This is just to help people avoid getting scammed and to keep a safe community here. If you have anything which you see is inappropriate please PM me, thank you! 
Overview:
To be honest, i don't know even know why i'm writing this shit, like it's pretty obvious and simple but some of you mf's can't understand shit so thought i'll just do some more awareness. I'm hope that no one is that much pleb who needs history of what is scamming but if there is any please read this. This guide is to help you avoid or at least recognize scams, cause there alot thirsty out there looking for free shit (who isn't tho Kappa). I'll be discussing the common ways, how they are executed and how you can prevent them. I might keep this updated from time to time but if you have any suggestion post em' below or message me. Leave a like if you find this helpful and perhaps use this site in your signature to aware more people!

Ways:
Actually a scam can be carried in a lot of ways, among the full planned to the simplest. Here are some common ways on how scams can be carried
1) Impersonation (1-on1 deal's)
This is when someone try to be someone who he isn't to carry various deals so he could get free stuff under his name and his original identity is not confirmed. Discord is where this is mostly seen done. Now how to actually prevent these scams. First of all i would suggest to not to link your discord's on threads or post them randomly. Why? it's simple, a thread/post can be seen by 1000 of people (even the non-registered considering no hide tags are used) and this way a 1000 different people can reach you and you won't know who is who. Discord names/tags can be some what replicated but Discord User ID can't be, you should always check if the the dealer you are associating with is the same by checking his Discord ID this would less the impersonation by a factor. Don't know how to check Discord ID's? read this guide! Confirming on-site comes next, the best and safest way to proceed. If the person confirm what else do we need, ask the person to send you a message on-site (PM). What message you may ask? well i personally ask or send the screenshot of the chat log i have with that person, asking if it's him or not and then ask him to send me screenshot of that PM on Discord or whatever platform. 
 
2) Bot's, autopilot & craps (method scams):
 These are simple to identify but yet people fall for them. No BOT will pay your house bill's understand it already god dammit, these bot's or method are designed to take from you not to give you. The mechanics behind how these work is simple, the bot's/autopilot method's work in a loop manner. Usually it ask for you to first sign up, then inviting random bot's and stuff and then last step is ya refer 5 new users (and you are not inviting them for profit but inviting them to get fool'd as well SadNigga). Redeeming anything of them is not possible, bs and ads will keep running till you die. To avoid them just don't be dumb, stoping falling for them as they will probably never work. Word indicators: Autopilot bot , Free Income Bot, Earn 1K$, BTC earning free etc..
and will probably look like these..

3) Click-baiting, RATs & Scripts (click based scams):
These are the most unsafe and usually unrecognized scams. Make sure what you are clicking, a single click can fk your privacy up. Some websites ask registration first, private details such as payment and stuff. People can bind anything in a simple program. You never know what can attached to these free public checker/crackers. Possibly a RAT or different malware's, or just scripts cause free income to others using you. In other words, taking advantage of your dumbness  Pepe. To avoid this website with zero security measure shouldn't be signed up (i mean don't give your email/password or any private details on them) this also goes for website whois owner/developer are not known/trusted. Use Sandboxie/Virtual Machines/RDP's to test applications/scripts or if that's an effort for you simply upgrade and use tools from upgraded-section which are from verified people for community. Another common thing is checking the Virus threats for any program, usage of virus total to scam for example.

4) General Scams:
A general scam can consist of selling public stuff, useless stuff, not delivering what paid for or even proxy selling. This is pretty self-explanatory. However, still you do to following checks to verify. Another common practice can be selling something more than it's worth, like a product being $5 and it being sold for $50. Simply avoid this by doing discussion in marketplace or doing research on what you want and how much is cost or can be sold at. 
- Cracked.to profile: Check for the users account age, investment (what upgrades he has), open disputes and possible past experience.
- Vouches: Checking for Vouches of a User. (request one if none but only if you are godlike or heaven).
- Always so with stuff/seller who have support in there plans. This will at least help you in future for any sort of problems.
- Discuss abit before you buy, sometimes what we see is not always what we get so verify it.
- Incase you are scammed from anyone from here, file a scam report in Deal Disputes
