New day, new NFT scam - Trust wallet users beware

By LeftFooted | bitcoinea | 15 Aug 2023


I apologize in advance if this looks like old news but I've only just noticed.


I just became aware of what is undoubtedly a new scam involving fake NFT giveaways and airdrops.


I opened my Trust Wallet, I have a few different wallet addresses, and they're all filled with NFTs I know for sure I never bought, and / or applied to receive.


They look like roughly the same and promise the chance to redeem $1,000 in DAI or ETH or WHAT-HAVE-YOU in exchange for the NFT I just received.


There are others too, a bit more sneaky. Unfortunately you can't delete them, all you can do is click on 'hide and report', which is what I did. The bottom line is, if you're a Trust Wallet user, check your NFTs and if you see you don't recognize, hide and report, and do not open.
