It's called phishing scheme, not just this wave website, Evey links we visit must be well checked before you open them, make sure it's the official link of the project or you will end up losing your money, passwords or datas

The best way is always booked marked those important browsers. I do hope only few got victimized by this scam. People should learn to stay away from giveaway sometime instead of earning maybe they are the one donating their valuable tokens or coins.

@OP thanks for the warning. I'm thinking should this be on this section? Or on SAA thread? I think mroe fitting there or BH since its a precaution to newbies.

lol really  ? they ask for private keys ?  what a shame . only noobs will fall for that poor scammy attemp  .

also noobs and lazy people will follow directly to the link without checking if the account if verified and came from the official company or not  .  havent seen waves on action for a while , so if there are waves giveaway like this is also questionable on my side and ill always investigate it first before proceeding but obviously not in a way to give my private keys to them  , legit or not  .

Thank you for the warning.

These phishing sites and fake twitter accounts still managed to get victims. I think these scammers will never stop, they just jump from one platform to another platform. Just like what they're doing on YouTube channels that they hack.

The most important part has been said, don't entrust or give your private keys to anyone.

Yes. Scammers are coming up with new scamming idea everyday for scam. The victims are newbies who do not know about such scams. Scammers must use more popular coins and exchange names to scam. Because when you see the name of the popular platform, everyone is easily believe them.
Yes, that's their tactic and sadly, too many newbies are falling for that.

As much as we're wanting to help these newbies get away from these, there are still those that don't listen to our warnings and what we're telling them to avoid such too good to be true giveaways and obvious scams.
