Pump groups on Telegram and Twitter are just taking your money

Please, people, stop joining these groups expecting to get rich. There is an endless supply of them on Twitter promising 400x pumps, and all any of them are doing is moving your money into their pockets.

I watched one of them promote a coin the other day, and it went exactly the way it always goes: the ticker gets announced, and seconds later the thing is dumping. They tend to run it on BTC pairs, and lately they have been doing it on Binance.

Do not rush in and swap your BTC for whatever they are shilling. The moment you buy, they sell, because they have been quietly accumulating that coin for a while before the name went out. The only people making money are the ones running the group. You are not one of them.

What I cannot get my head around is how they keep getting away with it, and how many people keep falling for the same trick.

Nobody gets rich in minutes in crypto.

It would be beautiful if a thousand of us flooded the chat with hype, everyone agreeing not to actually buy, and let them dump into nothing.

This is why I just wire my money to a Nigerian prince and let him handle the investing.
