Thanks for this thread. It's helpful. But since this section is for beginners, you might want to also specify and emphasize the distinct risks that this specific kind of scam tokens entail. If these tokens are launched, listed on exchanges, actively traded, does it not mean the scavengers can still make money from them, just like they make money from all kinds of scam meme coins, NFTs, airdrops, and whatnot?

Or are there certain hazards these scam tokens uniquely pose to owners? If there isn't much, are they not at all different from the great majority of altcoins? Is it therefore a solution to just avoid 99% of altcoins altogether?
