How to Stay Away from Fake Crypto Giveaways on Twitter and Telegram

in #cryptoscams5 days ago (edited)

Every day, there are more and more fake crypto giveaways on Twitter and Telegram. At first glance, they might look real because scammers copy popular crypto accounts, use the same style of posts, and make messages that seem urgent. You might see things like "Send 0.01 BTC and get 0.1 BTC back" or "Limited time reward for early users." These deals are meant to make you act quickly without thinking.

Most of the time, a simple rule will keep you safe: a real giveaway will never ask you to send money first.

Before you trust any post, take a moment to look over the account carefully. Scammers on Twitter often use a profile picture and name that are similar to each other, but the username usually has small changes. Be careful with private messages on Telegram that say you've won something, especially if you never entered a contest. A lot of fake accounts act like admins or support and ask for your seed phrase or private key. A real team will never ask for this information. If you give them to someone else, they can take all your money right away.

Links are another big problem. Fake giveaway links can take you to a copycat website that steals your login information or tricks you into giving them access to your wallet. If you want to make sure a giveaway is real, go to the official website instead of clicking on a random link in comments or forwards.
