[kheebl]

So i get this notification on facebook that I won 10,000 xlm airdrop, but to claim i need to have atleast 2,500 xlm in my account. Does this seem like a scam? here is the message. i tried to insert a pic but i can't figure it out.

It definitely seems like a scam.It's similar to this one, they ask you to deposit a sum of coins to be able to withdraw what you've earned, but they will most likely run away with what you deposit and never give the rewards, so don't do that.

If you want to add a screenshot, follow the instruction in the first reply in this thread: How do you upload a photo on bitcointalk.org?

Thanks I though so too. But I am new to this so I figured I better ask to see if maybe it’s legit.

It's scam. Perhaps the scammers are trying to get away of gaining access to your secret key when you open the link and fill it in as you are trying to log in

Any form that will ask me to fill my private key I consider it a scam site, we are educated not to give our private key to anyone, and until now it stands, remember Bountyhunters.io a bounty platform created a big buzz here for asking private keys to their users, they were considered a scam site until they do away with it, but they almost lose a lot of new users and clients.

It's more probably scam, because I never heard XLM spread notifications via facebook, if it legit it will spread from the official website and also will be spread by well-known media.

You are certainly correct mate, it is definitely scam. They will hype you that you are the lucky winners and yet before you claim the rewadrs you need to invest first, in that way you must be thinking, due to those scammers who use XLM was a god damn shit. Kama for them will surely throw back to them, never listen to their instruction anyway and ignored.

[jossiel]

Why you need to maintain at least thousands of XLM if you have won their airdrop? These airdrop things are becoming dead now and if they ask you to deposit first and they have given a certain for you to download just to claim the reward, don't believe them.

I'm not fully aware of what's happening with stellar but these kinds of airdrops and giveaways became popular first on twitter, the send first and send back style to scam people.

There is only one opportunity to get Stellar Airdrop right now, to pass KYC verification on blockchain wallet and you will get 25 dollars for doing that. Any other attempt is a scam and I am getting such e-mails five times per day.
