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 have also been scammer on a number of projects, and after that I got wiser when I decided to invest. Of course, you need to go through those hard times to know what will happen to you if you choose the wrong project. One way or another, you have to improve yourself more and more and always consider carefully when deciding to invest in any project.

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.
That's what i have been learned from the bankera's case. So many investors have been ignoring so many awareness thread about the owner of bankera was a scammer.
Mostly investors are so lazy to check it before try to invest on it.
They only think about the benefits before seeing the risk of what will happen to be deceived so they do not do research on what they invest. Bankera is one example of many victims who might even become victims of doing research.

I no longer believe in ICO sales anymore.

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.

Majorly it's newbies that will fall for this as of now no ok'd crypto member will fall for that scam truck except for the greedy ones. It's not right to pay for what you are given for free.

The urge, zeal, greed to get rich quick. I really dont understand why people seem to believe that cryptocurrency is a get rich quick scheme. Yea, I know the events that occurred in 2017 could proof otherwise but that was that and no one knows if that's gonna happen again. The trick is, anyone or project that gives promises that are too good to be true, RUN!!!
I am kinda disgusted with that kind of mindset. Let's just all conclude that every single doublers are purely scam, because I think that's where most of the victims fell off mostly.

From project, I think the lack of research is what makes them fall for it. Let's all call it that joining bounties, investing in projects, promoting a product also involves investments as well. Time and effort.

I think only innocent, ignorant and newbies on cryptocurrency are only victims to an obvious scam.

Precisely if what its means will hook to the word itself, obvious means you already knew about it.

Because i think there is no one experienced crypto trader or investor that falls to an obvious scam.

If experienced trader, it will perform his task  researching  first before investing.


They might fall easily on such scam it is because of the big allocation rewards.

Greed cover this kind of attitude, people who are more interested to gained a lot mostly
victimized by this scheme.

I think some people still fall for the scam because the benefit of them getting profits weighs higher than the risk. People are not investigating that much.
I think they are newbie to this market, they are greedy and want to profit quickly. That's why so many people are stuck in this market with scammer projects
Greed when investing in this market is inevitable, but I advise you to consider carefully before investing in any project because new projects can always put you at risk. I think newcomers often fall victim because they want to get rich quickly and often ignore the advice of others that makes them lose money, and until now, that's still happening.
All projects are risky, but if you choose the top altcoins in this market, the risk is lower than new projects. I am not too interested in new projects right now because the profits are very low, but it can make me lose a lot if it collapses.

Living the truth....

I see a lot of people who have a lot of experience in this market but they still invest in bullshit and scam projects. The reason is that they are greedy and want to get rich as quickly as possible. Always remember that this market is only for people who have patience, and no project can help us get rich quickly.

Looking for gigs
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

Today a bitcoin trader on twitter exit scam and delete all traces off social media, i heard its about 53bitcoin, here is the link to the news

https://coinnewstelegraph.com/bitmex-bitcoin-fund-manager-exit-scams-before-christmas/

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

These newbies would never learn about joining these scammish opportunities. Here’s the process:

Invest -> Wait -> Scammed -> Repeat

They are always looking for easy money rather than working hard for it. I understand that people like us want to have that kind of passive income for life. However, if we really want it to happen, we need to do it through hardwork, perseverance along with smart decisions.

There are opportunities out there that are truly legit, but you need to work hard for it rather than putting your hard-earned money in those non-promising scam ponzi opportunities.

Well for me the main reason why people are easily getting scammed is because of one word - gullibility. When there are tens of millions of people that are pinning their hopes to get rich quick schemes they will do everything so they can get the investment money they could get. They will set aside their logical thinking and put all their trust to people with shady personalities masked by eloquence in speech and skills in acting and deceiving. I really pity those who have wasted their time and money going from one scam to another. One should learn valuable lessons after a first mistake.

Not all scam are obvious but you are right that people still fall for cheap scam tricks, I believe the reason behind this is lack of knowledge, those who put learning aside will fall for cheap schemes in crypto space, no where is safe online if you don't seek for knowledge
