Many folks being scammed online take legal actions to the perpetrators. These may include reporting them to the relevant authorities or reaching the payment methods used to reverse their transacted money. What do you actually do?

I had experienced this once. Due to time constraints, I did not pursue to ask the company to terminate the account of the scammers. I just take it as a big lesson for me not to happen again next time.

As for me, if possible, I will report to the parties concerned to return the money I have, if it is not possible, I will make it viral to the public so that they are careful. The second option is widely used in our country because it spreads more quickly, and because of that, some people even take legal action against defamation. Even though he himself made a mistake, in the end he lost the trial in court.

Well I was scammed on a couple of cloud cryptomining websites, after realizing that they would not pay me I did not really do anything, I assumed that these sites were designed to steal your money and I never took them into account again.

After you have been scammed, you need to take measures to ensure it doesn't repeat itself again. Secure the things you need to secure. And take note of the pattern in case of next time.

That depends on the seriousness of the scam. If I joined a survey site, completed a survey, and did not get paid, I would write a negative review on Trust Pilot and quit the site. However, if the scam involves loss of a considerable amount of money or my private data such as credit card details being hacked, I'll report the case to the authority.

No, I don't do anything, but I try to learn from my mistakes and not repeat them again. We don't live more than once. It is better to concentrate more.

Yes, it is also sometimes you can not do anything since your money is gone and you can not recover it, it is best to forget and learn from the mistake and try not to fall back into these scams.

This has also happened to me on a forum like this. Postbucks was having a referral contest and because of this I promoted there link to win something and I had some followers but at the end before the contest end, I was banned for what I did not do and I lost the pricw

That's what I had in mind. Yes, the money that you lost on the Internet is gone. Nothing can be done and there is no point in blaming others. When we invest somewhere, we accepted the risk

Due to nature of online business, it is quite difficult to recover the money. I did not even try to report to any authority because I know they can not be able to change the situation at the moment. I simply move on.

It is clear as I said to another person in the forum the best we can do is invest in real assets and forget these websites that are designed to scam you with unrealistic promises and returns to attract you

Agree. For example, FreeBitCo is a good place to invest. I'm still thinking about that. :D Although it also has risks, but anyway, there is no investment without risk

Yes, the problem is that you can not join and join the investment, a shame to tell the truth, but well there are more places where you can do it so it is not a dilemma
