<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>So last time, I made a <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/xj7l1m/a_simple_guide_on_how_to_lose_your_precious/?utm_source=share&amp;utm_medium=web2x&amp;context=3">Part 1</a>, you can check it out if you want. Here is part 2 with some of your suggestions. Some people lose their crypto to scams quite easily, some people might lose their crypto to more sophisticated scams and some people are immune to scams completely. Especially the hot girl one, &quot;you get drained of seed and wallet.&quot; - <a href="/u/Mundane-Farm-4117">u/Mundane-Farm-4117</a>. But today, like yesterday, you will learn more ways to lose your crypto from scams! </p> <p>&#x200B;</p> <ol> <li><strong>Cloud Mining</strong> - Ah! After researching about mining Dogecoin and discovering it&#39;s not very profitable to mine, you then discover of this new thing called Cloud Mining! You find a site promising that you can mine Bitcoin in only two minutes with just a click of a button. You click the button, and after 2 long minutes, you just mined one full bitcoin. There is just one thing left, the site is asking for you to send some bitcoin through a QR code to &quot;verify&quot; the transaction! Of course, you send about $500 of Bitcoin because that is nothing compared to the full Bitcoin you are about to get! After 10 minutes, you are refreshing your iOS crypto wallet app and the bitcoins still haven&#39;t arrived! Then you realise that you got scammed! LOL!</li> <li><strong>Adult site Blackmail</strong> - After 30 minutes of checking the candlesticks on Binance in your bedroom, you decide to release your seed by watching some truly degenerate shit online. Degen watching degen shit as usual, no wonder why you can&#39;t get girls. Then you get an email, from some guy who has your search history and is threatening to release it to your family. The only way to stop that is to pay $300 in bitcoin to this address. You know that your father can&#39;t see what you just watched, especially the sissy captions videos you degenerate! To save face and hope that the blackmailer keeps his word, you pay the ransom LOL!</li> <li><strong>Dodgy Crypto Exchange</strong> - You mined a very small bitcoin-like coin called Nengcoin on your 2nd hand android phone, only around 50k market cap, and there are 2 exchanges that have listed Nengcoin. One is reputable and has pretty good features for advanced crypto trading, and the other one has it trading 100x more than the first exchange. Of course, you being the idiot and not checking the TrustPilot reviews, go to the one that has Nengcoin at 100x. You deposit your coin that you mined, trade it for 1 full bitcoin and try to withdraw it. You obviously fail, then in a fit of frustration, type the most enraged message to their support team. No reply. You finally checked the reviews <span class="md-spoiler-text">(should&#39;ve checked it first!)</span> and sure enough, 1 star out of 5 and no need to say what the comments are saying <span class="md-spoiler-text">&quot;no support team&quot;</span>. LOL! You lost your crypto and the Nengcoin you mined just 100x on the other exchange for real! LOL!</li> <li><strong>Reddit</strong> - This one is suggested by you guys. You, the greedy pig, you heard that all the &quot;1000x BSC gems&quot; originate in this specific subreddit here: <a href="/r/CryptoMoonShots">r/CryptoMoonShots</a>. You check the top post, SQUID-GAME SHIBA MOON CUM FLOKI INU token seems really promising, already 40% up since launch at sub 100k market cap. You put in about $1,000, it goes up, up, up and up. It just 1000x right in front of your face! 1 trillion dollar market cap. One lambo isn&#39;t enough! You can buy the entire lambo factory! You go to PCS, swap SQUID-GAME SHIBA MOON CUM FLOKI INU token to BNB. LOL! You can&#39;t sell! The token goes down to ZEROO. The sheer horror of your face encapsulates the moment your dreams of owning the lambo factory is burned down to the fiery depths of hell.</li> <li><strong>Nigerian Prince</strong> - This one was the most requested one. You&#39;ve heard of this scam before, auntie Mary fell for this one here but you are sure to not fall for it like Mary did. All of a sudden, an email pops up. Crown Prince Doudgees the IV from the house of Andredeux has passed away yesterday with an immense crypto fortune that will be split up with you and 17 other random people. You are supposed to receive <strong>$393,695</strong> in Bitcoin but you need to send $1,000 in bitcoin to pay for &#39;gas&#39;. You know it is a scam, you you think this time it will be different, I need the crypto because it is just enough to buy the base model of the Lamborghini Aventador. You pray for the best, that it is legitimate, and send the bitcoin. A day later, no response. You hope ad pray. A week later, no response. You hope and pray. A month later, no response. You cope as you realise you knowingly got played. LOL!</li> <li><strong>Market Manipulation</strong> - As you&#39;ve lost everything from the last 11 scams you were victim of&gt;! (not really victim because you deserved it)!&lt;. You begin to believe that these scams weren&#39;t random. There had to be something behind it. You start researching more and more delving deep into a rabbit hole. The Rothschilds, the Great Reset, Alex Jones, they all play a part of it. Bill Gates, the Rockefellers, the Clintons. Something, just something had to be behind this. Then he appears in front of your house. Not just he, they, they were the answer. They were the reason you were getting scammed. From the hot blonde to the Nigerian Prince. They were behind it. You thought they died from COVID-19, but that just made them more powerful. You&#39;ve heard of their powers, the ability to collapse entire markets. You decide to test them, you see Dogecoin up 20% today. All in... You breathe in, you breathe out. Click. Then the candle in front of your eyes changes from green to red as it thumps down to the bottom of your computer screen. you took the bait. You rage so hard that even your neighbours are looking at you out of pure concern. One thing left: sell. A moment passes and the red candlestick that gave you a fit of rage before boomed green towards the sky. UP 7000%. You cry. No one is enjoying it except the two people in front of your house. They are smiling. Say hello to Igor and Grichka Bogdanoff LOL!</li> </ol> <p>Part 3 soon?</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> &#32; submitted by &#32; <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/platniumperson"> /u/platniumperson </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/xjvohv/a_simple_guide_on_how_to_lose_your_precious/">[link]</a></span> &#32; <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/xjvohv/a_simple_guide_on_how_to_lose_your_precious/">[comments]</a></span>
