Thank you for providing the information. But is it possible to lose the assets without sharing a private key to anyone? just with the MyEtherwallet address?
Yes, it is possible to loose your asset without sharing your private keys if you dont take the necessary precautions. Moreover, if you open your myetherwallet through the wrong site just like those posted above, If your computer is infected by virus or keyloggers and if you open an infected emails etc.
We should really careful on signing-in on any crypto sites because scammers are always there to collect your information. Be observant, always triple check the site, and don't just click all the links on your email. Its better to prevent this because there is no way to get back your wallet if its already stolen by the scammer.

to find out the bounty or airdrop it scam or not is very difficult because we never know at the end of Ico it will pay off or not if we do not try, but we can see the list of scam sites in bitcoin talk to be reference materials before following an event.

It is a SCAM. Be careful before you enter your private key in any website.

Definitely sounds like one. Providing that kind of thing is a big no no for me. Checking the dev team and icohunt are a must

I have been facing too many scams hidden as airdrops. Take care of them. I guess it would be great to have them listed somewhere in this forum so anyone can avoid them ASAP.

Thank you so much for your work on the forum mate. I see really people want to get the free tokens instead of payment and work with bounties. Henceforth finally you will be able to get scammed because of the scam mate.


Please check the information about the project on the white paper and invest on the good ICO project. Then if possible please avoid the airdrops earning completely out.
That`s right which is some of crypto users right now want to get free tokens but they don`t think that some it are actually scam, earning airdrops is not actually bad it`s just an extra income which is you can actually earn for free, not like participating in bounties which is much bigger but even it will take so long but you don`t have to worry about it because all the participants in that bounty will get paid after the end of their ICO, but still you should also consider reading their whitepaper because as what i have read some news that there are scam also in ICO projects.

Nice to hear about the scam airdrop. Their are lot of airdrops and ICO which Are same like it. It is the users who have check fully before joining this type of bounty as they are always giving this type of candy offers so the users just get in their scam and lose coins

Slightly off topic,  but I hate these exchanges making big claims and hyping up airdrops and token sales,  then asking for KYC after the fact.


WCX did it and now CryptalDash is doing it.     It is really underhanded and smells fishy.

I made some bad mistakes in how I did airdrops.  I signed up for everyone I found, and now I am getting emails from companies that I don't remember if I signed up for or not.  Some are obvious scams, but others not so much.

I am receiving the same scam email from different fake airdrops which I believe came from a member on this forum. How they will do that? If you are active in bounty hunting and your email will be displayed on the spreadsheet, they will use that email of yours and send you that scam email notification about a fake airdrop which will direct you to a fake MEW to enter your private key. Be careful on providing your personal email in bounties guys.
scams have normal in cryptocurrencies especially many of the eye drops will be 4 people so we cannot choose which is best the best ways to make the investment with the proper ideas will helpful for all the people to get more income.

I get these kind of emails almost everyday!
Scamers has been increased a lot in airdrops and we need to be very careful, I have installed metamask which bans phishing myetherwallet websites and I suggest every one installs that!
Also a good Antivirus to prevent Trojans and address changers, it is jungle out there you know!

How will you be able to identify scam airdrops? Well, aside from that links that you need to enter your pks and other phising sites that is similar to the myetherwallet? I've heard that with the eth address someone can get the pk of that specific address how true is that?

There are lots of scams going on these days and only those who are smart will be able to figure when they are about to fall for those traps. It does not only happen in airdrops, it happens almost everywhere.

There are even fake wallets out there and once your money gets into it, forget about it cause there is no way you’re going to get it out. I can remember when such thing happened last year, a fake wallet was used to confuse people and everyone turned to accuse the main organization. It was very difficult to convince on what really happened. When you’re clicking links always check what’s up in the search bar.

There were some cryptos in past which later turned into scam projects but almost cryptos are legitimate these days because people are now aware and can easily detect intention behind project. You should carefully choose a good project by doing research on their development team, social media profiles, roadmap, etcitra. An example of successful and carefull team is Postoken.org, Soferox.com
