Hi everybody,

I'm curious to know, especially from safety point of view, what's up with all these bogus Airdrops?

Now, I'm not talking about those that ask for your private keys, because that's obvious, but I'l more interested to know what a scammer can gain from simply having a list of ETH address and emails. Granted, they can see the list of emails, use it for spam etc., but is there any way they can use the information gleaned in a more malicious manner? Can they somehow use ETH address to target the unsuspecting user later on?

even if an Airdrop seems legit I still make it a point to always use a disposable MEW when signing up, but I don't know of a few people in another group that have fallen prey to this sort of scam.

Cheers and thanks for your thoughts.
