Do not fall into this trap because you will be robbed - Scam Alert
Source
Many people on Discord are receiving this message, with the news that they have benefited from a sweepstakes made by the website Pancakeswap and the MetaMask wallet.
The prize is 50 BNB that must be claimed by clicking on the link that appears and that will take you to the Pancake Swat website, also in the notice received the user is given the instructions to claim it.
When you do so, it will certainly take you to a fake page that looks like the real one and there you should click where it says Claim BNB.
So far everything seems harmless, but when you try to claim your prize you are taken to the next screen, where you are asked to enter the seed phrase of your Meta Mask account.
If you do this then they will steal it and take everything you have in your wallet.
So disregard this message and block the user on Discord.
Note: I alert the Project Hope team as the name RobiniaSwat also appears in the ad.

Hi @joseph1956
It is good that you give this alert, because there are many people falling into this trap, and many more. People do not fully understand that despite not being in front of other people, there are many who are ill-intentioned.
Unfortunately many will fall for sure.
Greetings @ joseph1956, grateful in advance for the valuable information you provide to all readers. We must be very attentive with those links that are sent to us by the discord, since they can scam us
Thanks for alerting us friend, this type of scam is very common, and many people still fall for it. Even when creating a wallet like Metamask we are told that at no time our recovery phrase will be requested by them.
Wow, yes I saw that news and the unfortunate thing is that some people always fall for ignorance, they do not realize that it is a scam, and that happens by not investigating and interacting with other people to ask for information about it, they are blinded with that little money and then what they do is steal them.
Greetings friend, thank you for sharing this information and alerting us about it, nowadays there are a lot of modus operandis to steal our finances.
See you later brother, have a great start of the week.
