We tell people nonstop: do not deal outside checkout tickets. Use checkout tickets. Protect yourself. But nope, someone thought they were smarter than the system. Result? They wired $6,000 USDC on Solana directly to a scammer.
hey, I’ll be purchasing @mi on X for $6000 usdc SOL

Scammer:
Confirming the deal of $6,000 USDC SOL for @mi on X.
We will be dealing in DM’s as agreed due to you/your friend not being VIP and cannot bid on the username. We will both be filming the transaction, not playing any games or scams.
After receiving the login information you will require codes where you will record of yourself logging in to the account to prove login works etc.

It’s true that scamming has unfortunately become easier, but so too has protecting yourself. The platform’s checkout system exists precisely for this purpose. As long as people continue to try to bypass the system by claiming they know, it becomes easier for scammers to do so. The key is not to underestimate security measures.

Well I do not think so if you know what a digital asset means. Offsite I see many people saying I Only use Telegram middle men and as soon as I hear that. , if its not on a reputable site, I am better off broke than lose an asset and Money at the same time. My hard. Some ones hard…6k
Everyone wants to evade it. System way better than anyplace I know on the internet. Do not forget the chance of having motivated and Smart people in one place.
Where do you think most of providers here get the services related to social media ? also some of top-tier members here have their own tele channels etc
Ugh, unfortunately this has happened yet again! New users were simply told by the scammer that they were in contact with Tedsk/me/other admins and decided to send the scammer (seller) funds directly without question anything or creating a ticket.
Again, escrow is required in all transactions and you must create a ticket.

Greed is something else or he bets all the money somewhere with 100 Percent guarantee.
