The most terrifying thing in the cryptocurrency world is not the market crash, but those ubiquitous 'signal teachers' and 'friends' investments'! Recently, a fan told me that he paid 20,000 in tuition to attend a class by a 'signal teacher' and invested 100,000 following their advice. As a result, the teacher ran away with the money, and now he is left with a broken family. I checked, and in the first half of this year, the amount lost due to signal trading and investment scams has already exceeded 2.5 billion dollars! Today, I will expose the four deadly tricks of these two scams. If you have such people around you, quickly stay away!
Some may say, 'I would never believe in signal teachers!' But the scammers' tactics have already upgraded; they are no longer simply calling out signals but packaging themselves as 'senior analysts' or 'big shots in the cryptocurrency world', using fake profit screenshots and grandiose words to deceive you. Even more terrifying is 'friends' investments', which exploit your trust to take your money away.
The first trick: paid courses promising 'precise bottom fishing'. Scammers promote 'paid courses' in WeChat groups and Douyin, claiming 'Spend 20,000 on tuition, and I will help you earn 100,000'. The course content is all trash copied from the internet, and the so-called 'precise bottom fishing signals' are all randomly fabricated. I have seen something even more ridiculous; a teacher told students to buy at 120,000 for Bitcoin, and as a result, Bitcoin plummeted to 80,000, leaving students buried. Avoiding pitfalls: Any paid trading signals or paid courses are scams! Real investment skills are not sold for money; they have already been secretly profiting.
The second trick: fake profit screenshots to create the illusion of a 'big shot'. Scammers use Photoshop to create fake profit screenshots, claiming 'I made 500,000 last month' and 'Follow me, and you'll double your money'. They also arrange many fake accounts in groups to post their 'profit screenshots', making you think 'everyone is making money, except for me'. Avoiding pitfalls: Do not trust any profit screenshots! These screenshots are easily forged; you can ask them to live stream their operations, and if they are afraid to do so, they are scammers.
The third trick: trusted individuals for entrusted investments, using trust to harvest leeks. This is the most terrifying trick; many people hand over money to relatives or friends because they trust them. As a result, these 'trusted individuals' are either scammed themselves or directly run away with the money. I have a fan who entrusted 1 million to his childhood friend, and the friend took the money to gamble, ending up deep in debt. Avoiding pitfalls: Do not trust any entrusted investments! Even if it's your own parents, do not hand over your money to anyone for investment! Investment is a personal matter, and you must control your own money.
The fourth trick: 'insider information' to let you 'layout in advance'. Scammers say, 'I have insider information; this coin is about to go on a major exchange, buy now and you can double your money'. This so-called 'insider information' is fake; major exchanges have strict listing rules and will not leak information in advance. I have seen a project where scammers said 'it will go on a major exchange', and as a result, many people bought in, and the project team directly ran away. Avoiding pitfalls: Stay away from any 'insider information' or 'insider trading'; they are all scams!
Next, I will teach you four tricks to avoid scams: First, do not trust copy trading or entrusted investments. Remember this: there are no saviors in the crypto world, only leeks and sickles. Second, do not pay any fees. Anyone asking you for money is a scammer. Third, learn on your own and take control. Investment requires personal research; you cannot rely on others. Fourth, invest small amounts to diversify risks. Even if you think this project is very reliable, do not invest all your money in it.
My opinion is: trading teachers and trusted individuals for investments are the tumors of the crypto world! They exploit your greed and trust to take your money and ruin your life. In the crypto world, you can only make money by relying on yourself; any investment that depends on others will ultimately fail.
Finally, a heartfelt word: If you have already paid tuition or participated in entrusted investments, stop the loss quickly! Follow me @链上标哥 so you don’t get lost!
