Topic: Another day, Another Lesson for those who want to learn (Read 392 times)
looks like just a scam, tricks done by fraudsters are very diverse. the point is that we do not easily believe the free. to make money in crypto, we have to work hard. for free ones, sometimes there is an airdrop, and I often receive airdrops.
If i received any token that i don't know, i usually check the token contract address first.
Most of them are spam tokens, it has been sent to many holders to get attraction from the receivers.
In my opinion, we shouldn't bother those tokens because it can lead us to a scam or phishing.

The thing is once you received such tokens just leave them be, do not try to send them out or trade them because this will give the scammers access to your wallet fully, I got 350 Luna tokens two days ago which has a link in the description, I knew this isn't the original Luna that we all knew, I just abandoned the wallet and move my fund to another wallet.
I experienced it also, but with another token. The method is also different from what I have encountered. At first I was excited to received free tokens worth 1k USD but then when I searched thoroughly I found out in order for you to withdraw those coins you have to trade on their exchange, for which you will be getting points in able for you to convert that coins you received. At that moment I knew something was off and just leave it on my wallet, another month had passed, the coin wasn't any value at all. If I had trade in their exchange I would've used a total of 20k USD, see what they are trying to do? Steal from you slowly and the mean thing is only that coin is allowable for you to trade in order for you to acquire that points which you can use to withdraw those free tokens. It just means that you have to acquire more of those to get them, what a scheme they have, so be careful of that tokens that they sent you.
If this isn't a scam what could it be anyway?
Usually tokens that have domains such as .io and others are dusting tokens that are ready to access your wallet when you transact with this dusting token. Your wallet is currently vulnerable to hacker attacks who can access your wallet, one solution is to replace your wallet and be careful in providing wallet data or connecting to dapps.
The trick is every receiver will try to sell and that's when you will be f**ked up, in this crypto haven nothing comes for free, you have to work your ass up to make some gains and rewards, go after only what you sweat and worked for.
Logically, no one wants to give a lot of money for free, cryptocurrency is not heaven, and we must continue to be careful in carrying out cryptocurrency activities. 
Scam tokens, things like this, are popping up more and more in this space every day. Some new users are not used to it, and they mistake it for valuables. Ask yourself if you deserve a drop of money, so be wary of anything sent to the wallet.
Such token issuances usually happen on the bsc network. They are often sent for advertising purposes. These tokens are constantly coming to my wallet. Usually, when I trade on pancakeswap, it automatically comes to my wallet. It would be better if you do not approve the aprove transaction to such tokens. Wallet hacks can also happen. In addition, when you look at the contract sections of these tokens, users state that they are direct scams. You can be careful here. In addition, a few scammers send tokens with the same names as the existing tokens. You must be careful.

I tried to visit the site from your screenshot ape-nft.io but it seems like that address is wrong.
At any point of time you can just dig in to the smart contract to find out which nft is genuine and which is fake.
Just verify and compare it to the original smart contract and you will find out if it's fake or not.

Yes, this is obvious a fake website and the good thing is that you can check if in the smart contract to see if this is fake or not.
Everything here should be taken with a grain of salt, and everyone has the responsibility to verify, verify and verify. I can't stressed that anymore, and if by chance you feel to this scammers, then its your fault for not doing your due diligence.

This is not a new thing. We already face this type of problem with several coins, and all of them are still in my wallet. When you want to sell that coin on a decentralized exchange like uniswap or pancakeswap, you can swap, but you may lose your balance because they set their contract address in a different way where they put their address and whatever transaction you are going to do, they will send you a signature, and if you approve that without checking, you may lose your wallet funds because they send a fund transfer.That is why when we go to add any new token to sell on the market, the decentralised wallet always shows a popup where they alert us about fake coin or token. That is why they always suggest taking the token contract address from the official handle of the coin or token.
A good lesson, so we have to be more careful in accepting anything that comes for free. it looks like a scam where it will make us fooled and confused as it is said. there are many modes of fraud that scammers do to deceive many people. for sure they will lure us very well and then they will make us lose. it's true that every day we can learn from the experiences that have happened to be more careful and better in the future. As it is said that profits in the crypto world will not come for free, it takes a process and also hard work in order to be able to manage and generate profits properly.

