Attention, $USUAL token holders! If you're holding this promising RWA/DeFi asset, stay vigilant – a new scam is targeting investors. Recently, I received a suspicious email claiming to be from the "Usual Money Token Claiming Portal." However, upon investigation, there’s no mention of such a portal on the official $USUAL website or their verified X (formerly Twitter) account.

Red Flags to Watch Out For

The email contained a dubious link that was flagged as suspicious by the Scammer Checker tool.

No official announcements or updates from $USUAL ’s team validate the existence of this so-called portal.

Protect Yourself

Always cross-check information against $USUAL ’s official platforms before taking action.

Avoid clicking on unsolicited links or sharing sensitive information with unverified sources.

Stay alert, especially during holidays when scammers try to exploit the festive season’s distractions.

Let’s keep our investments secure and ensure we remain one step ahead of malicious actors. If you come across any suspicious activity, report it immediately to the $USUAL team. Remember, scammers are active year-round, so stay informed and safeguard your assets.

🛑 SCAM ALERT! Elon Musk strikes again! 🛑 😂

In a recent tweet, he recommended investing in Argentina, and guess what happened?
Some clever developers created a token called "Argentina"! 🤣 I mean, we've seen people make tokens based on Musk's tweets before, but this one takes the cake! So here's the scoop: the project currently has a market cap of over $560,000 and has pumped more than 10,000%. 📈

Now, let's take a moment to reflect. What do you do when you come across projects like this? It's pretty obvious: RUN! 💨 These tokens have no real utility or backing, and they're in no way connected or affiliated with Argentina. We're living in a wild era of cryptocurrency, my friends. Everyone is scrambling to create their own tokens and dump them on unsuspecting followers. It's like a scramble for the last piece of 🍰 at a buffet!

So, I urge you all to be cautious out there. Remember, not every opportunity that comes knocking is legit. Take a step back, do your research, and don't get caught up in the hype.

The creativity of scammers in the crypto world never ceases to amaze me. While it's amusing to see these token creations based on Elon Musk's tweets, it's also a stark reminder to be cautious and do thorough research before investing in any project. Don't let FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) blind you from potential scams. Stay vigilant and invest responsibly! 😎🚀

🚨🚨🚨 Heads up, everyone! P2P Scam Alert: My Bank Account Froze! 🚨🚨 Listen up, guys! 🔔

⬆️ So, check this out: One regular February day, I'm just chilling and snacking when I try to make a quick UPI payment. But guess what? Error messages start popping up like crazy! 🤯 I figure it's just a glitch and try again. Nope, same problem. Panic mode kicks in, and I rush to my bank for answers. Turns out, my account got frozen because of some shady stuff tied to non-legal funds. 😱

Digging deeper, I find out the ugly truth – I got caught up in a P2P scam. Someone I trusted for a transaction had some sneaky plans. They scammed a bunch of folks, and now, every account they touched got frozen. 😔

So, here's the deal: Learn from my mess and protect your money. NEVER, and I mean NEVER, deal with anyone who doesn't meet these criteria:
1. Make sure they have a great track record – aim for traders with at least a 50% completion rate and a whopping 95% completion rate.
2. Always, ALWAYS, double-check that the name on their bank account matches the name on their Binance account. It's a simple step, but it can save you a ton of trouble.

Stay alert, stay safe, and may your money moves be smooth sailing from now on! 🚀💰 If you dig what I'm saying, show me some love with tips! ♥️ #scamalert #StaySafeInTheCryptoWorld #Protectyourself #WIF🔥🔥 #BullorBear

Shiba Inu (SHIB) Community Targeted by New Sophisticated Scam

⚠️🚦#scamalert

Checking whether you are 'paper hand' or 'diamond hand' on third-party websites aggressively promoted on X is not worth it.

A new scam campaign that is gaining traction right now might be way more dangerous than trivial "double-your-deposit" airdrops and fake reward distributions from Elon Musk. Malefactors are exploring "fear of missing out," offering victims to check how much they would have earned if they were "diamond hands."

In early December 2023, scammers launched a number of websites that allegedly demonstrate the potential PnL of this or that Shiba Inu (SHIB) holder. Such websites are promoted as instruments to check potential benefits from the enormous volatility of some coins.

On a plenty of websites created by the same scammer group (their domain names are slightly different or created with homoglyphs), users are asked to authorize their on-chain wallets. On social media, bots are spreading screenshots with eye-catching hundreds of millions of "paper PnL." Needless to say, once a holder authorizes their wallet on the website, they might lose all of their funds in the blink of an eye.

Two aspects of this scam campaign make it more dangerous. First, it is promoted via official X advertising channels: Crypto enthusiasts see it with an "Ad" label in their newsfeeds.

As such, mainstream browsers block users from visiting these websites. Largely, the scammers are focused on meme coin holders: Announcements for PEPE, BOB, DOGE, GROK and other memetic cryptocurrencies were registered on X. However, some DeFi coins, including the likes of Uniswap's UNI and Convex Finance's CVX, are also used in scam advertising. The Shiba Inu (SHIB) price is sitting at $0.000008414, being 2% up in the last 24 hours.

Crypto Ponzi Schemes: Recognition and Consequences

In Florida, a man named Juan Tacuri has admitted to his role in a crypto Ponzi scheme that cost investors US$8.4 million. Tacuri, who is 46 years old, was the main promoter of the now-defunct Forcount operation. He pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit wire fraud and faces a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison12.

Forcount's operations, later renamed Weltsys, ran from 2017 to 2021. Tacuri and his partners promised investors that their investments would double within six months through Forcount's purported crypto trading and mining activities. However, in reality, this activity never existed. Funds from new investors were used to pay previous investors and to finance the luxurious lifestyle of Tacuri and his associates2.

Tacuri has agreed to forfeit nearly $4 million in profits and property obtained through the scheme as part of his confession. He is scheduled to be sentenced in late September 20242.

This case is a warning for investors to always do due diligence before investing, especially in highly volatile assets such as crypto. Ponzi schemes, which use new investors' money to pay off old investors, are an unsustainable practice and will eventually collapse, leaving many victims losing their investments.
