Telegram airdrop scams follow a common script: they create a project with a professional appearance and build an inflated community with bots. They announce an airdrop to attract users, asking for simple tasks. Then, they charge fees to release the tokens. With the money raised, they list the token and manipulate the price with pump and dump schemes. After making a profit, they abandon the project. Typical signs: fee charging, anonymous team, generic whitepaper, forced urgency, and inflated communities. To protect yourself, avoid paying any amount, research the project, and be wary of easy promises. If it seems too easy, it probably is a scam. Real projects do not pressure, do not hide who they are, and do not charge to deliver what they promised.
Only dogs or $HMSTR and a few others were legitimate
