How to distinguish an online conman from a real professional
In 2016-17 there was a boom in the info business, and this field grew so fast and unregulated that it opened the door for many scammers. And, unfortunately, many newcomers are caught by them and lose money.
After all, scammers are not limited to the truth and can draw the sweetest pictures in the head of their potential victims.
And what industry attracts these online conmen the most? Of course, our favorite crypto. It is so attractive because it has the following properties:
• No punishment for fraud
• The ability to promise endless profits
• The unawareness of the masses about its nature
Last year, crypto enthusiasts lost more than $14 billion to fraudulent schemes. This is more than the annual budget of Serbia 🇷🇸, Nigeria 🇳🇬, and 3 times more than Georgia 🇬🇪.
So that you don't lose your hard-earned money, I have prepared for you a simple list of how to distinguish a pseudo-expert from a real pro:
The presence of real statistics. And not for one month, but at least six months. When giga traders sell you a VIP pass to a super-mega-secret group and show you how they made fifty X's by longing doge, ask for real statistics with all trades, or let them return under the rock from which they crawled out.
Talks not only about the victories, but also about his defeats, analyzing mistakes and showing opportunities for growth. Don’t confuse it with a heartbreaking story to get attention.
Never saying something will happen with 100% probability. No one is Nostradamus, and if your favorite expert is yelling about having a crystal ball and going to Mount Sinai at night to ask God if the bitcoin will grow, then I have bad news for you.
Not showing off. For a successful pro, earning thousands of dollars in trading is the norm, he's used to it. He does not need to prove to everyone that he is worth something, showing his park with Lamborghini, he knows himself that he is cool.
Having a huge number of real reviews. He doesn't hide the bad ones and communicate with his dissatisfied audience, because he knows that the truth is on his side and he is responsible for his actions.
