Question. How do you find out if you are being manipulated or being scammed? Often some things being told by people are not easy to know and understand. And we fell for things and then being taken advantage of. So how do you guard yourself against such things?

Sort:  

If I have time I write the word in a google search + scam. Then I can see what other people have experienced.

I think the video I shared with you about the top scams is kind of a scam.

The problem is when we are scammed we are usually caught off guard. There is not much time to think.

The first technique of scammers is waving a golden ticket.

  • Basically if it is too good to be true then it probably isn't true.

The second technique of scammers is fear (kind of blackmail style).

They will claim that they have something of yours and they will take it away. It's usually not true. They will tell you that you are the one doing illegal activities so you cannot contact the authorities. Yada yada.... you can smell bull shit a mile away.

Well I can't really say how someone can be manipulated or the person being scammed.
The thing is we don't really know how it happens but we can manage to avoid it from happening.

Before someone is scammed that means the person is actually focused on one thing mostly which is money and gain in a short time or period.

So we fall into such because we are actually greedy seeking for quick money, so only of we can get that of our mind and focus we will be able to avoid being scammed.

Well, this seems complicated to me, many times I have no idea and but I react to any suspicion and I really believe that I have not been scammed. Although on second thought when I go to the supermarket I find several guys who wrap you up and you end up carrying merchandise for a price and it really is rubbish.
I know that is absurd but really that is a slight scam.

Scamed again... I needed a taste of my own medicine.

How much coffee do you drink?


Posted via proofofbrain.io

Coffee, just once early morning. I am more of a Tea guy, Indians loves tea. Tea twice a day. What's your favourite drink dear?


Posted via proofofbrain.io

I like that Organic India Tea. It comes in a green package. I drink that every day and nowadays I cary two bottles of water. It is hot... around 37 each day.


Posted via proofofbrain.io

Yeah. It was cold and on the way got hot in the sun.

If online always do your research.

If in "real life" always do your research.

Sadly its the people we trust who might be able to trick us.

this is a good question all of us in this community should contribute, because it will also help us in our day to day activity, what i can say on this for now is that we should avoid greed and covetousness because if you still have greed you will easily be scammed, avoid ponzi

The thing I noticed about people who fall victims of manipulation and scams are they let their greed get the best of them. After realizing this fact, I always guard myself from things or projects that look too good to be true by doing proper due diligence before parting away with my money.


Posted via proofofbrain.io

Their is always sense of reasoning whatever will are doing and that is why it is important that we get adequate information before engaging in any activities with any body.

Thou have not really experience this before and I don't think I will ever go through it,but might approach to that is what I can say now,but I expect that are victim already to help us out,so that we that are yet to have such scenario won't fall for it too
