I have participated in about 30 projects in cryptocurrencies I believe and if 27 of those were scams man I would be in for a death ride to put it mildly. Thank godness I have only encountered 1 or 2 scams along the way and as you do get scammed you learn about what to look out for and vow to never let it happen again. In any event the scammers will get what they deserve karma will make sure of this
