There is new scam going around crypto discords and telegram channels and it has started to pop up everywhere. The scam is pretty much where they are giving away recovery wallet phases. If you're going to import or try to recover the wallet it will say "Your ETH balance is 0 cannot send." It will ask you to pay for gas fees. People will find the wallet and will pay in ETH for the gas prices. As soon as a person deposit the amounth of ETH needed for gas price, the bot will record any of the balance changes and it will then instantly send the ether out to the thief address.
