That's a slick scheme right there. Much more creative and technical than the give ETH for ETH that we see so much on Twitter. The old saying if its too good to be true it probably is comes to mind. Better off to just ignore the side noise and keep grinding out until you hit it that way.

Recently, i had met a guy on discord, he seemed like a chill guy, until i learned that he was a scammer, i didnt really care much since he didnt try to scam me, well until he tried to scam me "668a369e87c01da5bfca9851e6ee86d760e17ee7912d77b7dffe8e0cdf63bcb5" This is the msg he sent me one day, said it was an ethereum private key he "found" in his "old" hard disk Me, being curious checked it out on myetherwallet theres less than a cent worth of eth in it, so i shrug it off, but then i copy the address and check it on etherscan, it has more than 120k$ worth of tokens on it, never heard of the token before, but the price is posted by etherscan so cant be fake. i try to transfer some eth into it to get fees to transfer the tokens to my wallet, when i realise there are a suspicious amount of comments on that address, i check out and it turns out its a scam, he has a bot on that account transferring all dust that gets sent to that address to his main account (btw tokens are locked so you cant get em even if your fast enough) i freak out and send myself another transaction to cancel the previous one... thankfully i used low fees so it hadnt been confirmed yet ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) He had also multiple times tried to get me into scamming so i already disliked him for that, and since i completely hate him now- Crypto Lord#5440 thats his discord id please dox him if you can ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) haha you know sometimes it seems to me that it can't be an acciden that the words scam and scum are soo close in sounds ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) take care next time

thanks for the article and that warned! now there are a lot of mossins in the crypto market! The crypto market is very young, and there are a lot of newcomers here who do not understand anything! they are deceived! even if we look at the emergence of new projects, this year more than 3000 projects closed and deceived their investors!

Thank you for the warning, sweet scam as mentioned. Good that someone calls these people out like this, so you might be warned beforehand. Hopefully google runs its robots on pages like this! ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Yes, those people who came up with such schemes are very smart, especially when this Ethereum goes further to the wallets, but when we say that it is bad and tried to cheat, we are not better than takak we want to get these tokens.

i try to transfer some eth into it to get fees to transfer the tokens to my wallet, when i realise there are a suspicious amount of comments on that address, i check out and it turns out its a scam,
So it was a trap. But, why would you want to transfer those tokens to your wallet in the first place? They didn't belong to you. Even if you found a private key with a huge amount of Ethererum, they are not yours to claim.

Many scam projects here and there in the forum and elsewhere. You need to analyse the original team members on the website, WP contents and authentic partners. If you find all these things good you will be find the big profit on bounty earning or investing to it. However thanks to show the shit project here in light. It may helpful and make aware of it.

Someone showed his private keys to you and you check it out and saw some tokens and you tried to send the person token to your own wallet? Why do you want to steal someone tokens? To be honest, the both of you are scammer, If you are a good person, you won't have wanted to steal his tokens. People should learn how to be honest. #My opinion

Free cheese is only in a mousetrap! I would never check other accounts in the first place, as that means you tried to steal somebody's coins/tokens, I am disappointed to hear that, trying to transfer coins/tokens in to your wallet, that's not right! That means you have tried to scam somebody too and you deserve to be scammed, as that would give you a good lesson!!

Thanks for the warning. In the crypto community, something like a virtual arms race is happening - scammers are finding more and more sophisticated ways to take away users of their cryptocurrency.

Few honest people now, and it turns out that anyone could get caught on this bait. A new way to cheat, didn't know it was possible at all.

So you got scammed for trying to steal? Right. Sounds fair enough to me. Your own greed lost you that eth. Sounds like a Robin Hood scenario to me

You are upset because you tried to steal someone else's coins and were outsmarted by him? You are just as much at fault as the person you are blaming. If you hadn't been a greedy thief you would have lost nothing. Your own fault.
