#Write2Earn 🚨 "I Almost Lost $2,000 to a Fake Crypto Site — Here's What Saved Me"
#Write2Earn #CryptoSafety #BinanceSecurity
I was casually browsing when I landed on a site called pcsWAP.info — it looked like a Binance or PancakeSwap clone. I connected my wallet and saw an exciting message:
💰 "You have $2,000 in your wallet — 100 BNB and 100 CAKE."
My heart skipped. I thought I had hit a jackpot.
But something didn’t feel right. The site showed BSCTESTNET CHAIN, not the real Binance Smart Chain. I paused. Did some digging.
Turns out, pcswap.info is a scam site — it shows fake balances on the testnet to trick you into sending real money to “unlock” fake funds.
Thanks to a quick warning I got from a trusted source, I: ✅ Disconnected my wallet
✅ Never sent any gas fees or crypto
✅ Checked my real balance on bscscan.com
✅ Moved my funds to a new wallet just to be safe
💡 Lesson:
If a site promises free money or shows high balances out of nowhere, pause, check the network (Mainnet vs Testnet), and verify your wallet independently.
