People tends to always be in a haste to do airdrops immediately they get the information without a proper verification maybe because the source through which they get the information is the reliable one but sometimes they might share wrong or fake projects without them knowing only just to get referrals first before they take their time to look into it and realise what they might have shared is wrong but if from the end you notice it you could avoid it and call their attention to it so that they inform their followers but the lazy ones do not bother hence put people in risk of getting scammed.
We must investigate before making a decision to follow especially in the hype airdrop project, there are many frauds by sending fake links to make claims. they will take assets in our wallet when we click on the link.
As you said, for those who are in a hurry will be deceived and this usually happens to newbies.

Actually, this has often happened, fraud in Airdrop. Especially if the Airdrop is about to finish and the Airdrop is successful, then the fraudsters will compete to get the most victims. They start spreading trap links or pishing links to trap victims. Usually social media such as Twitter, Telegram, even via Gmail they spread these links, therefore we must be really extra careful.

Yes, verifying to make sure it is really from an official project should always be done. I also sometimes follow airdrops and there are announcements to claim prizes, I always make sure that the link I use is official and we can see it directly from their official channel.

Actually, if we are not too lazy to do that, things like this can be avoided, but some people are usually lazy or forget so they get caught by scammers.
People tends to always be in a haste to do airdrops immediately they get the information without a proper verification maybe because the source through which they get the information is the reliable one but sometimes they might share wrong or fake projects without them knowing only just to get referrals first before they take their time to look into it and realise what they might have shared is wrong but if from the end you notice it you could avoid it and call their attention to it so that they inform their followers but the lazy ones do not bother hence put people in risk of getting scammed.
However, we have to take a little time to see again the information we get is really valid or not. Because even though we follow someone as one of our references in following a project, it does not mean that the person will not make mistakes, they are also human beings who can also make mistakes.

So it comes back to ourselves and I strongly suggest not to be lazy to analyze independently.

Fraud will always be present in every event that is currently being followed by many participants, such as the current airdrop, Because they know that there are many beginners who have just joined and are easy to trapped in anything that can lead them to follow directions so that their assets can finally be taken. Actually the trap, that are is spread is the same every time but because there are also so many new followers, it is easy to be trapped to open the ordered link and finally their assets can be taken. I think what you said is right, we must always be careful in accepting any link.

Yeah newbies are always easy targets for scammers. because they don't have enough knowledge and experience so they easily fall into the trap of scammers.

Often in these times, newbies who enter the crypto space are often the ones who fall victim, that's why many who have been here for a long time always give reminders about such things. Because if they are careless and rash, they will definitely lose or waste the funds they used to invest.

If scammers or hackers are smart, we should be smarter than them, so that we don't just fall victim or fall into their traps to be scammed.

Scammers are smart people whose behavior is bad because they are looking for benefits by cheating.
 We must always update what RIK tricks are used by Scammers today.
By always active in the forum we will read a lot of experience from friends here.

I always recommend that people learn how scammers operate, it is always good to be one step ahead of them. If someone chats you and offers you a job, you understand that recruiters do not reach out to your first, you need to be applying for a job, so if you have not applied for any job, you should know that it is a scam.

Just a few days ago, I've received what I believe is a "Task Scam" on Telegram, and knowing that it's Telegram, I immediately ignored it.

Let's think of this. People will not come to you randomly and will share an opportunity for you. Most of the time, it's you that will go and grab those opportunities. You can be one step ahead of scammers, but they will try and scam newbies out there. Like you said, it's always good to know how these scammers operate, and to add some knowledge into it, I always suggest watching videos online on how to prevent getting scammed.

Just think of this quote. "If it's too good to be true, it's not true." :)

By always being active in the forum, we can gain knowledge and experience from friends who share about fraud strategies. Indeed, we must always be updated about fraudster tricks and strategies and of course we must be careful in every transaction and follow or participate in airdrops because there are many fraudsters there.

They always hope that, from the many who have just joined, they can be cheated because they have little experience and do not always read information from everything on the forum like here. I agree, the airdrop is currently hyped and is always a target to be used to seek profit by scammers who always follow developments where it is easy to be targeted and to be cheated.

Many airdrop programs have been the target of many many scams in the past and it is because they can easily get the attention of the participants with name recall...sadly some can be victimized and be left with shock to realize later that they are scammed or hacked. It happened to me in the past via phishing and I was left speechless so from then on I really double check the URL before clicking on anything online. We have to be careful all the time and must be educated on how these scammers and fraudsters are doing their very lucrative business of victimizing people.

And never-ever click on the links they provide you for different reasons - info, answer the questions regarding the application, etc.
It will save you a hell of time and funds.

We really have to be extra careful here, because there are actually many traps given by scammers to deceive us.
The most common is through phishing links, one click and our wallet will be hacked. So we must always be vigilant with all our actions to secure our assets.

Phishing links or scams had been long time busted and being known but surprisingly on which there are people who are still that getting that victimized on which its really that something that shocking on which making use of your own sense then you wont be that totally making yourself that easily get fooled up. Everything which is really that seems too good to be true then it is really that a scam. This is why you should be that sensible into the things on what you are dealing into and this is why its really that recommended that you do really know on how to have that approach. If you are that a greedy type of person then you do really easily get fooled with these things. If you dont like to get scammed then dont easily make yourself believe on things because that will really be that a huge problem.
