Airdrops On Crypto Twitter - Why You Should Be Careful

Since most projects are commencing with airdrops to support community building, it appears that this year is the period of airdrops. Crypto fraudsters and hackers have chosen to take advantage of this chance to improve their fraudulent abilities. They employ this technique to hack their targets, particularly newcomers who are completely uninitiated in the crypto and airdrop sector.The best place to find the majority of the most recent information on cryptocurrency is on Twitter. Having a twitter account is one prerequisite for managing a cryptocurrency project, where you can make updates and communicate with your community.

Some of these airdrop tasks require interacting with the project dapp or, more frequently, being tagged by a random person to click a specific airdrop link. As a result, if you are tagged by someone you know on Twitter to click a link, you should get in touch with them and confirm that they were the ones who sent you the link. Given that their account might be compromised, the hacker can read their conversations to determine who they frequently contact with regarding cryptocurrencies. They might then take advantage of this information to send you phishing links so they can access your wallet.

For the safety of your wallet and your assets, ignore the individual or, better yet, ban them if you find yourself being tagged to a random airdrop and asked to join by clicking the provided link. They are spammers and they will continue to email you airdrop links and tag you in their spam. But remember to refrain from clicking any links. Ignore them and block them. I've been a victim of this previously, but all they got out of me was the $8 worth of Airbnb credit that was in my wallet.
