No scammer would ever return part of the stolen funds to the victim. The tokens they sent are just another scam. The displayed value is entirely fake and intended to lure the victim into performing a swap or redirecting them to a phishing site. The scammers manipulate the value through the token’s contract.
If the token is not traded anywhere and there is no apparent trading volume, it is 100% a scam. Please be cautious. Interacting with the token’s smart contract could cost you high gas fees or expose you to further risks.
Thanks, yes, it's definitely a scammer and the value isn't real but I was confused as to why it was fluctuating. Great info re manipulating the value through the contract, thank you.
Are you sure that you are looking on same contract address? Because the price on wallet depends on the exchange that list it. Probably, it’s listed on a DEX that has a recent trade that’s why the price fluctuates.
If you can give the exact contract address we can give you a better overview on what’s happening.
A scammer will never refund funds in a form or other tokens. Maybe this token are one of those shitcoins that charge huge fees when you transfer it to other wallet or when you tried to exchange it on DEX.
