May I request everyone to report the page because it is still active as of this time.

You can report it to Google: https://safebrowsing.google.com/safebrowsing/report_phish/?hl=en

It won't take much of your time, less than five minutes but it will help a lot of clearing the crypto space with these cyber criminals.

Did my part, it doesn't even take as much as 5 minutes, I just made it a concise report, no other additional story and such, just a straightforward report. Hopefully more of this scam website will be reported to Safebrowsing because a lot of people are still falling for this even though the scam is obvious.

better to report that IP (104.21.16.92) also because possible the scammer create another project to try scamming people. like this one;

The other day I was watching a Youtube video of Saylor,

Elon was stale and the scammer tries to change the new figure. Saylor is also more expected because he has invested bitcoin more than Elon.

LOL!

The other day I was watching a Youtube video of Saylor, well actually I was listening to it because I was doing other things, and when I looked for a moment I saw the giveaway but I didn't realize at that moment that it was a scam. I came to think that Saylor was giving a real giveaway, facepalm. Thank goodness that for some reason, sending the Bitcoin yourself first didn't work for me. I didn't think much of it and went on about my business but now I see this post.

Yes I have done my part reporting it, and advising others to do it, it will not even take you a minute to do it, but I'm also advising all to do not to believe and consider it a scam any website that asks you to send coins and in return they will double, 100% these are scammers, save your hard-earned money, 100% of these are scam sites.

Done as well on my part:

Hope though that no one has fallen for the trick yet. I haven't check the addresses though, but we all know that this old trick is still very effective, specially for noobs who really don't understand that there's no free BTC or ETH in crypto space.

Any kind of giveaway online by an investment or crypto company that doesn't have any of their officials doing the announcement themselves is likely scam and you don't want to be falling for them because these giveaways are always too good to be true.

The first thing you will notice to those giveaways is they ask some amount so that they can give you much bigger rewards and for the said it is a giveaway the money ask to you is a big red flag, if we talk about giveaway you don't need any amouny to participate maybe there are certain task that need to do so newbies need to think smart about that.

I always see newbies fall unto this trap so hopefully they will learn something since this kind of scamming attack is so basic and yet there are still people who get caught on scammers trap.

Why copy paste sir?

I think it is for nothing but for merit. Op just need merit by hook or by crook. And also I think op does not know the rules of the forum or any other content rules that copy paste any content is policy violation by the site and for this type of violation the user can be banned from the forum.

Any social media giveaway or doubler, where you have to send money to get money, IS A SCAM.

TREAT THIS AS A RULE, NOT AN EXCEPTION

If you don't follow this rule you are too greedy, I have not seen a legit doubler and there is no way that they are going to double the money you give them, instead they will do the other way around and that is running away with your money.
I wonder when this send me this amount and I will double it scheme, it's been going on for years now.

I wish more people would get this into their heads. The recent twitter hack of many well known personalities and the following money donation scam, worked nicely to make people send their money over.

If someone uses social media, treat everything there as manipulated or clickbait. The biggest source of misinformation or disinformation is social media today and if you want to save your money and remain sane, stop using them as much as possible, only keep them running for what you need.

The hard truth, there is no method to double your money - that is a scam running from time immemorial and only the way it is presented differs.

MicroStrategy is quite popular in the crypto market as they are now an group among the largest bitcoin holders. So a
bad group is trying to scam using their names.

The real MicroStrategy should also take action by going after the people who launch a fake giveaway and using their name and reputation, this is bad for MicroStrategy people might think that they are the one launching the fake give away, they can afford to go after those guys not everyone here is good at checking if the giveaway is legit or fake, they are targetting newbies obviously.

Maybe you don't know that copy-pasting on the forum can lead to your account banned, so you need to read the forum rules. In case you need to copy someone else's phrases/text please put the source link at the bottom of your post.

I haven't reported your plagiarism. Please edit your post and remove the copied text.

Because he's a reporter base on his username, what an irony.

Regardless, I think it's still better to have this kind of copy pasting to spread awareness of such scam than those who just want to add on their post number, yet it's not accepted in this forum, coz there's a rules and his account should be banned/warned.

Back to op, I wonder if there are still newbies/non-newbies who got carried away on such scam. Always remember, if it's too good to be true it probably is.

Donot judge anything like this just by calculating the number of views or engagements. Whenever you see something like this just go to real website and find out the real scene before losing your money. Just keep in mind no one will give you something for free when it connects with money.

Its nothing new and we all know that these scammers are doing this kinda activity from the beginning. You can't stop them from doing this and they usually use popular & well known person's reputation to get new comers attention. Today its microStrategy and next day they will use another name to make people's fool.

There is no such thing as a giveaway in MicroStrategy at the moment, those who are using the name of MicroStrategy in the name of giveaway are fake and they are scammers. If they were really organizing any kind of giveaway, they would promote it using their various media. Because if big companies organize a promotional event then they promote it in a good enough way. Before believing in any giveaway, check the company's official social media.

MicroStrategy is quite popular in the crypto market as they are now an group among the largest bitcoin holders. So a
bad group is trying to scam using their names.

If anyone or any website offers something like you send this sum of bitcoin/ethereum/litecoin/dogecoin or somthing like that and you will receive this some of amount instantly/after a specific period of time then you should ignore/sip that without thinking twice. Otherwise you will be scammed.

Mostly fake giveaways like that ask something like deposit some BTC or make you try to register or log in on the link they provide that's why its really dangerous to get caught up and follow what they told us since mostly we will be easy target to them if we start to be curious and try what they offer to us.

To avoid this scam better leave it and don't look what they are promoting.
