Just to get it cheap will always get the humans to see things right anytime without investigate the sources of the gifts. Of a truth, obvious scams are what makes many in this industry fall for scammers, imagine asking the victims to send their hard earned money to get double of their deposits. That's outright greediness on the part of those victims.

Still? It's not like they are targeting crypto veterans. There are new people flowing in all the time who don't have a clue about crypto scammers yet, and greed is hell of a bait for anyone who think that crypto is a fast way to riches, like most of the newcomers think.
Good point, the cryptocurrency has thousands of newborns into the market, and these scammers are well understood the ways to scam the people, though, they are still catching some of these victims because of their greediness which is part of humans weakness. Don't fall for obvious scams that are all around the social medias, be guided.

A very sad experience and sad people still fail for such scam. You do not have to give someone you don't know your funds to keep for you or trade for you. Family disappoints talk more of friends or online claimed traders you know nothing about. Guys let's be careful and watchful please.

So long as there is an opportunity and new people joining either the internet or the crypto space there will be scams. And they work because people are gullible and want to be getting rich quick without fully understanding what it is they're getting involved with.

You know people want easy money, hoping not a scam that they have invested it. Most of the victims were newbies but I hope that those victims learned their lessons to not fall high ROI in just a short time because this offer is mostly scam.
investing in IEO or ICO that is held on an unpopular exchange will make investors regret, yes and new investors of course, because those who have been playing for a long time will not buy IEO that is not clear

For sure there are always some newbies that are going to fall to this kind of scams since they don't have enough experience.

When I was getting started in cryptocurrency I probably go invest in some scam website because you know it, because it has big profit that you wanted.

There are probably scam websites that you could still earn with an affiliate link so I try investing anyway since I want to profit but end up to the website to close getting all of the funds.

Unfortunately, nothing can be done about it, because there are very strong trusting people and they are ready to transfer their money to scammers even on the worst conditions, so there will always be newcomers and trusting people who can be easily fooled.
Yes, and I think that is a very natural thing, because new people who are not yet familiar with the scammer's strategy will obviously be very easy to be fooled by scammers who are already very smart, so for those who already know about this, it's good to always tell to those who are still very new here, so they are not immediately fooled by scammers.
That's because those people are easy to give their trust even in a stranger,

Newbies commonly believe to anyone, since they are new, they are most likely to believe everything that a stranger will say to them. Scammers are wise or smart enough to make fool of newbies, they always have a way just to make money from others.

Why do people still fall victims to obvious scams? Especially on twitter people are still sending bitcoin to traders, no one is a perfect trader, do not send bitcoin or other coins to people to trade for you, its stupid and foolish idea

Pls stop, there is no such thing as easy money, its either you learn or you quit or else you will keep losing money

I believe this is due to several factors. The first of them is the desire to earn a lot and quickly. Very often there are people who, to the best of their stupidity and lack of knowledge, believe that they are lucky and will now earn quickly. The second problem is not the desire of people to delve into the proposal and study it. In my practice there were such people, I asked them why they do not want to study information, but try to believe everything that they are offered? The answer was this, we don’t want to waste time studying, we just play the lottery, we’re lucky - we’ll be unlucky. To be honest, I don’t understand such people. So it turns out that laziness very often leads people to lose money.

Unfortunately, the reality of life is that people very rarely learn from other people's mistakes. I think that many of us have somehow fallen for the tricks of scammers and have learned a lot from this experience. I think that everyone will pass this way.
Their mind can change anytime based on the situation. I should remind you anything can affect the personal opinion from someone. So many people that have even learned a lot from the past experience can get into the same trap again.  People must try learn to ignore anyone and believe in themselves.

What is there to be surprised at? Human greed and stupidity are ineradicable. Therefore, this kind of fraudulent operations will be an integral part of the crypto industry. And the closer to the «bullrun» the more scammers will offer naive hamsters profitable investment strategies))
That's right, they are so naive and stupid in this market. They need to meet a few scam projects and then I believe they will quickly recognize and have knowledge about it. I have advised my friends a lot in the past but because of his greed, he was still involved in scam projects and then lost all his money.

I couldn't agree more, for this life to really be balance, there must be some individuals that ought to be naive and they are across every sector and investments options. It seems to be the natural order of things because greed is a born desire in humans and to certain extents,not everyone has control over it

There is a special section on the forum "Scam Accusations", where each participant can be warned about scams. But if you look at the number of views of topics about scams located there, it becomes clear that this section is not popular with participants. Some people go there to complain that they have lost their money, even though they might have seen a warning there in advance.

I think most of the people who are fall into an obvious is the people who are new in crypto feild. There are so many kind of scam and scammers has their own ways of convencing people who are really new in crypto. I believe that some people who are newbie is really prone on scam because they are lack of experience,people with experience will not fall into the obvious scam because they know already about scam and maybe they experience being scam so many times before.

I feel it is nothing but the obvious reasons of making more than they can think or imagine within a short period of time. The scammers fill the victim minds of missing out then sweet talk them into buying into the obvious scam.

Be smart and don't lose your money, yes most people doesn't learn from others mistake but if everyone doing the same thing doesn't mean you also need to follow their path.Crypto market is filled with lot of scammers but 90% of the scams could be easily avoided if we use our common sense because they are simply blatant scams like ponzi,guveaways or similar high returns schemes.
That I don't remember asking for your advice on what to do or how to act.
But according to your message, you did not lose money on fraudulent schemes and scams!? If this is true, I will be happy to read about your strategy and investment pathways.

Maybe those people are new to crypto so they do not know that kind of scam. Unlike to other people who are already involve for a long time in crypto, they already new that kind of system/scam. When the time that I was new to crypto,  I encounter some airdrops that requires donation. Altough I hesitate to so I did not complete filling up the information needed in that airdrop, I came up withba conclusion that it was scam
