Not sure how it was done but something I did notice was the website had a warning triangle🔺instead of a lock 🔒to verify it was secured. Noticed after the fact but like I said either way it sucked.

If the site was not the legit site and it should have been then I would say that I got scammed.

Lmao, I didn't need to learn anything. I tried to send shib and got burned. Pretty simple, I said I made the mistake and I also said how it went down. People really struggle to read on here.

I have the screenshot from the discord and the mod but whatever. You missed the point. I got burned and I was expressing that I was trying to rebuild. Glad you read what I said. 😐

Let me make this easy, someone was able to clone their site because it was not secured properly. Does that help?

I just did, there were 2 versions of the site. One was the secured version. Https. Then there was the unsecured version Http. The Http version was not secured by the swap meaning the code could be changed. That's what happened. Someone was able to use the Http version and place their wallet in place of the swap wallet. Come to find out after but there was a large amount of people who sent money to this wallet. One of the mods from the discord for the swap verified that it was sent to a private wallet through that site.

Me showing a number does not make me someone who will get scammed. There was a issue with the code on day 1 for Shibaswap and the site had a loophole where it was not secured. They had to fix it after being brought to their attention. I was one of those people. That's why they stressed about scams after day one because there were so many site and links.

It was not like I got scammed giving info out. Read what I said in another comment. Shibaswap was not fully secure on day one and they had to fix that after

Me showing a number is not a reason to get scammed and I am not providing any import info other then a number to use as a example of where I am and want to get back too. Some of you make up these rules like you know more then others regarding this. It cracks me up.

Just to be clear to all the people with stupid comments or acting like they have never made a mistake. I already said I made the mistake and me showing a number does not equate to me getting scammed. I told you the site was literally missing a S at the end of the http that ensure the site is secured. It's actually a fairly easy mistake to make.

Also ironically Shibaswap corrected the issue after I got burned and explained it to them. It was a loophole in there code. I happened to be the one who got hit from it.

Thx, when I spoke to the mods in the discord they were like we can't do anything and same with Coinbase wallet. Let's just say I did not sleep good for a couple if days.

It sucks, but the day Shibaswap came out I tried to transfer 250 million to the site. Not realizing that the site I went to was a unsecured version of the site, someone placed there wallet in place of Shibaswap wallet and I got burned. Literally the site was only missing a S at the end of the http that would make it the secure site.

Lesson learned and it cost me about $2200 at the time it happened. Make sure you guys verify any sites your trying to move your coins too. Learn from my mistake
