People are afraid of scam projects because they were cheated by scams - there were not paid for their efforts or these tokens did not meet expectations.
Lucky I was - I have never encountered such projects though there were a couple of bounties that would pay in 4 months making me feel like I was played fool.

It is true that many people are thingking that bitcoin and the whole cryptoworld is a scam, probably because of their lack of knowledge about this new system. Another reason is because most newbies or the people who are just new in the cryptocommunity who have invested in some coins, lost their investments in a matter of hours or days, and it is really possible here because of the volatility of cryptocurrencies. Those are some of the reasons why many people think that bitcoin is a scam.
So many peoples are afraid to take a risk. That's why peoples think everyone is a scam.
But I don't think if everyone is a scam. They don't believed bitcoin, I think that's is main reason why they think everyone is scam.

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!

Because money is really a valuable thing, fraud is pervasive in news and social media, which is another reason why people think that certain things are fraudulent. In the Internet world, we should also be careful, because there are many scams on the Internet.
I don't think so but to my mind the answer is obvious because the number of scams has increased. It is difficult to define who is who. That's why a lot of people think that it is necessary to be careful with everyone
I would even say it is more like a defense mechanism for people. With the way the space has been over the years, it would be stupid for anyone not to question any service, so if the OP is real and people take him for being a scam, rather than taking it personal, which obviously will solve no problem, then he should at least prove himself worthy of not being called a scam. It is his business and he should at least know better how to sort that out.
People are just being careful that's why they are overthinking that everything is a scam. People thinking everything is a scam because of the threat to the people. Some of them are being influenced by what they hear,see and read mostly today all the information are being seen on the media where fake news and fraud are common.

The reason why people think that cryptocurrency is a scam is because of the different ico's today who are failing to fulfill their duties like paying the participants on a decent amount or some of them does not manage to sell their coins on the right way like reaching the soft cap.
People think that everyone is a scam because they afraid to take a risk. Also, they are afraid to loss their their money. And, also they have many fake news about bitcoin and other ICO that contribute the thought of other people not to trust in any other form of a decentralized coin. So that, they didn't lost anything and they will not enter in the crypto world.
I think the reason why they are saying bitcoin is scam is because they do not fully know what is bitcoin. They are not aware to what bitcoin can do and it is the reason why they they see bitcoin as scam.
actually they want to get cheap price.no one buy bitcoin in high price.so they make fud or saying scam every where, in order make other people panic and sell their asset.
We can't deny the fact there are some ICO developing in the blockchain are scam because many people have experience in some cases which is failure to paid the participants and just get away without nothing making silent.
Because they are dumb and/or lazy to do their own research regarding their investments so they end up losing their money in filthy scams. There are many serious projects around this space which really want to make a change in the world. Look for a solid team with a viable working product and business model. 
Some of them have really met great liars that managed to steal their money. Now, the people that were deceived think that everything and everybody are scammers.
When I was young, my parents always told me to don’t talk to a stranger because I don’t know the person. That is wrong the truth is don’t easily trust and believe the person. We can’t deny a lot of a person suffering from the scam. Scammer only one motivation to the people they want money. To have the money they will do the devil activities. Everywhere there is scammer not only in our country, not only to others country mostly in the social media. The government can’t drop or stop the scammer, so you are the one will avoid it.
In the crypto industry, it's easy to hide your real information and easily hide the movement of finance, so there are so many scammers here. The only good news is that they are getting smaller every year.
People today are so smart and they even scamming other people and they take advantages of what is the environment around them like in bitcoin they know that they are not traceable so they using it to scam other people. Some people think everyone is a scam because they didn't understand the flow in digital world.
The main thing is that your services are in demand, and bad reviews must be justified by evidence.
I think the other possibility is that in fact people who accuse you are actually competitors who sell similar or very similar products and they are just trying to make people afraid to buy your product or service.
You can not really blame them, there are a lot of scams on the forum and people are so suspicious it's almost paranoid of everything
They're just being careful. I think because they've been already get scammed and that is the reason why they very protective. Being scammed is very difficult to recover unlike lost or just accidentally put it somewhere.
When someone is hit by a scam once then it will they remember so that when there is a similar offer then he will think is a scam, of course as investors we must be careful but do not ever think that everyone is a scammer.
well, bad experience is always the main cause of all this. so, only those who dare take the risk of daring to take this path. has a lot of negative news for now regarding crypto, it is not wrong if potential investors are careful in this caseWell because there are a lot of scammer out there and people tend to generalize because they just want to protect their money specially here in the internet you can't trust anyone even your closest friend will scam you for the sake of money.
Yes, exactly everyone is just on their guard. Thus, I think that you shouldn’t blame them for what they are doing. Internet, what more, is somewhere that most of us know it has a numorous scammers and also definitely it is going to increase sequently. Everything both have its characteristic, that leads you to know that cryptocurrency is going on by internet, you have to accept. Pretend that you are in other situation, I guess that you would probably act or behave like the way they did. Generally, if you are not careful, you will lose what you have quickly.
Maybe because they've encountered a lot of scam in their engaging time for bitcoins. And it included me.
