So a few hours ago, an associate of mine received the following message on her telegram.

note, the below link is a scam and should not be clocked or followed

Without a second though, she knew and I knew it was nothing but a scam.

It however surprised me that some people had already fallen for it.

Its kind of timed properly to be honest. Facebook has recently been more bold about its cryptocurrency plans and with s lot of newbies in crypto still on facebook, this group targets crypto newbies in order to scam them of their hard earned money.

There are two sets of people who generally fall for these types of scams, the greedy ones who don't listen to reason from an experienced crypto trader and infact goes behind their backs to facilitate the trade, and the truly fresh newbie who has no idea what is going on.

A few people approached my associates on this facebook coin scam, and they were rightly told to stay far away from it, while others still went ahead to acquire and I quote "facebook crypto that will bring riches"

Perhaps this word from a member of our group sums it up nicely for those who are greedy.

Brainland: The best way to let people to stop loosing money is to watch em loose money cos when you try to correct people many times, you end up making em look more stupider.

Funniest thing is that at the end, they end up labelling the real ones a scam and they increase their level of ignorance.
