Shiba Inu ecosystem tokens SHIB, BONE, and LEASH continue to attract attention. This has led to an increase in the popularity of these cryptocurrencies. However, their owners must be cautious as scams targeting them are on the rise. The increase in scams is due to the growing number of fraudulent schemes targeting unsuspecting investors as the popularity of cryptocurrencies rises.
Scammers Impersonate SHIB, BONE, and LEASH Affiliates
These fraudsters aim to deceive investors by impersonating Shiba Inu projects or team members associated with SHIB, BONE, and LEASH. They create fake social media profiles, websites, or Telegram channels to solicit funds or private information from unsuspecting individuals.
An account dedicated to exposing scams and protecting the Shiba Inu community, known as Shib Army Scam Alerts or Susbarium, has issued a warning to owners of SHIB, BONE, LEASH, and Shiboshi.
Susbarium calls on the Shiba Inu community to remain vigilant, stating that scammers will not stop until they achieve their goals. The announcement reminds that these bad actors have gone so far as to copy SHIB sites and NFT collection names, transforming them into something they are not.
What Reminders Were Given to the Shiba Inu Community?
The warning also advises members of the meme coin Shiba Inu community to use only links from official sources. It reminds Shiba Inu investors to double-check for any inconsistencies in URLs.
The warning note, which provides information about the moves of malicious individuals, emphasizes that addresses can be manipulated by changing a dash or a dot. Without careful attention, these small details can indeed be overlooked.
Another important warning for the meme coin Shiba Inu community concerns the TREAT token of the Shiba Ecosystem, which has not yet been officially released. The community needs to be aware that fake Treat and Shi tokens not affiliated with the Shiba Inu ecosystem are in circulation. Moreover, these tokens are cryptocurrencies with no connection to Shibarium and are intentionally using the Shibarium logo in their scamming activities.
