👀Recently, a new wave of scams has erupted on the Tron chain, a bunch of 'smart people' thought they could take advantage, but ended up being precisely harvested!
Have you also come across such scenes 👇
> “As long as you recharge a small amount of Gas with Tron TRX, you can automatically receive airdrop USDT!”
“Zero-cost projects, invite others and get cashback, 100% safe!”
“Official airdrop test net! Everyone can receive 300 USDT!”
⚠️Reminder: All these are scams on the Tron chain that sell dog meat under the guise of sheep's head! Next, we will reveal their true colors—
🎭Scam one: Tron 'automatic airdrop' scheme—small Gas scams big money!
❌Scam tactics:
1. The project party issues a mnemonic phrase or wallet address, which already has dozens or even hundreds of USDT pre-stored in it.
2. Claiming that as long as you transfer a **small amount of TRX (native Tron token)** to the address, you can activate the withdrawal function.
3. The moment you operate, USDT is gone, and TRX is automatically transferred away by the program.
4. The wallet address has an automatic coin scanning robot implanted in the backend, your Gas is just their 'vegetable entry' for harvesting.
📉Real case: A large number of users have transferred 3~5U of TRX to the 'airdrop address' to activate Gas, and as a result, all were scammed, with losses exceeding hundreds of thousands of RMB.
🎭Scam two: 'Invite people for rewards' Tron mining scheme—an upgraded version of the Ponzi scheme.
❌Common phrases:
“Deposit 100U, return 3~5U daily.”
“Invite 1 person to reward 10%, team earnings stack and surge!”
“Contracts are verifiable, will never run away, Tron chain real-name endorsement!”
⚠️Truth:
This is a typical new scam combining **'smart contracts + pyramid schemes'**!
So-called 'contract custody' is just a sleight of hand to attract you to 'recharge with peace of mind';
Relying on 'inviting new users' to maintain operations, essentially a game of passing the parcel;
Once the project's capital plate peaks or the speed of inviting new people declines, it will immediately shut down and run away.
🧨The outcome is only one: the top earns, the bottom dies, everyone is cannon fodder!
🧠Why has the Tron chain become a hotbed for scammers?
✅Transaction fees are low, costing less than 1 cent, suitable for bulk operations.
✅On-chain contracts are transparent but complicated, ordinary people can’t understand them at all.
✅Lack of strong regulation, scammers run rampant with almost zero cost.
✅USDT has strong liquidity and is the first choice for scammers to launder money.
🔐How to prevent being scammed? Remember these 5 golden rules:
1. Any 'airdrop' that asks you to transfer Gas fees is 100% a scam.
2. The mnemonic phrase only belongs to you; if others have it, they can clean out your wallet.
3. High returns = high risks? Wrong! High returns = high probability of scams.
4. Public contracts ≠ project safety, you can't understand the code traps at all.
5. If you encounter 'guaranteed profits,' run away immediately, don't be lucky, don't hesitate!
✅Final summary: Don't fantasize about getting rich, don't become a victim of 'smart people being harmed by their own cleverness.'
What to rely on to make money in Web3? Awareness! Awareness! Still awareness!
It's not about getting free coins just by moving your fingers, but rather you need to cultivate sharp eyes to distinguish between scams and opportunities.
