Cryptocurrency Scams

We’ve all heard stories of people making huge amounts of money investing in cryptocurrencies.

But where some have made a killing, others have lost an awful lot of money — you only need to look at the volatility in the price charts to see that. Worse still, some customers who ‘invested’ never had the chance to make money, as they lost everything to a cryptocurrency scam.

But if you do dip your toe into crypto, it’s important to recognize that it’s also fraught with danger and riddled with lots of illegitimate websites and scams. Look out for blogs, where we will be talking about the common crypto scams we see.
