Shiba Inu Team Alerts Public about Counterfeit Airdrops after Launch of New NFT Collection
Shiba Inu’s (SHIB) marketing lead, Lucie, is urging members of the community to stay alert after the release of the crypto project’s new collection of non-fungible tokens (NFTs).
On February 20th, the Shiba Inu development team unveiled the Sheboshi NFTs, which are digital collectibles that utilize the DN404 standard. This standard combines the functionalities of ERC-20 and ERC-721 tokens, making the Sheboshis divisible.
All 20,000 Sheboshis were quickly sold out even before the public minting phase, as holders of Doge Killer (LEASH) and Shiboshis rushed to acquire these new NFTs. Lucie explained on a social media platform X, “Shiboshis were introduced in October 2021, and the ladies that were introduced this week, Sheboshis, are their counterparts. We have a comprehensive breeding plan and a Shiba Eternity P2E (play to earn) lineup in store for us. So, while traders may be interested in the new hot thing, DN404, for us, REAL HOLDERS of Shiboshis, the current price is irrelevant.”
However, amidst the excitement surrounding Sheboshis, Lucie warned that malicious individuals may try to take advantage of the NFT’s popularity by spreading fake airdrop announcements. She cautioned, “Be cautious of scammers who post about airdrops and share phishing links! THERE IS NO AIRDROP – it’s a trap designed to steal your assets. Before clicking on any links on platform X, always visit the official Telegram or Discord channels and double-check everything for your safety.”
Airdrop scams employ deceptive websites, emails, and social media pages to deceive crypto users into claiming fake airdrop tokens. The ultimate goal is to gain access to victims’ crypto wallets and drain their funds.
