Elon musk made a biggest giveaway?

[Alichlas92]

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.

yeah right, maybe similar to what hypnotists do..
I think the loss comes from those who don't know about the current scam, they even keep it a secret so it's only then that they find out that they have been duped and start acting as if they have lost their minds… sad mixed with anger.

These scams are always aimed at users who are approaching cryptocurrencies for the first time. That added to the fact that Elon Musk is very well known and tweets about Doge, it is the perfect scenario to steal funds from inexperienced users who are not used to seeing this type of thing. It's a hard lesson to learn, but those new users have now learned to verify everything they read instead of believing things that will never happen.

Elon Musk is not a market catalyst, he appears at the right time and in the right place. Unfortunately, human greed cannot be eradicated

[Alichlas92]

they took advantage of Elon Musk's popularity. Actually, this scam is easy to guess. but it has been experience until now that all scams are easy to distinguish.

Unlike the case with projects that do not pay, they may be unsportsmanlike and irresponsible.

Elon Musk's name in the crypt has magical properties. Today, one pronunciation or mention of this name in the context of any cryptocurrency is capable of setting off a pump.

It is easy to realize that this is a scam for users with more experience in cryptocurrencies. For new users it is more complicated to understand, although common sense must be used first. New users (luckily not all) approach cryptocurrencies with the aim of getting rich immediately, they are not interested in technology or how a blockchain works, they only care about money and that makes them fall for scams like this one, and that is something that only knowledge and patience can avoid.

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?

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.

Yeah, on second thought, maybe his friend may not be a scammer, probably a naive newbie like our friend here, then OP.  Those scammers target those newbies and on telegram, they are fleeced daily via DMs where links are sent for them to click, and clicking it instantly drains their wallet if they allow the scammer

Exactly as you said.. I found many of them don't care about technology or how blockchain works, they just expect instant profit, instant character is formed. Among them also know that sooner or later there will be fraud, such as cloud mining for example, investment and investment. promise to earn 10 to 20% daily..they are crypto linked, but this in my opinion is a ponzi scheme money game.

The bad thing about this situation is that new users are scammed, as you say, in many ways, and most leave cryptocurrencies thinking that everything is a lie and a scam, those who stay and start reading are the ones who they will gain experience and they will understand things much better with the passage of time. I suppose that as in other areas of life, this can be called "natural selection", that selection separates one type of user from another, those who do not return and those who start their journey in crypto.

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?

This is already a well-known scam since last year but sad to say that others still fell for it. If that guy is doing a giveaway that requires you to send some BTC no matter how small or big the amount is, that’s automatically a scam.

Sad to say that these scammers are targeting the likes of Elon Musk to impersonate them claiming that they’re actually doing the giveaway but it’s not. We’ve seen that already in various social media channels like Youtube, Twitter, etc.

[Linda78]

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.

I am evaluating your opinion. Because it is a fake event. Such posts are made to fool the common man. Foolish people do many things out of greed for money. So I think this is We have to keep ourselves away from them because otherwise we have to face a big risk.

I also often see on my Twitter homepage about the giveaway from Elon Musk, but it doesn't seem to make sense because the value given is too big. I know Elon Musk is a billionaire, but I believe it is a scam.

[Speaker]

For me, even everything that Elon Musk says already turns out to be a scam and without any practical jokes.

[MUGNIA]

Congratulations for your friend getting a giveaway from Elon,
one thing that makes sense if Elon distributes 3 BTC for how many participants but if for 1 participant I don't think it's possible, try asking in detail or in detail the link that states he won the give away

No matter how much money Elon Musk has, Musk has never done that, and I don't think he ever will. Scammers put such large amounts to attract more people, especially people who are not familiar with cryptocurrencies. Any giveaway you see on Twitter and other social media purportedly run by the rich and famous is a scam. It amazes me that there are still people who believe that some millionaire is going to give them Bitcoin, Ethereum or any other cryptocurrency that has value.
