Last week, I found an airdrop project in Telegram called Marco Protocol, the airdrop looked decent at the first stage, I earned 200 MAPC tokens and that was instant! But you only can withdraw from your MAP wallet when Airdrop program will end, that's good, I am okay with it. Their airdrop tweet got 8K retweet and 9K likes, so, you can understand how hype it had!
But yesterday, they announced they are going to sell Bitcoin at a 50% discount to celebrate the halving. Can you imagine? 1 Bitcoin price is 8600 USD, people can buy by 4300$! I believe This is absolutely scam but many newbies already have fallen for that! As they saw MAPC has huge support in twitter, and they listed on CMC too.

50% off announcement: https://t.me/MAP_POB_channel/87

Considering the situations you mentioned, I did not need to visit the Telegram channel of the project. Yes, the situation mentioned in today's conditions is not very reassuring, but it should not be forgotten that there are great services and projects that have organized such events before. If the project you are talking about has a good team, perhaps they wanted to announce their projects by making a campaign like this instead of making advertising costs. Of course, I repeat that there is no organization that follows this project team and the market conditions are also in poor condition. For this reason, this assumption that I made does not have any accuracy, nor does it feature a feature to praise the project. I just wanted to point out that such a thing could happen in line with the activities and experiences I have seen before. Before coming to the end of my message, I would like to say it again, I did not research about the project, nor did I examine the TELEGRAM CHANNELS. I just wanted to inform you based on my previous experience.

with the statement that they are going to sell their bitcoin holdings for half the price is absolute scam, people have fall from this trick before and should not fall for that again, we should educate new comers or newbie going to a project , and tell them what needs to know,
This kind of scheme should be stop, because the longer these things keeps happening, newbies will not continue on crypto because of disappointment

Almost 95% airdrops are scams and scammers are doing new ways for cheating with hunters. We should be careful about such type of fake airdrops. They collect our valuable information and can hack our PC or wallet. Don't connect your wallet in this type of airdrops.
I agree with you. Most of the airdrops in this market are scams and need to be more careful because often require KYC users. In the crypto market, thousands of scammers appear and they will surely have many attractive investment invitations. Of course you need to stay away immediately and only trust the projects that are encouraged to invest and many people choose.

I heard about this but I wasn't moved to participate. Most times any project that brings token conversion doesn't end well for participants. That's why I didn't participate.

If a scammer makes his move in the manner of scamming the right way, then it is very difficult to get rid of that mess. As happened to you. I can say with certainty that they have some kind of link through which to overcome such a big obstacle.

Hearing what you said above makes absolutely no sense, I mean the reason why many users participate in MAPC projects is because the prizes they offer are quite tempting. I hope anyone is more careful and not tempted by airdrops that offer high prizes.

This is a very smart trick from smart scammers because they knew that most people will fall for it because of greed or because it looks real and thus they will fail to ask themselves the question of, what will be the project's gain for doing so?. Also, it is already known that most airdrops are just fake and from scammers who won't relent on looking for gullible ones. As for me, the airdrop is just a trap to get to people while the discount in Bitcoin is just to rip off the greedy and trapped users.

Unfortunately, if someone gets in the way of this kind of crap, then there is no trust that your wealth will not be passed on to anyone else unless you take a step before hitting the wall. Attempt to be there in time.

I am also tired of scammers, and i believe that all crypto currency peeps are tired too.
But being tired is not enough, there is a need to do the needful, by educating ourselves with the risks of the impossible.

Avoid greed, and do your own research to avoid scammers.

true, sometimes people follow the airdorp because they are tempted by the value of the prizes that are given without first researching the project, this is one of the mistakes beginners or airdrop seekers should they research first before following the airdrop

I think that they are just newbies who wants to earn easily her ein cryptocurrency so they are easily swayed by the sweet offers that they are seeing aroun. They are ready to join anything that they know is easy toe earn good amount of money and they will not have any second thoughts about it. It is hard to deal with them because they are not listening to the post that shows that they should not trust easily. I hope that they would stop believing on easy success and they should try to have hope that they will be rich and will earn money if they have patience. They should have self-control when it comes to spending money because that is great start. I hope that they will understand the basics of business and cryptocurrencies.

I think because it's rarely airdrop or bounty so they don't do research before joining. I have also joined several airdrops whose tasks are easy but the prizes are large enough that in the end they do not pay or scam, and also I do not want to join if anyone has to require KYC to get a prize.

I don't even check such distributions, where they promise to double bitcoin or sell it at a 50% discount. All this is a scam, and the result of participation in which will be the loss of your money. No real business can earn 100% profit for you in a short time. Stay away from such schemes.

Although few newbies actually smart enough to do research before wasting time on this kind of bounty. But this one is switching at the midway of ongoing bounty and only then people know this is cleary a scam project.

It looks like they deleted everything there, so you won't be able to find any information from them. But the information shared by OP is true, there are so many scammer in this market and we need to be very careful.

Who in the right mind would buy bitcoin half the market value price, even if it as discounted price it would smell fishy. People get scam because of ignorance and greed, if you know what you are doing and you are cautious, no one will be victimized by such scheme. One of the reasons why I stopped doing airdrop, some scammers are desperate for money.

We are not too easily attracted to promotional offers that are to be good to be true. Like the marco protocol project that offers 50% discount
for buying bitcoin. This makes no sense, it looks like it's a scam. Be careful about offers like this. I am very worried about the newbie who is
always looking for ways to generate instant profits. Whereas in the world of cryptocurrency there isn't make instant profit. All need a process,
thank you for this topic to make us all aware to stay away from MAPC tokens.

Do you think they will really selling bitcoin with half price ? If so, it will not stay long because many peoples will buy it.
Be careful of scam, usually they will requiring the buyer to do something so they can buy from them.
