Every one of us has contact with people. For example, in the crypto branch, it is often a financial question in the crypto branch. I have an extensive experience in the poker staking industry, where you need to invest money in unknown players. And you have to be ready for all templates of behaviours of applicants. I am using this skill in the crypto sphere too.

Every day we could be scammed, and we must be ready.

It is my list of signals, which you can interpret from: "here is something strange" to "it is the scam!".

Lose funds without malicious intent.

1. If you already have a financial relationship with someone and a person tends to skip reporting or disappear - this is an alarming sign. The absence of malicious intent characterizes this case; everything happens by itself. Person finds reasons not to fulfil obligations. As a rule, it is a severe obstacle for him, like family issues, health problems, etc. You must catch these changes in time and stop cooperation if possible.

2. It often happens that people spend more than they earn. If a person borrows from you monthly and the debt increases, this is a clear sign that the "pyramid" will collapse soon. From what income will he return the money? Ask yourself this question every time before you send your "investment".

3. Misunderstanding. Sometimes it happens—no clear conditionals at start of cooperation. Watch the wording, do not leave two readings. In the future, this may lead to losses. Today you understand each other one hundred per cent, and in a year, you are enemies - this, unfortunately, happens more often than we would like.

Fraud.

1. The scammer is constantly rushing you. As for me, this is the main criterion you need to pay attention to. Perfect conditions for you, a lot of redundant information to distract you and all this in a hurry. Do you see a situation like this? Press pause and analyze what is happening again. It is a critical moment.

2. The scammers are trying to evoke pity for themselves. "My mother is sick", "I am being evicted from the apartment." And all this in a hurry - it looks very suspicious.

3. Fraudsters can insult and threaten. Sometimes, when the scammer sees that the conversation is getting out of his control, he begins to talk threats and insults. At this point, everything becomes clear to you.

Pay attention to the whole situation. Detect oddities and inconsistencies in your opponent's behaviour. Pay attention to excellent terms of the deal - this is a signal. If possible, look for information about the business partner in open sources (OSINT).

Attentiveness, analysis, common sense and technical savvy will give you good chances not only to not be deceived but in general it is better to understand people, making it beneficial not only for yourself but also for your partner.

Be careful. See you!
