Nice post, however more kinds of airdrop actually exists. In example #BitcoinEvo $XBTE airdrop is a coin-based (and not token based) cryptocurrency airdrop, you can check it here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/airdrop-bitcoinevo-xbte-xpos-increased-blocksize-free-c-cexcom-3038677
In example in this kind of airdrop you have to download official $XBTE wallet and then fill the airdrop form with all the informations requested and you receive the coins directly in your wallet while the network is up and running already!
You can claim XBTE also if you do not own Bitcoin already
)). Its is true problems, with scammer everywhere :vThat's true. infact you must run the download in a VM first, or wait until others people, possibly trusted community members, try the software and confirm the genuinity of the source.
For $XBTE I can personally confirm that I tried the wallet, scanned and VM tested first and it all runs clean.
However always stay safe when you download softwares from the internet!
