I don't know where they get my Coinbase email address, they send me a welcome message and explained how to get in this giveaway, they use the name of Coinbase, BINANCE, UPBIT, OKEX, REMITANO, MERCATOX, INDER COIN, COINS.PH, COINBASE, YOBIT on their portfolio to gain people's trust. They use fake transaction history and fake medium chat history to trap you. They have designed their website in such a beautiful way that people who don't know well, it will easily fall into the trap of cheating.
Beware of such websites and warn others.

Yeah, probably the same people behind my report a week ago: [Scam]: Coinbase fake giveaway. (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5290552.0)

The good news is that it has been taken down already. the bad news is that scammers just re create the same website so let's report this new site that you have reported so that it won't victimized anyone.

Desperate scammers won't stop doing there bad motives whatever the situation is, what we should do is to let any users new or old to be aware of such schemes.
