One of the best way to avoid scams and fraud in the cryptocurrency game is to gain adequate knowledge about cryptocurriencies. Many people do not know anything about cryptocurrencies but they are interested in it and so they give their money to scammers to trade for them.

It is very important for you to trade with someone who you know or someone who you trust very well. Also, it is good to be sure of a token before investing in it

By doing due diligence.


I'm always surprised when some people choose to invest in a particular coin based on word of mouth. As there ever been anyone who said bad things about a product he/she wants to sell, even when the person knows that product is awful? No way.


Making detailed research before investing will save one lots of headache.

You cannot invest in new cryptos, except that you have to be careful. Be cautious of any cryptos programs you wanted to join. Don't join any programs that look like high yield investments programs. Hyip programs are scams. There are still some genuine crypto programs online.

Rugpull is one of the easiest way cryptocurrency scams are carried out because a lot of people are going to be deceived into investing in a particular coin because it has a potential of increasing in worth but which all of a sudden is going to dump like a very worthless coin. So you just have to invest in the coins that you know that are reliable and popular.

A lot of people run after new coins and tokens without knowing fully about it and thus get scammed. One of the easiest ways to avoid getting scammed is by investing only in the top performing coins and the coins that have existed for a long time. Check top 10 or top 20 coins by market cap and try to invest in these coins.

For me, the main principle in cryptogames is that the project must be supported by large companies and famous people, because in this case they risk their reputation, so they will not support a scam project, although this strategy does not work 100 percent, because for some, money is more important than reputation
