It's a complete scam, good thing you didn't connect your wallet to these sites, they would empty your whole wallet. It generates these tokens specifically on the bsc network because transactions are cheap. If there are coins in my wallet that I have not purchased or applied for any airdrop, I do not touch them. It is necessary to be careful, scammers always find different methods.
I'm not quite sure about the wallet connect thingy. I didn't proceed to check it myself to be honest, I'd rather not test it, however, I've read that the main catch happens when you try to swap the fake tokens. The pools often have extremely low liquidity, thus, you're unable to conduct the trade, but your gas fees are deducted normally (which in many instances are high).

the scammer sending look like similar name coins which one is top ranking coins and most interesting thing is when will show coins value that's why most of the people get confused and go to swap It’s called a dust attacked. Greedy people are more likely to be caught here because they don’t crosscheck before swap.
I did not know that you could get your wallet hacked this way, how do they even do it? I mean I get that if you connect your wallet to some bad place then they would be connected to it, but how do they even give a command to empty your wallet just because you are connected? Thank god that did not happen to me so far because god knows how many places I have connected my wallet to, some of them could easily been a very bad place and I am glad that it wasn't.

Hopefully we will move towards something that is a lot more easier in the future, it is not really difficult to build wallets that would be safe against these type of attacks, people will keep on being victims of this unless wallets find a way to end it.

Those are spam tokens that were commonly found on BSC and Polygon wallets. I think the reason is that BSC and Polygon have the cheapest TX fees that's why those people who created spam tokens are just done it easily without spending high on transaction fees. Unlike Eth the TX fees are quite high, that's why that problem did not exist on Ethereum Network anymore. But just be careful not to connect your wallet because who knows that they have a shady function that can suck all your balance in an instance.

I'm usually using Yieldwatch to keep track of my yield results, however, its uptime was average the past few days and resorted to Growing.fi. I noticed that my Net Worth was strange looking, showing more than $500,000 worth of coins, which startled me. Upon further investigation, my wallet appears full of some sketchy looking tokens.

Their website prompts you to connect your wallet, but I'd rather not to, how did these appear? Why are in my wallet, and why is Growing.fi showing them and Yieldwatch isn't?

Bad sign. Don't try to swap or do anything with these type of coins. All these tokens are scamed toke
Scammer usually send these type if coins to active address. They might take your address from bounty spreadsheat. When you try to swap they will charge high fee and token swap will be fail.
I recommend you to change the wallet and don't use this one.

This could be a scam to steal your wallet's assets. When you make transactions in the blockchain, your wallet address may have been collected by hackers and sent junk tokens in bulk. If you connect your wallet to those sites or swap them on decentralized exchanges, you may lose all your assets. Be very careful in the crypto market, there are many scams

This are all scam tokens which are randomly distributed to as many addresses as possibly, the day you try to interact with the contract of this tokens is the day your wallet will be hacked, so I did advice you never ever try to sell any of those sketchy tokens.

And as for why grow.fi is showing them, my assumption is, this tokens all have liquidity on pancakeswap, so as to lure unsuspecting victims into trying to sell the tokens, so maybe grow.fi is reading their prices on pancakeswap which is why it's displayed in your portfolio.

I've lost 200$ trying to sell a token that i saw in my ETH address months ago since then I've learned about this scammers trick, don't ever try to claim token that you never worked for, if you see token in your wallet that isn't yours just leave it or stop using the address

Day by day some unwanted Coins are being added to the wallet which are showing a lot of value but they have no value in any market. They are just scam Coins.  If you go to exchange those coins, gas fee will be deducted in any way, there will be no exchange and there is a possibility of wallet being hacked.

Dude beware. You are a victim of a dust attack. Scammers collect public wallet addresses and send tokens to them. But you can't exchange such tokens in exchanges like Pancakeswap because of low or no liquidity. So you have no choice than to head to their website where your wallet is hacked if you connect to their portal
Yeah, first thing I did was to check if they existed on PancakeSwap and BSCscan, of course, neither searches yielded no results. Only possible way to "trade" them, was through their website, which was sketchy looking to say the least, requiring you to connect your wallet.

