Every free money advertisement or announcement should be dealt as a scam.
Hardly someone is going to give you free money.

1500 bat is about 400 USD. Who would give 400 USD for everyone who update their software?

If people don't have minimal common sense they are at risk.

[khaled0111]

official_bitcointalk!! the one who chose this email address is very stupid and has no imagination. He could at least make some effort and choose a more convincing address, something that has "brave" on it.
Scammers used to be more clever.
I doubt anyone would fall for this cheap phishing attempt. But thank you anyway OP.

[Lafu]

Its the same when you get some kind of emails from other services or platforms , like ebay , paypal etc.
The most of this emails when you click on it has phishing and Malware in it and also just for the future this kind of platforms dont send you emails to update your things.

Wonders me that they dont have written in there email send 100 Bat and get 1500 back.

[GreatArkansas]

I don't know where did they get our email address? Like how do they know you are using Brave browser? (Maybe random only)
Because I also received some email like that, but not about brave, any other cryptocurrency news or email about cryptocurrency. Maybe just my email address got pawned or affected with data breaches?

[alani123]

This is quite a smart attempt provided that Brave has created quite a bit of hype for its giveaways. I hope nobody will fall victim to this though. People should always be careful what the click on. Modern browsers supposedly have phishing protection but it's not always effective.

You said it right, and these hackers have targetted the right project, there are hundreds of thousands of Brave users right now and not all of them are not knowledgeable or newbies when it comes to checking the link, and the 1500 Bat is such a big amount to refuse, I hope nobody will fall into this trick.

I think this have been posted if I'm not mistaken:

[Warning] Fake Brave Bounty Program Giving 1,500 BAT Tokens to each participant!.

But thanks anyway to the OP, maybe others haven't read that original warning, so just be careful not to trust any emails you got or even click on that link.

[iamaruf]

Yeah this scam method is old.and I think there are so many posts about BAT scam mail. I don’t think need to create more posts for this.better to avoid those male,mark as spam and block that mail. It will be better.

i didnt know that this posted before

[passwordnow]

This has been shared before but I think it's appropriate to share it because there might be users that still don't know that this kind of scam exists. Don't be too greedy to get free money without any reason, anything that you will get for free on internet isn't guaranteed.
Never believe to those unofficial websites and emails of Brave Browser or other known services.

I often receive emails like this and I already know that the messages in the emails are phishing, true you say many Brave users including me if 1% of them follow the instructions how much the scamer benefits, so this is a beginner who will be the target.

[X-ray]

Even these kind of phishing is spreading to discord aswell. lastime I got a message to download certain wallet or claim through refferal link to get 0.2 BTC I mean that's simply too good to be true and also who would spent that much money just to get people signing up through their refferal link. Honestly this kind of scam attempt has gotten out of hand and need to be stopped. I heard that if you report the email you received to google they will automatically filter the email from the same sender to spam folder.

I've often gotten messages like this via email, the most important thing is that you don't have to input your sensitive data and click the link to avoid scams. Since Brave released airdrop many scammers send this email to the crypto holders

[tsaroz]

And he probably got the emails from some stupid bounty campaign that let the user email public on spreadsheet or had those from a fake airdrop of x coins where you need to fill your email to get an airdrop. Users need to be sure about download anything be it a software or an extension and use a virtual machine if you really need to try something out.

yes they put google docs for that purpose

[StephenJH]

The stolen user data is used for such dark purposes and every crypto involved person should be careful with such shady emails. I never open the email links directly and checking the source of the link is necessary before proceeding to the next page. The phishing email looks like a strictly written and these mail copy-paste the original message from other sources. Using strong online protection software is a good idea in this case.

thanks for the information, many crypto people who usually browse many crypto sites is really to often read this forum to avoid this kind of phising. And also people are supposed to be not trust any airdrops site that not recommend from any airdrop auditor like airdrop channels or something like that, entering random airdrops is really dangerous for our wallets because they can steal our password or privatekey from phising websites that they made
