I think the main problem here is, that many "investors" do not even know the simplest things about Cryptocurrencies and their technologies. Those investors mainly invested because they heard they will get rich quick. And those are the people falling for those scams and fake accounts. Never invest because some one told you so, do your own homework!

As we are crypto investors, we should know all about cryptocurrency and its securities

Beware it's a fake @steemero account... jk. Fake account, fake coins, fake status, fake market, fake prediction, the world is full of fake. People are fake too, fake smile, fake identity etc...

lol. well said. Cheers!!
