The Dentacoin Airdrop asking me to enter my private key of my etherium wallet (an hour ago) in order to automatically sign the special encrypted message that will verify that it is actually my wallet. And emphasizing that they will not send DCN Token to fake wallets. Also, they put a note saying: Note: This is safe. We DO NOT use, store or collect your personal data (such as private key). This form is fully encrypted and secured by the SSL standard and MD5 hashing protocol. No one will be able to access your wallet and you can update your wallet address.
I know this is a scam because you could just sign your wallet to prove it's yours. I'm worried to other 164k telegram users, i know other users might get scammed...
I really don't know how and where to report a scam airdrop.. please give me some advice what to do. thanks!

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the
subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The
subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

Theres no way to report a scam like this.There is a hoard od airdrops and bounties in crypto work and everybody wants to be rich without investment.These scammers know ppl will rush for them .All you can do is to create awareness for others and post this in their telegram group.

Unfortunately, in any way. But I think that the previous comment is very correct, you can only tell other people, from the friend to the duff send information

No, there is. Op can post/report scam project on Scam accusation thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0 Post all your proofs on there All you can do is to create awareness for others and post this in their telegram group.
Once you do that, the admin or moderator of that project will ban /kick you out from their telegram with FUD reason.

As torry said you can create a scam accusation about them.
Why not just expose that modus on their telegram channel? Imagine if they will continue this type of scam it's possible that they can fool few from that 164k members.
You can also create a thread on reddit since it's also a place where people are lurking about ICO's.
Are you sure that it's the real devs of dentacoin?

We all hate cheats, but deception is forbidden, and sometimes it is inevitable that you will be cheated.

I, nor the other members, can't post a message in their telegram channel since from the start. It seems the comment/reply section is disabled to members. They (dentacoin) are the only one posting infos. https://t.me/dentacoin_airdrop is the link of the telegram. and they have a bot, too which is the one asking for the private key @DentacoinAirdropBot Yes, it is very possible that they can fool a few especially that their bot is regularly reminding us to verify our account.

I think airdrop does not really matter if it's a scam. if bounty is a scam it should be reported to the moderator. because airdrop is only available for free. while bounty, we have to work to get coin

You should advise the people in the Telegram channel to run away for this airdrop. When someone asks you your private key, you can be sure is a true 100% scam!

there are lot of such scams and unfortunately we cant do much about these . you can post thread in scam accusation section but no scammer care of that . they do it on twitter / telegram / facebook / via referral links .
only way is beware of any project which ask your pvt key or something which creates doubt .

I can't advise the people in the dentacoin telegram channel to runaway because the comment/reply section is disabled from the start. It seems it was disabled intentionally so that no one could warn anyone what they are doing. All I could do in telegram is report the dentacoin channel that its a scam but until now it's still working.

Thanks for pointing it out. Asking for private is just wicked. I believe there are a few ICO rating sites to review them.

Well, this is the best way to report a scam airdrop, but it does not apply if you get an airdrop you mean outside the forum, like telegram and other social media. You can only tell other participants that the victim does not increase.

There is no way you can report an airdrop scam. But you can avoid it by doing research on that project. And I also recommended you ask for advice from the experts on this forum.

You can complain only in a group of telegrams, ask them to delete this message. Everyone should watch what data he sends. Personal key is not in vain so called)
