Title: [Scam Alert] https://bitshumb.com/ Discord 'btc give-away' phishing scam Post by: xephek on August 19, 2019, 05:51:29 PM Received a dm in Discord saying I won some bitcoin. Website says you have to deposit bitcoin before you can withdraw your prize. Obvious scam. https://i.imgur.com/ZTZTn8v.jpg https://i.imgur.com/H3mZTEn.jpg

The linked bitcoin talk thread seemed a little light along with the user's other posts which are scattered over a few years. The topic was closed after a few heavily redacted replies. The linked website looked a little phishy (that icon...) so I went on over to good ol coinmarketcap and scrolled down to bithumb because I am slightly dyslexic and that kind of crap probably works more than it should. After finding that bitshumb is not listed on coinmarketcap I found this post here. No idea which discord I am in that I got this from. Probably the same one where all the different bots keep messaging me with pictures of girls in bikinis with half their rib cage photoshoped out and a bunch of sketchy looking links. :-\

I got alot of scam messages like this in discord ... I never send anything like that... Nobody is targeting anybody. We simply tag and flag scammers whenever we spot one.Your profile is the one that announced the scam scheme as you can see in the archived post so it makes the flag justifiable |
