$35 Giveaway SCAM, BEWARE!!

[acroman08]

I just saw this on a service board, they claim they are doing a $35 giveaway, and you only have to post your wallet information and log in to their website. The issue is, they are asking you to use your Bitcointalk username and password to log in to their website. I am sure you all understand what that meant, right?

Our company has decided to give $35 to 12 people on the BitcoinTalk forum (especially newbies who are currently only in the member rank with more than 50 merits). Although $35 may not be a big deal to many, I think it can bring some joy to someone.

The person who receives this gift will receive their prize on March 1. There are no conditions for participation, just post your wallet information and log in to our company website with your BitcoinTalk forum username and password and press the claim button, then we will understand who is eligible for the prize. The first 12 people will receive $35. After the 12 people click the claim button, no one else will receive this money. I will mention those 12 people here later.

Through this initiative, I want to spread some love and cooperation in the forum, I hope it can bring joy to someone. This is the link to our company website:

First and foremost, I'd like to thank acroman08 for bringing this matter to our attention.

I am not against giveaways by no means as there are always some people in need of free munney but signing up to a shady website posted by a newbie? That, my friend is a big no in my book. I can't afford to do that.

Maybe he should have run a price prediction contest or something similar, I dunno. Either way that account will be eradicated and obliterated by the mods soon.

Bitcointalk don't negotiate with no-name scammers.

Typical phishing attempt. I hope the mods get to delete such a post.

He's probably looking for accounts that he can hack into and maybe farm them for signature campaigns or even sell them. I can see he is mostly looking at newbies who are currently only in the member rank with more than 50 merits.

Since acroman08 has created this thread, it will act as a reference for the flag I am creating

For your information, he has also posted the same post on local boards in Nigeria to continue his scam.

Looks like the threads he has made have been deleted by the mods. But it's possible that he'll come back and try to post it again.
Thanks OP for bringing this up and people shouldn't be too greedy with these amounts and always to pay attention and due diligence with the details posted on these offers.

Basically, creating a flag on an account that posts a link containing phishing is not quite appropriate, you should immediately report it to Sub Meta like I did. Or as much as possible, report it to the moderators, so that they are immediately banned.

If it's just a flag, they can still do something similar that could be unknowingly used by a Newbie account and it can take a toll.
If you see a suspicious link in the future, report it here=> Report Malware and Suspicious Links here so Mods can take Action !

Their threads will be immediately deleted by the moderator and the author will be banned immediately. And everything is done, without a trace
