RE: Warning: A New Facebook Scam Is Stealing Hive Tokens

in #hive6 years ago (edited)

I just got a Discord message this morning about giving away free bitcoin. If someone off the platform is asking you to give them Hive, it's obviously a load of trash. Unless it comes from a whale posting it from here, linking to that mainstream social media post, I ignore all of them claiming free coins or the like. Unfortunate that people fall for these things. Even masking or making an account look as close as it can be to a legit one is a real pain in the ass. The steemmonster account on Steem has received a hell of a lot of cards and stuff from people leaving out the S at the end.

I saw that someone accidentally sent 180k powerdown Steem to an account that was so similar to the exchange account but was off by one character, I feel bad for the person who sent it. No matter what goes on, people will still be assholes, that's one thing you can guarantee on.

You just said what's important. In one line.

Hehe.

Found the post, poor guy sending it to bittrix not bittrex.

Shocked! A part of me was numb reading this. Damn! Thanks for sharing.

Yesterday's prices, that's almost 160k$ if converted 1:1 to Hive. Absolutely insane!
