Is this the new style of crypto scam?

[Uplifted]

This is not really new in this crypto space, there are a lot of scammers that want to hack into unsuspecting and gullible airdropers wallet. There are so many scam projects especially in this Defi era claiming to list immediately on Uniswap but request for personal details of participants.

This type of scam has been around since the early days of crypto wallets, I I also doubt exchanges that required users' private keys.
Participating in the Bounty or Airdrop is your own decision, but never hand over your wallet's private key/seed phase/password to others. It's the fastest way to lose all of your wallet's assets

Yes sir you are right because hacking is the most important and common features in cryptocurrency market. Now a days hackers and hacking creates an impact on cryptocurrency exchange. Bounty sacms, hacks investors funds, just concern of worries that destroy any cryptocurrency market and exchange. A few days ago kucoin centralized exchange hacked over $280 million worth of assets. It just makes kucoin more uncomfortable and unfavourable among the investors.

Crypto scams not a common problem in our cryptocurrency market cap. It was before, now and still will have in future. Some projects running ieo on exchange but after collecting funds from the investors the flewed away from the exchange. I already victimed such kind of projects, Cindex a scammed project which already completed ieo on bitforex but a scam project. King(casino) scam project run ieo on Latoken, p2pb2b and other.

Infact there are many scammers around and when we talk about airdrops there are many fake ones who are infact try to steal your data to hack your wallet or use your data to claim rewards from other campaigns.
So do not be greedy and be watchful all the time online.

...On the Google form is something else, they were asking for our trust wallet Recovery phrase.

This is exactly a scam.
A scam will always ask you several things that are very annoying and also important details, such as:
1. Asking for the important and crucial details like private key, PIN, Password, recovery phrase, and others.
2. Asking you to deposit funds in order to withdraw.
After you deposit it, they will be gone.
3. Promising for high profits
It is like when they do a scam investment, they promise us big profits that will really attract many people, especially the newbies.
4. Giving big rewards
It also happens on the scam that they run ta program and the participants will get very high rewards by doing easy tasks.

If you meet at least those 4, it is better to leave it, because it is commonly and mostly a scam.

I stopped participating on airdrop since they no longer have value and most of the time, they don't pay, you can participate on legit ones from Airdrop detectives.
You have to be careful when some project offer airdrop, there are many of them in this space with scam tactics, they knew airdrop members don't really have knowledge about cryptocurrency that's why they used this tactics to fraud and prey on innocent people.
By the way, why don't you just try Bounty, they are more profitable than airdrop though it will require a little of your time.

I might give them a try, but I no longer trust airdrops, only a few of them eventually pays their bounty hunters, and I have came across a few airdrops where they said the members of the group should send a particular amount of Eth to a wallet for them to get verified, their excuse is that they don't want cheating, I just left there immediately I saw that message, airdrop is a shadow of its self now since scammers came on board.

There are a lot of airdrop scams in my opinion, there are various ways they cheat, from asking for prhase to sending eth, trx, doge on the grounds of a fee, one friend said if one airdrop asks for a fee leave them it ,cos they are must be a scam project,

Your friend is right, any airdrop team that asks for a small amount of money in exchange for their token is a scam.

There are equally good and genuine  opportunities to earn passively with the little funds one has, personally    I earn a good APR up to 23% by staking $AWC on my desktop wallet from atomicwallet.io

Wow, that's great, I will do a little research about this, but thanks for informing me  .

Scams can happen in all styles of crypto projects. It is not about new style or old style, we must be careful on both styles. Especially about the promotion of the project in social media, there are too many scammers there. So, be careful and always do deep research before deciding something.

Thanks for awesome information sharing

[Prime]

So it asks your privace detail? Plese ignore it because it is totaly a scam.
Be careful when oining certain programs, airdrops, and also investment that require those such crucial things. They will take your phrase and no one nows what will happen next. That is why it is better to ignore the program and focus on the other programs again

[xeroz]

There many style of scam, right? You just know about it, we don't know if the style already used by scammers for a long time. Indeed, the information you wrote is very useful, now we must be more careful to double check every crypto promotion. I think crypto scam is the issues to happen for years, it is not a new issue.

Accuracy is needed in the crypto world, especially if you have to fill out a google form.  In the current DeFi era there will be many projects that give airdrops to the public but more than 75% are scams, always be alert and once again have to be more careful.

[Rubel007]

There are many Twitter accounts have 100k flowers sometimes they offer to share  and retweet the post and they give coins or some air drops but when complete their all recomendation then they are not response. This is the one kind of scamer that i introduced but there are many in trade market   

[Shahinaz]

there are many ways and many steps to be able to scam many projects that currently scams only require skills from managing websites and telegrams, while for a whitepaper you can combine various kinds of successful projects it will be easy to lure investors into.
