💥 You can be scammed by using you favourite project official links!
Project set their own "Official links" in various places:
- Official website
- Partners website, etc.
> So, when project change handle of their official Discord - the link to the discord changes and previous link becomes FREE to use!
> In that case scammers create a full copy of your favourite projects discord, and when you want to join project discord using link from their official website - you are directed to a scam discord copy.
> Rights after scammers ask you to proof your identity by signing few approval - which lead to all your fund being drained!
🤔 How to prevent yourself from being scammed?
> Never approve transactions you are not sure about
> Use empty wallet or wallet with a small amount of fund for suspicious interactions (never use wallet with all your fund on it)
> Use Security extensions, like PeckShieldAlert - which will prevent you from most of the scam cases.
Below (on the pic) you can see how many users where scammed due to #ALEO project changing their discord handle and not notifying their community about it (and not changing the link in their official sources)
