Elon musk made a biggest giveaway?

[Arslan0049]

I saw one of my friends posting about the biggest giveaway by the Elon musk. and in this regard, he received 3 BTC. Is this real or fake? because I check out Elon musk's official Twitter account but did not get any post about this? Does anyone who received or participate?

are you sure your friend received 3 BTC from elon musk giveaway? 3 btc in my opinion is a pretty big value for a giveaway.
maybe you can ask and ask your friend to be honest.
your friend is very lucky.

I don't think anyone gives 3 BTC to a single person as a giveaway as you said you could not find any tweet of Elon so you must understand it must not be real. If your friend received 3 BTC he might get received by mistake I would say he is lucky. You must ask your friend again he must be joking.

You can check if he is joking, or if his account has been hacked. If he says he got 3 BTC, he is lying, or unfriending him. We have had enough scams in this market. ElonMusk never carried out any giveaway!

@Arslan0049, you haven't found anything on his official Twitter account because it's a scam. It will be the typical scam of sending 0.1 Bitcoin and receiving 0.3, it can also be with other coins/tokens. A few weeks ago, a scammer even ran a scam using deep fake tools in which Musk appeared to speak in a video saying he was going to launch an exchange. There are many ways to verify things, never believe the first thing you see and less if it is someone who wants to give you money.

You don't even need to think twice to know its a scammy scam. You even went as far as checking Elon Musk's Twitter handle. Those gave been running scams since time immemorial. They target popular crypto KOLs. At a time, Vitalik Buterin had to add 'Not a giver of Eth' to his Twitter name to prevent people falling for that kind of scam. But still yet, it happens. Are you sure that your friend isn't a scammer?

I think you have to be careful because there are so many people who want to try to give false information to cryptocurrency traders who are just learning, and I think those of you who already have a Hero Member rank should already know that it is fake.

Maybe Arslan0049's friend is not a scammer. Keep in mind that there are new users in crypto every day, and many only see the "slogans" like when lambo when moon. Those users are just looking for quick profits without any knowledge about the industry, and it is precisely to this type of users that these types of scams are directed, thei do not verify anything, thei do not read anything, thei only see a tweet with the image of a famous person, that is what attracts attention.

maybe he was really joking... but maybe his luck..

is it your friend in real world or in virtual world?
The virtual world is full of fakes.

It's most likely a Youtube (or similar) scam which requires people to send some money first. Elon Musk, Bill Gates, etc., famous figures often being used in a fraud scheme to lure newbies.

[Alichlas92]

maybe like that. nowadays even though it is easy for people to get information, still most people are fooled by sending money first and they will send bigger ones. .

my wife's sister a few weeks ago sent over $3000 to a scammer.

If there was such a draw, they have been talking about it for a long time and everyone participated in it, especially such a huge jackpot. If such a rumor has gone, maybe he will come up with a prank in connection with such a situation.

Sorry to hear that bro, these scammers sure have the convincing strategy to lure newbies. I personally reported so many fake accounts on social media, but there are too many of them.

I think schools have to start educating students to spot scammers, otherwise batches of new suckers will be generated every year.

[TomPluz]

With no need to investigate or even open a link for that question, the answer is that it is an absolutely scam proposition. People who can still be victimized by this so called giveaways from famous personalities must either be a very newbie to the crypto game or must have been living in the cave for the past 10 years without experiencing the use of the internet. This is a very popular scam and we should not be victimize by that. Anything that is asking us any money in exchange for a bigger money or asking as private keys and even personal information must be suspicious.

At one glance you can definitely assume it is scam. No one will give free 3 btc to anyone else unless it is payment or first step to conform your wallet and then steal your funds soon. Another possibility is to steal your money at any cause, you send first and they don't return your money anymore.

Btw, Elon is Elite and not crazy to give his bitcoin asset in a simple ways without hard work. If he will giveaways Doge, that would be real.
