Giveaway Scam

A giveaway scam is a crypto fraud where scammers impersonate celebrities or companies, promising to multiply any cryptocurrency sent to them as part of a “giveaway.” Victims send funds expecting a return, but receive nothing. These scams often spread through social media or hacked accounts and exploit urgency and trust.