Be careful, many unknown tokens is coming to almost wallet in the world. Usually the balance suddenly come and it shows the value (almost a few till a thousand dollar).
But that's all is fake. Usually the users call this as DUST TOKEN.
Make sure you don't invest on it, on its platform. And don't send or swap the token everywhere because once you do it, may be your wallet is in danger.

I don't think it's strange, is it all bounty results or do you often follow airdrops?
I just checked my total bep20 wealth on Growing.fi, I have a fairly large amount which I then add custom to my trustwallet and it's ready to be sold when the price is high according to my target.

If your number or wealth data doesn't appear in Yieldwatch, I don't think you need to worry.

As for the problem. Their website asks you to link your wallet.. well you shouldn't do it as the experts have mentioned here for the safety of your assets.

Did you read his response about this? He said that he didn't participate in any bounties or airdrops. That's why he is asking how the hell they got his address/es.

Myself have seen a lot of this in past, even I received such unknown token in my wallet.

My best advise is just totally ignore it mate, and don't be curious about it.
Yeah, long back itself this is there. I've seen this in myetherwallet. When I check for the rewards from bounties I used to see some additional tokens which weren't part of the bounty as well as which isn't available in the market. But, here the value is very big and it'll surely tempt users to give a try and analyse what it is all about. Within my wallet the number of tokens seems to be high, but the values were not more than $5


Does their website ask you to also link your wallet like the op discussion, he said he would rather not do it, how about you?

I just saw my tokenpocket wallet there are tokens that are not clear, GFNC and PAL. I can't be sure where I got this from, GFNC and PAL TRC20 network. do you know about this token?

This is a new way for scammers to cheat is to send large amounts of tokens to wallets BSC, Polygon, Ropsten and so on, they hope the recipient connects to the wallet soon so that all tokens of value they will steal, better leave a comment in the comments tab on the address contract link so that other users know.

If we have announced a BSC or Polygon address and there has been a transaction then there is a chance to get free tokens, unfortunately the free tokens are a scammer's way to steal our assets so it is better to ignore it, there is nothing we can do with these tokens and for security then never open the site listed in the sender's wallet.
So far, there have been many fake tokens that automatically enter BSC and Polygon wallets, but the strange thing is that only happens to wallets that have already made transactions, not to new wallets or wallets that have never made transactions.
Yes, I also noticed that unknown tokens go exactly to those wallets that already have transactions. Moreover, the number of tokens is always a multiple of 10, or even 100. I actually thought that it was some teams of new projects that send their tokens as advertising. I also checked them by accounts and such tokens were not listed anywhere. I was not interested in them anymore. Now I will be more careful with them, especially since I will not open their sites.
Cryptocurrency scammers often play on the possible greed of the participants in this market.

I also have incomprehensible tokens in my wallet. It is better not to touch them, but first, find out what it is and where it is from. The tokens came somehow and I decided to withdraw them. They took a big commission from me. And only then did I find the information that it was fake.

I think, almost all BSC wallets that have made transactions have these coins. these coins look very valuable and make us inclined to sell these coins in their intended market. however, this is the type of scam that exists today. should be, we do not need to care about it is in our wallet. honestly I want to make it not in my wallet by sending it to another wallet. however, I chose to do nothing with the coins. there are very many types of such coins or tokens in my wallet at the moment.
Honestly, I never came to it across in the past, before it happened to me. This whole DeFi sector is filled with scams and phising attempts, I was used to such attempts throughout my journey in crypto, however, I feel like they are everywhere nowadays. Discord is filled with bots and scammers, while you need to be extra careful when importing tokens on Decentralized Exchanges (such as Pancake), and especially when dealing with wallets such as TrustWallet or Metamask.

I also received unknown tokens at BSC, Rinkberry and Polygon, it seems the scammer hopes that by sending the token he can hack our wallet, this is an old technique that has happened in ETH, and I once lost my token when I clicked on an unknown site, something that can happen What we do should be to create a new wallet and empty the balance in the wallet.

