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.
I just think to give my opinion regarding your question, In my view that those icos are interesting to collect your email to distribute or make a verification process to avoid those cheaters of the airdrop. But in other reason that are not closing the possibility about to use your email to gain your data or something else that related to the criminalsm, But this wav obvious true about never try to give your email that has used to store all of your personal data.
