Welcome to Laoshu Teng Shuo Coin:
The recent market has been fluctuating back and forth, with Bitcoin fluctuating by hundreds of points every day and Ethereum only by dozens of points. The market is a bit boring, and at this time those scammers come out, using various banners to swindle people! As a cryptocurrency trader, we can lose money, we can be harvested by the dealer, but we cannot be cheated! You can harvest me, but you can’t cheat me! I just can’t swallow this breath. Today, Lao Shuteng will reveal several common scams in the cryptocurrency circle! Give the cryptocurrency circle a pure land!
Scam 1: Recommend 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 suggestion: You still have to choose a big exchange to play with coins. Currently, OKX, Binance, Huobi and Sesame are all available. Other exchanges are not recommended unless you have a lot of money!
Scam 2: Mobile mining, stable static income.
This kind of advertisement is generally promoted and is also common in the group. It usually promises that you will get back as much as you invest every day, and then tells you to attract as many people as you want and earn as much as you want. (Some just make a dapp and do not freeze or transfer your assets on the chain at any time) The previous Kia mining machine and BZZ mining machine have all been severely harvested. Mining is now severely suppressed, and the overall currency market is not prosperous enough, so you should think twice before buying a mining machine now!
Personal suggestion: Now is not a good time to buy a mining machine. It is recommended to watch more and move less!
Scam three: Airdropping coins into wallets to obtain authorization.
This is usually done by scammers who first buy a lot of resources and then send them in bulk with one click, airdropping a lot of worthless coins to you and asking you to authorize them. Once authorized, your wallet will not be safe and your account and password will be lost to others. You all know that you can transfer your tokens at any time. This is a relatively common trick.
Another thing you need to pay attention to with the wallet is that if you have done cross-chain or authorization, remember to cancel the authorization after the transaction to avoid problems later. (Previously, the handsome guy authorized some coins. After a few months, the coins in the wallet The whole family was swept away and lost in vain,)
Personal suggestion: 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 in exchanges or cold wallets. You still have to be aware of precautions.
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.
Personal suggestion: The primary market private equity market is definitely very good, and there are many ten-fold coins and hundred-fold coins in it, but you have to keep your eyes peeled when you choose the track, currency, or community and institution you want to invest in. First of all, you must consider the strength of this community. Strength speaks in the currency circle, so don’t be dazzled by interests.
Scam 5: Exchange fuel card for U, also known as 15% off fuel card
This is usually more common in Telegram groups. The common method is to chat with you privately and say that there are a batch of gas cards that need to be sold at a low price. In the early stage, they usually ask you to exchange them for 100 U. The transaction can be done for small amounts, and the gas cards are also real. The fuel card, when the amount becomes larger later, the fuel card and U will be empty.
Personal suggestion: Just take a detour when you see the gas card. You can’t rest assured that pie in the sky will not hit you. Your luck is not that good.
Scam 6: Privately add friends to WeChat groups to 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 suggestion: Ignore anyone who adds you in the community group. If he is awesome, he is awesome. You won’t join our community group, big shots don’t have that much space. If you have any situation or feel something is wrong, please ask the management, and the management will give you guidance as soon as possible! (Anyone who adds you privately will be treated as a scammer.) Either they are thinking about your money, or they are coveting your beauty.
Scam 7: Fake exchanges and fake wallets
This is more common in Telegram or Twitter. It is some fake TP or exchange wallet. It gives you a fake link to download and register. It usually uses high commission fees as bait to induce you to download. Register his fake APP to achieve fraud.
Personal suggestion: Download the exchange or wallet through official channels, and don’t trust the links posted in the group.
Scam 8: Scammers pretend to be exchange customer service and call you and 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 you need to "transfer" currency assets (actually asking you to transfer the money to him). This scam is actually not very clever. But because scammers have almost all of your transaction information, it’s easy for you to relax your vigilance and get scammed.
As soon as the scammer came up, he said that he was a staff member of a certain platform and could tell you your name immediately and accurately tell how many u you purchased at a certain time. Some friends were fooled by this. First of all, everyone needs to know that exchanges generally do not contact you proactively, so do not believe those calls that say you are from a certain platform. The official website usually also has a certification phone number. If you encounter this situation, you can verify it first to avoid being deceived by scammers.
Personal suggestion: just hang up if you encounter this kind of phone call. The staff of the exchange will not contact you proactively. If you are on OK, or Binance encounters recharge failure, wrong recharge chain, or other problems, you can call us. Contact Laoshu Teng, there is someone on Laoshu 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.
