Post by: arwin100 on January 07, 2021, 02:34:10 PM
What Happened: This is related to the topic I created about fake giveaway which is the real intention is to do a phising scam to their potential victims.

Same modus tagging users and tell that they won or lucky to get the bonus ETH.

Facebook Page Link: https://www.facebook.com/Trust-wallet-giveaway-100193372045648/

The case is the same as what I caught before, they called TrustWallet as a container to attack the victim.

Never get involved in this fake giveaway and definitely don't give out your phrase and private key.

Provably this one is created by the same person, so this mean that people should really take more precaution about this since the attempt is frequently happening and now we are in bull run I'm sure they will double their efforts to scam people.

Edit: while browsing on social media I saw an innocent person inquiring on how he can get the giveaway mentioned by the scam page.

This mean it really caught the attention of the newbies and can possibly scam them.

Now a lot of different popular project names are being used on social media to scam crypto users through fake giveaways. Trust wallet is one of the most popular wallets at present.

So the reason their name is used by scammers is that the user they have may get wrong information, especially new users will fall into some confusion. Everyone should expose them as soon as they see all these fake giveaways, so that their purpose cannot be achieved.

New users will certainly be confused seeing fake giveaways like this, because they don't have a broader insight into this, where we find fraud, we have to tell it, especially in social media that we often use, therefore if you have expertise in research then It needs to be exposed here so that many people understand how to distinguish between real and fake.

Famous wallet names will definitely be a weapon and will spread the phishing they create to new user victims.
maybe we are not new but new users will look strange.

Many new users has been brought up in cryptocurrency especially when TWT(trust wallet token), Defi airdrop + bull run happen recently and provably once they see this they might get caught thinking that they won a certain amount of ETH, and this is really dangerous for newbies since they might lost all their balances in a single mistake by providing their details in this fake giveaways.

Just found another phishing site in Facebook ads that are asking for recovery seed of trust wallet. Just listing the site here for the record. Anyone shouldn't click or enter the recovery seed into this phishing site. Here is the website address in the code of scammer.

Code:
 https://trust-safemoon.web.app/win/ 

The scammer is always around us, just need to use our common sense to save our crypto assets and don't be greedy. Sorry to bump this thread, this thread was a fist in my search.

Really Appreciated your work, although facebook page not found. Maybe Facebook authority delete that page due to Reports & violence. I guess this Isn't an official page but a new one which was crated to scam people! What a cheap thoughts.
Its okey to participate giveaways  but Sometime it makes me wonder when i see anyone asking for our private key. If any company/project announce giveaway then why should they need our private key! They can send us without that right?! But alas, new people lost their fund through those scammers
