According to these two address, it seems nobody gets trapped yet, But they are providing current transactions display that are totally fake. And there is a similarity with the  Fake Tesla Model S giveaway from "Elon Musk"  (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5249530)

As I saw the fake tesla model s giveaways has failed, they are launching this one to make people fool again, though I am not sure those are running by one, there is a more chance to be the same owner.  :)

Probably the same bad actors behind for sure. We all know that if one website is taken offline, they will create a similar clone to attack and scam people away.

I think check the domain's ip address and look at

https://www.virustotal.com/gui/ip-address/104.27.161.180/relations

And you will find that those addresses are being used maliciously.

I am clearly getting the smell of scam from this project where actually they are forcing users to send funds to their wallet. Most interesting thing is that entire project is a combination of Hyip & Airdrop. Users have to pay to verify their address and they will get 2x, 3x in return. How funny! As someone have already described that how they are using fake transactions on their web frontend to make visitors believe that they are providing honest service for their users.

Personally i believe scammers have much patience than investors and from that urgency they never give up. After getting caught with one project they don't shy or fear to create another. All their real intention is to steal people's money at any cost.

Like the scammers never give up to continue to commit fraud like this and spread by telegram bot even almost all telegram channels about cryptocurrency filled with this bot, maybe this way they think is still effective and there are still victims so tricks like this still continue like Elon Musk is still happening.

I'm sure users of this forum will never be fooled by their tricks because there have been so many reports, but the worry is that other users are still new to this.
