#空投防骗e手册
Not all airdrops are "free lunches from the sky." Many are carefully designed traps. Today, I will share some experiences on how to identify airdrop scams and tips to avoid them.
💥Common Danger Signals👇🏻
• Official website has spelling errors or suspicious domain names
• Team information is vague, no whitepaper
• Forcing wallet connections, authorizing suspicious contracts
• Project community is too quiet or spamming
💥How I Verify Project Authenticity👇🏻
• Use blockchain explorers (like Etherscan) to check if the token contract is secure
• Check if the project has passed audits from organizations like Certik
• Join Telegram/Discord, observe community activity and discussion content
• Verify if the project partners and KOLs on Twitter/X are genuinely retweeting
💥Common Scam Techniques👇🏻
• Using airdrops to trick you into signing "Approve" malicious contracts
• Impersonating official accounts to send airdrop links
• Impersonating popular projects to send “retroactive airdrops” to scam Gas fees
💥Personal Experience👇🏻
Last year, I encountered a project claiming to be a "LayerZero airdrop." The official website seemed professional, but the quality of Twitter followers was very low. They required pre-authorization of tokens, which felt off, so I decisively exited, and a week later, a wallet hacking incident broke out.
Protect your assets by starting with vigilance. When participating in airdrops, it's better to miss out than to get scammed. Everyone is welcome to share your anti-scam stories, and let's protect Web3 together!
