Beware of any mining offers on Twitter that tells you to connect your metamask for daily reward its all a trap to steal your tokens or assets you store in your wallet, there is no cloud mining or whatsoever mining that will requires you to connect your metamask for daily reward, true mining is only real through the following

Asic Miner, CPU and Graphic cards (GPU).

Scammers are everywhere and most of them are using social media to trick people, am not really the type that believes in minning which I will receive message on social media like Twitter or Telegram, which they will send a link and you will be asked to connect your wallet, whenever am asked to connect my wallet, I always make sure the website is from a legit source because after connecting your wallet its very easy to move your funds.

Don't do any stupid thing when there's someone sending a link through a private message on any of your social media accounts.  Verify and have DYOR always so that you can avoid these possible problems.  I used telegram and I have encountered there the same problem with the OP, I always got a private message but I never open it if there is a link sent from an unknown source.

This is very common in cloud mining which is offer you a good return, but I think people have learned and didn't fool with this which is very common back in 2017.

Lots of people are still falling victim for the scam, this happen mostly on Telegram, whenever you make a complain in a public group, scammers will start changing their names to admin and claiming to be a customer support which they will ask for some of your details and they will send you link which some will ask you to connect your wallet and some will ask you to input your details, the best thing is that you don't even open the link and then you should just report and block the scammer.

I don't like people, this is why I will never give any strangers attention through Twitter, Facebook or Telegram, people don't have your best interest at heart their attention is always aiming for something they can derive from you easily or by force, im not saying that I can't get scammed but it won't be through fake links or fake mails, still we all gotta be careful.

It’s not just in Twitter alone, but popular platforms such as Facebook, LinkedIn, Reddit, etc. These scammers don’t care which platform are they targeting as long they can victimize and deceive the user by making them fall into their trap. And the scary thing is that the scammers are now more intelligent than ever. You know why? If their methods don’t work, they will try to create new strategies over and over again for the sake of scamming people. I have encountered that a lot, but they can’t penetrate my mind that easily.

Twitter, Facebook, telegram...Sad to say that social media now is already a den of scammers. We can deal with these scammers by simply ignoring them and spending no time talking/chatting with them. They will certainly be sending links as one of their strategies and once got fall into their tricks, we're done.
That is why we should be cautious in clickings links especially if this is coming from an unknown person or stranger, this is most likely a trap that makes us regrets it.

Thanks for the notification. Luckily, I've never gotten any offers for mining via Twitter so this could be good advice for newbies out there to be careful about linking their Metamasks. If they want to mine, it's better to use a graphics card or with ASIC or even a CPU, but that will depend on how much mining speed they have. The scammers will always try to look for their new target from social media, which makes us really cautious about their offers and always double-check the information.
