The market has been fluctuating recently, with the pie fluctuating by hundreds of points every day, and Ethereum only fluctuating by dozens of points. The market is a little boring. At this time, those scammers come out and come out to deceive under various banners! As a currency speculator, we can lose money and we can be harvested by bookmakers, but we cannot be cheated! You can cut me, but lie to me! I can’t swallow this breath. Today Lao Shuteng will reveal some common scams in the currency circle! Return a piece of pure land to the currency circle!

Scam 1: Recommending small exchanges and small platforms.

A certain teacher leads orders, and earns millions a day on a certain platform, with a 100% winning rate. You can often see scammers with this kind of gimmick, guiding you to register for a small exchange, usually giving you a little sweetener first, and helping you make money. , I will take you to high-density contracts later to liquidate your positions. In other words, you can add coins, but you can't withdraw cash. It's just a pig-killing game.

Personal advice: If you want to play with coins, you still have to choose a large exchange. Currently, OKX, Binance, Huobi, and Sesame are all OK. Other exchanges are not recommended unless you have a lot of money!

Scam 2: Mobile phone mining, stable static income.

This kind of promotion is usually promoted by the ground, and it is also a common advertisement in the group. Generally, they promise that you will get a certain amount back every day if you invest a certain amount, and then ask you to recruit people, and you will earn a certain amount if you recruit a certain amount of people. (Some just make a dapp, and your assets will not be frozen or transferred at any time on the chain.) The previous Kia mining machine and BZZ mining machine have harvested a lot of money. Mining is now severely suppressed, and the overall market of the currency circle is not prosperous enough, so think twice before buying a mining machine!

Personal advice: Now is not a good time to buy mining machines. It is recommended to watch more and do less!

Scam three: Airdropping coins into wallets to obtain authorization.

This is usually caused by scammers who first buy a lot of resources and then send a group message with one click, airdropping a lot of worthless coins to you and asking you to authorize. Once authorized, your wallet will no longer be safe, and your account password will be known to others, who can transfer your tokens at any time. This is a common routine.

Another thing that the wallet needs to pay attention to is that if you have done cross-chain or authorization, remember to cancel the authorization after the transaction to avoid problems later. (Before, the handsome guy authorized some coins, and after a few months, the coins in the wallet were swept away, which was also a waste of money.)

My personal advice: Don’t authorize at will, don’t believe in pie in the sky, try to use one wallet for one project, and keep larger amounts of U in an exchange or cold wallet. You still have to be aware of prevention.

Scam 4: Private placement scam in the primary market.

Private placement scams, many small communities, or those with only a few groups, sell the quotas of various top-level projects at low prices online, such as the recently popular aptos sui and a series of high-quality primary market projects. They don’t have the quotas themselves, send empty vehicles, or the channels are unreliable, etc. A series of reasons lead to not being able to get the coins, or having to wait a long time to get them.

My personal suggestion: The primary market private placement market is definitely very good, and there are many coins that can increase tenfold or even a hundredfold, but you have to be careful when choosing a track, currency, or investment community or institution. First of all, you have to consider the strength of the community itself. The currency circle is all about strength, so don't be blinded by interests.

Scam 5: Exchange fuel card for U, also known as 15% off fuel card

This is more common in Telegram groups. The common method is to privately chat with you and say that there are a batch of oil cards that need to be sold at a low price. In the early stage, you are usually asked to exchange for 100 U. Small amounts can be traded, and the oil cards are real oil cards. Later, when the quantity is large, both the oil cards and U are sold.

My personal advice: just take a detour when you see the gas card. Don’t worry, the pie in the sky won’t fall on you. You just aren’t that lucky.

Scam 6: Privately add friends in WeChat groups and guide you to invest

This is very common in various WeChat groups. They usually package themselves as professional teachers, or fans who make money by following a certain teacher. Through the packaging of the circle of friends and gorgeous language, they lure you step by step and ask you to play with them. There are usually more avatars of beautiful women and mature uncles.

Personal advice: ignore anyone who adds you in the community group. If he is awesome, he will not join our community group. The big guys are not so empty. If there is any situation or if you feel something is wrong, ask the management. The management will give you guidance as soon as possible! (Those who add you privately should be treated as scammers.) Either they are thinking about your money, or they are coveting your beauty.

Scam 7: Fake exchange, fake wallet

This is more common on Telegram or Twitter. They are some fake TP or exchange wallets. They give you a fake link and ask you to download and register. They usually use high rebate fees as bait to induce you to download and register their fake APP, thereby committing fraud.

Personal advice: download exchanges or wallets through official channels, and don’t trust links sent in groups.

Scam 8: Scammers pretend to be customer service of the exchange and call or send you text messages

After the scammer obtains your personal information through purchase, he will contact you using an overseas phone number and tell you that there is a problem with your account and that you need to "transfer" your cryptocurrency assets (actually, he just wants you to transfer the money to him). This scam is not that sophisticated, but because the scammer has almost all of your transaction information, it is easy for you to let your guard down and get cheated.

The scammers said they were staff members of a certain platform right away, and could immediately tell your name and accurately tell how many U you purchased at a certain time. Some friends were fooled by this. First of all, you should know that the exchange will not contact you actively under normal circumstances, so don't believe those who say they are staff members of a certain platform. The official website usually has a certification phone number. If you encounter this situation, you can verify it first to avoid being fooled by scammers.

Personal advice: If you encounter such a call, just hang up. The exchange staff will not contact you proactively. If you are in ok, or Binance encounters recharge failures, recharges to the wrong chain, or other problems, you can contact Lao Shu Teng. There are people at Lao Shu Teng.

Summary: I wonder if you have noticed that almost all scams take advantage of human weaknesses, so they can always successfully deceive some people. In fact, as long as we are not greedy and don't have so much luck, then no one in this world can deceive us.
