Crypto scams are similar to other types of financial scams, except that the scammers are seeking your crypto assets rather than your money.

  1. Investment Scam

Scams involving investment entail a bad actor luring consumers to transmit their bitcoin or any crypto assets to the fraudster with promises of “great gains.”

Scammers might pose as a variety of people, including a “investment manager,” a celebrity, or even a love interest on an online dating service. Whatever function they play, they offer to grow your investment if you transfer it to them. Look for promises of extreme rewards or zero risks to discover an investment scheme. These are known as socially constructed scams.

 2. Phishing Scam

Scammers have long used phishing scams to their advantage. Fraudsters want to gain access to your account information, including your crypto keys. As any crypto user is aware, whoever holds the key controls all of the crypto. Phishing criminals frequently trick you into clicking on a link to a bogus website, where they can steal your account information.
