On social media platforms, any unsolicited request from strangers for a transfer can generally be considered a scam. This rule has virtually no exceptions.



No matter how the other party disguises their identity—claiming to be a blogger, influencer, or a known friend—any involvement of money should raise your alertness. Those carefully crafted excuses (travel expenses, emergencies, investment sharing, etc.) may sound reasonable but should still be approached with caution.

More covertly, scammers may steal others' information to operate on various social platforms, creating fake identities to build trust. Once you let your guard down and make a transfer, the funds may never be recovered.

Therefore, the key is: protect your wallet's private keys and personal information from leaks, and be suspicious of all active money requests. Safety always comes first.
