Sharing some crypto scam stories

Recently, I encountered a scheme called "AI Automated Chain Scanning Trading Tool." Here's how to avoid falling into the trap:
The other party initially promised to automatically seize opportunities and generate stable profits, requiring an upfront payment of 1888 USDT. After payment, they only provided two open-source tools (which can be found on GitHub). Once I installed them, they demanded a "core plugin deposit" of 5888 USDT.
Key point: The core tools are never provided, and they keep asking for more money under various pretexts. There's a high likelihood they will continue to charge later.
These so-called "automatic chain scanning for profit" schemes are basically unrealistic—blockchains are full of scam coins, rug pulls, liquidity withdrawals, and other risks, which are hard to avoid with current algorithms.
Conclusion:
The tools are just a front; charging is the real goal. Any scheme claiming "automatic profit + phased payments" should be avoided at all costs. $ETH ‌#Gate广场四月发帖挑战
