Hi everyone,
I just want to tell everyone about the new scheme of the scammer to scam. especially those people who really doesn't understand much about centralized and decentralized trading platform.
I have read several people posting about
arbitrage coins like for example MTV arbitrage
Please check this link as an example:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5050943upon checking what they the link that they are using, you can see that they are pointing you to Forkdelta.
when you check the trading on
https://forkdelta.app/#!/trade/0xcd53c76b8a350b7f9815d6ddc4617bf37c7288ff-ETH you will see a token named MTV (Multiversum). The scammer wanted you to think that this token is the same token found on IDEX.
Because there is really a Multiversum on IDEX.
But if you analyze very carefully the MTV on forkdelta doesn't match in IDEX because of 2 factors.
1.) they have a different smart contract. on forkdelta (0xcd53c76b8a350b7f9815d6ddc4617bf37c7288ff) , on IDEX (0x07a7ed332c595b53a317afcee50733af571475e7)
2.) The have Different token extension. Forkdelta (MTV) , IDEX (eMTV)
I hope that this short analysis will help others to avoid this kind of scam.
make your analysis first before trying to buy or invest on a token.
Analyzing something before doing is the most important part for us to be safe in crypto world, especially today where there are so many scam coins/project that keep on popping. Just like what you mentioned, i also had aver met the same coins code in different market but it also has different contract address.
