Web page on crypto scams Link does not come up when I search reddit, so presumably I have not presented this before. My apology if it is a repeat. Below is a web page I made roughly a year ago... I would have to go through my logs to get exact date.

The profits are not true. * The creator of the website lives in a foreign country. Think of a scam website as the ability of a scammer in a foreign country being able to walk through your local mall parking lot and put advertising for his or her scam under your windshield wiper. Worse yet: * For some people a website will seem more legitimate than a flyer under one's windshield wiper. I bought my last car before the Covid lockdown. The first car dealership gave me a nicely presented offer fresh from a laser printer, but the offer itself was terrible. I then drove to another dealership where we negotiated with pen and paper. Pen and paper offer was $3,000 less than offer from the other dealership's laser printer. Please do not allow technology to convince you that something makes sense. * There is no internet police that can stop scams before they happen, and sometimes there is no appetite to stop even ongoing scams.
