BACKGROUND INFO

Yes, I did block that Shibaswap Guardian (@shibaswapg) right after I realized that it’s a scam. However, I think my telegram account was shared among the scammers and therefore I was added by “someone” to another ShibaSwap: $SHIB $LEASH $BONE... in the evening right after blocking that Shibaswap Guardian in the morning on the same day.

This fake SHIB group has about 1946 members and 337 online at the time of writing.

When you are in this group, you will see:

1.) many different users with different profiles and names posted in every second in real time

2.) users posted in the group showing off their rewards they received from participating in this airdrop (3X SHIB in return)

3.) Users showed evidences of their SHIB received on Binance and other crypto wallet accounts. 

Note: I was kicked out of the group when I posted in the group that I lost my money! I do think they do the same to other victims too.

SHIB Airdrop Link (SCAM)

https://shiba-drops.live/shibatoken/index.html 

To participate in this airdrop, you must send your SHIB token to the generated address at least ¥100,000,000 first then you will receive ¥300,000,000 which is 3X back within 5-10 minutes (proved by many users in the group as the reward was fast and real). 

Other information: 

1.) there is a box where the scammer asks you to enter the SHIBA TOKEN address you want to receive the bonus with 

2.) there is a timer showing how many SHIBA TOKEN Left available for this airdrop 

3.) Chat support is available on this site so you can chat with the supporting staff if you encounter any issue 

4.) Txn Hash including time, addresses… and other related information are shown underneath of the page

I lost $10,000 

With lack of knowledge and experiences in crypto world, finally, I lost money to this scammer. 

I am sure there will be more scammers out there in this coming months and years. Also, their scamming strategies can be upgraded to more professional level. Therefore, I feel the need to share this experience to others to raise awareness about crypto scam and to protect you and your own assets. 

Have you ever experienced any crypto scam? How did you deal with it? Your contributions would be very helpful for many crypto newbies. 

Stay Safe!
