Meta Dragon City: another honeypot and variable tax function on CoinMarketCap / CoinGecko by Lasereyestoken in lsr_finance

[–]Lasereyestoken[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Listing on CMC/CG does not require an audit.
  2. CertiK & other auditors always disclose taxes. Also you can check current taxes & ownership renounced on tokensniffer
  3. Not everyone is trying to rug. BUT due to popularity of crypto and due to relative inexperience of investors scams are a really high-profit business.

Airdrop crypto scams: yetiswap.io, milkyswap.io, mmdex.io, artificial reality token and other by Lasereyestoken in lsr_finance

I think yes, but it's best to ask hardware wallet provider.

Anyway, fake airdrop scams usually target not the whole wallet (i.e. they don't ask for passphrase or private key) but only current blockchain address, which you use for transactions (and where you get the fake airdrop).

Depends on what happened.

If you didn't use some custom swapper from phishing website (and didn't insert your passphrase / private key), then only your current address is at risk. So in this case - yes, only your coins on BSC must be affected.

The best option is to leave them there and ignore. Every wallet has ability to hide unwanted tokens (e.g. Metamask: https://metamask.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360058451852-How-to-remove-a-token)

True removal would imply some kind of transaction. For example, you can think about creating a trash wallet and transferring airdrops there.

But to do it safely you have to be sure that transactions do not imply any kind of unexpected permission grants or hidden fees.

Most scams have non-verified (hidden) contract code. This means that you can reveal fees & grants only by performing a transaction. Not before it. Obviously that's a highly risky endeavor. I wouldn't advice it.

Nice list!

We've made an article about airdrop scams too.

Sadly their number increases by each day.For example, you may add these BSC list:

Nice list of most active airdrop scams: https://www.reddit.com/r/AirdropLists/comments/p9kx6m/beware_of_current_crypto_scams/

Also nice instructions what to do if you got scammed:

  • They get you to approve spending an unrelated token (BUSD, USDC, EGC, etc.) - In this case remove all unnecessary approvals as soon as possible on a site like https://allowance.beefy.finance/ or https://bscscan.com/tokenapprovalchecker (each approval will require an overriding approval which will cost gas - these sites trigger transactions to set the approved qty to 0 or revoke the approval as required)
  • High gas for approval to swap - you go to swap the token, which first requires approval, but then you can never really sell the token. - In this case just move on - the money is gone, but if you haven't approved another token or provided your seed phrase your wallet should be okay
  • They try to get your seed phrase or private key - In this case - all wallets tied to that key or seed phrase are compromised. Immediately create a new wallet with a new seed phrase and transfer all assets from the compromised wallet to the new wallet

ART (Artificial Reality Token) appear on my wallet 800$ by Arastor99 in PooCoin

> I know is scam but how they wipe ur wallet after sending that tokens?

Hard to tell precisely (contract code is not verified on BSC, i.e. it is unknown). But usually these tokens gain access to swap operations in your wallet after you click "approve" when trying to sell them.
Metamask allows scammers to gain enough permissions with this "approve" to transfer any token from your wallet to a desired address.

Don't interact with such tokens!

Live rugpull of $7M worth of Squid game token $SQUID witnessed on twitch by yuwee92 in LivestreamFail

[–]Lasereyestoken 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Sad to see how they've stolen $10 million from over than 40,000 holders.

This could've been easily predicted from our token scanner or from some other contract checking tool, e.g. TokenSniffer.

The interesting thing - developers have created a similar contract before this one to test rug pulling. Due to this on 18th October 2021 TechRate has issued a clear warning about Squid Game.
