⚠️🎣Phishing messages collection + how not to take the bait ⚠️
In this post I share with you a collection of screenshots that I have taken of the phishing attempts happening the last two weeks in different Slack groups so that you do not fall into the scam of these bastards!! 😡😡
1. "The Marketing campaign scam":
2. "The Hard Fork scam":
3. My favourite one: "The Vitalik Buterin himself sending you a DM cam":
Tips for not taking the bait out of these phishing messages:
The main team of any cryptocurrency will NEVER ask you to send currency to them. And if they were running any kind of Marketing campaing, they will never sent you a DM ( direct message ) they will use the @general or @announcements channel, depending on the group.
If you can not take the temptation and you want to click on the link of the message check before if this is correct, since sometimes the scammers do not even hack the landing page, but they create one with a similar name In the screenshot messages of Slack app you can see the url by howering over the link and realize that the landing page is myetherwaillet.com, instead of myetherwallet.com.
### Please share other phishing messages if you have received any.
Thanks for reading and have a nice day!
Like your post. Thank you for shearing
EXCELENT
I am afraid some people will learn the hard way. It is a shame because it gives legitimate parties/communication channels a bad name. No punishment too hard here...
