The link above contains a login details that I recieved from a strange person as message. When I first saw it I already understand that it can be a trap from scammers if I should go on to see how true it is, I just had to snub the message because what was sent to me doesn't belong me.

I got scammed before now that's is why I'm able to figure out that the message to me was from scammers.
Only a greedy person will fall to this trap, no person will send a detail that has a good amount of usdt.  I know scammers use different strategies to get people,  but this one is too easy for someone fall for itt thinking is not a scam.  Receiving message from a strange number to offer to give money can never be genuine .

Good thing that I never entertain this kind of scams.
A random stranger just giving you SMS with a login credentials that leads to a wallet with millions worth of crypto? Come on.
I had received plenty of SMS that even gets automatically marked as spam by my phone and regardless if it was marked or not, I would not click any sort of link from my messages.

This is where the whole fraud scheme is revealed. A man, not understanding can enter a secure key from his wallet and... Goodbye to the entire balance.
Someone that is desperate is likely to be one of the victim of these.

Any message coming from an unfamiliar person should arouse suspicion. Ask yourself where you left your contacts. Is your phone number visible to strangers? Whether Is it allowed in your settings to invite you to groups? All these precautions are necessary to minimize the risks of clicking on all sorts of links that scammers regularly send everywhere.
Do not leave your contacts; why do you need strangers on the Internet who mostly have selfish goals?

Okay, I chose one of the two proposed addresses and clicked on "Withdrawal". A window popped up prompting me to enter a secure key.
I thought it was an old trick when you will hit the withdraw button it has a minimum amount that is required before you can initiate a withdrawal, so you need to deposit the required amount which leads you to get a scam.   But this is different now, asking for your secure key which is not given based on OP's image shown.  But is there anyone who falls into this trap?  It's obvious that it's a scam trap.

That's why we should always be vigilant in dealing with strangers people who send PM first.
There are too many ways how to scam naive people that new to crypto, but it has an advantage if you've knowledge on it.

I decided to check to satisfy my curiosity. I logged in using the login and password shown in the picture. This was the page that greeted me.



I clicked on the "Output" button.

On this page it is proposed to enter only the amount for withdrawal, and the address is not possible to enter. From the drop-down list you can choose one of the two addresses specified in this list. It is not clear.

That's pure scam!!!
I'm just happy you didn't give out any response to that. These are one of the ways that people get scammed Everyday and, as a matter of fact -- when this people get scammed once, they'll live to learn their lessons from it -- they avoid falling into the same mistake next time. These guys are coming up with newly oriented ways to get peeps scammed of their coins so I'd advise that you keep whatever you have in you intact and don't believe anything you see on net.

Just imagine that....... That's ridiculous man, sorry for 'em losses -- you've learnt to contend, but I'm afraid that was the hard way though.

Quoting for visibility.

And yes, this is a obvious scam that has been running for years now. And it's good that you didn't fall for this trap. This could be like

1. you login and see that amount
2. however before you can withdraw they will ask you to deposit first
3. and that's where you get trap because once you deposit, you can't withdraw that amount

Yes, it's definitely a scam. I've been hearing about fake USDT mint and trading platforms for a while now. But I'm not sure this is the same as what you're talking about. They will often contact you via Telegram or Whatsapp and provide you with a username and password. As if by accident. When you log into the website, you'll find that there's an unusually high amount of USDT (of course it's not real) which you won't be able to withdraw.

They're using old techniques but coming up with new names everyday for scamming new set of people.
