Congratulations is a great message, a really great word to read and to hear from everyone, it's actually a great motivation too as congratulations means achievements and success. But what if it comes from a scammer would you still be happy reading that words?

Eventually, now I'm really sleepy as I regretted that I slept late last night because of waiting for that da** announcement, gosshh!

As I joined the whitelist for the NFT giveaways of cyberdogz NFT, I open an account in discord just to be updated for their giveaway and last night was the most awaiting night for all the participants. I entered the chatroom and patiently wait for the announcement, while the other members are complaining as they still haven't received the free NFT. I sent a message to remind everyone that "patience is the key"as the admin had already remind everyone that they can't immediately sent the NFT to 1400k addressees in just one click, and everyone agrees. Then suddenly i received a reply that being verified is also the key to get the free giveaway, lol I found it sounds sarcastic, but indeed I'm thankful that I found out that I'm not yet verified. I don't use discord so I don't know what they mean, until everyone got curious if they are also verified and so the admin sent the verification link to get verified. I then click the link and successfully get verified, atlast πŸ˜….

I again waited, until the admin posted the announcement that the NFT is already listed and they also posted the address for us to check, they mention that we can that NFT in our" hidden tab" in open sea.

I don't know what does it mean anyway, lol. Until I got tired of waiting as I don't even know what am I waiting for πŸ˜‚πŸ€£. I have read some messages that they already bought the chair, and so I got curious, if there's really a free NFT or we really need to bought it. I just continue observing as I have also read some messages that they are still waiting for the free NFT. Not until I receive a personal message saying that I got a free NFT as I am also the chosen one, charot 🀣

I was happy reading this and without any hesitation I fill out the form to claim my NFT. But after submitting it, I didn't see that display page that I successfully claim my NFT so I ask the admin of why I didn't get the ID for my NFT.

And our conversation goes like this...

The end........

All hope's and excitement are gone as it is clearly a scam🀣🀦. I was really annoyed and pissed off, as I've been waiting for that NFT but I just encountered the big scammer. Luckily I didn't use my wallet where I store my other crypto's, otherwise I'll be in a big trouble nowπŸ˜‚. Most of the time I won't deny that I'm very much negligence, so silly πŸ˜….

__________________________________________

Realization;

I realized that not all congratulations meant to be a celebration, as some of them are also meant to scam you, so before you get excited, make sure that it's not from a fake admin and make sure that you didn't use the wallet where you store your other crypto's to avoid losing them, be cautious and be aware as scammers are everywhere.

Anyway I know that everything has a gas fee but I don't think it would be has high as $80, specially if it's free πŸ˜ͺ. Eventually I won the eye of the scammer πŸ˜œπŸ˜œπŸ˜‚πŸ€£.

I'll be giving up with NFT lol. No more participation, I'm tired πŸ˜‚.

You almost fell from the scheme of those scammers. Luckily, you had intuition and saw through the scheme and leave. This kind of scamming is kind of typical when it comes to free giveaway or airdrop.

There are a lot of scammers sis that's why we need to be careful. Even me too I was really shocked. It's a huge amount already. $80 for gas fee. It's obviously a totally scam.

Scammers are everywhere. If they were asking you some amount. Don't take it seriously because it's surely a big scam. They are really expert sis. They are using "Congratulations" so the people will caught their attention and to be fool.
