Forewarned is forearmed.
I also wonder how to increase your chances of earning cryptocurrency and without losing your funds?

[*]Who forces you to let them gamble your funds in exchange of profit
[*]Phishing links where they promise too much goodness( Example: go here to gain 1 btc for free due a glitch in the system)
[*]People that threats you via email for btc, telling you they will hack the shift out of you if you don't pay x amount.
[*]Who call themselves with a nick of somebody well known and ask you for btc favours
[*]Loans without a backup in countervalue it's strictly to avoid.
There is always a need for users to be more vigilant in all their online transactions. As what i've read in a recent article, as crypto and ICO industry rise, so the tricks of the scammers are continuously evolving as well. Be extra discerning to know what is true and fake.
I think one of the promising projects I can recommend is MyShield. Has anyone heard of it? This is one that focuses on the fight against online scams which I think is very relevant for all crypto users. As we are discussing about different types of scams and fraud, I think it's high time users prioritize the need for greater and improved online presence. Many are wary now in making their next crypto investment simply because of fear of being scammed. This project is a good one to look at. Here's an interesting read about it: https://www.forbes.com/sites/montymunfo ... 861f2c23b7Iamabright wrote: ↑July 8th, 2018, 10:14 pmThere is always a need for users to be more vigilant in all their online transactions.

Yeah I've heard about MyShield. A friend's been posting about it, think she's with the bounty program of it. It kinda interest me, as it mentioned about combining AI and crowd wisdom to fight scams? I think it's a big technology. Thanks for the article you shared. Got good insights. Is there any link to check more details about this anti fraud platform?AppleJ0000 wrote: ↑July 8th, 2018, 10:23 pm
