there are even "false advertising" that people fall for, especially when it comes to centralized exchanges,
"bybit" for instance made Ads about how you can just register and earn 5050$, when in reality, getting that 5050$ "Bonus" comes with thousands of terms and conditions, and the fact that you need to stake large amounts of money into this and that coin they have listed, trade on their exchange roughly for 25K+ to get that 5050$, who wins in the end? whether you have money to trade or not, it's always the centralized exchange since they're hoarding your information and selling it to 3rd parties. millions of people registered, on average it's 0.15 cents per person, let's say 10 cents for the sake of the argument, times a million souls, that's a 100,000$ right there.
These are very good examples In fact , when I was a newbie, I only fell for scams on two sites , but due to my ignorance, I didn't know about the forum I didn't lose much, but I did lose Money , Which I know is always Necessary It's a clear example that we can't be so big believers in Internet Things.
