Be Cautious and take Caution.

War is painful, many victims, loss of home, death and also great fear. everyone will surely feel what is felt there or in ukraine and this will be an opportunity for scammers to take action.
intend to donate out of pity they easily trust scammers who are all well packaged to convince people, and these should really do a thorough research before donating as it would be very sad if they don't accept it as they desperately need help from all over the World. And scammers don't think so because all they think about is taking a chance without seeing the suffering of others and must be exterminated.

For the people who are far away and cannot do anything but give some donations to save the people, you will find these scammers taking advantage of that opportunity to steal money from sincere donators.  All their eyes can see is profit and they don't have any heart because they are stealing from the people who lose all of the meaning of their life because of this nonsense war. This is when people lose their trust in strangers because of this kind of evil act that's why we cannot blame people when they act like they don't care because they were just preventing themselves from these scammers.

Currently, many fraudsters are using social media, such as asking for donations to help Ukraine because the country needs money to evacuate citizens or others. Don't trust them easily. With this method, find out more about where their wallets come from and what their goals are, don't be too hasty.

It is very important to be on the alert to ensure that the assistance you want to render gets to the right people and not scammers. This time, scammers may get to the point of duplicating websites that look similar to the original ones. So intending donors should look out for details of the websites; to check the letters, etc. and ensure you are sending to the right address/website.

Seeing and following the news from Ukraine and Russia, I no longer know what Putin's motive is to continue waging a war that makes no sense to it, on the one hand there is a devastated country, a Russian army that is weakening more, I don't know what they are looking for, the destruction in these times is not good, the conflict is seen to be very long-term, I see that the news favors Ukraine, then I see others where they say that they favor RUSSIA, others affirm that the Russian army is very weak, The reality is that the information is already very divided, and it is difficult to establish a rational scheme, the most rational thing is that this ends and no more people suffer, be they Ukrainians, Russians, the war makes no sense.

We will never know what the correct information is, with today's war not only between the military, today's war has the intervention of the media whoever holds the media is the winner.

I always follow the news about the war between the two countries but I have not found the real reason for them to end the war even though both countries are suffering heavy losses of people and property.

I know that Ukraine was a fundamental pillar for the Soviet Union in its time, and the best infrastructures were created there, I don't know if Putin wants to recover that phase of history that they think they lost, because Belarus is like saying an arm of RUSSIA, and another arm that maybe will go after him later will be for Finland, New Zealand, because if he achieves his goal and nobody does anything to him, then he continues like this, that is what I speculate because those countries are very rich in natural resources, I imagine that he will also be wanting to take them for that reason.

Maybe what you say is true they ended it all because they wanted to take the source of the wealth.
Because to achieve the goals and purposes of their desires, they must do various ways to achieve their goals to the last point, it is not impossible for them.

As far as everything goes, I don't know if that war is taking longer than normal, for me they have to be with plans to take over the entire country, for me those NATO countries and the USA are like those children who throw stones at them to a beehive and then they run away and it stings the others, I think that's what's happening, because there it is, they say they've given the Ukrainians weapons, but so be it with the best weapons, the population The civilian who is defending is not an expert in weapons, they are not soldiers, they are not Marines, they are normal people, and they are facing many who have studied a lot for it, I do not see any help yet.

Just as expected on where these fraudster/scammers would really take advantage with the current crisis between Russia and Ukraine.They dont mind about of being ethical or not
on just using human lives conditions for the benefit of their own good or for the sake of their own pocket thats why us donators or community who do tend to make out
some support should really go for those official addresses or channels so that we wont really be losing our track in case we do make out some immediate move.
Be aware on things that you've been dealing or seeing with.

I would say that such scammers have no emotions or feelings and scam in the name of people who are suffering from war situations.
Innocent people and children are waiting for those charity funds and these scammers have no shame in eating up that money.
I think the only way to stop these scammers is to give them strict punishment/jail if any one of them is caught doing this illegal and immoral activity.

[DRINKnPLAY]

Yes such a tragedy that is happing in Ukraine, This is one mans War & his name is Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin & to those

who scam to take advantage of others in a situation like this are no different to that scumbag Putin.

