I've checked both address and none of addresses above haven't received any single penny which is no one get scammed fortunately.

This kind of fake giveaway or even ponzi (send your xx and get xxx return) shouldn't be ever trusted. Goodjob, OP

This kind of stuff will never die, scammer will find a way to dupe the noobs. You have to commend the effort they put into the graphic design down there but I digress, I thought that these celebrity doing giveaways have already died and that they are trying to find newer ways to do it. Good thing no one has fallen for it, if they did put more effort into their scam a little bit more, I think they will be raking in some dough. Good catch OP.

Actually things like this for me are commonplace, but it is true that newbies may look strange and promising so hunting scamer is like a noob.
We have to know that the giveaway now is nothing instant and also with the deposit first, therefore we have to stay away from this and the scamer will continue to make this site for more and don't know how much capital is spent which is clear in terms of fixed appearance same but different domains.
But I appreciate every finding and publish it here so that many people will know that this is a fraud.

Interesting to see that this thieves are using the name of "SpaceX" directly on their domain now.

What a cheap attempt to make new crypto users fool!

Unfortunately spaceX space ship was unsuccessful (https://www.economist.com/science-and-technology/2020/12/10/elon-musks-latest-rocket-launch-is-a-successful-failure) to land safely due to extra speed although they are saying that their test was successful. In a situation like this these scammers are trying to use the name SpaceX to attract people on their money stealing trap.
