Without any further information, I would go for the scam option. It is very easy to strip nebies of their investments and so many people are making good money of it!!

It is not a new way of promotion this is called as airdrop but what you got in airdrop is just a small amount but when you see it you will get interested about the coin and start searching for it this might lead you on investing in their ico to grab more coin.

You didn't mention what type of wallet or service you use. Maybe the supplier sent you the coin, or you have post your address to some place and then someone wanted to give you rewards. Receiving coins does not need the private key.

Hello everyone need all of yours attention please.

Yesterday I saw my wallet have some new coin, the interesting thing is I never buy this kind of token or coin , even I don't know anything about these coin. First time when I saw it I was really wondered, But when I thought deeply One question arrive in my mind its could be a trap for scam. I don't want to scammed.  



Past I remembered some people are did some crazy or silly move with gmail or yahoo or other mail , they send 10000 email in a time in one mail to give some pain of the mail owner. That problem solved because they can make a filter on there mail and remove all worst mail. But is ETH wallet have any option that we can remove all worst token or coin from our wallet.I checked my wallet valuable token , I really suffered to find and check my token because a lots of new token came in my wallet.Need suggestion from all of you. I also want aware all of you if it is a trap of scam.



I afraid if I want to cash this type of coin and they ask my private key then they can access my wallet easily. So all friends please be aware about this.
If anyone have any technical and better idea about this kind of token or its have any risk please let me know your opinion.If we see any kind of token , My opinion please avoid this token otherwise you may have to sacrifice your wallet. Wish you all have great health and safe life.

I cant consider this to be a scam yet those tokens are just credited on your wallet without your awareness or doesn't even know on where those coins came from and its still a good thing on my side though yet those coins has nothing to do with your keys nor affecting security. Having 1 or 10 coins wont really still change the fact when it comes to risk factor when your key is already compromised. If you don't like on having a long list then you can do anything about it but to scroll.

It's just new coin promotion. I don't have any idea about stealing your wallet through sending token. So you don't have to worry about it. It seems they sent token randomly.

Agree with most of the people here. You dont have to worry about the coins that you have not bought or gotten from bounty for which you never tried anything. Those coins could have been sent to you mistakenly, or may be as promo etc. This could be representative of their project, sometime they can be too legit to spend so many coins too. However you should just not proceed for any website link that might have been published in the log or comment section so that you dont get carried away with it. I guess it absolutely fine for your wallet as a coin cant do anything. Its just number that you see and the coin sits in the blockchain.  Wink

As long as you have your private keys stored securely and do not let any one have access to them you should be good.  Could you imagine if you could gain access to someones wallet by sending them a coin.  Yikes!

It is good to see you not taking such things lightly and is really conscious. I will recommend you not to go for this coins until you are sure about it. This can be scam or anything. You shouldn't risk your private informations.

It may be that this token was simply sent to you by mistake, that is, someone just entered your wallet incorrectly in a particular campaign, and now something for free has come up to you, be happy!

If you have no idea about where the coins came from, then you should not try to cash it. You can check the history of how this coins came into your wallet. We should be very careful.

Campaign Management?"Hhampuz" is the Man
This sort of post has been published before too. But anyhow, this is no scam. This is more like an ad that was placed. And then the coins disappeared  as soon as the coins expired.There is nothing to worry about, as long as the private key number is safe.
Yup your right on this one mate,i have seen this one with my friend,and the coins just disappeared i dont know whats the strategy about this when the coins has expiration lol

But OP you should not be bother about this because as long as you have your key and the wallet nothing to worry about

Actually this is not a scam they mainly do advertise based on this when it is expired that time they minimize the advertisement based on this also you can secure with your private key until it is safe there will be no problem.

this also happend to my ethereum wallet, and the thing that attract my concern is that in the coin description (or ticker), has some links. Even though I think it is impossible for hacker or anyone to hack using this method but I still moved my major asset to other wallet. I suggest you do the same, better than you regret it later.

What kind of token that you received or what's the name of that coin? May I know?
Don't be a afraid just think it carefully if you sign in some of airdrops or you sign in bounty  campaign because sometimes there's some projects that will give you an token like what I received months ago.

These are known as promo coins. They are sent to you by the company as a promotional activity of their coins. If you decide to keep them, you will have to buy them. But, if you keep them in your wallet and don't buy them, they will disappear after the promotion period is over. There is absolutely no reason to be afraid about.

These are promotional ways of popping up coins in your wallet, to see if you use them or purchase anything with them. If not used they will be taken away by the providers without harming your personal wallet and cash in it. Don't worry it's not a scam but a new promoting technique for users.

My friend came up with several different tokens in almost one day. Generally, I do not see any scam in this, I think it's just an advertising action that people buy their tokens. Although these tokens may not have a future.
