As a newcomer to ADA , i fell for a scam youtube website .
Using https://cardanoscan.io i managed to trace my ADA to an address that has 140.000.000 ADA.
So lets call this a dirty address.
I found another connected to that with 220,400,019.
So that is 360.000.000 dirty little ada ...  Shocked

I write to express my wonder when i learned that the scam site business  is rolling a year now , and the cardano community have trouble stopping it.
For  their defense even youtube seems that cant stop those scam videos.

So is there hope? Have other coins had coordinated scam site attacks with that duration and if yes  how did they manage to contain it?



Scams are unstoppable in general when it comes to crypto because there is no intermediate in between the sender and receiver so the sender needs to take all responsibility where they are sending their cryptos. But if you know that youtube is promoting a scam site via ads or by the contents itself then you can report it to the Youtube support, when the video received enough amount of report then youtube will take down the contents and channel itself.

And also the address can be reported and can be blacklisted on the exchange if you personally affected by such kind of scams.
