Scammers are always lurking when you least expect them, they disarm you and let you put your guard down then they pounce. They[scammers] attempt to find your weak spot to take advantage of it, usually many people's weak spots are "easy and quick money", as much as we would often like that phrase to be true, the only truth that no one will never tell you is that there is no such thing as easy and quick money also if someone tells you that it would probably be because they want to steal from you or they stand to profit and hence it is a red flag. Once scammers know that you have a lot of debts and you are looking for a quick buck, that is where they have you exactly where they want you.

  • How to spot scammers

There is a certain saying in crypto that goes "Don't trust,verify". This means that whenever people come up with offers for you to make a quick buck, you should only take a few minutes of your time to research and familiarise yourself with that offer and the company behind it and whether it is registered or not. Take the information you find from your research and match it with the information from the potential scammer, you will find that 90% of the time the information will not match or that specific company does not exist. Taking a few seconds to look up an offer or company on the internet could save you from losing your life savings forever therefore you have to accumulate as much information as you can before investing.

If the offer is too good to be true then it probably is. Most of your time your guard will never let you down, the only problem is ignoring it and not following up on it because of greed. Tell yourself that it is okay to miss out on an opportunity because the truth when one door closes, the other opens up for you so there will always be another big and better opportunity on the horizon, you just have to be patient and you will have yourself to thank otherwise if you jump on an opportunity with both your eyes closed, you will have yourself to blame because that is ticket to get REKT.
