It seems that everytime there is a spike in bitcoin fee price and a rise in a number of bitcoin unconfirmed transactions, there is also a spike in a number of people who try to take advantage of that situation by scamming others, so beware of everybody claiming that they can accelerate your transaction. I have seen both scam attempts on that forum as well as false scamming websites. Prices for accelerating the transaction in legit places are on a boundary of scam as well, by the way.
The other category of scams I have seen recently are the false wallets taking advantage of recent air-dropped hard forked coins. You might try to use such a wallet to try to get your air-dropped coins and then you find out that not only your air-dropped coins are gone but your bitcoins are gone as well.
Good luck to everybody on avoiding the scam attempts!
