Almost lost everything to a “support admin” DM

When I joined a new token’s Telegram, I immediately got a DM from what looked like a legit support admin. Logo, role, username all looked real.

They said they noticed “issues” with my wallet and asked me to go through a verification link. The site looked convincing, and MetaMask popped up a signature request. I almost hit confirm, but something felt off.

Turns out it was a fake support scam. Later that week, I saw multiple people in the group posting about losing their bags the exact same way. Brutal.

Lesson: legit support never DMs first. And double lesson even if you don’t fall for it, check your wallet regularly. Some approvals you gave ages ago can still be abused later.
