The Sophisticated Scam Schemes

- Even tools like @bubblemaps might not detect these scams due to the clever use of bots and identical wallet transactions.
Key Red Flags to Spot
- Low Activity: If a token's PumpFun page has little to no genuine interaction, be wary.
- Bot Comments: Watch out for comments filled with meaningless phrases, often posted by bots.
- Suspicious Wallets: Scammers often use wallets that were just topped up from centralized exchanges or mixers on the day of the token launch.
Stay Vigilant & Protect Your Funds

- Use this knowledge to navigate the memecoin landscape safely and avoid becoming a victim of rug pulls.
