⛔⚡🛑Beware of Ongoing Crypto Airdrop Scams! 🛑⚡⛔
Hey #CryptoCommunity 🌐
🛑We're here to keep you safe in the crypto world. With the rise of airdrop hunting, scammers are out in full force. Here's how they might try to deceive you:
🚨 They create a random mining app and market it aggressively, claiming it will surpass $NOT . Unrealistic promises and fake backing by $SOL or TON blockchains are their tactics. Then, they'll ask you to pay for premium features to "boost" your earnings. For instance, $3.60 to increase your mining speed by 10,000%, supposedly making you earn more than 80% of other users.
📊 Imagine they have 480,000 users, and 134,000 of them pay $3.60 – that’s $482,000 just from this scam! Another tactic is asking for $2.30 - $3.10 to transfer your worthless coins to your decentralized wallet, netting them an additional $560,000 - $800,000.
💸 These scammers might spend around $5K on marketing, paying influencers $2,500 - $3,500 to promote their project. One influencer can generate up to 10,000 referrals, leading to a viral scam.

Scam or Failure? 🤔
Many newcomers to cryptocurrency often confuse the terms "scam" and "failure." They tend to label any unsuccessful projects or launches as scams, which is not entirely accurate.
Scam refers to deliberate fraud with the intent of stealing your funds:
- NFT scams involving QR codes and links to fake websites.
- Invitations from fake accounts to private channels.
- Collecting money and then shutting down the project.
- Advertisements promising unrealistic returns.
Scammers frequently use the names of well-known projects to create fake ones, embedding drainers within them. Here’s how it typically works:
1. You connect your wallet to the site.
2. You initiate a transaction, which you can either accept or decline.
3. Upon confirmation, you unknowingly send your TON and other valuable assets to the scammer’s wallet.
The advantage of the TON ecosystem is that it clearly shows which funds will be debited. In other wallets, like MetaMask and Phantom, this transparency is not always present.
Cryptocurrency Security Tips:
- Stay informed and vigilant.
- Use a new or empty wallet for each project, without accumulated assets. Only keep small amounts for transaction fees or funds you are willing to lose.
- Learn to distinguish between a scam and a failure. In our chat, terminology is strictly monitored, and misusing these terms can result in a ban.
Examples:
- MINERALZ — a scam. The project's bot had a built-in drainer that stole millions of tokens.
- ONCHAIN — not a scam, but a failure. They distributed very little, the process was complicated, and it required excessive effort. This is not fraud, just unprofessionalism and a lack of respect for the community.

🚨🚨SCAM COIN ALERT🚨🚨
Coin name: 👇🏻
#BABYSLERF is a cryptocurrency involved in a large-scale scam, defrauding investors out of millions of dollars.
Promoted as the next big investment opportunity, Babyslerf lured in victims with promises of high returns and innovative features.
However, it turned out to be a classic "rug pull" scheme. The developers created hype through aggressive marketing and fake endorsements, driving up the coin's price.
Once enough investors had poured in substantial amounts of money, the creators abruptly sold off their holdings, causing the coin’s value to plummet. This left investors with worthless tokens and substantial financial losses.
Authorities and crypto watchdogs have issued warnings about #BABYSLERF, urging the public to exercise caution and thoroughly research before investing in new or lesser-known cryptocurrencies.
The scam highlights the need for greater regulation and vigilance in the rapidly growing digital currency market.
If you found the said coin in Social Media like X or somewhere don’t invest at all 🚨🚨🚨

Kinds of Crypto Scams and How to Avoid Them
Cryptocurrency scams have become increasingly prevalent, costing people billions of dollars each year. To protect your wealth, it’s crucial to understand the most common scams and learn how to identify and avoid them. Let’s dive into some of the key types of crypto scams.
1. Bitcoin Scams:
$BTC Bitcoin, being the first and most well-known cryptocurrency, is often targeted by scammers.
Phishing Scams: Hackers impersonate legitimate services, companies, or individuals via email or text messages. They try to trick victims into revealing private keys or sending bitcoin to the scammer’s wallet.
Avoidance Tip: Always verify sender email addresses and ensure that linked websites are legitimate. Bookmark trusted crypto sites to prevent accidentally visiting malicious ones.
2. NFT Scams:
Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) have gained popularity, attracting both newbies and experienced crypto enthusiasts.
Forgery and Fakes: Scammers create copycat NFT collections, sometimes stealing original art and cloning entire projects to mimic valuable ones.
Avoidance Tip: Research NFT projects thoroughly, verify authenticity, and be cautious when investing in trending collections.
3. Pump-and-Dump Schemes:
Scammers artificially inflate the price of a low-cap cryptocurrency (usually through coordinated social media efforts) and then sell their holdings at the peak, leaving other investors with losses.
Avoidance Tip: Be skeptical of sudden price spikes and do your own research before investing in lesser-known coins.
4. Fake ICOs (Initial Coin Offerings):
Scammers create fraudulent ICOs, promising high returns on new tokens. Unsuspecting investors send funds, only to discover that the project is a sham.
Avoidance Tip: Investigate ICOs thoroughly, verify team members, and scrutinize white papers.
5. Impersonation Scams on Social Media:
Scammers create fake profiles of well-known crypto figures or projects on platforms like Twitter or Telegram. They promise giveaways or exclusive deals in exchange for sending crypto.
Avoidance Tip: Always verify the authenticity of social media accounts and never send crypto to unknown addresses.
6. Malware and Wallet Theft:
Malicious software can compromise your crypto wallet, leading to theft of your funds.
Avoidance Tip: Use reputable wallets, enable two-factor authentication, and avoid downloading suspicious software or clicking on unknown links.
Remember due diligence is essential in the crypto space. Stay informed, be cautious, and protect your assets from scammers. If something seems too good to be true, it probably is! 🚀💡

