đš Beware of Pump and Dump Schemes in Crypto! đš
Pump and dump schemes are one of the oldest tricks in the book, but theyâve found a dangerous new playground in the crypto world. Hereâs how they work:
1ïžâŁ The Hype Train: Scammers artificially inflate the price of a low-value coin by spreading FOMO (fear of missing out) through social media, groups, or forums.
2ïžâŁ The Pump: As prices skyrocket, unsuspecting investors jump in, hoping to ride the wave to the moon.
3ïžâŁ The Dump: The orchestrators sell their holdings at the peak, causing the price to plummet. Investors are left with heavy losses.
đ« How to Protect Yourself:
âïž Do your own research (DYOR).
âïž Be wary of coins with sudden, unexplained price surges.
âïž Avoid falling for promises of "guaranteed" returns.
âïž Trust reputable platforms like Binance for research and trading tools.
Remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is!
