Airdrops have been successful in recent years having been employed by crypto projects to build up their holder and subscriber base. Many people made a fortune from airdrops with the most popular ones being uniswap, dydx, ens giving users more than $10000 worth of tokens at Ath rate.
However, clones have taken up the Airdrop space with intentions of building subscribers not rewarding them. How do we detect these clones?
Lack of Verified identities: Most of these scams just have a twitter, telegram or discord channel. These are easy to create and can be edited or disposed anytime. Watch out for these when signing up for an Airdrop. The more verified, the more legit.
Clone identity: This is a popular way of detecting scam airdrops. They often clone the original account of successful crypto projects which deceives people. They edit the profile once they've gotten the amount of subscribers needed. Always do your investigation to know the original accounts of crypto projects.
