🎸🔒 Metallica’s X Account Goes Rogue! 🤘

Metallica’s official X account got hacked, and the culprits rocked out by promoting a shady Solana token called $METAL. Claiming a fake partnership with Ticketmaster and roping in #MoonPay (who swiftly denied it), these #scammers. drummed up $3.37M in token value! 💰

📉 But, like a short-lived guitar solo, #Metal crashed to $90K in under three hours.

Metallica’s team cleaned up the mess, but the hack's origins remain a mystery. Guess it’s better to stick to rock and leave crypto to the pros! 🎤

Stay alert and don’t get played—don’t let anyone be the master of your wallet! 🤟

What’s the end game to this telegram scammer?

I got a random telegram message from someone asking if they could buy my old Coinbase wallet to use for a ICO project. I haven’t used the wallet in over 800 days (mostly bc there’s garbage on it). I didn’t see why someone would want to buy a wallet with no worth so i passed on his offer.

Later in the day he’s now offering some kind of scheme where he sends me crypto but then wants me to send half back to him. He would then send me more and I would send half back.

What’s the end game of this guy? I assume if I send back what he wants, it gives him some kind of access to my wallet?

Edit: I meant to click “advice” For the flair but somehow clicked “staking”. Sorry for confusion #BTC #scammers. $BTC

Identifying potential scammers in the cryptocurrency space requires vigilance and awareness of common red flags. Here are some signs to watch for:

1.Unrealistic Promises: Be skeptical of investment opportunities that promise excessively high returns with little or no risk. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

2. Lack of Transparency:Legitimate projects provide clear information about their team, technology, and goals. Scammers may avoid disclosing essential details or use fake identities.

3. Pressure Tactics: Scammers often employ high-pressure tactics, urging quick decisions without proper research. Legitimate investments allow you the time to make informed choices.

4. Unsolicited Offers: Be cautious of unsolicited messages or emails promoting investment opportunities. Scammers may reach out randomly, attempting to exploit unsuspecting individuals.

5. Poor Website and Documentation: Legitimate projects have professional websites, whitepapers, and clear documentation. If a project's materials are poorly written or lack substance, it could be a red flag.

6. Anonymous Teams: If the team behind a project chooses to remain anonymous, it raises suspicions. Trustworthy projects usually have transparent leadership.

7. Fake Endorsements:Watch out for fake endorsements or partnerships. Scammers may claim associations with reputable entities to gain credibility.

8. No Clear Use Case:Legitimate cryptocurrencies and projects typically have a clear use case or purpose. If a project lacks a defined utility, it may be a scam.

9. Unregistered or Unregulated Platforms: Ensure that the platform or exchange you use is registered and complies with relevant regulations. Unregulated platforms pose a higher risk of scams.

10. Community Feedback:Research online forums and communities for feedback from other users. If there are numerous complaints or warnings about a project, exercise caution.

Staying informed, conducting thorough research, and trusting your instincts are essential for avoiding scams in the crypto #scammers. #BTC!💰 $SOL $BNB $ETH

Cryptocurrency frauds include phishing scams, where fake websites or emails trick users into revealing private keys or login credentials. Ponzi schemes promise high returns but ultimately collapse, causing financial losses. Fake initial coin offerings (ICOs) and pump-and-dump schemes manipulate token prices. Additionally, malware and ransomware attacks target crypto wallets and exchanges. Staying informed and using secure practices can mitigate these risks.
Cryptocurrency fraudsters use various techniques:

1.Phishing: They create fake websites or emails resembling legitimate platforms to trick users into sharing sensitive information like private keys or login credentials.

2. Ponzi Schemes:Fraudsters promise high returns to initial investors using funds from new investors. As the scheme grows, it becomes unsustainable, leading to financial losses for participants.

3. Fake ICOs: Scammers create fraudulent Initial Coin Offerings, enticing investors to buy tokens of a nonexistent or worthless project. Once they've raised enough funds, they disappear.

4. Pump-and-Dump Schemes: Fraudsters artificially inflate the price of a low-value cryptocurrency by spreading positive information, then sell off their holdings, causing the price to crash, and leaving others with losses.

5. Malware and Ransomware: Malicious software is used to gain unauthorized access to crypto wallets or exchanges. Ransomware may encrypt user data, demanding payment in cryptocurrency for its release.

6. Social Engineering: Scammers manipulate individuals through social platforms, exploiting trust or creating a sense of urgency to persuade them to send cryptocurrency.

To avoid falling victim, it's crucial to verify information, use reputable platforms, enable two-factor authentication, and stay informed about common fraud tactics.

Shiba Inu Community Warned of DM Scams Targeting Telegram Users

Members of the popular Shiba Inu community are being targeted by scams on Telegram’s direct messaging platform. A recent tweet from the watchdog account Shibarmy Scam Alert warned users to be vigilant against deceitful actors posing as official affiliates.

According to the tweet, scammers have been reaching out to unsuspecting users via Telegram DMs, claiming to represent legitimate Shiba Inu organizations. Their aim is to extract sensitive personal and financial information or convince victims to send them money.

The scam tactics involve building trust through seemingly harmless conversations with Shiba Inu members before shifting to requests for data or funds. With profiles appearing authentic, users often comply without verifying identities. The team advised taking precautions before engaging unknown DM’ers about money or personal details.

Scammers targeting active Shiba Inu groups

Scammers have focused efforts within the Shiba Inu Ecosystem and Shibarium Tech Telegram groups, where engagement is high among SHIB investors. Victims likely own the dog-themed meme coin or related assets, making them prime targets. Losses can be sizeable if swindled into transferring coins or disclosing wallet keys.

To avoid Telegram DM scams, they recommended verifying identities by cross-checking website links and social media profiles. Users should exercise skepticism when messaged out of the blue, as legitimate entities rarely initiate unprompted chats requiring sensitive data or money.

The tweet also warned against sending funds based on investment claims made through DMs. Users should confirm purported opportunities through official channels before taking action. Reporting suspicious accounts helps protect the community by shutting down scam profiles.
