Re: Scammers are using the name of Airdrop to take the wallet's private key.
Many people consider Airdrop as free money, so people participate in various airdrop in the hope of getting something for free. But scammers take advantage of people’s interests here, they create different types of fake airdrop websites and promote them using different media.
So we should not think that any crypto user no longer participates in airdrop, there are still many users who easily fall into such traps.
We don't know, there might be a complete newbie that heard this airdrop from someone and bought 1 ETH for the sake of this airdrop
It is possible. Lots of scammers around, it's hard for a newbie to control himself. With scammers everywhere, newbies often believe the wrong information and fall into such traps. So those who follow this BitcoinTalk community can protect themselves from such scams, because there are many members who exopse all kind of scams to warn everyone.
