🔒 Common Web3 Wallet Scams

1. Phishing Scams

Fake websites or apps mimic real wallets or dApps to trick users into entering their seed phrases or private keys.

2. Fake Wallet Extensions

Malicious browser extensions impersonate popular wallets (e.g., MetaMask) and steal user credentials.

3. Seed Phrase Scams

Scammers ask users to "verify" their wallets by entering their seed phrase on a fake site.

4. Airdrop Scams

Users receive fake tokens that, when interacted with, lead them to malicious contracts or phishing links.

5. Approval Draining (Malicious Smart Contracts)

Users unknowingly approve malicious contracts that can later withdraw all assets from their wallet.

6. Fake Support / Help Desk Scams

Scammers impersonate wallet support on forums or social media, asking for credentials or offering fake “support links”.

7. Giveaway Scams

Scammers promise rewards (e.g., ETH or NFTs) if users send crypto to a wallet first—typical "double your money" scam.

8. Compromised Wallet Generators

Users use online tools to generate wallets, but these tools store private keys and later drain the wallets.

9. Social Engineering / Impersonation

Scammers impersonate trusted individuals (e.g., project admins) and trick users into signing harmful transactions.

10. Malware or Keyloggers

Installed malware records keystrokes or copies clipboard content (like seed phrases or addresses).
