this is like a slack case a few months ago, they can access our wallet by inserting a fishing link. very dangerous.
This is a new motive unless the bounty manager asks for a payment.
it may be accountable.

Its not new anymore about slack phishing links which this issue been busted for last year as far as I remember which this lead up on losing lots of money because people are too careless on putting up informations or sending out in wrong address on the funds should be putted on ICO investment this is why most projects as of now are preferring on using up other medium when it comes to communication.

You should be. Dumbness should not have place in this kind of environment. You must stay wise, think critically, observe before making decisions and clearly understand it first before trusting. Scammers are everywhere, then you should protect what you need to protect.

Actually, I already encounter those kind of persons in FB, they will ask for your btc address to become one of the lucky persons who will receive their giveaways and it's alarming to know that many people get hook into it. How come that a stranger will give you some coins? Weird right? Huh

But I wonder, what is the significance of those addresses for doing their evil stuffs?

Never ever send any ETH/BTC to a wallet given to you within telegram or elsewhere by people pretending to be support/admin!

Proof is everything based on my experience i tend to ignore everything if the service is kind of sketchy never trust anyone with your money before sending anything ask for more informations gather it so you can know if it's legit or not basic resrarch101. Don't be fooled by others if they don't have a clear transparency towards their business or service. There are so many victims because they refuse to learn anything and speculate something,"check before you click"

I agree. I think many get scammed or hacked in this market is the fact that many wants to get easy money. More and more people seem to want to jump the gun and be rich quick. And, that the exact attitude that scammer want to exploit. I have a friend that got his wallet hacked because he tried to enroll in an airdrop where they asked about his account details. Unfortunately, he didn't think that the link with which he needs to sign in is actually a scheme to steal information about one's wallet. In just a couple of hours, the holdings in that wallet he gave to was all ripped off. I think just be cautious with all your dealings. Scammers may hit any time.

You wanna express yourself more? What is the issue or is there anything that you came across and got scammed or something. Because if that’s the case then you should open up really that will help everyone here to understand the matter deeply.

We already know that crypto is full of scammer if we don’t take care of our things. Just a single key can open doors for millions of dollars and lead towards scam.

There had been many reports in the past like this but they did explain what’s the issue. I remembered one when there was phishing of MEW was hot topic. The fear came in when many people lost their keys after inserting it into web page which was similar to the original MEW (that’s phishing).

When the issue was raised a lot then afterward we saw new pop ups from MEW sites to stay cautious.

This way we can help each other. Good that you are making us aware but do make briefe conversations. :-)

Thank you for reminding us. As of to day scammer are every where they are always around and waiting for the proper timing to bait anyone that has no idea about them. Many scammer now are sending they ETH and BTC address to anyone and offer they services and support to you and they pretentious that they are one of the admin. And again beware to the scammer.

thanks for the reminder, the scammer is really annoying because there are many victims. so maybe these scammers will be late for them not to have other people's head yet.
