The scamming business is increasing but it existed since the very first years of bitcoin life, I have been scammed one time untill now and I hope that it will be enough for life.

You're not really a fully-fledged member of the bitcoin community unless you've been scammed at least once.
SOOO True... I was scammed out of 1/2 BTC when I first started with it through a fake (real looking) wallet "service." I got serviced, to be quite sure.
I lost I lost $400 worth of BTC by fluctuating prices on some stupid Sephora gift cards for my beloved cousin. DERP!
etc....
Careful! I'm super grateful for bitcointalk.org so I can gain some experience with this before getting kicked in the bollocks.... meant wallet... again!
Cheers, mates!
