The is just put out as a warning for people to be vigilant , there are scammers out there and they will rip you off , I receive a lot of these and will post as I receive them , I have seen many people scammed, ripped off and hurt since being involved with cryptos since 2010 and if this helps just 1 person from getting ripped off or scammed then the post was worth my time ..

Be nice and peace out peeps!!

Good write up @shawn-brewer . I wonder why content like this doesn't get more activity?

Thank you and yes , im not looking at making money with this post , i just hate seeing people get scammed out , if i make a coin or 2 thats kool but more to help especially new people that aren't overly aware of these scams

One thing I am seeing constantly are crappy impersonizations on slack, irc and so on. If someone PMs you offering you some trade where you send them Bitcoin and you get some discount or deal, it is almost always a scam. Only trade crypto on exchanges or in person with people you trust, never trust some stranger, and if you think something is too good to be true, it just might be.

yep agree 100% , theres too much of it scamming mate , and just trying to do my little bit to help people !!
