Beware of fake Bitcoin offline wallets dropped on the streets in Vienna. It's a scam.

in LeoFinance9 months ago

Achtung vor gefakten Bitcoin-Offline-Wallets, die angeblich auf der Straße in Wien verloren wurden.

Gerade geistert in den österreichischen Medien eine Warnung vor einer neuer Krypto-Betrugsmasche herum. Die Polizei warnt bereits davor.

Betrüger lassen gefakte Bitcoin Offline Wallets irgendwo liegen mit angeblich Tausenden Euro in Bitcoin.

Diese warten dann auf unehrliche Finder, die die Wallets nicht zur Polizei bringen, sondern selbst claimen wollen.

Um die Bitcoin zu erhalten, muss man allerdings eine Gebühr überweisen. Die Bitcoin erhält man natürlich nie.

Was sagt ihr dazu? Habe in Wien noch keine derartige Wallet auf der Straße herumliegen gesehen, werde aber ein Auge darauf werfen.

Fake Bitcoin Offline Wallet Scam

Beware of fake Bitcoin offline wallets that were allegedly lost on the streets in Vienna.

A warning about a new crypto scam is currently circulating in the Austrian media. The police have already issued a warning.

Fraudsters are leaving fake Bitcoin offline wallets on the streets somewhere with supposedly thousands of euros in Bitcoin.

These are then waiting for dishonest finders who do not take the wallets to the police but want to claim them themselves.

To receive the Bitcoin, however, one has to transfer a fee. Of course, one never receives the Bitcoin.

What do you think? I haven't seen a wallet like that lying around on the street yet, but I'll keep an eye on it.

Ich frage mich ob der jetzige dann überhaupt sich das traut wenn er sich nicht mit auskennt und womit muss der denn dann zahlen? Paysafecard?

laut den Nachrichten von heute Morgen,
ging es Hauptsächlich um Datenklau, ( Bank daten, Namen usw.)
und dann ging es um eine Aktivierungsgebühr ....

if its too good to be true then its definitely a scam.

damn scammers! don't they have conscience with the people they scammed?

Wenn ich so ein Wallet finden würde, hätte ich ein tolles Demonstrationsobjekt für meinen Bitcoin-Vortrag, den ich immer mal wieder für Neueinsteiger halte.

i thought the wallet for crypto is like a USB? isnt that too big to be a ledger or usb?

It's a paper wallet or just a QR code to a phishing site.

Wie viele Leute müssen darauf wohl reinfallen, dass sich das lohnt? Bei Geld setzt bei manchen wohl einfach der Verstand aus...

Thanks for the update on a beautiful topic. Honestly, with the way scams are spreading around, it becomes very difficult for many people to distinguish between genuine and scams.

This scam is a classic with many versions but I have never understood why someone believes they have won the lottery but first has to pay. It's absurd!

I’m sure the crypto scam will be enticing a lot of people and they won’t even think that those things are too good to be true
Thank you so much for sharing with us
I’d have to be extra careful

Just imagine the lengths they would go to just to dupe innocent people of their hard earned cash, I mean these fraudsters. I think more people need to hear about this especially in Vienna though it might not be only Vienna for long. Thanks for the info.

this is the first time im hearing about this scam. thank you for sharing. at least we are now aware of this new scams in the streets

!BEER

Irgendwie kann ich mir nicht vorstellen, dass jemand auf diesen Trick hereinfallen wird, sobald er sieht, dass er selbst Geld schicken soll. 😂

Kann ich mir auch kaum vorstellen, vlt ist die Gebühr als Transaktionsgebühr getarnt oder so.

Kann mir schon vorstellen, dass der eine oder andere drauf einfällt. Jetzt wo Bitcoin wegen dem Preis öfters mal in den Mainstream-Medien auftaucht, ist der Begriff präsenter.

There will always be crooks! Whenever someone is asking for a fee you know it's bogus!

You have to be careful with these things, there are more and more scammers.

Didn't hear about such scams so far. As crypto becomes more widespread, so will the scams..

I've heard of many scams, but not this one. They better stop littering the streets.

It sounds like a weird scam but I am not surprised to hear that the scam exists.

We must be very careful of all these fraudsters

This is exactly the way we see nowadays every person is engaged in scamming and should stay away from all these people.

We should be careful of fake bitcoin wallet
