⚠️ PSA: There’s a new scam making the rounds - fake "mining" sites that ask you to join a "node.”
The site will attempt to connect to your wallet and get you to approve unlimited access to your tokens.
So far, they seem to be targeting mobile users & their $USDT.

@FlyGuyInTheSky This is worded inaccurately. CryptoScamDB has always been a part of the MyCrypto suite of tools.
It seems like this was taken from our merger announcement and replaced the word MyCrypto with PancakeSwap.... lmao
PSA: there's a scammer who set up a site at gitcoin dot fund that advertises a FAKE gitcoin app .exe (presumably malware)
pls avoid if you see ppl advertising that link.
@gitcoin A huge thank you to the 61 individuals who have chosen to support CSDB and our anti-scam efforts.
