Thanks for sharing this. These scammers should stop what they're doing. It would be a better world if everyone would be fair. We don't need so much wealth because we can't bring them to the other world. I think a wealth just enough for our family would be better.

Some airdrops are legit, however, there are a lot of scam airdrop and shitcoin airdrops nowadays. However, legit airdrops are worth it because I was able to get $2,000 from an airdrop last year. People should be careful because there are airdrops that have a phishing site. Some would even ask for donations for more coins, which make it suspicious.

You must be lucky to get 2k dollars in just an airdrop. I remember last time i only get 300 to 400 dollars after i sell the token that i get from an airdrop but i regret after a few days because the price of it has still continue to rise up to 3k dollars. that was ny first mistake so far on an airdrop however im still thankful because i only get that token for free without doing an effort at all. Anyways airdrops does not have the ability to scam people because they only give away their coins without begging for a return.
Will have to correct you here. It is possible to get scammed by airdrops in several ways. For example, some airdrop campaigns will ask you to download their wallets in order to receive free coins which many users blindly download. The problem here is that these wallets are cleverly designed viruses meant to steal your credentials by hacking into your system which is one way of losing your hard earned money just like that. This is why I advise everyone not to get greedy and download wallets linked to popular coins only and never give away your private keys.

Can you give an example of one or more wallets which has been a security risc? Hopefully not Speedcoin, Stratis, Deviant or Biblepay...
I have joined more than 100 airdrops now and so far i have got 11 transactions of different coins and tokens unto my erc-20 address already and more is coming. For sure not all airdrops are scams!

Thanks for the warning. Actually, I separated my wallet into two type. One for airdrop, another one for bounty.
I also to make sure to separate my private key folder and public address.

Nice post though thanks for your help, madami narin akong nakitang ganyan ang masasabi ko lang maging mapanuri lang tayo mga kaibigan. Dahil madami ng ganyang airdrop hindi tulad ng dati maasahan mo talaga , tulad ng mga bounties dati kaso iba na ngayon , sa dami na ng camp o airdrop mas lamang parin ang mga scam. Kaya minsan ayoko na mag airdrop kase mas madami ren natatakot na rin ako sumali dahil may experience narin ako ng ganyan. Ang masasabi ko lang maging mapanuri lagi at lagging mag tatanong.

LOL, what language is this? Did you forget to turn on your Google Translate? This is English board. Make sure to preview your post before sending it.
To OP, nice warning dude. Thanks for reminding us. Scam airdrop is very bad for crypto ecosystem these days.

Hi, thanks for the tip, badfully more and more airdrop are scam, anyway it is not an airdrop when they ask you to give ETH or whatever, golden age of airdrop are finished scammer are in the place
That is why I do not join any airdrop now because it become trend and many are copying it and asking for donations for you to claim their airdrop which is the way for them to scam your account. Other, some airdrop has been given but worst it had no value in the market.

Lots of scam Airdrop this days, now better to follow airdrop with a viable project, never download a wallet on your laptop to earn airdrop,do detailed research before filling a form for airdrop, We need regulators in the crypto space to help reduce scammers and serious developers

Hii, so there are many airdrop nowadays. But some of them are scam. Here are the list of SCAM airdrop do not join the Airdrop.

Thank you for the list.
But can anyone explain to me why they are called SCAM? SCAMs should earn money but airdrops are free. What's dangerous in it if you don't invest your money?
