I just came over from the 'Investor Games' subforum (hope I got that right). A guy there said he came across a site asking to double his bitcoin, he paid in $20 and got $40 the following day or so. He then went for a higher plan of $300 hoping to cash out $600 but they asked him to pay in another $300 before cashing out. He got confused and was asking for advice.

I think I've been there before. Before I became a forum member. I once came across one of those scam sites promising to generate bitcoins. Thought it was real, but when they asked me to pay some transaction fee, I was stuck. I had no money to pay the fee. With the benefit of hindsight, I know I'd have sent them the 'transaction fee' had I had the coins to send them.

Now, what have been your experience with internet scams?
How do we help people not to get scammed?

For now I never experience to be scammed and I hope this is not happening to me because all my effort was useless if they caught my earnings.
Yes I do experienced being scammed and it was a trending digital fraud that I've known so far but Somehow I didn't experience being scammed here in virtual currency or simply using bitcoin unlike on my past experience on dealing on online businesses that can ve found in internet and any other social media's.
