The airdrop space is fertile ground for scammers. Honestly, anyone who does not have sufficient experience to secure himself and do his own research will inevitably have his wallet and assets drained one day. What the OP referred to is among the many very widespread phishing sites. If you look at the interface of the phishing site, especially those created for meme coins, you'll find them primitive and closely resembling the domain and the main website of the currency. This is because the memecoin sites do not contain an advanced or professionally developed interface, making them easy to mimic and allowing scammers for the creation of many phishing sites to trick airdrop hunters into connecting their wallets for claiming or staking to fall into the trap.Please report it to: https://safebrowsing.google.com/safebrowsing/report_phish/?hl=en I will now make a report using the provided link. Thank you. Title: Re: [Scam]: Fake Smog Token website Post by: TravelMug on March 05, 2024, 10:28:51 AM Criminals are taking advantage as this is one of the hottest airdrop right now.

Maybe there are a few genuine projects and you have to invest some to get the airdrop. But it's no longer 2017 where airdrop is the hype as everyone that time make a lot of money. Fortunately, it has been flagged already, https://www.talkimg.com/images/2024/03/05/yPhDW.png Good job by the OP as well for giving us the warning!!! |
