The Anatomy of a Farcaster Scam (and how to avoid them) 1. An account youโve most likely never interacted with will send you a DC. 2. The DC will compliment you or your work and ask for some type of collaboration, consulting job, testing, etc. 3. If you reply, they may throw out a large number for compensation and ask to have a call to discuss terms. 4. Usually, right before the agreed meeting time, something will go horribly wrong. The Google Meet or Zoom link they sent wonโt work. 5. You will panic. 6. They will pressure you that if you canโt meet in the next few minutes, they will need to move to the next candidate on the list. 7. But magically they will have a solution: they have another video conferencing tool that you can download right now and they know it works. 8. You click the link without a second thought. 9. Youโve been scammed and now they drain your wallet with malicious software. Letโs show a real life example.

Thank you for this well explained thread! I often check my requests and that same acc has sent me a dc which I ignored because the compliments about my acc were too grand lol, And now reading your thread wow they really work hard with these scams cause they genuinely seem very legit. Hopefully we all learn from this and remember not to engage with anything doubtful
