Anything ranging from 20-100k, that was made post-2018, is consisted of fake, accounts pulled from other groups and other highly manipulative practices. These types of crypto groups you should always avoid.
Excellent point. Everything can be faked, exaggerated, just like facebook and twitter followers which often happens with bounty hunters when they have to meet a minimum # of followers in order to join. You know damn well all those followers aren't real people, and the same thing is true for any telegram group with many thousands of members if it's for some ico or shit coin.
This is an important warning for newbies, op and I have no doubt a lot of them fall for projects that *look* good, and most of them do, even if they're scams. Those scammers know what they're doing and know they have to keep up appearances if they expect to draw in investors.
Even better advice would be to just avoid the ico space altogether. How many scams do we have to see before investors and bounty hunters stop falling for the same old tricks?