I thought it could be a phishing token where by transacting the token it opens access to your wallet. So far I have seen a lot of losing their assets even though they meticulously opened websites without being exposed to fake websites. My guess is that these fake tokens are another cause of their loss of assets. Usually I use https://app.unrekt.net/ to cancel signatures on a platform so as not to get fake tokens.

I suggest to be vigilant, don't be too easy to connect our wallets carelessly, there have been many cases like this and if there are tokens that you don't recognize then you should ignore them, this is the risk of low transaction fees that makes scammers want to steal our assets.

I'm usually using Yieldwatch to keep track of my yield results, however, its uptime was average the past few days and resorted to Growing.fi. I noticed that my Net Worth was strange looking, showing more than $500,000 worth of coins, which startled me. Upon further investigation, my wallet appears full of some sketchy looking tokens.

I check one of my addresses and I found out I have $14,652.525 worth of unknown MNEP token they are showing the wrong data because on https://bscscan.com/ address checker, this token is not present in my wallet and it's not also listed on both Coingecko and Coinmarketcap, it's a trap and you can get your account hack if you open using their application.

Every time scammers are always coming up with new tactics on how they will scam people. This is another of their tactics that they are now trying to use to scam a lot of people these days. So, you have to be very careful, and do not link your wallet to any of their websites,  because if you should link your wallet to any of their website, you would end up being scammed, and all the assets in your wallet will be cleared at once. So, I am just going to advise you to leave those tokens , and if there’s an option in your wallet to delete them, you can simply click on delete and wipe them out for good. Some greedy people are still going to fall for tactics like this.

Both my Ethereum and Binance Smart Chain has already received those strange tokens where I don't remember I've joined any airdrop with them but I think it came from those hackers who wanted to get some access to our wallet by luring us to their site and they will use the information we fill up on their so-called form on their website to hack us.
Just ignored mate. Nothing would happened, I think I got almost all of my wallets haha, damn these scammers they literally device an automatic send of spam tokens to any wallet that are moving or does make such transactions.

This is a new way to hack or scam people, they send fake tokens with a great value and if you are going to try to withdraw it, you have to connect with your wallet and this will put you on a bigger trouble. I have a lot of fake tokens as well since I do participate on Bounties before and I guess this is the main reason for that, if you put your address in public, you are expose to scammers and hackers.
Better way is to avoid transacting with tokens that we don't join any giveaways. For sure everyone knows if the tokens are fake or not or at least we've been interacted with. That's the problem with some newbies they thought they received airdrop and when they claimed it their funds gone connecting to a malware or some hackers software.

Thank you for all the replies, I was surprised that I received them at first, because I've never participated anywhere or published this address on any website or platform, didn't know they could actually find addresses otherwise, but guess what, they can.

They looked fishy, I've never participated anywhere, there's no chance someone is giving me free money. First thing I did was to search them up on BscScan, which showed no results, ringing bells inside my head that all of them is a mere scam attempt, I'll just ignore them from now on and try to stick with Yieldwatch, which actually filters these scam tokens.

After your accounts have become non-zero, different scams will come to you there. Do not go to these sites and do not install any of these tokens on your metamask and don't connect your wallet to their sites. No one under the guise of an airdrop will send you thousands of dollars for free. Personally I use Debank and I see hundreds of fishing tokens in my wallet and scammers maintain the price of the token so that their victim see a big profit.

There are plenty of fake/phishing tokens out there now. Be very aware.

I would suggest that you definitely don't take the chance. There is no free lunch and certainly no airdrop is going to be worth $500k.

Never connect your wallet to an app that you are not familiar with just because you want to access airdropped rewards.

There has been recent reports on fake tokens in wallets in recent times.  This is a  new development observed mainly on BSC network.  Scammer probably got the wallet address when one performed airdrop or some  other activity that requires submitting wallet address.  I also have these fake tokens in my wallets.  One thing I have observed is that they indicate the website of the Token in the wallet  - way of prompting you to use their App - which is very dangerous. They already know you cannot withdraw using pancakeswap. So they lure you to use their App. Any attempt to use their App might result in the loss of tokens in your wallet or some other scary outcome. It is better avoided. We hope there will be a way of removing these fake tokens from wallets in the future.

