Most of the scams action I know is they offered you an amount. If you join they'll ask you to spend that amount. When you withdraw they will ask you for another amount. If you have that amount they will ask you for a specific amount to be withdrawn.

That's obviously a scam for me.

DeFi for the most part is a scam to watch out for, RUG PULLS is a word people made to not make it look bad but they are pretty clear scams.

Ponzi is usually a red flag for me after I almost lost my tuition fee to one back in college. Pump and dump is something o recently got to know about, like you said it's advisable to do more research before investing and not to invest money we're not willing to lose.

I think Ponzi Schemes are one of the worst kinds. There are a lot of "legitimate" business that are nothing but Ponzi Schemes with a license to work and so many people fall thor them

Unfortunately, I fell for a few of these traps; but thankfully those situations didn't put me in any financial straits. With that said, I was gullible. You live and you learn. Not I could trust mofos as far as I can throw them.

So many scams out there. Was just talking with bobthebuilder2 about charity scams becoming common in crypto as well. And they take away from legit folks who need the money too.

I know of one such that's launching tomorrow and I'm just thinking how the heck do people get away with this let alone sleep at night doing this kind of crap to people.

Most of them happen to the ones I see quite often. I do remember seeing those videos where people exposed those coaching scams they can combine tactic 4 and 5. It's a nasty little plan and they target people who don't have confidence but keep paying in.

Delightful messages. Despite the fact that I am not the first year in cryptocurrency, I have learned a lot of new and interesting things for myself. Respect

you are so right about it. I think some ponzis are still brewing by having promotional posts "locked". wonder what happens if those funs should be "unlocked"

Great advice. I'm still wary of DeFi because it sounds so much like ponzi scheme. One day I will do the research...

Well that could be said about any cryptocurrency or the stock market as well lol IPO, ICO those that get in early and then dump on everyone else lol

True. Maybe I should invest in carrots and potatoes.

Great info!

A recent scam I'm getting tired of is one I keep receiveng on discord, a btc eth giveaway with a code, they all look the same, even the websites, different names but same stuff.
I tried to register to one with some fake details out of curiosity and after you enter the given code you receive something like 5 eth or 0.3 btc , and if you try to withdrawal you can't because you need to verify your account by depositing at least 0.1 btc 😂😂😂

I do sincerely hope no one got scammaed by this!!!

Thanks for sharing. Everyone should educate themselves and do their own research. Don't be lazy and try to get rich quick. And I totally agree with:

DO NOT INVEST ANY MONEY or TIME YOU ARE NOT WILLING TO LOSS.
