Things like that make the image of bitcoin worse which affects the movement of bitcoin because of the negative impact for those who already believe in bitcoin become less trusting again, and besides it makes people hesitate to get involved with bitcoin.
and the development of bitcoin is growing fast and more trials will be faced, and the saying goes that the taller the tree, the stronger the wind will hit.
It is actually not when the bitcoin has already established a strong foundation to the market. Why? Because we can directly compare bitcoin to the fiats that we have. Where if people experience a scam or frauds, they do not blame the systems, but the people who uses it. That same concept should be applied to bitcoin as well so the reputation of bitcoin will not be affected. In order to stop this, we should all be well knowledgeable to the security measures to avoid having a negative experience with bitcoin.
Nobody will he scam if a person won't allow it to happen, prevention is better than fixing something that has been happening. However, dealing on a situation that could bring you more prone to scam must be avoided. If you're aware on things around you, I don't think you'll be able to compromise all things that put your bitcoin funds to danger especially to new users.
