A couple of months ago, one of my Mutant friends messaged me asking if I wanted to be the "3rd Party Escrow" for a very similar scenario. I warned him it was suspicious, but he still wanted to entertain the trade. TL;DR, basically the same situation unfolded here. A scammer pretended to be me...
I and @thefunnyguysNFT have been the victim of a social engineering attack. My punk is gone. Feels surreal, will do my best to write up what happened, so others do not fall victim to the same exploit.
🚩 Impersonated my profile and claimed "things weren't working". 🚩Wanted to buy for 3ETH higher than floor 🚩Asked for the MAYC to be sent to a "New Wallet" Thanks to my diligence as the 3rd Party, I was able to help him avoid sending his Mutant to some scammers 🫨 Stay Safe!
