Another website offering similar Giveaway:
Code:
http://xrp-promo.club/

Someone shared this medium link on twitter saying something like "another scam, don't fall for it", the tweet has been removed (but I already copied the link):
https://medium.com/@ripple7thanniversary/7th-anniversary-xrp-giveaway-95e3e9b00626



Old tactic but still, someone might fall for this.

I just found another https://www.rippleinsights(.)tech.  Promising 10X returns for ripples you send to them.

I've seen these exact scam layouts/formats when it comes to other coins, some LTC, BTC, ETH, BNB versions of these scams, and they'd post below popular's people's twitters in a desperate attempt to scam some people. They post something like "sorry for the recent drama, here is a giveaway for my special followers".

The worst part about is that they often find victims, I checked their wallets for some of their scams, and I saw over 30+ eth in most of them.

Some people need to grow a brain.
