Clever trick, and thanks for the fair warning and we also wish that no one will be a victim here.

Each day they are getting more crafty and cunning in finding ways to swindle people of their funds, hopefully on the other side of the spectrum, people fighting this problem is getting equally crafty and cunning too. The only problem left for us is to inform the masses about the rise of this schemes and hopefully it will reach the right person that might become the victim of this kind of schemes. Nice catch OP, I want to start looking for this kinds of website too but the problem is I am still saving to buy a better phone, I am still using a shitty relic.Title: Re: [Scam]: Phishing Ripple website then redirecting to fake giveaway Post by: TalkStar on November 03, 2020, 06:52:08 PM Ok so criminals just got another method here, they replicate a ripple.com domain through cryllic attack, but then will present themselves with this kind of fake giveaway and there could be some that will think that this is legit enough and deposit some in hope that they will double their money.

Even they are using the same frontend for most of their websites. Few month earlier XRP authority have requested youtube to remove all fake XRP giveaway related content from their platform and after that this scammers are changing their domain on a regular and keeping the trap active for cryoto users.

Because XRP is really doing great in the market, we will see more of these phishing sites. I hope users will validate the legitimacy of the site before making any action from their end.

So criminals are having a field day and taking advantage of this to trap noobs again to this scheme. |
