... the site looks so legit and on .com
so I had to check before I might lose my "free BTC".
Don't be deceived. A site being on
.com doesn't prove it to be legit or not. After all, BTT (this site we're on) is on .org, and not .com yet it's as legit as it can be. The .com thing is an old trick of scammers. Flee, bro. BTW, always use
coinmarketcap or coingecko to access any exchange you want to make use of to ascertain level of authenticity.
