How to protect yourself and others from scammers?

[ayatoslaw]

most scamers don't want to be seen by the public, restrict themselves, and social media doesn't update.
for example, scam projects never post such as seminars, or the latest steps, or videos about CEOs and their teams or videos about the benefits and objectives of the project.

There's only one rule to follow to protect yourself from the cheaters. "NEVER GIVE YOUR PRIVATE KEYS" whatever happens do not let your keys stole by anyone by whatever means it maybe. Protect it by simply putting some security tools to enhance the protection of your keys.

I look at the team and especially at founders. Everyone today has a social network profile, and if we see in whitepapper that founder was working with some project for a long time but we could not find enough information about that project in social media, that means that either this founder has a small experience in advertising his project or this project even did not exist. So I try to avoid projects like this.

always vigilant in everything, not easy to trust anyone who is not yet known, not easy to invest in a project that is offered, ask for consideration to a more senior friend

I can only tell you how to prevent yourself self from being scammed. First rule, Trust nobody with your money. Always make use of escrow, Always do diligence research about a project before investing on it,  always confirm your doubts from professional.

You should not believe the subsequent man to start with.
then you should attentively test the man or woman or provider you've found. try to ask for proves with the intention to shield your self. there is so much scam around us that it is without a doubt hard to trust all and anyon.

There is no guarantee that you will never be scammed despite your due diligence. I agree with you that it is getting harder to spot a scam or fraudulent ICO. If you can verify the identity of the team and if they can provide a prototype product, that is a good sign that they are serious and legit

actually it is difficult to avoid scammers exactly. but we can make it true. Analyze the ICO exactly from the concept, team, and also community. Check and cross check them. It is important to be more careful.

I usually see from the team, website, whitepaper and the concept of the project that you want to develop, you should see the team's condition as best as possible and make sure the team has expertise that is very guaranteed.

tell everyone to using hardware wallet like ledger nano s, it's absolutely safe and better than using private key and phrase seed.

Now scammers have become more inventive.I believe that the ICO market has not outlived its usefulness. If the team is aimed at a good result,it should follow a few simple principles:
1) Real profiles of team members on the site,with links to profiles in social networks. Moreover, these people should be active and regularly update the information in the profile (photos,videos);
2) Regular maintenance and updating of information about the company on social networks(Reddit,Facebook,Twitter);

yes, it is difficult to distinguish bad and good projects but you can be careful of fraudulent signs such as profitability that is too good to be real, an unbearable offer, a lack of verifiable physical presence and a good structure between another.
