What is Scam?
Scam is a dishonest scheme that is carried out by an individual or groups of persons in mode of taking away something that is valuable to others. Those who perform these acts are reffered to as scamers.

How do people get involved, how easily are people scammed and reasons?

Many individuals think of the internet as a get rich quick scheme and once they are exposed to any form of investment promising high ROI, witjout a second taught they jump onto it, you and I as well know how this will end? In a nutshell, GREED is a factor

Secondly the inability to conduct research and make real findings on our own. All this as a result of laziness.

I entreat all of us to be on the look out for scan projects, make our findings and proof beyound doubts their scam intentions and also avoid been greedy when making an inveatment

Seen as a easier money taking scheme. You can not see this kind of behavior in Forex, because people are aware of the slower movement of prices, they can not easily get what they want with such small movements, also at the end you will face loss without knowledge. However, the chance factor in the cypto is like a new door to them. In this case it is not trade, it has one name: Gambling.

The some reasons why people are getting scammed is because they don't have any knowledge about the internet and also they don't know how big internet is and they also don't know what would be the internet can do in everytime lives. People get scammed also through the used of internet or computer is because they don't know what they are accessing into so that they become being cave man about the internet.

Its like buying a new gadget you aren't familiar with and throw away the manual script, newbies don't want to learn, they think internet is for those who wants to make quick money, any scammer can easily trick people this days but since they don't want to learn the easy way they will learn the hardway

Not only newbies falls victim of scam, anybody can fall victim of it. You shouldn't just generalize it that way. Once there's greediness in you, there's every tendency you'll fall for scam easily.

It's a new trend. Scammers are working in shadow's, they can hide their face,
they can work from anywhere as long as they have internet and computer. It's
easy to be a scammer in that conditions.
People get easily scammed first time, after that they start paying more attention
and it's get harder to scam them.

One of the main factors that prompt investors and bounty hunters is lack of crypto knowledge. Mostly, people follow big (often false) promises made by crypto projects even without daring carry out a research thoroughly. As a result, they often end up in being scammed. So research is most important factor to escape being scammed.

Once newbie come across any way of making money online they will want to give a try to confirm if it will really work or not, they put aside research or reviews on such idea of money making maybe its scam or it does works, too eager to make money is the first wrong step humans make

Ignorance is what really makes some people fall on scams. Although it's not easy to distinguish a scam scheme, but we should dig deep into where we put our money into and look for license if needed.

We can say they are just lack of knowledge and experience. I'm pointing to the newbies which are after making an easy profit.
They don't even spend their time to learn and understand first before taking any actions, that's why they can easily get scammed in the internet.

Basically we can identify them if they aren't really reading comments and verifying the legitimacy of each topics. But on the other hand, we cannot blame them for the knowledge they can get is far way broader compared to when we are in our newbie stage. What is better is for them to look at the threads specifically in the beginners thread, there are posts that can help them avoid being scammed.

People get scammed on the internet out of desperation for something, typically for money. Out of desperation, a person loses the stable sense of making sound decisions and ones this stage is reached, the individual is apparently blinded to the identification all forms of scam. It is very good to always stay calm in our adventures on the internet and take time to research well especially to all forms of enticing offers that comes on the internet.

Exactly. There are so many educational threads and so many warmings and advices but people still neglect after watching how these scam happens.

There is a saying "When there is a thing too good to be true, that ain't true in the crypto world". ( I guess was in one of the cointelegraph articles)

Due to the high expectation of an individual especially those new to this industry, they can easily bite the bait of scammers. They lack of knowledge and experience to tell if what they are going to try is risky or dangerous. Most of them are victims of promising a big return in a short period of time, which is we all know that it is impossible even in cryptocurrency.

Because they are following the wrong leaders, and reading the wrong articles, they follow leaders and articles created by bounty hunters, we all know that bounty hunters are paid to shill tokens and coins they are paid to promote, people should differentiate bounty hunters and researchers, so you'll know who is shilling and who is promoting the right token.

I don't know what drives people when they easily fall victim to scams. It seems to me that you always need to analyze the situation very well and not believe anyone. Methods of fraud are changing and it is better to always be on the lookout.

Personally I think a lot of those people would be scammed on the phone, or even in person. A lot of older people and unexperienced internet users often understand getting scammed and think people online are the same as meeting someone in person.

Their mindset would just be "I wouldn't ever get scammed in person by a person or company, so how would someone online be able to scam me! I'll be able to call the police".

It's pretty rare nowadays though, people have gotten a lot smarter and understand things better.

Scammers can get absolutely anyone. And it won't necessarily be newcomers. Beginners may fall for easier ways because of their naivety. But for more experienced users, there are more sophisticated ways. There are always new schemes of fraud and you need to be always on the alert, because no matter how much experience you have, you can still become the next.

There other ways by which people also fall victim of scam and not scam projects this time. A lot of people have heard of wallets being hacked. Although, sometimes greed can be associated with it, but it goes behind that. It can happen as a result of ignorance, by unknowingly and without much knowledge, expose your security details to s scammer.

because they don't know what is it.
basicaly they just follow what a trend on internet , and well, mostly didn't research or something like that.
lack of education about crypto is a major factor why scams are so easy to do.
because most of veteran just busy to grow their pocket self.
