Do you know where I may find more websites as these?

Thanks
There is no magic. You just have to dedicate a little time to search for them from the web. Most of them are usually promoted in places where people discuss crypto like this one or even crypto related social media groups, the most popular scammer haven being telegram.

Hello FatFork,

Do you know where I may find more websites as these?

Thanks

I'm not sure why you'd want to find scams like these other than to expose them publicly and warn other members about them. Anyway, I found that some of these sites are being promoted on social media, and some of them have even tried to lure victims from this forum. Furthermore, I follow several cybersecurity research groups, such as @MalwareHunterTeam, that regularly alert of such and similar cyber threats.


I do work for anti money laundering, so this is why. Been reporting myself and responsable for the scams arround Ukraine past month. Any new way to find them is welcomed, there are tens of hundreds of sites made daily.

An excellent piece of work here by you. The list is extensive and you deserve full credit thank you. What is sad to read are the actual number of attempts at scamming people and the justifications provided by the scammers.

Potential donors have be aware that these are all scam websites and every single penny of any funds sent to these scammers will be going directly to their own pockets.

Make sure you send your donations to the right place!

Also many of the archives from the first part don't work anymore.

I fixed the broken links I found in the first post. Unfortunately, some archives are not available.
Sites that are reported in different topics may appear twice.

I work a lot with anti money laundering companies so this is why I have checked all the links from this thread.

This site have been added twice: https://donate-ukraine.info/ (on 2 lists here)

And the site that made me write this post was this: http://unitedhelpukraine.kiev.ua . When you go to the donate button it redirects you to ru version of blockchain.com. Motherfuckers, pieces of shit, animals.

Also many of the archives from the first part don't work anymore.

As @examplens stated here, it appears that the "SlavaUkraini DAO" is a fake project launched with the obvious goal of fraudulent fundraising and taking advantage of the current situation in Ukraine. Scam was originally posted [archive] by a newbie account shredded_ceo.

I'd rather donate later on when the War is over especially if there's an NGO already working on the site to help Ukraine recovers, you can be more sure that your money will be forwarded to those people who are really in need. Keep watching this thread, we might see more fake domain.


We have a huge number of scams dedicated to Ukraine donations, just like in the days of Elon hype of Doge it's preferable to donate when the war is over for rebuilding, but countries who can afford to donate ammunitions and food supplies for the soldiers who are in the middle of the battle, we are just feeding scammers and we all know scammers are heartless, they don't care about the war.

Yea, the war between Russia and Ukraine become an opportunity for scammers. Thanks for sharing the information about scammers. No reason to donate any others where authorized sources tweet about the cryptocurrency donation. Scammer using sentiment and emotion to scam us. We should be careful when spending money online to make sure money goes to the right place.

Is the government of Ukraine aware that scammers are using their country to scam people they should establish their donation address and make people aware of these scammers exploiting the situation, this war is feeding scammers this is very bad and disgusting after the Elon airdrop here we are the Ukraine donation scam, I hope they make it aware so those who want to donate will not be deceived.
Most probably they are aware of this, this is why they tweet their right address details https://twitter.com/Ukraine/status/1497594592438497282 - and even confirm that this is their correct address. Though of course you still have to stay cautious since this can still be a hacker's address and there's an on-going cyber war as well.

The list of scammer's address has been multiplied, I'd rather donate later on when the War is over especially if there's an NGO already working on the site to help Ukraine recovers, you can be more sure that your money will be forwarded to those people who are really in need. Keep watching this thread, we might see more fake domain.

Make sure you send your donations to the right place!

As might be expected, we began to notice an increasing number of fake sites trying to take advantage of the Ukrainian crisis to scam altruistic individuals looking to help those in need. Since some members have already pointed out a number of fake domains, I decided to put them all in one place for easier reference.

Anyone who wants to contribute is encouraged to post in this thread, so if you come across such scam attempts, please let me know so I can add them to the list. However, please keep the thread clean, without unnecessary or off-topic comments.

So without further ado, here is a list of FAKE donation sites I've come across so far:
