Shiba Inu Team Issues Warning on Fake Airdrops Following Introduction of New NFT Collection

Shiba Inu’s (SHIB) marketing lead Lucie is telling members of the community to be vigilant following the debut of the crypto project’s new collection of non-fungible tokens (NFTs).

On February 20th, the Shiba Inu development team introduced the Sheboshi NFTs, which are digital collectibles using the DN404, or divisible NFT 404 standard that merges the functionalities of the ERC-20 and ERC-721 tokens. 

All of the 20,000 Sheboshis were sold out before the public minting phase as holders of Doge Killer (LEASH) and Shiboshis – the male counterparts Sheboshis – scrambled to get their hands on the new NFT collection.

Says Lucie in a thread on social media platform X, 

“Shiboshis were born in October 2021… The ladies that were introduced this week, Sheboshis, are their mates. 

We have a whole breeding plan and a Shiba Eternity P2E (play to earn) lineup ahead of us. So yes, we know traders jump on the new hot thing, Dn404, but for us, REAL HOLDERS of Shiboshis, the price right now is irrelevant.”

Amid the hype surrounding Sheboshis, Lucie says malicious actors may take advantage of the NFT’s popularity to spread fake airdrop announcements. 

“Beware of scammers posting about airdrops and phishing links! 

THERE IS NO AIRDROP – it’s a trap designed to steal your assets. 

Before you click ON ANY LINKS ON PLATFORM X. ALWAYS visit the OFFICIAL TELEGRAM OR DISCORD and DOUBLE CHECK everything for your safety.”

Airdrop scams use fake websites, emails and social media pages to trick crypto users into claiming purported airdrop tokens. The goal is to gain access to the victims’ crypto wallets and drain their funds.

Gwadabe reportedly emphasized that Binance trading has increasingly established itself as a central point for both the Investor and Exporters window as well as the parallel market. Binance continues to experience an increase in regulatory heat as the Federal Government of Nigeria is being urged by the Association of Bureau De Change Operators of Nigeria (ABCON) to prohibit the activities of Binance within the nation.
