Title: Airdrop invitation
Post by: wibawa on November 05, 2018, 05:51:04 AM
Lately there have been a lot of invitations to join the Airdrop program, they spread through social media and e-mail, until many wonder whether this program is true or scam?
The question is whether this program is part of the marketing strategy so that there is a crowd in sales? or just giving away prizes to get many participants who are interested in joining this program?

Maybe sender wants to get more refs via email marketing, but my advice for you: abandon links were inserted in emails to against malware to protect your wallet safe.

I wonder who is spamming me with bundles of airdrops invitation emails from unknown source, I have realized they are not real because I've done some and I didn't get anything and now I delete them immediately they come in and block their email to stop further spamming. They are just stealing people's information

I got many invitation emails to join in airdrop but I never responded. Most airdrop is scam and worthless. Be careful before partitioning in airdrop.

I believe that most of Airdrop is a scam and very rarely come across good projects so you should not pay attention to their advertising.

If you get several email about ref airdrops
Then it means you have participated in one or more scam airdrops
Which has your information and they use it to spam your accounts

You should be careful what links you click

An airdrop usually is part of the marketing and what's the purpose of marketing? to gain sales and gain more exposure.

They won't just give rewards without anything to benefit but usually most of the airdrops now are scams. They will ask you to pass KYC so they'll have info and IDs you own which is benefit that I'm talking about and that ends up as a scam. Don't exchange your info with useless coins.

it has a higher chance of being a scam. you have joined previously in airdrops and many of that airdrops are scam and now they sell your email or any of your information. or they are the owner of the previous scam airdrops and they create a new scam airdrops and send you an invitation. if it is your friends or someone you know send you an invitation link maybe because they want to earn more referral or they just want to scam you. better not use your own personal email and just create a dummy or secondary email and don't link it to other email.

I usually get over 100 emails daily regarding airdrops  from ridiculous email addresses
But I do not worry or panic

I follow emails from airdrops.io and others
And more interestingly I have a good eye for proper airdrop forms
So I rarely engage myself in ridiculous airdrops

Just disregard ref invitations and never underestimate exchange projects or health projects

Almost all of the Airdrop emails sent are fake, either identity theft or Phishing. Every day dozens of mail comes in this way. I'm sick of throwing them into the Spam, but they're not tired of sending it by new mail.

You have just hit the nail on the head,  the major point behind an airdrop is to create awareness,  allow influx of people to populate the social media news and all. But it has never been the best strategy for organic growth... People are getting wiser

many interpretations about it all, you yourself have to do research after they spread information about the airdrop. how it works, you judge whether it's fraud or not

When I receive emails from people unfamiliar to me, I just do not open them. I immediately send them to spam or delete them. And I recommend you not open more from some sort of airdroup groups.
