I had such a case in 2017, a friend of mine lost money with such an ETH wallet. He stumbles upon the seed of an ETh address which contains a token worth thousands of dollars, however as soon as he transfers ETH to that address, it is immediately moved elsewhere. Fortunately, my friend lost only a few dollars

Didn't really know something like this looks like a battle between a scammers and greedy users. It's good thing that you've brought this up now most of us know here greediness is not really good at any terms.

Anyone who is greedy enough to send eth to a wallet address he stumbled upon just because he/she was able to get hold of the pk will only have themselves to blame, they say nothing good comes easy, anyone who send eth just to get coins that does not belong to them is equally a scammer, there are certain things that should be frown Upon.

If you think you are smart well think again
After UNI Airdrops many starts looking for people's Private keys and recovery seeds using search engines and data engines like 4shared and others but guess what?
Some smart scammers are out there willingly exposing their private keys and recovery seed so that greedy people can scan through them, here is what the scammers have in store
The scammers leave good valuable tokens on the wallet and set the wallet to automatically send out any deposited Ethereum, the greed people will want to deposit eth to quickly move out the tokens to exchanges but its a smart trap, once the eth landed on the wallet address it automatically send out to another Ethereum address...
How did I know this? I know someone who fell for this, luckily he only deposit 20$ worth of Ethereum..
OMG! How is this possible? I didn't know of any process like this. I don't know how I will send tokens if deposit Ethereum automatically vanished. I didn't send my private, because I had so many doubts about this process. Now I think we should send our wallet which we won't ever use again ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) . Scammers are taking advantage of UNI token hype.

This scam has been around for many years, the people being scammed are often new and greedy. As soon as they see the money in their wallet they only think of taking it without carefully checking it. As long as you carefully examine that ETH wallet you will find that there are only ETH transfers and it is usually done instantly.

There is called when you feel you are smart, you are actually stupid. because smart people will never think of himself as smart, he will always think there is something lack of mine, to be increased again, to learn more and more. because the more he knows, the few he will feel he knows. Some smart scammers are out there willingly exposing their private keys and recovery seed so that greedy people can scan through them, here is what the scammers have in store
It is like an old method that is modified and again conformed to the latest hot project that will make every greedy person interested so easily to the trap. What we can do is actually none, just be careful and do not be greedy. Think that we can't get funds that are not ours exactly.

If, under any pretext, you are offered to open any private information, then you have 100% scam. Personally, I have no idea what people still fall into such traps. UNI didn’t require anything like that, they didn’t need your private keys and seed phrases. Everything was fair and transparent.

Aside from greed, those who got scammed have no enough knowledge about the market and if they see free money they believed on that without doubting, as if they can really get big profit without doing anything or by just sending ETH and they’ll get triple in return. Those ETH wallet are set up to scam people, I don’t want to get scammed so I wont try to use their private key even if there’s a token available.

Scammers are smarter than those greedy individuals that is why we don't need to wonder why it goes like that and gets scammed. Nobody knows that was a scam trap at first until someone will complain about it. But if you neglected to read their reviews and feedback it is likely will have some tips in regards to possible scamming activities. It is just us who can assess it, easily fall into high rewards, you are also helping yourself to get scam. That is difficult when you are investing with a lack of knowledge.

Lol, I have heard about this social engineering a few months ago. No one is able to spend the ETH due to the automated bots and there were more than 20 pending transactions once. Free money is on the mousetrap and newbies still prefer to ignore what they have learned before ICO scams. The solution is to ask ETH developers to delete the contract from the smart chain. ETH developers should stop these hunting games ASAP because the victims are more than yesterday every new day. Twitter scammers have started this method actively and victims are not aware of why they can't send the token from the address which they own private key.

Always keep in mind that scammers are very far in terms of looking on any possible ways to get earnings from you. They are very intelligent because it is their way of getting funds by taking advantage of the others. Keep in mind that you really need to be more wiser and vigilant in order to avoid fraudulent and scamming.

Thanks for this I did not know that there is such a method like this, but I mind my own business and only look for my own wallet and not wallet from other users, but information like this is very vital, you will likely get scammed if you give them opportunity to scam you so always be aware on how scammers works.

Well, scammers are also taking some risk with their own money to scam you. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) But at the end of the day, they deceived you with some strategy and get what they wanted.Probably everyone claimed their UNI tokens so don't waste your time in finding and buying an ethereum address which maybe eligible for UNI.

Anyone can fall for a scam, regardless of new person or old person, their target is everyone but newbies are more likely to fall into the trap. They don't do decent work because they feel fraud is their fastest way to get rich, or they enjoy seeing others be trapped.

I am also worried about it especially newbie who is hungry for information and also wants to quickly get money from crypto. usually will be very gullible, I was like that the first time. but never lose, just spend time playing dice which is actually a scam.
If anyone offers such an offer and asks for an etherum or other altcoin deposit, just decline.
There are no friends in this business, unfortunately. You can trust only yourself. Yes, you can watch hundreds of videos about altcoins and projects, but do not believe anyone. Simply collect all information and know how to compile it correctly to find out the truth.

People who are smart enough to think of such a method first deserve to get a reward. Can we really call them scammers? It's a smart contract trap rather than a scam. A scammer promises you something or tries to steal money from you. In this method you are trying to steal the money but end up losing your own. The hunter becomes the prey. ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) If they told you to send money to their address to get coins stored there they'd be scamming you, but in this case they are not.

Why do you want to deposit in the first place on any sorts of airdrops? I have tiny experience with airdrops before but it didn't require any deposits even a tiny amount. I just risked my email for that and gladly I used a junk email cause they just sent me a phishing site thinking that I use MEW. Wise move as there are lots of such kinds of scammers who are trying to hack your wallet thinking that the email you used are same with your link wallet emails. As there are people who unknowingly deal with this, scammers able to penetrate and emptied their wallets without their knowledge, so being always careful whenever you participate is a must. Never fall with this offer without putting some time in doing some research to avoid anything to happen with you, most with your personal information.

Woow, to be honest I am just hearing about this and it also shows how far technology has grown, be it for good or for bad. I believe this will also serve as a lesson and hence reducing the urge to scam people (even that is even possible), this is because, the first scammer do not know if he will be a victim of such, and therefore to be on the safer side and save his little ETH, might decide to be at peace. On the other hand, it also goes to show how far people can go just to steal from others, imagine going about searching data engines and search engines in order to get peoples private keys. In addition to this, it also proves that, the best way to secure your private keys or mnemonic phrases is not by having a screenshot of it, or by saving it online but by having it on paper, then keeping it in secure places.
