Post by: whotookmycrypto on June 05, 2019, 10:53:32 AM
We recently did an article on scams targeting Trezor wallet users. Since most readers here are experienced users, we have listed the scams covered by the article below to save you a click if you are already aware of them.

1. Fake Trezor wallets
2. Fake Trezor bridge software and apps
3. Fake advertisements and websites
4. Fake Trezor customer support
5. Fake Trezor jobs (not a typo)
6. Scams targeting other wallet users (eg. Ledger)

Also, happy to get any feedback / new scams to be added to it.

Thanks

Maybe you can try to add their official trezor (FAKE amazon shops) since there is still large number of people using their official amazon shop to buy trezor wallets and be aware such shops.

All in your list looks the same as what I see on google a little while ago.
So add my thread in your article to let them know about Punycode website from here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5152979

So that they are aware of fake Punycode website.

Yes, thanks for highlighting. We added it in our other article on Ledger wallet scams (https://whotookmycrypto.com/ledger-wallet-scams/) but forgot to include it here.
