How to identify fake cryptocurrency airdrop

in hive-175254 •  4 years ago 

I saw a youtube video about uniswap giving away 2.5 ETH by using metamask to claim. The metamask account must have at least 5 transactions but the fishy part is the need to key in our 12 secret seed phrase. I suspect that those who really tried it may just lose their metamask account fund. It really looks like a scam. Too good to be true but I was indeed tempted. 🤑

It shows its definitely scam. They are hoping atleast the user will have some tokens that they can steal later on.

A friend lost over $500 to something like that.

It was fortune that I did not fall into the trap due to greed. It was really tempting.

Exactly. The fact that they design the sites well and caption will make one almost fall for it.
