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.

Thanks for the heads-up. Recently deleted a DM from someone saying something along the lines of: "You come off as an ambitious person and very suitable for a high-earning opportunity. Let's talk if this is something that interests you." Remember guys, it's 99/100 a scam if such "opportunities" are too good to be true or privately offered to you.
