Lets look at a trading scam // For fun. :)

Today i was reading through my feed and stumbled upon a post by Theycallmedan (This one here. ) It was a post about curation etc..
I looked through the comments like i always do and there i picked up something i found funny. Some guy that was promoting a trading scam in the exact wording youd find 10-15 years ago on old news portals. ("Make thousands from home" type deal!!!) This post wont really be about warning the community that someone wrote that comment but rather to look a bit closer at the scam itself.

Usually i wouldnt give a damn and just downvote it but this time i would not do that, so i clicked the link. Landing page instantly opens a video and starts talking how theyre glad that youre here and how this stuff works. Apparently its some "super secret algorithm" that trades cryptocurrencies for you on auto and all you need to do is deposit $250.
You have 2 payed actors in the video telling you how they made a shit ton of money and a narrator throughout the video. (obviously another payed voice actor guy) Those two you can find on freelance sites doing acting jobs and on a few other scam videos.
I guess they were the two that most lacked any empathy for the folks that will get scammed so they cornered the "scam acting market" lol

If you google: Is "1k Daily profits" a scam you actually get a fair number of top links that try to assure you that the site is legit. One review i found especially funny.

Yep. You "KNOW" who is behind it. lol. This guy. John Becker, founder.

I found that John Becker guy. Apparently he does some modeling for Shutterstock. 😂 Makes you wonder... Does he model just for fun when he can make tHoUsAnDs oF dOlLaRs online with his trading magic. haha

Id say it would be pretty hard to fall for this scam unless youve just been introduced to the internet. Based on the wording it prolly prays on older folks and those that already have a tendency to fall for scams like this.
Remember this guy? Carlos Matos of BCC.

I listened to a few videos with him after the fiasco that was Bitconnect and from what he was saying he too lost a lot of money on Bitconnect. Not only that but apparently he lost a lot of money on other similar scams.
As hard as it might be to believe, there are actually people that are serial scam victims. If what Carlos is saying is true then he is one of those people.

These type scams might look stupid and silly to most of us but scammers like this dont need to scam "most". Only a few.

Anyways. Just wanted to quickly share and warn you folks to stay away from" too good to be true" offers.

One more thing before i end the post....

Id rather send John Becker, the trading magician, $250 then buy TRX with it.😎
