Now a days ,it is better to trade with escrow.Because I had lose 500$ with one trade ,which I had try with the trust in people .And why should we take risk in money matter.After that incident,I won't do a trade without escrow.

due to experience and issues that why everyone is careful enough to trade because all of us wants to pay off our hard work for long years that's why many of us is seeking for a legit and good trader.

It seems as though there is a predominant attitude about people trying to do business that most people are scammers. We have run into this time and time again, accusing us of running "dirty" money or stolen goods. We put ads or offers in various places saying "vetted buyer" and "respected escrow" and still get negative comments from people that don't even want to do business. They would just rather demean and abase and not add any positive thoughts. I will say that we have had pretty good success in spite of the naysayers. Doing business in this way is new to most people and seems foreign. But we have plodded through and have achieved a success that has proved that not all are wrong.
There are people all over that are looking for honest services, and we have carved a niche for that entity. We know that there are scammers out there, but we are working to elevate us to a position of reknown. Not all offers are scams!

Not all offers are scams, of course but the problem is that many are and since we are dealing here with eCommerce or the digital world there is a need for an entity to first established a good track record or a trusted brand before many will trust doing business with you. And with all the scams around this is just a natural and expected reaction from many people who have been victimized by scammers online and even offline. We are living in a trust-less world and this is partly one reason why Satoshi Nakamoto invented the blockchain technology. Good thing that despite all the odds the business you are talking about still managed to make it through...and now you are all ready to take advantage of the goodwill the business was able to established so far. Congrats.

The people always think about the scam, specially when they are against the said project or the crypto currency. Plus the issues on Banned, and Regulation of some countries that are accepting the Bitcoin market trading. But the good news they are always and will always be in the Dark. Negative people will go down as they are always talked about what is not good about crypto currency, while the crypto currency market trading are growing more each day. The fundamentals are more stable with the increase volume of investment, confidence on market shows very good out look.

You can't blame people for this. In fact, I would actually advise anyone to assume that every opportunity is untrue until vetted by themselves. There's also a lot of wisdom to that all-too-familiar phrase "if it's too good to be true..."

Anyway, I'm responding to say you shouldn't take it personally. We all started out with difficulties, but the thing to learn is patience and openness. From the beginning, be fully transparent and clear about communicating your message.

If you say you have a trusted escrow, then name the escrow and let the person vouch for you. If you're saying vetted buyer, then present the details for the public to vet.

Question all your own offers first, find the weaknesses, before making it public. Good luck.
Simple as it as. Almost all of us here have one way or the other experienced some level of scam even on a high scale that no one would have thought. It is the way the internet space is and I wonder why someone would just pop out from nowhere with a service that involves holding of money and expect questions not to arise as a scam. He should only be able to find a way to defend himself or probably find a way to stand out from not being a scam but as long as he is not able to do that, no one would just fall for something like that.
Scams are growing rampantly from anywhere in the globe and so people become more vigilant to whatever they deal with, making security in high precedence. Due to this fraudulence many are losing their trust to whatever they read, hear, and see, it could be online, in the public, or in any forms though some of them are truly legit. It could be hard to determine how legit differs from fake, but I think we should be guarded all the time and be aware of the possibilities. We can help ourselves from becoming a sufferer of scam by taking some vital factors, such as double checking the online domain name, browsing the website, checking return policy, reading online reviews, to never provide personal info like bank accounts, PIN or paying by bank transfer. I firmly believe what's more important is to let honesty rise above all and let it stay in ourselves first.

Scammers existed, exist and will exist. In each sphere there are villains who are trying to cash in on someone else's business. You need to be careful, but do not ignore all, relying only on their own strength. If you do not trust anyone and focus on betrayal, it will surround you! Be honest with yourself and your environment, then you will be surrounded by honest people!

Because that is how humans mind has been programmed by social media and our investment class and promoters.  For you to promote your projects very well you have to label others people as scam and that build a message in the subconscious of others and that has been and it shall be.

The reason behind this is because of the scams that are happening around the world. They are aware of the scams and they are just afraid that their money will be scammed to if they invest it on a business or in an ICO. We can't blame people for this especially people who are scammed by those fucking scammers. Let them be and for us, lets just do some in deep research before we invest our money into a company or business.

So many people has that believe because they are saying it from their personal experience. Some people have invested their had earn money in a project that later turn out to be scam and doing business with people and at the end they scam you and ran away with investors money , that is the reason why people find it difficult to believe others.

Agree! but there are many other projects giving more returns they never expected. Negativity will make more noise compared to positive news. I do agree there are many scam projects running by fake people but as a newbie, we have to learn basic things where to invest. Without researching simple investing will not give us huge profits.

At present there are scammers in the whole world. It is now natural to fall prey to fraud in any work. There is no way to understand who is good and who is evil. Nevertheless, the reality and time is for the sake of time. But believing someone is now being treated with kindness.So people think everyone is a scam.

People are distrustful of crypto-currency, and some consider it even fraud, because most of them are not directly looking for information about it and are not acquainted with it in more detail, but content with the information that is sometimes given in the media and comes from state and banking structures. And such information is not always accurate and not always true. This is especially true of information coming from banks, which directly try to divert people from using crypto currency. Not always objectively in this respect are the mass media, which sometimes provide customized information.

As in the above quote, in most cases this is the reason to think everything a scam. When a newbie gets into the cryptocurrency network he will be easily targeted and sometimes due to greed they get caught into the hands of scammers. Those people when loose their hard earnings, it makes them stay away from these thinking everything related to cryptocurrency a scam.

It is a question of trust and trust it is hard to win over others. It is true that scams happened but even so there are a lot of positive examples in the crypto market.

This happens due to the reason that nowadays there are a lot of scammers and everyone is afraid of meeting the one. It is necessary to be very careful, otherwise, you may lose everything you have. As for me, trading is risky because you don't know whom to trust
