Today CryptoBasic talks about something near and dear to their hearts – scams. This isn’t just crypto, but knowing what scams we’ve seen in the past and where they might be going in the future is very important in this unregulated market. Listen to Karim and Brent talk about the red flags you should be on the lookout for, and learn about this insane con man that had 10 commandments written about him. There’s plenty of crypto content, plenty of scams, and it’s all here on this episode.
