Scam patterns.

Different branding, same old game: pressure, impersonation, and a transaction you should not sign.

Drainers

Fake mint or claim site

Looks official, maybe uses stolen art and comments. The dangerous part is the transaction prompt. Watch for asset movement, delegate approvals, authority changes, or unknown instructions.

Spam NFTs

“Burn to claim” bait

Random NFTs and tokens may point you to a claim or burn page. Treat those links as hostile unless verified from official sources.

Support scams

Fake wallet/project support

No genuine support agent needs your seed phrase, private key, or “sync” via a website. Anyone asking for that is trying to own the wallet.

Socials

Compromised accounts

Verified or well-known accounts can be compromised. Cross-check announcements across several official channels and the project site.

Domains

Lookalike domains

Typos, extra words, odd TLDs, redirects, punycode, and newly registered domains are common phishing tells.

Marketplaces

Fake marketplace pages

Clones of Magic Eden, Tensor, wallet pages, and launchpads are common. Bookmark the real sites you use often.
