BEWARE this scam!
just saw this scam posted earlier but was removed because the user didnt have enough karma.
scammer drops a wallet with the keys in public. within the wallet is the bait alt coin in the $X000s.
saying something like “leaving the crypto space. fastest fingers gets it, good luck!”
but heres the catch, there isnt enough ETH to withdraw/pay the gas fees. so the scammer sits and waits for gullible users to add ETH to attempt to withdraw the altcoin, then WITHDRAWS the ETH to their private wallet whilst the sucker is attempting to get the alt coin!
