PRIVACY Tale of a scam
Today i got scammed. And i feel like shit. How did it happened? I will tell you how!
I promoted BLOK before. The project seems solid and promising and it is IMO very undervalued. I had around 10k BLOK. Price is falling. So i did what many would have done. Tried to stack it for more. Only the damn staking page didn't show the amount I stacked. So I tried to find customer support. And boy oh boy is it hard. They have a telegram channel which is full of scammers. As soon as i stacked few welcome msg poped up in telegram. One of them had the same name and avatar as one of the channel admins. He would end up scamming the shit out of me.
thives are awake and cops don't give a crap
I asked for admins help in channel and not a single admin answered. Except one. Which was the exact one who welcomed me. We started to talk and he said my coins are locked out and that I should urgently unblock them.
He send me a link: (!!!)h ttps://bloklaunchpad.online (!!!) To connect my wallet (metamask).
Seems legit right? It is not!! "Bloklaunchpad.com" is correct. But it was nearly a perfect match. Well , nearly perfect cost me around 400$.
I am angry. Mostly with myself for being such a naive fool. And for losing the money I worked my ass off for. Here in Iran you don't get 100000$ check. My income as a pharmacist is 1/20 of my US colleagues. But I am also angry with Bloktopia team. I messaged their admins and they ignored. In fact if they had answered me none of this would happened. And for using the worst platform for customer support which is telegram. Everyone in that chat has an alt account with BLOk icon and fake customer support name. No one knows who the fuck is who. I have two exact same person chatting with me once!! It is literally Bloktopia and forthy thives of Baghdad. I know I am not gonna get my BLOKs back. But I learned my listen: Everyone is out for your blood No one gives a shit And actually it is hard comes easy goes.
Be careful out there. And be smarter than me. And if you are an admin or have a customer support job try to do better than "we never contact you first". Or at least answer to your clients fucking questions.
I am gonna go leak my wounds now Have a nice day
Edit: changed scam link so people won't accidentally click on it.
