They even have to fake Vitalik's face to look that this is real and authentic. But obviously, there's no such thing as ETH giveaway specifically coming from Buterin himself.

I already submitted a report to Google and hopefully it will be taken offline the sooner as not to victimised unsuspecting beginners. And thankfully the ETH address is still empty, meaning no one yet has send funds to this scammers.

Yeah. Scammers trying their best to trap newbies. They have created this website in such a way that newbies can easily believe it. No one has sent funds to them yet which is very good news, but the scammers are still promoting this scam extensively. If you check their Twitter account you will see how seriously they are promoting. I hope the newbies keep themselves away from such traps.

That means beginners have realized this that this fake giveaway from vitalik will be very dangerous, but I don't know whether in the next few days someone will get stuck or not because not all newbies know so let's report their site is down and not can be accessed again.

It's so stupid that a vitalic photo that is edited while holding a paper is a fool and the scamer just keeps trying to convince.
