You can't stop people from falling to scam, both in real life and in the cryptocurrency scene. There is always a gullible person not knowing any better and falling for a scam. Why do you ask? Because they're a greedy person that wants to get rich quickly.
Or maybe they are new to this cryptocurrency system and don't know a thing about it and think that this is a regular thing for Crypto related people to giveaway coins for free or sending them our coins and they would just double our money.  Or it can be as you said that they are greedy and think that it is easy money or free money that they can easily make in no time at all and that person is very clever that he could this wonderful tweet which no one found till now.

As for me personally, even when I first came to crypto and was a beginner, I was very careful when investing in this or that project. I could be wrong with the choice of airdrop or bounty, it upset me, but not too much, since I was only losing my time, but not money. But I still think that it's not greedy people who often fall for scam tricks, but mixed-up and gullible people.
When you start, it seems like you have a good observation not to rush into having crypto assets. because observing the market and some good projects not only in their markets. but our project and team development must also look at it and examine it for future planning. I was almost caught up in an investment suggested by a friend to buy some crypto assets, but fortunately, I did not buy it.

I wont completely blame those who are still falling for scammers , some of them may be newbies who do not understand the cryptoworld and how to identify scammers . Remember the scammers wont announce that they are one. another father is greed , this a times even affect those who are old in crypto . They want to sell their assets high or buy low as such they may refuse to use Escrow or Exchange  just becasue the price favours them either to buy or sell.

Because people are a broad term with both smart and dumb into it. Like we can't stop the nature of the dumb people and they will keep falling for the obvious scams. The only thing we can do is reduce it.
This is so true, it's never possible to totally stop scams since some people will always fall for even the obvious scams. Many measures have been put inplace to reduce scams over time, yet it still persists. The big question is, when will people stop being greedy? When will people use common sense to differentiate between scams and legit investments? If greed factor is taken away, most people won't easily fall for scams promising unrealistic ROI.

For you to evade scam at least you need to have a little knowledge by experience or someone's story, because it is not easy. Scammers come in different forms. Just be careful and do your best.

Scammers are much better to do anything, most especially in fraudulent activities. Maybe we don't care due to the unexpected difficulties even though it is an obvious scam, usually, people always have the right suspicion and always dare to have the latter. Actually, because of this kind of attitude, we lead scammers free to enter anytime and the problem is not the only one who has victims in two seconds.

When it's to good to be true then it's usually a no go. That's with this scam. Scammers are so shameless and unfortunately a lot of people fell for it. I found this article about the hack:

Because they did not research before investing, in addition they were greedy when choosing low altcoins and hoped it would be pumped one day. I used to be like that when I first joined this market, and now I have learned a lot of experience from it.

People want to earn easy money and we know that this doesn't exist, they still think that will earn easy
Who thought that making money would be easy to do? anyone will not be easy to make money at this time, let alone in crypto, in the real world it is very difficult to find the name of money, so think logically.

Many people are greedy to earn for short period, the reason why they are falling to scam because of lack of knowledge and didnt conduct a research. Its a human nature to let their emotion control them when it comes to money.

To prevent ourselves becoming a victim of scammers think many times before engaging yoursef in an investment with a high return in a short time frame, thats shady and most likely a scam.

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.
the harsh reality, many people are attracted to capital that is not so large, but the results are very large. people prefer to take risks by choosing investments like that rather than choosing investments that are certain. although the capital is large with a small profit, but it is better than the opposite. Scammers sometimes use things like that to attract people, and of course many are interested in it.

For newbies without any crypto knowledge it won't be that easy to smell any foul play or detect any scam activities in a project or any crypto things, this is why its best for new crypto comers to first take their time to so research and seek for knowledge about crypto safety before spending a penny on crypto

Greed and the feeling of false hope are seductive to people who are already in financial trouble. It´s like the Matthew effect kicks in, the rich gets richer and the poor get poorer. Emotions whatever kind of were always bad advisors for investing. The whole situation just showed that there is still a lot of educating to do.

They fall victim due to lack of knowledge and research. They want fast profits that's why they ended joining hyip and scam projects. Investing is risky but through research, you can avoid scam.
The only reason they have such a scam is their greed. They want to get rich quickly in this market so they chose scam projects that offer extremely good offers to make them invest. I believe that after a few times like that they will have experience in this market and will never want to get rich quickly. Grin

If you are new in crypto space and you haven't had any experience about scams you will fall victim one way or the other but not learning from your mistake is wrong because you might fall victim all over again, for newbies no scam is obvious.

Well, lets think logically, if they could get big profit with trading, they would just trading with their own money, not asking our money.
We should know that every trading activities have risk and there is no zero risk or guarantee that we will get profit from their trading.
