This tip based only on my experience how find if the airdrop is fake
few months ago i encounter a fake airdrop using a telegram bot.
An airdrop bot pretending as a real airdrop of coin already listed on CMC
first i search on coinmarketcap from there i saw the legit site..
second i search the telegram group chat
and ask the admin there if its legit airdrop or not and they said its not legit an airdropbot using the name of their coin
another fake airdrop i see last month is bitair also asking for selfdrop to buy their token
i search the bitair website and i find it.i see the twitter account from there website
and i notice on there last post was november 2017 if im not mistaken,
and bit air ico sale was ended last november.
both of this type of airdrop scam i noticed they both collecting a member for their telegram channel and collecting follower on their twitter account.and asking for selfdrop
i hope this post can help some newbie to avoid to be a victim of airdrop with selfdrop
any other tip on checking if airdrop is legit?
Don't get offend with my opinion I think most of Airdrops are dump and wasted! You know why because they are irrelevant in the sense of how could you convert it with that amount. besides most of the time it has not more than $10 in value maybe if you hold it for years and hoping that the value will reach $100 dollars someday. but that's not a reality the truth is Airdrop was created to gain Followers for the specific ICO community or to create and Artificial Hype.
