Hi everybody,
Lately I am reading a lot of posts asking: is this airdrop a scam? Is that free ICO a scam?
So I am wondering how can something that doesn't cost you a penny be a scam. Sure, they get your email adress and maybe a ETH Adress, but how can you  really be scamed with only this informations? I am not talking about airdrops that require kyc registration, that for sure can be dangerous.
Cheers,

Sometimes there are websites that wants to enter your private key just for an airdrop. And there are many pishing sites in which they will steal your funds in.your cryptowallet.

They've promised to give you some tokens but they do not send you anything so that's a scam because you've given him some personal information. They can sell your email as well as others and sell it for crypto related ads. For me it's still a scam because even though you do not spend money on getting the air catwalk but you give them your personal information
yups its not just because you dont spend time in airdrops meaning you dont have capital..the very moment you gave them you email is you have given them the rights of using that email to sell on ico to use as social media related campaign..this is the main objective of this damn scam airdrops.thismust be stopped or banned,airdrops as of today are nothing but bullshit
