Watch out for the scammers who basically embed malicious links in free “fake crypto” sent to you. Don’t click the links, they may contain contracts that drain your account ⚠️

Yesterday, I Fell into a Honeypot Trap — Be Cautious!

Yesterday, I received three unexpected incoming transfers in my wallet:

5,000,000 SHIB

540 USDC (with a suspicious short link)

200 USDT (worth around $200)

At first glance, this looked like a blessing. But in reality, it was a honeypot attack — a common trap where scammers send fake tokens or funds to your wallet to lure you into interacting with malicious smart contracts or phishing links.

Here’s what you need to know:

Never click on suspicious links attached to token names (like the [t.ly/...] in the USDC transaction).

Don’t try to swap or transfer suspicious tokens without checking them on a block explorer.

These tokens can trigger smart contracts that drain your wallet once interacted with.

Stay Safe: Always verify unexpected transactions. Use tools like Etherscan or BSCScan to inspect the contract and transaction details. And remember, if it looks too good to be true—it probably is.