I've a lot of tokens now which usually be seen on binance chain network, these assets was somehow spamming and I couldn't figure out if they really gives legit profit to us. As per review mostly these coins has no trading value at all, and accusations raging over as I made research about them. Hopefully, this will be removed by the system and won't flood because I believed our wallets is vulnerable to potential hackers when this becomes rampant.

Better to avoid connecting your main wallet to any platform claiming that you can swap your unknown token values to a major pair. This scammy method is well known in the crypto field.
In meanwhile, try to check if those tokens you see have any trading volume in major exchanges. This just to let you make sure that someone is trying to scam you your savings in a deceiving way.

That's surprising, I'm not sure where my address got leaked, I don't recall anything suspicious to be honest, nor do I participate in bounty campaigns/airdrops.

Figured it was something fishy though, I hadn't signed up for anything, it's probably a trick for those who are active in the bounty scene, trying to confuse their fake tokens, I just don't get why Growing.fi is showing them, shouldn't they provide some kind of filtering for such tokens?

Maybe they just scan a blockchain and then randomly pick addresses and you are 'lucky' that your address have been pick up by this scammers. No, there's no such thing as filtering, every addresses are valid until it is being tagged.

So as what others said, do not do anything stupid to connect your metamask or whatever wallet you got because for sure this is what this criminals are waiting from you, to make that one single mistake.

This type of fraud is common in networks where the transaction cost is very low, since scammers need to make a mass mailing of their tokens. Since these tokens cannot be swapped to DEX, the victim goes to the scammers website and, when connecting the wallet, mistakenly signs a contract to debit coins from the wallet.

If you have used your wallet address somewhere then that means your public address have been seen and saved by the one who send the token.
That's surprising, I'm not sure where my address got leaked, I don't recall anything suspicious to be honest, nor do I participate in bounty campaigns/airdrops.

It doesn't have to be that way. They only need to use blockchain scanners and see which wallet has an ETH or BNB or other crypto balances then send.

No you cannot filter tokens coming to your wallet. Only thing you could do now is hide them.

This is intrusive spam, i personally ignore such things. On Ethereum, it is now an expensive pleasure, many spammers use the Binance Smart Chain network.

There’s no random test here and most probably you joined a bounty before or you posted your address somewhere else, just like on your Roobet campaign, your address can be seen on the sheet.

Well, that’s fake tokens OP and you can’t do anything about it just ignore it and live with it. Never try to withdraw it because its too risky and they might gain access on your wallet if you do it, so better not to try at all.

Figured it was something fishy though, I hadn't signed up for anything, it's probably a trick for those who are active in the bounty scene, trying to confuse their fake tokens, I just don't get why Growing.fi is showing them, shouldn't they provide some kind of filtering for such tokens?

This is a new way to hack or scam people, they send fake tokens with a great value and if you are going to try to withdraw it, you have to connect with your wallet and this will put you on a bigger trouble. I have a lot of fake tokens as well since I do participate on Bounties before and I guess this is the main reason for that, if you put your address in public, you are expose to scammers and hackers.

There are lots of scammer who will gather public addresses and send a token they created. You will be shocked to see that there's a value likr 30k in dollars. Quite suspicious right where you received a token worth a lot of money where you didn't participate or joined any or something. Better leave it there and don't touch it.

I'm usually using Yieldwatch to keep track of my yield results, however, its uptime was average the past few days and resorted to Growing.fi. I noticed that my Net Worth was strange looking, showing more than $500,000 worth of coins, which startled me. Upon further investigation, my wallet appears full of some sketchy looking tokens.

Their website prompts you to connect your wallet, but I'd rather not to, how did these appear? Why are in my wallet, and why is Growing.fi showing them and Yieldwatch isn't?
