I have decided to write about some of the ways by which you can identify a scammer when it comes to crypto currency exchange. Below are some of the ways of identifying them, read through thoroughly.

1. A scammer don't usually write details such as number etc about themselves in their profile.

2. They usually offer mouthwatery trade e.g selling bitcoin at 400/$ when others are selling at 450 or 500.

3. Their mobile number if typed on google brings out information different from what they tell you.

4. Their profile is usually new - few months, a year or 2 years old.

5. They usually have little or no posts

6. They are always in a hurry during transaction..

7. They use different names and different accounts.

8. They block your number immediately after you transfer money to them.

9. They sometime come in the name of religion, calling themselves convenant child of God, commited muslim...blah..blah..blah

10. The greedy scammer engages in legit exchange for some period in order to earn your trust and burst you BIG.

11. They send money from bank account different from their name. This is MITM technique beware.

12. They write on the thread false scam story so that you would let your guard down when dealing with them.

13. They send customise SMS claiming a trusted member vouch for them or false bank SMS alert.

When you see these signs, it simply means a red flag, RUN!!!!

If you trade on reliable platform or buy and sell on reliable platform, you will never be scammed. By reliable platform I men wallets and exchanges that are very secured and are being used by a lot of people. Instead of selling to individual seller, you can sell through Binance, which is very secure.
