I’ve only been trading for two months, but I’ve been studying scam patterns alongside risk management, and this Bitcoin ATM trend is exactly the kind of trap that preys on beginners and everyday people, not “investors.” What I’ve learned is that scammers don’t need you to understand crypto, they just need you to follow steps under pressure, and Bitcoin ATMs are perfect because the process feels like “depositing” money when it’s really sending it away. The impersonation angle is also scary, “bank”, “company”, even “police”, because authority makes people obey faster, and once the money is converted, there’s no easy undo button. The safest habit I’m building is verification discipline: hang up, call the institution back using an official number, and never use a number the caller gives you. If anyone tells me the fix is a Bitcoin ATM, a QR code, or a rushed transfer, I treat it as a scam signal and walk away.
