Scam alert! Fake Blur token airdrop websites prey on unsuspecting users — $300,000 stolen to date.
Scammers continue to prey on nonfungible token users looking to claim Blur token airdrops through the use of numerous scam websites.
The legitimate Blur platform is a newcomer to the NFT marketplace space and has made waves in the industry, with booming user numbers and trading volume a direct result of the platform’s three-phase airdrop incentive scheme. 10% of Blur’s total token supply was distributed to users based on their trading activity in its second token airdrop scheme from Feb. 15.
Data shared with Cointelegraph from Ethereum-based Web3 browser security extension TrustCheck reveals that over $300,000 worth of funds have been stolen from 24 different scam websites since Feb. 15. A handful of these websites are still functional, with users warned to be wary when connecting wallets.