I need a bot that automatically blocks anyone posting or especially promoting any meme coins. The ones that are 100% a rugpull are the worst. I block so many of these scammers, but oh my god there are so many of them.
And not only are there so many scammers, but also a lot of trash memecoins in general. How many are even out there? Jesus christ.

🌟 URGENT: Avoid Crypto Scams and Trade Safely on Binance! 🌟 $BTC $ETH $BNB
The crypto market is rife with opportunities, but it's also a playground for sophisticated scammers. Here’s an important and lesser-known insight to help you avoid falling victim to scams:
Critical Insight: Hidden Miner Malware
Something Not Commonly Known: Scammers are increasingly using hidden miner malware embedded in seemingly harmless software.
Disguised Mining Software: Some scammers distribute software that appears legitimate but secretly mines cryptocurrency using your computer’s resources. This can lead to decreased performance, higher electricity bills, and potential hardware damage.
How It Works: This malware is often hidden in:
Free Software Downloads: Especially from unofficial or suspicious websites.Browser Extensions: Even those that seem useful and legitimate.Infected Ads: Malvertising can inject mining scripts into your browser.
Real-World Examples: Websites like “Coinhive” used to provide JavaScript miners that websites could use to monetize their traffic. However, malicious actors also used it without users' consent. Although Coinhive has been shut down, similar threats persist.
How to Protect Yourself?
Use Reputable Sources: Only download software and extensions from trusted sources and verified developers.
Regularly Scan for Malware: Use reliable antivirus software to detect and remove hidden miners.
Monitor System Performance: Unusual slowdowns could be a sign of hidden mining activity.
Use Browser Security Extensions: Tools like NoScript or MinerBlock can prevent malicious mining scripts from running in your browser.
Specific Sites to Avoid
While many scam sites are quickly taken down, some notorious examples have included:
mybtgwallet.com: Pretended to be a Bitcoin Gold wallet but stole users' private keys.
Cryptsy: Once a legitimate exchange, it was involved in a major exit scam.
Mt. Gox: This exchange was hacked, leading to massive losses for users.

I got Scammed today by "TRADE360" and Its VIP scam, Telegram Channel!!🤬🤬🤬
I paid Scammer 95$ for a VIP membership and he kept for asking more money
First, he asked me 50$ charge for the VIP account, once I sent him he started asking for more 45$ for the BOT fee. when I sent him, he started asking more 75$ acceptance fee.
when I refused to pay, he started blocking me on Telegram. giving no replies to messages and no refund😭😭
Running -3000$ on Binance I thought TRADE360 will help me recover my debt. but the scammer added more 100$ to the debt.
now I am -3100$ on Binance.😭😭😭
And my 100$ is completely gone.
Please beware of these scammers.
If you are Subscribed to this guy unfollow him and block him.

I have reported him to Binance, but not sure if I will get my money back.

SHOULD YOU BUY BINANCE CLOUD MINING CONTRACTS?❓
Absolutely Not!! At the current presale price of $23/TH, it is a HUGE LOSS. 😡😡
e.g. if you buy $63400 worth of mining ⛏️, and BTC price reaches ~86400, you will only end up making a few dollars in profit! Meanwhile if you had bought the same amount in Bitcoin, your profit would be $20,000 USD!!
if $BTC is lower than 86k at the end of the contract (1 year) then your cloud mining will make a loss!!
So basically the only one making $$$ will be Binance at your expense! Look at the calculator in the image and check yourself 😞 There is absolutely no upside for us.

This is a story of a guy that fell to the scam.
"I fell victim to a girl posing as someone named Magi that I matched with on Hinge. She eventually convinced me to download the NDAX app and also needed me to sign up for steemgovdotcom. We were trading at first and she first got me about 70USD back the first time and she showed me how to withdraw it back into my bank account. We did video chats and she called me twice, while I was still super hesitant, she still convinced me to put in another $2950CAD overall. The steemgovdotcom website is fraud and doesn’t let you withdraw it back to NDAX now. It says I need to play a certain amount of yards to be able to withdraw. I have accepted my defeat, and I’ve just wanted to warn others.
BE very careful guys, lots of scammer out there.
On a positive note, $BTC and other alt coins are on the rise again today.
