I have been thinking about how I've been reading a lot of topics from scammers who give themselves away easily by saying they recover bitcoins and I've been wondering how are these scammers finding about Bitcointalk when some regular people have not yet discovered this forum on their own.
if they are a scammer and know Bitcoin, it'll be most likely a matter of time before they hear about bitcointalk so I am not really surprised when a scammer stumbles on this forum.
Avoid referring the forum to friends and even family who we know have tendencies to become scammers, have affiliations with any known scammer, etc.
I don't think I can do this, if they ask me where can they find information about Bitcoin I'd probably recommend bitcointalk to them.
Most of them are probably old scammers who have been busted, and they just create new accounts.
yeah, you are probably right about this.
