DESCRIPTION:The ecosystem of cryptocurrencies has grown and changed signif
 icantly since Bitcoin's inception in 2008. This expansion\, however\, has 
 opened opportunities for cybercriminals\, leading to an increase in crypto
 currency-related scams. Although extensive research has been carried out i
 n relation to this type of scam\, there is limited research that analyses 
 the textual content from online forums and social media to identify crypto
 currency investment scams at scale in an automated manner. This talk prese
 nts  applications of machine learning models to detect cryptocurrency inve
 stment scams through the analysis of textual conversations\, offering insi
 ghts into the evolution of scam luring tactics and the monetary impact the
