i am just quite curious on the different ways a person get scammed in the internet so that i can avoid it and not to experience it again. lately i was scammed by a HYIP investment scheme in the internet and i hate it.

Beware of all High Yield Investing Programs that is offered online. Especially when it is an networking style of business and it promises high yields such that it would already sound as to good to be true. I was a victim of the francswiss investment that is operated online. I invested $1000 dollar expecting to get a triple of it as a return when the maturity time of 60 days espires. It turned out to be a scam and the site disappeared like a ghost along with all my investment. I became clueless of whom to pursue to return the money i have invested. It was just bad luck and at the same time foolishness in my part to be engaging on such online scams.
