Topic: Beware; Do not Fall for Phishing Sites, Do Not Be a Victim of Scams (Read 2511 times)
Most adds on Facebook really don't hold that much credibility in ky eyes anymore. I even experienced phishing back then because of such useless ads that cost me more than $2k it's just so sad and sickening at the same time thinking about how people can bear to do this to other who work hard for what they have. Don't they stop and think that what if they stole from a person that needs the moneyin paying for chemo therapy, Dialysis or other important things? They are basically killing people. Murderers and thieves. Shame on these people.

Actually, any airdrop asking users to pay or send money for gas to send your reward is a complete scam, some scammers have used this method to acquire alot of money for themselves, I personally had an experience last year where I joined one airdrop on telegram, it seems all legit with a nice looking website, they were able to gather over 100k subscribers to their telegram channel, at the end, they asked participants to send 0.005 eth to cover the gas cost of sending their tokens, tens of thousands fell for this, I personally monitored the scammers wallet and the idiots were able to raise over 36 Ethereum in a period of just 3 days, really baffles me how gallible some people can be.
Experience is the main asset so that it doesn't happen again. The airdrop is now like flowing water. without stopping airdrops arriving using an enchanting concept. Why pay for the gas fee to get an airdrop token, while other, more legit airdrops are still waiting ..right ?

So the one you claim to be legit is really legit? I remember having read many negative reviews about coinmama.
Maybe the one with the .ru domain is a total scam, however I doubt the original one is what we can call legit.
Always do research when you are about to send your money to somewhere you don't know anything about.

As we enter this new platform, we are already held responsible of the money we take in our accounts or wallets. We should always stay updated on what are the current schemes of the scammers and be extra careful on the sites that we are visiting or making transactions of. Many people gets unfortunate as they become careless and too goal centered that they do not pay attention with the risks around them at all. Extra security in our wallets are not being exaggerated, instead we are just proving how much we value the money we get from investing and trading in here.

Unfortunately, those who will always be victims are new traders who still don't have much experience, so they end up getting a scam and stuck on a phishing website.

That's why it is important for us to be aware of the links we are going to click or register. If the site is asking for your private key other way to open your wallet, don't you ever try to put it on. It is obviously a scam. Just remember that there is no airdrops and bounties asking for any funds to get rewards.
AirDrop is a giveaway that is used by crypto developers as a means of promoting their project or token, and AirDrop participants are usually required to carry out certain tasks as a condition to get a number of Cryptocurrency Tokens, examples of tasks are following social media and sharing Twitter, Facebook posts or participants are required to join their official telegram, but if there is an airdrop developer who provides a number of funds, both usdt, eth and bitcoin, we can be sure if the airdrop is a scam and we should also be careful in clicking the link they provide because it could be that link Phishing links that are able to read and take over assets that we have in personal wallets.

Actually, if we do it carefully when we visit websites and don't click directly, should have avoided becoming a victim of phishing.
Unfortunately most people do not have this awareness, then be careful also to find the address of websites through the google
search engine which usually often appears phishing sites. One more thing, don't be easily attracted by giveaway whose amount is
unrealistic and requires a deposit first to get rewards, therefore it is likely the method used by scammers.

Greedy people will surely get caught in this trap, for you to get the reward you need to insert your private key to connect your wallet, this is giving away your money to scammers the easiest way, if you love Airdrops that much then go through airdrop sources like airdropbob.com, not all scam Airdrops will ask you to deposit money, some will tell you to claim your free tokens by inserting your recovery seed.
Agreed as long you are able to keep your greed in check, it is nearly impossible to fall for scam.As for those asking to send eth or whatever the coin might be, for you to receive your free token are majorly scam, but come to think of it, no serious project will go that route to do that.

I do not know a single person, who was never deceived or scammed. However, successful guys used these fails as the best lesson in their life. Now, they are very cautious and try not to make similar or even the same mistakes. Only fools cannot be taught ever.
Sometimes we have to pay dearly for a valuable lesson. That failure will make us understand better that this ecosystem is quite dangerous if we are not careful about security. Don't be sad, it's a process. Evaluate the failure so that it does not happen again in the future.I do not know a single person, who was never deceived or scammed.

Scammers are too clever these days and even use the Google ads program to advertise potaainga sites above real sites.
Always double check and if possible.bokkmark the sites once
You verify that they are the real ones.
Agree. scammers, use various manipulations that we don't even think they will. But that's what happened, I was surprised that they even made an official ad on google to convince potential victims. We really need to do some in-depth research, if in doubt it's better to leave immediately. Don't invest in something you don't know well, let alone just follow other people's advice. only invest what you can afford to lose Scammers are too clever these days and even use the Google ads program to advertise potaainga sites above real sites.

The difference between a domain is very clear, from a real website and a pishing website. for most beginners do not seem to care and it is a big advantage that they perceive. Moreover, the gifts they offer are also tempting. My advice is for anyone to be more thorough and not send petrol just to claim airdrop tokens.

Nowadays scammers are rampant and words or promises are very flowery to use to deceive. So we should not just believe right away. So it is better that if there is a project that is being offered to you, you must first study it carefully to find out what it contains to make sure that we are not fooled. Do not trust immediately until it has been reviewed.
