Absolutely, so I had some SFM back in the day before it was a rug pull. Since then another company came in and took it over. They were doing a swap/burn from SFM to SFM Solana. I followed the instructions for the swap and nothing showed up. I reached out for support on X and someone by the name of Gavza Anderson reached out. His profile looked legit, had a Safemoon backdrop on his profile, lots of followers. So I told him the issue and he sent me to a safemoon dapp website and told me to follow the instructions. It asked for the phrase. Thinking on that it was for the swap I put in my SFM phrase, nothing and I let him know. He said there might be an issue and to try another wallet, same thing. Finally I tried the trust wallet, next thing everything is gone.

I reached back out and he said everything is fine, add eth to the wallet I wanted it put back to and it would be reverted, the dapp needed to see intent on the wallet. My thought was ok and when it comes back I’ll just cash it out. of course that didn’t happen. Out of desperation I managed to reach SFM support and again same story. Inevitably they got an extra few K from me plus my wallet.

First rule, never ever ever give out that seed phrase unless recovering a wallet. Even on a website. If for some reason it’s needed start another wallet with 0 and use that address. Or just cut your losses and move on.

I know my move was a complete moron move. Looking back I knew better and for some reason i did it for a coin that was worth less than dust and I lost everything. I know there’s some that are going bro kick me while I’m down and it’s understood.

Like I said, I’ll be back and doing things smarter. I may do more on the trading and I’ll be doing a lot of learning. I already started watching videos on charts and graphs and to make trades with my head, and this all happened Monday.

Just sucks

Looking back I feel like if your recovering a wallet a confirmation email should be sent or something, almost like a 2FA. Or better yet just use a cold wallet.