These scammers are smart and calculated i suggest do your research before handing over money

to anyone regardless of what they might say or how professional they look, Maybe ask them for Proof of identity ?

ok internet people bye for now & stay safe, Don't get scammed

indeed, punishment can provide a deterrent effect for them, the problem is that cryptocurrencies themselves do not have legal protection so there is no basis for taking legal action, let alone donating using cryptocurrencies. From the beginning, scammers seem to have never been deterred from committing crimes, unfortunately their wide range of motion and security from punishment make them free to move

[Albescent]

Exactly, this is a very good piece of advice.
I’d also like to say that in case anyone has entered into this trap or scammers, or given your bank credits or wallet access information to anyone, immediately block all transactions from your account till you can report it to the cyber-crime and further trace the person behind it. If any way your bitcoin is lost, there is no way to trace it back.

[|MINER|]

~snip~

I agreeing with yours word. Because in this opportunity scammers may have already started grabbing money. So donating money there without doing any research only after seeing some video or picture will be absolutely stupid. I would not call the war good because both countries are suffering terrible losses.  And if you want to help Ukraine, you can definitely research and donate through a trusted channel

[Zanab247]

Noted OP, for this good information you just passed across  the forum right now for people not to fall victim to scammers in the community. Giving is my hobby, but since scammers started using the system to make money from people and to hack people account, I don't give out without a genuine research at the moment. I  love in helping people that have difficult issues like Ukraine and Russia, because whenever I see countries fighting themselves, make me to remember the story my grandfather told me about the world war that took  many lives and also reduced their economy to zero level some years ago.

we are all ready for this , as a credit card holder and a crypto currency holder? we are aware of those scam attempts and we are already ready to what to do incase there is a hacking or scamming that take part.

Trust no one.

If there is a possible victim ? scammers will always take place and this is how we must deal about them.

send them to hell for keeping your coins safe everytime and everyday.

[darewaller]

I have faced with a ton of "I am from Ukraine, it would be great to get some donations" type of messages as well, but why would anyone donate to those people when literally the government of Ukraine has crypto address that you can donate to? That's the thing about this one, I mean in any other stuff like "help Africa" and so forth, that was understandable because you do not know how you can donate and how you can make that money go directly to people who need it. But here?

Here is the first time, we have official government accounts providing us with crypto address that we can send money to, I have sent a good chunk of my money there which really put me in debt for a few months but a few months of living under debt is nothing compared to what those people are going through. So, just stick with those addresses.

[qwertyup23]

With the recent Russia/Ukraine invasion, the Ukrainians asked for help accepting bitcoin and other form of donations.
Having know, Scammers are taking chance of this moment to invade as well, it's best someone we all be guided and not fall as victims to this.
Five minutes of your time can lead to an hour, please be guided in this times.
You could share to your pals, I felt I should share this. People are lossing funds!! I'm no expert at privacy of coins buh take caution and be Cautious.
Thanks X

I just do not understand some people- war is happening and they try to take advantage of this destructive and unfortunate scenario purely for their personal gain? It really sucks to see that people are willing to sacrifice their morals over their greediness and personal gain.

Thank you for this warning, OP. Lots of willing and generous individuals want to contribute to at least lessen the burden of Ukrainians due to the effects of war. But with their generosity must come with caution as lots of fake wallets, addresses, and malware from links can be clearly seen circulating on the web.

[Rigon]

This is nothing new. Scammers will take advantage of any situation to make money. There is a lot of stuff in the media people asking for money to help them escape the crisis. I have come across some on my facebook feed, pictures of women and children in distress. There is usually a writeup that they need money to save themselves. Anyone who falls for this scam has themselves to blame. I believe there is a official Ukraine Bitcoin address for donations if you're feeling generous.
Ukrainian Scam Donation Posts and Users

There are many people who make honest use of opportunities. But war situation in Ukraine Russia many people will pray for help with pictures of helpless people.You will protect yourself from all these scams. If you want to donate, donate officially at the address given below.But whatever you do, donate wisely and don't give money to any cheaters.

if someone has fallen into the trap of a scammer and gives all his personal information along with his wallet access, then nothing can be saved. who has access to the wallet is the owner and bitcoin transactions are very easy to track. if bitcoin is lost there's nothing to do but just let it go. All kinds of ways will be done by scammers to trap their victims, so you have to be more careful and alert. If the intention is to donate to war victims like Ukraine vs Russia, please check in detail, don't let your donation enrich the scammers.
