Recently I have read news about a scam that involves SpaceX, a well-known company, that declared to be giving away Bitcoin.
A Spacex bitcoin scam has frequently appeared on Youtube, claiming to give away BTC. Its promo video features the recent SpaceX launch with two NASA astronauts and an interview with SpaceX and Tesla CEO Elon Musk. The scammers claim that anyone sending bitcoin to them will be “airdropped” twice the amount sent.
I have dug a little down to this and found out that this kind of scam method has appeared years ago. Now it's back and there are people who claimed to be scammed.
Why is everyone keeps getting scammed by something so obvious and repeatedly happened? If a big company like SpaceX really wants to hold an event like that, what should they do to prove people that they're real?
