A high-ranking executive from the Shiba Inu team has issued a stark warning to the SHIB community, urging investors to exercise extreme caution in the face of a rising tide of sophisticated scams. The alert, which comes amidst a period of market uncertainty, highlights the growing threat of fraudulent schemes designed to prey on unsuspecting investors.
Lucie, a key marketing official for the Shiba Inu ecosystem, took to social media to caution investors about the proliferation of deceptive tokens and fraudulent promotions. She warned that scammers are capitalizing on the current market sentiment by creating fake tokens and generating artificial hype to lure investors into making impulsive decisions. These schemes often promise quick, substantial profits but are engineered solely to steal funds.
"Many tokens are being launched to take advantage of market uncertainty," Lucie stated, emphasizing that scammers often use emotional tactics and the "fear of missing out" (FOMO) to bypass investors' better judgment. She specifically called out the social media platform X (formerly Twitter), noting it is "full of bots, fake promotions, and misleading posts," which makes it increasingly difficult for users to distinguish legitimate information from scams.
The Shiba Inu team advises all community members to adopt a highly critical approach. Investors are urged to conduct thorough research before investing in any new project, including diligently verifying the official website and social media channels. "Never invest because of hype," Lucie stressed.
This recent warning echoes a similar alert issued in November 2024 by the official Susbarium Trustwatch, a security account for the SHIB community. That alert warned about fraudulent accounts impersonating Shiba Inu supporters to promote unknown and likely malicious tokens.
