Hi everyone! Approximately two month ago I took part in Gistcoin bounty campaign. Now I want to get my reward and the Gistcoin bounty manager in Telegram group explained me that to get tokens I need to import wallet on the resource @cryptotokenfix.com. The problem is the next one. When I had open this resource I saw the next page:

So, I find out that to get tokens I need to enter secret 12 words of my wallet on this resource @cryptotokenfix.com. I’ve read too many times that I shouldn’t write and give anyone those words or my wallet can be easily hacked. Bounty manager of Gistcoin bounty campaign said to me that [verbatim] “you not giving it to anyone and it is safe to put it there”, “you risk nothing”, “is encrypted end to end no one has access to your info apart from you”, “is only for you to be connected manually”, “there is nothing to afraid of”. “is safe and secure” and “the project is standing responsible for it”.
However despite words of bounty manager I still afraid to do that. Maybe someone knows how this works? There were a lot of participants in Gistcoin bounty campaign: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/paid-gistcoin-bounty-clubhouse-campaign-up-to-200k-in-gist-8weeks-5359083. Had someone already get their reward? Is it really safe and you have got your tokens with no problems?

seems not mate! because as you can see they're asking phrases, keystore, private key. which not a good idea. because for sure they can see it once you submitted it. beter to stay away in it, because of course once you do that they will have an access to your wallet as it's the only way to be honest. So if you used to store money on that wallet, never ever do that to prevent hacking..

I think, I've heard everything I need to hear. This was my first topic. Do I need to lock it now or let it be open?

Your account is back from 2017, you should be knowing how to lock your topic, but for refreshing your memory, it is a button in the lower left corner.

It would also be a nice addition to add a [solved] tag to the front of the title of the thread.

And always remember, that scammers know how to take the advantage of a victim's desperation. When you are in a hurry to claim your tokens because you worked hard for it scammers will attempt to intervene at that point. In the bitcoin world, never reveal your private key/seedphrase to anyone unless you wish them to take full access to your wallet.

I think you will the right thing and not follow their wishes? I think don't mind it because as long as you not send a secret word, you can be sure not your wallet will change hands, I've experienced something like you.
Don't trust to give anyone what is asked of your 12 secret wallet secret word.

it seems that all have received the gift of Gist coin, if you haven't got it, try clicking on your wallet in search.

indeed at this time the price of Gist is very low and seems to have difficulty moving up again and only hopes with an increase in bitcoin, even so I am the one who is still holding back the Gist coin.

I am confused why someone advised you that way inorder for you to get the Gistcoin that you deserve to get. I actually have the TrustWallet BSC address which I used in the bounty and then I just learned that they send me Gistcoin under the Polygon network which is no problem with my address as TrustWallet is now compatible with Polygon. Hope you can clear the whole thing with the bounty manager and make sure you are dealing with the real guy and not another imposter or fake one - there are so many in Telegram groups pretending to be the admin but they are not.

Well, I used my MEWcx wallet and really have problems now with getting tokens. Further will use Trust or Metamask! Thank you! I've got a good lesson!

Thank you! I'll try it. I asked not manager of bounty campaign @CryptopreneurBrainboss , but I asked in Gistcoin telegram groups:
@gistcoin_en and https://t.me/gistcoin. And in @t.me/gistcoin_en they've said me to do that.

You are wrong, Gistcoin only has 1 telegram group, which is https://t.me/gistcoin, whereas you here mention @gistcoin_en as part of them. You are wrong!

@gistcoin_en is a fake group, and this has also been confirmed via the gistcoin group. in the following message I took.

Source: https://t.me/gistcoin/8385

So, please turn off the hyperlink you created above, because this will make people make the mistake of entering their wallet into the web you created. better, put the link in the code, so it can't be clicked.

So, with this found, i believe cryptotokenfix[dot]com is a fake services.

I wasn't properly looking on and missed that info. That tellegram group just appeared in my telegram and I thought I've added it two month ago when entered the bounty campaigh and didn't check that it is not official but fake group. Thank you for recommendation, I turned off the hyperlink and you, please, turned off the hyperlink on that group in reposted fragment of my post.

V-t.Ester, if someone asks you to enter the wallet seed phrase, then this is a scam.
Don't ever do this.
If you are new to the cryptocurrency world, then buy a ledger or trezor hardware wallet, and hide your seed phrase so far that you need to spend several hours and think hard to get it.

I was really confused that they asked me seed phrase. They put pressure on me by words: everything works fine, you'll get your tokens with no problems, don't afraid. I tried to find info by myself but failed. That's why I've thought it's good idea to ask people hear for help!

Thanks to everyone who answered! You helped me a lot. I'll try to be more attentive next time!

I think, I've heard everything I need to hear. This was my first topic. Do I need to lock it now or let it be open?

I've tried to check on his telegram Group. and I don't find that @CryptopreneurBrainboss advises you to use the services on that website. But, what I found is, all you have to do is to log into your wallet ^{(your registered wallet for bounty)}using the Polygon network. You can do this by using Metamask. (guide)

You are doing good enough to not to immediately believe who sent you the message, please check the telegram username that sent your message and match it again.
