Cryptocurrency scam has been in existence for a long time. The pandemic may not increase it . The most important thing we have to do is to try and avoid any situation that could possibly make us fall for this.
Whether the pandemic or not people will continue to be scammed in the cryptocurrency space. Even last year there are a lot of cryptocurrency scam that actually costed people a lot of money.
The pandemic is going to result in a lot of scams because a lot of people are going to be relieved of their jobs and everything that they can be able to make it easily online.
There is already a lot of misinformation that is in the market since the pandemic has come so I'm not going to be surprised if people are going to bring out schemes with the hope of defrauding people.
