Hi All
I just came across this Game Chaingers project in the altcoin discussion section. Somebody mentioned that the project is from UNICEF and it aims to collect funds by ETH mining on visitor's computers. I tried to search about it on internet and you will actually find a video posted on UNICEF France YouTube page, asking gamers to visit their site and help mine some ETH for donations. Upon a bit research I found that the Youtube page was fake, even though it has all those videos relevant to UNICEF. It was pretty simple to find this scam and my steps can probably help you identify such scams in future.
1) Visit the Unicef France official twitter account (verified):
https://www.youtube.com/user/unicefenfrancais2) Visit the site linked there.
3) Go to the bottom of page and click the youtube icon.
4) You will get this youtube page:
https://www.youtube.com/user/unicefenfrancais5) The Youtube page given on these news sites is a fake one, even though it has more subscribers:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgC7E2YoTgUytC5IdFScqfQ6) Also the site where you can mine cryptos for UNICEF is not a sub-part of UNICEF website, but entirely different site.
https://www.chaingers.io/en/index.html7) Clicking the Unicef logo on this site does not take you to UNICEF's site.
So please don't support or promote this project.
P.S. I have already mentioned in the original topic that this project is a scam. The only reason I am mentioning it in this section is for more visibility, so that people are more aware of such scams.
Regards
