All airdrops are ponzi schemes?

[Btc_1856]

I think just avoid the Airdrops those who want us to download the wallet because most of them are the scam. If they ask for MEW address then it is good to share because you won't find Virus in it. So be careful while dealing with these Airdrops.

Yes they are ponzi schemes. They made token out of thin air and hope to find somebody that dumb enough to buy from the market. That's free money for them. Zero cost, full profit.
Most of these airdrops also collect e-mails and sell it to spam services. That's why you get millions of spam ICO mails every day.

I don't think all airdrops are ponzi schemes because my friend had join a airdrop and not got scheme,you can get free coin for free for joining airdrop ,maybe ICO are scheme but not all, thats why you need to choose wisely , so you don't regret it.

Well I would avoid installing wallets of nay kind (except the major ones)  and if then only on VM with separate internet connection id you have the possibility.

Same here i dont easily download any files or wallets that they do require specially on airdrops.This is why i do pass on those kind of airdrops because it is actually a risky thing to do yet you wont know that some of them do have accompanied with malware or virus inside which would really compromise your important informations from your pc once you have already downloaded it.

I never download airdrop wallets when i still not check virustotal. I see the feedback of the members atleast full member that have downloaded before. I don't believe what people say about what they do.

Once my antivirus or windows defender would block such file then I wont really proceed on downloading that thing.Same as yours I do only download a thing if there are lots of people who testifies that the file is safe or just a false alert.Im not seeing on the rank on those people who do said such thing but mostly I do see on how many do testify that it is clean then that's the time I would decide to download.Airdrops are not totally Ponzi schemes unless if you do see their system on how they do distribute their coins and as long you didn't invest on it then I think it should be fine.

You should really put this thing on your mind which we should really need to have safety measures before downloading anything in the cloud.One mistake then you will surely compromise your safety regarding on your valuable information which is stored on your pc.If you do value your coins and security then doing this thing wont really cost a leg. Always scan and do safety measures as possible we can to lessen the risk on losing money.

I agree and I think that would need a own thread to give some advice about security!

no airdrops are not ponzi or sccams because they are actually giving out free tokens or coins but most of them are just shitcoin and shit token without any reasonable value on the markets yet airdrops are legit compared to ico's becauuse most ico  these days are scam and would not pay you even if they promise. but overall you need to do some research first in order to save your self from falling in to wrong hands.

Not all airDrops are ponzi Schemes there are lots of airDrop running around. AirDrop are giveaway coins, free coins it is worth participating on it, because its free money and even if it is not success its ok because it doesn't waste your effort cause its effortles.

I think just avoid the Airdrops those who want us to download the wallet because most of them are the scam. If they ask for MEW address then it is good to share because you won't find Virus in it. So be careful while dealing with these Airdrops.

It is really very necessary to be careful with just downloading anything most especially if it has to do with wallets.

If it is not a web wallet or they aren't an ERC20 token making use of ethereum wallet like you said, then the best thing is just to stay away from it as plague even if they seem promising or legit cause it is a whole lot of risk to take as far as I am concerned.

Sometimes I just usually trust my instincts even more than my antivirus. Although, just like you said, if you can get a certain confirmation of the safety of the wallet, then it might still be a go. Might because it is still not worth the risk of mistakenly installing something I am not guaranteed anything most especially when I have a multi currency desktop wallet on my PC.
