Here's the deal: legit platforms won't slide into your DMs asking for money. Period.
If someone messages you out of nowhere claiming they're from a major crypto tracking site and wants you to send funds? That's a red flag. Delete and block immediately.
The golden rule: Always double-check before moving your crypto anywhere. Scammers are getting creative, but their playbook is old. They create urgency, they impersonate trusted names, they promise solutions to problems you didn't know you had.
Protect your bags. Verify everything. Stay safe out there.

The guy is right. I was added once, and they kept sending me tracking tools every day, even asking me to transfer USDT. I just blocked them.

Directly block anyone in DMs asking for money. If you can't even figure this out, you shouldn't be in crypto.

Seeing people still fall for such low-level scams is honestly a bit amusing. The chip distribution shows that most retail investors lose out because of being "impatient"—a classic case of FOMO mentality.

ngl I'm really tired of this trick; it's always the same routine with a different skin each time.

Honestly, these days any "official" accounts that DM you are scammers. We need to be more cautious.

Seriously, every time someone falls for it. Anyone asking for money in DMs is 100% a scammer—don't hesitate for even a second, just delete it.
