No investment advice, but you can contact me on WhatsApp +1 6365877052

Someone made a thread in the altcoin section where he wants to stake but doesn't have enough knowledge about DeFi. A newbie replies to him and invites him to talk through WhatsApp. I don't know what his intention was; it could be good or bad.

This isn't an allegation, actually, but a warning. This way, scammers invite you to talk, and they might motivate you to invest somewhere. They might show fake screenshots or proof to convince you. And some innocent greedy people would fall into the trap and lose everything. So just be careful of such invitations. Rather, it's better to discuss in public places.

You're right sometimes it could be that the person is somehow connected to those creators and this mostly happen in most of this shitcoin that happens to be scam, most times after they finished with the creation they can decide to hire any of this celebrities for hyping and most of this people who are very naive will just decide to dive into investing in that shitcoin just because they saw thier favorite celebrity hyping it, of course we always see this happening countless time.

Usually what they are offering are trading ponzi scams. Which if they convince to make their victim invest on what they have said that can give them return they immediately block them.

That's why its better for us to ignore any message we receive coming from random people saying they are good crypto or forex trader and they are willing to help us to earn since all of that is pure shits and they just want to scam us.
