Am I just being phished? (HELP)

I need your help urgently.
Is there any way to stop this transaction (def242414527196543aa201c1bdc3bdb5cf0af86132b1f2ec384eecfd3e57173) or get my funds back? SundaeLabs<dot>org appears to be a fake site.

Am I just being phished?
On 1/16, I received the following 1 SUNDAE Reward Ticket transaction (23a4b125ea7103c0f482fefe07b15f16ec377309848edcae93d1122580ae3fca) in my wallet, and I performed it without question, thinking it was a procedure to receive SUNDAE rewards.

Is there any way to freeze my funds from this transaction or get them back?

Yes.

The “Reward Ticket” scams have been going on since beginning of December in various forms.

No project will ever do airdrops/rewards by just sending you unsolicited NFTs with links to connect to.

I’m afraid not. Cryptocurrency blockchains are designed to be censorship-resistant and once transactions are recorded there is no way to roll them back. We are advertising that as a feature.

Only chance would be that the scammers get caught and are in a jurisdiction where there is some way to hold them accountable. I’d say chances are rather slim.

Thank you for your reply. I wish there was a way to freeze and recover funds from phishing addresses(stake1u80m2lc9mxext8rwcarnjvgv6a5tvscwqsawvcv0vud2aygwswzgf)… I wish Cardano governance had a way to rescue innocent victims.

I performed this transaction in the Eternl wallet, and it would have been nice if the Eternl wallet had at least a feature to warn me about recent scam tokens!

We also need measures to prevent scam tokens and damage at the level of our Cardano Community.

^ WARNING - These are all scams !! ^

Here are my losses:
10.279 Sundae
1.500 Milk tokens
101.155 snek
1.000.435.423 Hosky
(value of about 2000$ at time of writing)

A first step towards more security (without sacrificing decentralisation) would be if a user can block transactions being made to his wallet. Otherwise scams like the above ones will probably remain a pest. Imo there is not enough warning about scams in general.

Sorry for your loss buddy, you’re not alone.

Thanks and best.
