have pump the coins and earn the big money, then dump the coins and do it again, so many people have lost the money and not want to invest in this shit market again.

Airdrop and bounty scams are also becoming of a trend.

I don't follow ICOs but when there are scams that are being busted, I'm reading those articles about them.

One of the biggest scam is ETH giving away on Twitter. Scammers are creating fake profiles of popular people and they are trying to scam other people on Twitter.
Yeah there are popular people that are being used for those scams. You need to send them ETH/bitcoin to be eligible to their giveaway but they aren't going to send you anything back. Only people who are greedy will be scammed by those.

Well I will it is pump and dump, we have seen a ton of pumps and dump this 2018, most task will enter trade and the cost will go so high and you contribute thinking the value minute is for genuine just to be dumped on, so pump and dump had been the greatest of this current year.
