There will be more scams in the upcoming bull run

[Mr. Magkaisa]

        -      In this bull run that we are facing now, the scam is becoming more and more acute in the tap mining games that are doing airdrops on Telegram, so our fellow crypto enthusiasts should take extra care so that they don't fall prey to just wasting time.

Now another way of crypto scamming is through phishing links that steal money via people's bank accounts and Amazon and PayPal accounts, and the scammer uses cryptocurrency or bitcoin.

I am also agree with your comment. Because we could saw in this incident to past. I also think that we do facing bul run in the cryptocurrency market. If we follow in 2021,  we can see this same incident. If we follow in maiming game which is involved in telegram airdrop. We also saw that scammers stolen more money from banks. They also stolen money from many way,  which one is phishing links. So we should be must aware from this system. Because i believe that if we should be careful to crypto currency market.

So:

- don't click on any suspicious link
- don't interact with shady people
- don't randomly send coins to addresses you don't know about

As always, thanks for sharing some tips to us investors, and newbies as well. For sure, there will be some who will take these advices, and will put it on their minds.

I'll also add one thing which is, there are some scammers where they will tell that you won an X amount of coins from an event and I know that it's pretty obvious, but there are some newbies out there that can easily fall to this way of scamming people because of the fact that they won a huge amount of money just by doing nothing. I mean who doesn't want that.

Aside from that, I guess I'll also add that, random people will not tell you to invest on their project. Legit developers will not tell you to invest on their project randomly. If you receive random DMs from them, just ignore it because 99.99%, they're scammers.

This time of the market is when everyone in the Crypto space should be more vigilant about the crypto offer they join that asks them to connect their ton wallet for mining coins they have mined.

This time around when mining coins are becoming the deal breaker in crypto space, scammers are finding ways to scam people out of it. Some mining of coins has started asking a ton of fees to have your Ton reward upgraded if you want to earn more Ton monthly.

Someone I know fell victim to such a thing. They made a way with about 3 Tons from her because she wanted to upgrade her mining of tons.

So:

- don't click on any suspicious link
- don't interact with shady people
- don't randomly send coins to addresses you don't know about

And that's it. Stay safe.

These are great rules of thumb! Aside from these,
- if it sounds too good to be true, it most probably is. Best to stay away
- always check URLs before transacting
- when someone asks you to give more coins to get/withdraw yours, it's a scam
- when you post a problem on here or other platforms asking for help, be wary of those who send you DMs saying they could help (see up-don't interact with shady people)
- take time to educate and update yourself with the latest news on security, scams, etc.

Scam is what we should always expect coming from time to time, likewise the scammers are also making modifications on the routes they used in operating their scam, we are also expected of getting prepared for them by being aware of their latest module of operations, once all these conditions are meant, we will be able to identify for one when we see it coming because we are aware of it already.

We should always stay vigilant and report anything suspicious going forward and don't fall into the traps ourselves.
It sounds easy, but it's still essential to be responsible and keep your funds and keys in check.

That's going to happen all over again the next time the price goes up like that. Because the scammers want to target all the new people buying crypto and people without enough knowledge about this.

since people are going to be extra desperate to get their money in and get some profit, they are most likely to fall victims to scams since they will not be thinking logically scammers will take advantage of this so no matter what happens, always calm down and don’t let your emotions get the best of you otherwise you will not be able to think objectively

- don't click on any suspicious link
- don't interact with shady people
- don't randomly send coins to addresses you don't know about

these are just some of the general things you should do but we still should always be on the lookout since the more crypto and technology gets developed the more inventive the scams and hacks are going to be

Honestly speaking, the more the continue spread and increasing adoptions of crypto, the more we will experience scammers attacks especially on new investors who has very little or no knowledge about cryptocurrency. The worst disappointing situations is that many of these new investors are not willing to learn or even do some searches before investing.
Again, in as much as many new investors are not eager to learn, then expect more scammers activities on the crypto space regularly, and the reason why scammers had ravaged the crypto economy is because crypto has the capacity to make smart people rich in a short time especially if you invest wisely.
In a nutshell, i think that scams has become part of crypto economy and we can only try our best to be vigilant at all time; avoid clicking any link unnecessary, and avoid dealing with people you don't know very well.

It also should be added that people shouldn't interact with unknown contracts, whatever may be written inside of them.
It should be taken with a considerable amount of salt while receiving such. It leads to no good.

So a while ago in 2021 I'm sure you all remember the spike in investment scams, giveaway scams, hacked-account-promoting-tokens-and-other-shitcoins scams that seemingly exploded out of nowhere when Bitcoin jumped from $20K to $69K.

That's going to happen all over again the next time the price goes up like that. Because the scammers want to target all the new people buying crypto and people without enough knowledge about this.

So:

- don't click on any suspicious link
- don't interact with shady people
- don't randomly send coins to addresses you don't know about

And that's it. Stay safe.

In the aspect of sending coins to a wallet address people really need to be careful most especially newbies. someeone lost some money due to this careless act, he wanted to sell so he copied the wallet address of the person that was supposed to do the exchange for him not knowing that some letters were added so the address was no longer corresponding to the one he copied but he didn't cross check it properly before sending it, he lost everything cause he sent to the wrong address, always make sure you double check before doing any transaction so you don't make silly mistakes like this. You are absolutely right on this scammers would definitely take advantage of the upcoming bull run, that's why as someone who's new to to crypto don't just focus on investing and hodling, take your time to also learn about crypto yourself so you don't end up getting scammed

As more people enter the crypto space scams will increase targeting both newbies and experienced users. Newbies in particular are joining airdrops and looking for opportunities to make quick money. They often participate in airdrops they see on Twitter or receive through Telegram accounts.

For users like these the best advice is to never share your private keys or seed phrases with anyone. Scammers are smart they don’t ask for money but instead go after keys and seed phrases which many newbies don’t realize are the most crucial part of securing their assets.

Even without a bull run, there are scammers everywhere. I remember the first time I bought a meme coin on the TON network. Immediately, I received phishing NFTs in my wallet, claiming I had won $10,000. I was like, "This Polygon spam NFT is everywhere." I've seen many newbies fall into these traps by clicking the link and exposing their wallet details because they want to claim free money.
People should also be careful of spam NFTs as well.

If the bull run or rally for bitcoin hasn't started yet, scammers are rampant all over the world, and scammers mainly use Bitcoin or cryptocurrency just to steal and
scam their victims.

How much more so when the bull run starts here in the crypto market? I expect that the number of victims of scammers and hackers will increase even more in
that season, that's for sure.

Yes, currently there are quite a lot of scammers launching their actions, so as investors we must be careful and always do research before making transactions or investing in tokens or coins. Many scammers offer high profits, but they are all scams, don't believe in things like that.
