🪂 #AirdropSafetyGuide — Stay SAFU in the Wild West of Web3!
Not all airdrops are worth the gas — or the risk. Here’s how I protect my wallet:
Red Flags I Watch For:
Fake websites mimicking legit ones (double-check the URL!)
Anonymous teams with no track record or LinkedIn presence
Too-good-to-be-true promises like “instant 1000x” or massive token drops for nothing
Weird contract permissions — especially unlimited approvals
How I Verify Projects:
Use tools like Etherscan, DeBank, or Safeview to inspect contracts
Check if the community is active and not full of bots
Research if reputable figures or platforms have mentioned it (without blindly trusting influencers)
Scam I Avoided: One “airdrop” asked me to “claim” tokens — but the contract wanted full control of my wallet. Big red flag. Walked away and later found it listed on a scam alert site.
Stay sharp and help others stay SAFU — share your tips!
