TLDR:

NFT airdrop

This is one you will surely encounter at some point : an NFT just lands in your wallet and claims to be linked to a collection you own.

The scam is with the link in the description : it could either to get you to a website with a wallet drainer if you interact with it or it could download some malware to get your discord token access

Always check on the projects socials if there has been an airdrop for holders. Then if they confirm there hasn’t been any airdrop, don’t click on the link and just burn this NFT with @solincinerator

Malicious links in DM

You’ll receive many DMs on Twitter or Discord and some might be scams, most of them are meant to get access to your discord account token.

This token is stored on your computer and it can bypass the 2FA security if it’s in their hands.

Some links might also redirect you to fake mint pages with wallet drainer

Don’t click any links in your DMs, ever. Ask for a twitter username and look for it directly on twitter.

QR codes as verification in Discord server

When joining a fresh new server thinking it’s alpha, it can also be a scam project.

You’ll see it when the verification system is a QR code that you need to scan to get access.

Don’t do it !

It’s the same as the above, it will aim to get your Discord access token.
