If you are a crypto user and wants to use online wallets, you need to make sure that you are in the legit sites. Scammers will always find a way how to lure the users using similar domain names.

If you are a crypto user and wants to use online wallets, you need to make sure that you are in the legit sites. Scammers will always find a way how to lure the users using similar domain names. We can't really tell if there are users who already fall for this trap, but what worry us all is that the website is still up and has the potential to trick new users. And there are still more scam sites out there: Code: http://thetatokn.org/ And obviously, same actors behind. And I will assume that they have the this scam kits on their hand that's why it is very easy for them to create this sites.

Code: http://thetatokn.org/ And obviously, same actors behind. And I will assume that they have the this scam kits on their hand that's why it is very easy for them to create this sites. No doubt that all these sites are running by the same group of scammers and after revealing the truth of their one project they move to another one. Its interesting to see that this guys have good experience of choosing domain names for phishing sites. All these domain have been taken just by dropping one letter everytime.

I think, We don't need to wait much more to see a native using of Cryptocurrency. Already some school, collage accept fee by bitcoin. If all country accept cryptocurrency like native currency then government will take step against this type scammer.
I am waiting for that day. Title: Re: [Scam]: Fake Theta Wallet Post by: 409H on July 12, 2020, 03:28:08 PM By pivoting the infra, we have found many more of these: https://twitter.com/search?q=theta%20from%3Acryptophishing&src=typed_query&f=live
