What happened:
Well, we know that the market is in a bull run, so we have to be careful because now more and more scammers are constantly looking for loopholes with Twitter domains, they fake it with fake giveaways.

so stay alert, don't be too ambitious when you see a giveaway that doesn't make sense.

With so many of these happening lately, i seriously double anyone is falling for it.
Did you check the address to see if there's any ETH/BTC being sent?

Scamers Address:

Code:
ETH 0x823E0Fa4051f9639aa01c01BFD659Dc9a0907555
BTC 15Lisns4JdwaG8XqKBowxWY8dqt2YtpDwZ

No balance is sent to the wallet and it is just fake traffic in the transaction.



One more site with the same appearance but different domains and addresses.

Scamers are increasingly making like this and only with domains only.

I found another one with the similar UI and look.

Ethereum address:

XRP address:

Probably the same bad actors behind, we don't know, maybe some newbies are going to still fall for this trap, who knows. That's why they keep on creating this kind of malicious websites.

The new domain has been captured.
This is a medium site, I see a lot of lumprah things and scamers are spreading everywhere, but I will publish it here.

Fake Giveaway.

USDT - 0x35dF56e7fd1883F71226eB86eb6C8Ff5b36466F9

Tricks like this are common, but I need to remind beginners to be careful and verify before you get stuck into this scamers pool.

I think scam attempt by Twitter is now very old methods and most of us know it. As you see their address is empty, which means they are failed to raise funds. When someone will click on that Twitter account then they would realize it's a fake account. But still, I am worried about greedy newbies, they aren't familiar with that kind of trap. The problem is there are fake replies as well by scammers. And most likely newbies would believe in them and that's how a few newbies losing their funds.

Anyway thanks for the warning, hope at least our forum users would avoid that scam attempt.

I am forced to say that nothing has left to use by scammer to make a scam in crypto. Still we can not guess what will come in next. Only self aware can save us from these scammer.
In this year Facebook, twitter, medium, YouTube etc in these platform scammers were so active to make people fool. Maybe something new will come soon. we have to prepare about it and we should not believe something by first vision or blindly.

the only crime here is that people will fall for anything, it's just sad, how none of these "Victims" can do a simple google search. Oh i quote "Victims" since it's usually people who spend all day looking for cents to collect, they're basically human bots.

Maybe this thread can also help a little and they understand how to make themselves aware of the stupidity that these scamers do to us.

Now social media is often used to spread news or airdrops that are not clear because we know that we are active almost every hour on social media so keep using it wisely and avoid it if it doesn't make sense we need to know, with self-awareness we can save from this foolishness and you will remain safe from being trapped.

Yeah indeed this method is very old but scamers keep repeating it again until something really falls on this device, even every time I find this kind of fraud and always check their wallets as a result the funds are still empty that means no one sent or got caught in it. this is but the stupid thing that scamers continue to do with tricks in this way even I just think this is just an old trick that maybe beginners also know.

But not all, still we have to give a lot of awareness to them until they really understand and distinguish it from the real thing, the important thing is that no one becomes a victim anymore, let alone they complain about it in this forum.

when it comes to service like Paypal, things escalated quickly.
Seems both of these domains mentioned in OP has been suspended by hosting service. (There is the identical message, probably the same owner of both domain)
I see there is paypal word in the domains, I guess it's enough to be suspended. Paypal as a high reputed worldwide service does not allow any attempt to abuse using their name.

Fake Twitter reappeared under the name Elon Musk no matter how they would spread it in scattered telegram groups.

What is clear is that this is a trick that is done by Scamers.
I suggest still be careful and verify first.

After Tesla has invested in bitcoin 1.5 billion USD, the scamer is now changing the name to Tesla, but the trick remains the same as before, but I will not be bored to keep reminding, especially for beginners who don't know, especially with good news about Tesla. then we need to be careful with these scamers.

Recently, BNB has experienced a very big pump but there are always scammers who continue to cheat with fake giveaways and it is the same as the previous trick.
It's just now using the name Binance and CZ as giveaway names.

Still don't be tempted and be careful.

Fake Twitter: https://bintweets.com/
The tweet on this website looks like an original tweet, however, are scammers doing extraordinary things? In my view, scammers are doing. Because when realized they couldn't hack the binance twitter account, then they created a website like the twitter, so that people could be easily deceived.

It is old but it is working really well, as far as I know Twitter has got some of the biggest concentration of idiots on the Internet and they have communities for each other so there is no surprise that there will be users that will still be falling for this kind of scams. It is a good thing that there was no money on that address or there were any sent from it but that address is just one of the many that gets money, some other giveaways are still getting victims.

Maybe by hacking into the Twitter account Binance scamers are not able to be the only way is to imitate it as closely as possible to make it look like it.
For me this is a common thing and now I don't find any giveaway that I have to deposit first even though there are only doing a few tasks to get it, so once you have to deposit first it is a trick of the scamers.

Scamers Address:

Code:

BTC 15Lisns4JdwaG8XqKBowxWY8dqt2YtpDwZ

Good that these two wallets are still empty, people are learning now, but these scammers will not stop they are fully aware that many people are coming in and these are newbies who are easily deceived by these airdrops, but we just keep on exposing these scammers, so we can save these newbies.
