🚨 New Crypto Scam Alert on YouTube: Stay Safe! 🚨
Hey everyone, I wanted to share a Binance News update to keep you informed about a new scam technique targeting cryptocurrency users, recently identified by Kaspersky. Here’s how it works:
💡 The Scam Setup:
Scammers post comments on YouTube claiming to have over $8,000 USDT in a Tron blockchain wallet. They make it look like a beginner's mistake, but it’s a well-planned trap.
The wallet is set up as a multi-signature wallet, requiring multiple approvals to withdraw funds.
📉 How the Trap Works:
1️⃣ Scammers lure victims (often greedy individuals) by sharing wallet access.
2️⃣ Victims send $TRX tokens to cover withdrawal fees, but those tokens mysteriously disappear into another wallet controlled by the scammer.
3️⃣ The wallet’s setup prevents direct USDT transfers, leaving victims empty-handed.
🔍 Key Observations:
Multiple accounts post similar comments, sharing the same mnemonic phrase to bait victims.
The low transaction fees (under $10) suggest this scam targets individuals seeking quick, illicit gains rather than sophisticated heists.
⚠️ My Advice:
Always be cautious of too-good-to-be-true opportunities, especially when strangers share wallet access. Stay informed, stay safe, and let’s look out for one another in the crypto community!
