Hello friends
My goal is to make this topic useful for everyone's friends in this forum.

Some time ago I received a telegram message, straight to the problem I asked for help to withdraw their funds in Exchange: https://btcflash.cc/  (https://btcflash.cc/)with a balance of 2.61BTC. They gave me passwords and users voluntarily. From here I have suspected this and I just ignored them.

This is message:
and this is the dahsboard exchange:

Hopefully useful, sorry if there is an error, please correct it.  ;)

Good thing that you didn't fall into their trap, because if you did, you would have certainly been scammed, or downloaded a malicious file onto your computer.

This is not an uncommon scam tactic. Usually they will approach you on some form of instant messaging service, telegram or discord seems to be the most popular. Then they will raise the fact that they have funds stuck in an exchange, and when you go and try to withdraw it they will either ask you to send them the payment upfront or ask you to install an application.

There are so many domains that have been used to scam in this exact same way that it's pretty much impossible to pin down who the scammer is, or to keep track. Just use your common sense and think if the exchange is legit and who in the right minds would give you their login details.
