Especially in crypto, scammers and criminals are crossing our ways frequently, causing losses and damage to victims.

Unfortunately, scammers and criminals are abusing privacy to hide behind, to be protected from getting exposed and caught.
As a result, it’s happening sometimes for privacy to be tied to scammers and criminals, what’s very sad because privacy is also crucial to protect us against scammers and criminals.

Here, we can start to act and try to bust any scammer and criminal. We can do our part to help that privacy doesn't get abused by fraudulent actors.

If all fraudulent actors cannot be sure to still get exposed despite abusing to hide behind privacy, and all criminal activities will be exposed and get held accountable for fraud, we will see much less fraud. In conclusion, our goal should be to expose criminal people and not allow criminal actors to hide behind privacy.

We can start right here in Bitcointalk, to expose scammers or malicious distributors of malware.
Bitcointalk has an own section, where scam gets exposed, called Scam Accusations. Many members are putting in a lot of effort to bust scammers.
Lafu has started his own initiative to expose malware distributors and he’s vocal to warn about such malicious actors.
Forum members can try to support Lafu and his campaign any time to expose malware distribution.
Privately, we can expose scams and fraud on social media as well and we can make aware about it.

Let's fight scammers and criminals and don't let them hide behind privacy!
Privacy is too valuable to get abused by fraudulent actors!


PrivacyOui

The forum is one major place scammers can easily get exposed, because for every information you drop here about any new project, the community members are going take time to scrutinize the authenticity of that information you're putting out, so people won't fall victim.
Yes no doubt about the fact that scammers would want to hide behind privacy perpetuate evil, that is their Modus operandi, however genuine people are still going miles ahead to unravel their evil plan. But one major thing that make scammers succeed their victims is greed from the victims side, because these scammers will bring stories that are too good to be true, instead of you to do your own verification, or just tell the scammer straight up that i cannot believe you, because your story is too enticing and I'm find it hard to believe, then stop them from further conversation, you will the victim elongating the conversation and supposedly give vital information to the scammer.