350 Ape is 4200$ 
this is a lot for an airdrop giveaway, its not even a airdrop that you participated in, they just decide to send that to your wallet for free, I hell no! This is obviously a big red flag, the Apecoin is fake and 350 would work on the greedy people, this scammer knows what he is doing 
.
And the thing is that someone might fall for it because he’s not the only one that have received that from the scammer. So, the question now is will other people who have received those tokens also reason it out like the OP did and be able to tell that this is another scam and isn’t anything legit? If they are up to ten there is likely going to be someone that might be that greedy to fall for it and thinking that the stars have shined upon them. How unlucky they would be when they finally discover it is a scam. this is a lot for an airdrop giveaway, its not even a airdrop that you participated in, they just decide to send that to your wallet for free, I hell no! This is obviously a big red flag, the Apecoin is fake and 350 would work on the greedy people, this scammer knows what he is doing .strategy coming from those scammers who will fall and engaged to what the scammers are intending to do. We can't say that
even with those many attempts that being done with this same format, everyone is already aware of these schemes.
Chances that there are still people who will try to sell and be disappointed knowing that there's none in terms of value
just a waste.

Have never experienced such before, but I have read a lot of posts about this and it is a scam so you should avoid spending that tokens so you wouldn’t fall for it. Seems like it’s becoming a normal thing now because I never used to see it regularly.
Most people would definitely gall for this due to the lack of information, especially the greedy ones that are always looking for free money in the crypto market, not knowing that nothing comes for free in the market the we days. Before you get anything you would work really hard for it.. They need learn the rules and adhere to it.

Be careful out there newbies and all crypto fans, a few minutes ago I made a few transactions in BNB from one wallet to another and I got this
I was like, OMG 😱 it's a free APE Tokens, but then one APE is 12$ on binance exchange, how can someone send me 350 pieces for me? That's where I became even more curious, I did some Contract Address findings and I noticed this
As you can see I'm not the only winner of these 350 APE tokens, this is where I started to get angry, saying to myself that why can't it just be only me? (kidding) Lol, as I proceed in my search I ended up with this website link.

The crypto space is still full of opportunities and it is still possible to make a x100 of your initial investment withing a relatively short amount of time, if you are very lucky and invest into the right projects. That being said it is also part of the truth and the whole picture that the crypto space is also full of shillers or so called influencers that are dumping tokens that they get for free on their followers after they have shilled that token to them and of course it is also full of scams and bad people that want to steal your money.
Especially on the BSC we see a lot of scam tokens recently because the transaction fee there is really low and you can send your scam token to a lot of people without having to pay a lot of transaction fees.
I think that mostly people aware about this kind of scam tokens that were always appearing anytime. As long as your wallet looks active and it will be sent scam token by the scammers. The only thing that needs to be remember by anyone to not try to connect or even try to do a swap the shit scam token like that to make sure if the security was safe. In my opinion if the scam tokens are very annoying for the wallet owners but the wallet owners can do nothing for that.
The fact if they can only ignore it in their wallet with the hope or migrate their legit tokens to the new address that has not yet known by the scammers

Spam attack was just a common thing this time. Double check in the smartcontract address is a must to avoid the copy cat tokens that eventually sent by scammers to the random address. I have seen so many people were also creating various thread about this problem and it seems like that the only solution to abandon it. The fact that if people are also facing the same problem like you even some have fallen into this trap and their assets got drained instantly. I just remember about the spam tokens that happened when the meme tokens have become a new trend in the past.
How many meme tokens got spammed to the random address to steal the assets.
