The irony of being scammed

[0t3p0t]

Hopefully, the scammer will send it back to you mate it's not that easy being scammed sad to say it happened here we are sorry for that. You should be careful next time with transactions but I am actually surprised how easy your funds got stolen through a qr code as I never heard of this kinda modus to be honest because at first I never had an experience yet with my transactions using qr and second I double check everything before transactions will be made.

I'm sorry to say this but I don't think that the scammer will send OP's money back because as far as I know those scammers, they don't care about anyone but themselves. That's why I don't think the scammer will return the money, there's chance that some good fellows might send OP some money as charity but there's no chance that the scammer will send the money back to OP. I feel bad for OP, but in crypto world newbies often get scammed.

Scammers are Egyptians who want profit for themselves and once they get it they will never return it. Therefore, forget if we have ever been cheated and never expect it back. It is better to use it as an experience so that in the future we can be more careful in investing in crypto. because we will always meet scammers.

Dear All,

First of all, thank you for the support. I reached out with no intention to get money back but I felt I needed to share my experience for others to be more aware and not to evoke negative feelings about it. And I might needed to hear some words of encouragement, so I am grateful I received it in this community.

Secondly, I don't expect the scammers will send money back even partially, nor I feel I am in position to ask for charity. Those are your money well earned and you don't have to share them with others just because someone was unfortunate.

However, I would appreciate options on making assets together, benefiting from each others talents.
Like my general economics, macroeconomics knowledge and midformat film camera photoshooting

I firmly believe this community is not about scammers and my short experience is totally positive besides the very start of it.

Unfortunately, no response on the scammer from the Administration of the forum.

Too sad.

One can say that the crypto area is full of scam but it is also the society of trust and collaboration.
From what I witnessed, the newlt established institutions, like social forums, keep their eyes closed on obvious and proven scams and do nothing to clear the area.

This kind of society is non-sustainable, prove me wrong

Crypto as part of international economic relation course, would be interesting. Is this like how crypto being used in international trade?

There're several points. Crypto as an asset
Crypto and smart contracts as a way to stabilize monetary systems, how that will influence interest rate hedging
Cross border transactions and currency controls
International virtual labour migration (international employment without leaving domestic country and avoiding payment fees)

It can be a solid topic. Not to mention Black markets, money laundering, that comprise 5% of global economy

That would be an interesting data to see. I think most of us here working for crypto company are part of this 5% which could be bigger in the future seeing that crypto is going to be adopted everywhere.

It will be something of a proof that adoption is massively going when these data is publicised excluding that 5% from illicit transactions.

It is really sad that you have already been lossed of big funds. Crypto has a high population of scammers so you should always be careful where and to whom you are transacting money. Since there are members from almost all countries so it will be difficult to protest against the scammer. Moreover, you are trading your own funds, so if there is fraud then the members of this forum are not responsible because you have traded money without any reference. So if the scammer doesn't return the funds then there is nothing we can do. But we always warn everyone so that no one gets scammed.

I literally showed proofs of the scam from the member of the forum and there were absolutely no actions from the administration.
I am not expecting that the funds will return, but the scammer is still present and is the source of the future scams right here.

So if the hygene is not an issue, that threatens the reputation of the forum in general

The rules of all forums are not the same so from this forum you will not get any option from which the scammer account will be red tagged. For example if someone scams in btt forum and if it is proved then that account is given red tag. So that no one else can easily trust that account and transactions any funds with it. However, the matter should be brought up to the admin community so that everyone can recognize scammer accounts where such tactics are adopted.

As I've returned to this area and made my presence on forums like this I became a victim of the scam. Unfortunately here, on this forum.
I've always been extremely cautious but fell a victim of trust to AltCoinsTalks name. I fell short of 1 ETH
Apparently all I had on my MetaMask wallet.

sorry for your horrible experience here on the forum but it is true that no matter where there will always be ill intentioned people even in a forum where a lot of genuine investors or traders lurk there will be those that are just lurking around to scam someone so it does not really just depend on the place of where you are but how careful you are

needless to say we need to be careful everywhere at all times and just because we have been around for quite a while and know plenty does not mean we are immune to such frauds this is why it is helpful if we once in a while still refresh our knowledge regarding new ways of scams and other methods of fraud just to protect ourselves

It is one thing unavoidable in cryptocurrency industry and I must say where there is money then there is every possibility for scammer to lurk around their, but the right thing to do is always rinse our brain and mindsets with the new systems and methods scammers do use to attack or even uses to scam people around the forum. Security should be our ultimate priority on the forum and any place around the internet because we can get scam at anytime through phishing link, fake token, fake investment offer, or through helping them to get their assets from their wallet which may happened to be multi sig wallet.

The crypto industry since from the very beginning of its existence has had become like the paradise of scammers and fraudsters and they are coming from all parts of the world taking advantage of the reach power of the internet and cryptocurrency to victimize people. This is the bad side of our industry. of course, the other side is that we are also the industry of opportunities which got a global reach influencing millions of people everyday. Now, in regards to this forum, I am looking forward for a policy that can be clear, solid and acceptable on matters of scams and frauds so we can somehow clean the forum from this evil and not allow anyone to be victimized again.

It is extremely ironic how I got here.

About me, I am a teacher of International Economics and I constantly update my program. Right now I am willing to build a crypto part on international economic relations course.

I've been researching the crypto movement since 2017 and even had a couple of analytical tools built back in the day.

Can I know how you were scammed here in the crypto space op? I'm just curious, but since 2017 you've known this right? How about the research you did during those times and up until now? Since the times of 2017 until now, the victim of scam here in the crypto space has not disappeared.

The scammers are still going on, so I asked how you were scammed op, so that other members here will be aware of the story you're telling at least somehow. Then most of the crypto community is also careful of those who know and are aware of scammers.

Sure, it's in this topic, I've written it from the start.

Again, I stress as much as I can

I do realize I won't get my funds back. I am triggered by the lack of response from the admins of the forum, that the scammer is still here and no one cares.

So, scam is tolerated. Be it
