Comrades, I need your opinion. I signed up for an airdrop from the DFINITY project, which promises to send coins for an amount equivalent to 100 CHF. At the same time, they ask to participants to pay $ 9 for the passage of KYC. It seems to me that this is a fraud, but what do you think? Can the project require money for the passage of KYC and should I do it?

I thinks this is another kind,ponzi airdrops this DFINITY project,in other words this is deceptive or fraudulent kind of project,because based on my experience there's no one kind of campaign that asking a payment in order to regain a rewards coming from airdrops campaign,thats why its better that you stay away from that airdrops campaign,because i can assure you theres nothing you can gain this kind of project is only loosing your capital.

As far as I know, this money ($ 9 per participant) is required by the team to pay the work of mediators involved in the KYC procedure. At least such information I found on the Internet. To pay or not it is your choice, but I would not do it.

I refuse to do the airdrop project that requires KYC. Why? The airdrop is given free of charge. And there are also projects that will cheat your KYC information. Everyone is still away from the KYC airdrop project.

Too risky, airdrop who only get $ 9 just for KYC. not worth it. Our identity is more important than $ 9.

KYC it now looks like they want to make it so that people completely verify themselves networks, but you do understand that this is a nasreshunie personal life on the network, it's not right this should not be.

You shouldn’t give your valuable data it’s really risky you are not knowing who is going to use your identity also paying money for airdrop is joke . Airdrop name only suggest it’s free money so never get trapped for this .

I did the KYC for the Dfinity airdrop because I think Dfinity actually has some potential. I was a bit hesitant too about the $9, it said it was a "processing fee for compliance costs". Seems like they are trying to be very compliant (though US citizens and residents are not eligible for airdrop). I went for it. Then after a day or so I received a refund of the $9 and a message saying this:
"Due to large amounts of fraudulent activity, we were required to issue refunds to some airdrop participants who used credit cards to pay their processing fee. Unfortunately, due to an abundance of caution, legitimate participants were also issued temporary refunds during this process."
Finally, after a couple weeks they notified me that they were done investigating and that they determined I was legitimate (duh). But they said because of the what happened I would still receive the airdrop but not have to pay the $9 compliance cost fee.
Interesting situation, but my take is that the fee has something to do with them trying to ensure they do things as legal as possible. I have a pretty good impression of the project...but who knows....

This case should not be tolerate for it was clear that they asking money from you guys. And don't give any even a single cent. Leave the aidrops and search for other. What is the purpose why they ask you $9 ?

Why would they need your money to verify your identity? It's bs and even if they are legit you shouldn't want to deal with someone who does the kyc that way. Wouldn't be surprised if they decide to sell your identity in the future

I received an email yesterday 19th August that kyc date extended on Coinlist and i should sign up apply for kyc and pay USD 9 for verification. I tried to contact DFINITY telegram group admin confirming this. He asked me to PM . I send him personal message but he didn't reply so far. Seems to be a scam. Why admin can't reply me in group and ask me to send personal message. I am not going to to claim this Airdrop. They collected our datas, now wants our IDs and on the top of it USD 9.

It's like selling your information to others. They may use your information for malicious purposes and may endanger you. Be careful and consider carefully if you want to overcome it

yes it's a fraud why you need to pay for the free money you also want to receive. If you will donate the money you are helping them to collect money from you and other members , so I suggest to forget about this airdrop and find other legitimate airdrop that will not also ask for KYC verification .

And they are abusing KYC in this market for their evil purpose

in my opinion, all faucets and the airdrops that require kyc should not be done at all, even if they are not all scams, why put our documents at risk by giving them to unknown companies for a few pennies?

I recommend you stay away from airdrops that ask for KYC, because they will sell your information or do some evil work. It is really insecure for your information, in this market you should only do KYC at the top exchanges, it will ensure your safety.

It can't. KYC is not required for airdrop as long as that doesn't force you to register on its platform and it's also asking the participants to pay some money to receive their airdrop is a sign for a scam airdrop. i hope you can avoid dealing with this garbage airdrop

It was obvious mate it was a fraud, as you said it was an airdrop but why do you need to pay $9 to pass in their KYC? that was ridiculous you should avoid participating in that fake airdrop your data are more precious compare to that few coins/tokens. the legit platform doesn't require any fees to pass the KYC. you only need to submit the required documents to pass nothing more nothing less.

How much will be the reward for this airdrop? Is it big like 1k USD cause if not then its not worth it. Why do they insisting to have KYC for such giveaway hence you did not pay any investment for such product which states the purpose of KYC. For me you should not pursue this airdrop chances they can use your details is high, I know its a legit project but given the circumstances would you choose to have that risk?
