📢【Emergency Pitfall Avoidance Guide】Step-by-step guide to identify new "custom node" balance scams! A must-read for wallet users🔥
🚨Blood and Tears Case Warning
A close friend was just scammed out of 30,000! All because she added the "customer service" provided custom node! 😱 The scammer guided her to download the official wallet → small test transfer → import "official node" → suddenly the account shows receiving millions of USDT! The result was shocking during the transfer: the balance instantly turned to air💸
💥 Breakdown of the Scam Process
1️⃣ Phishing Scripts: Impersonating exchange customer service/airdrop welfare officials in private chats
2️⃣ Gaining Trust: Guiding to download the official wallet + small test (long-term bait)
3️⃣ Laying the Trap: Inducing to add "special nodes" (which are actually testnet nodes or fake nodes)
4️⃣ Smoke and Mirrors: Sending tokens, showing balance (USD-named test coins)
5️⃣ Moment of Shock: Stunned when needing to transfer to someone, test coins are worthless
🔍 Technical Scam Avoidance Guide
✅ Three No Principles for Nodes
Do not add nodes recommended by strangers❌
Do not trust "exclusive accelerator" nodes❌
Do not click on links to nodes from unknown sources❌
✅ Balance Verification Method
1. Switch back to the official node for verification
2. Use blockchain explorer to check transaction hash (on-chain records never lie!)
3. Verify contract address for same-named tokens (the first three digits of fake coin contracts must be different)
