Hi people,
just to report that i got scammed with 2010 ADA’s yesterday.
I feel like an idiot. It was that stupid youtube video + website (adaglobal.org) comb.
I’m reporting here to alert others.
Will this scam ever stop?
MESSAGE TO THE SCAMMER: I’m sending this message to YOU (ADAGLOBAL.org scammer), who eventually still have the courage to navigate on these forums.
I ask that if you are conscious of your actions that you return my ADA (~3 500 USD) back to my address:
Sorry to hear of your loss of ADA. This scam seems to work best on the smaller investors looking to build their cache of ADA, which makes it all the more evil and insidious. If you ever wonder if a video is authentically that of Charles, just check two things:
Is the sidebar chat live and active, or “disabled”? If disabled, the video is not live, and immediately suspect.
Click on the channel link (“Charles Hoskinson” next to his photo) and see if the channel has hundreds of videos, as the real CH channel has. If it only has one or two videos or has none to display, it’s the newest latest scam video.
Then please, everyone who sees these videos running, FLAG THE VIDEO and report to YouTube so it can be taken down asap. You may be saving someone like JonCe from being victimized!! It only takes a minute.
I am curious cat, but I can’t find the Youtube videos that you’re talking about. Can you describe a little bit more how was that you got scammed? adaglogal.org is a dead link, maybe Google shut it down?
I didn’t mean to imply that all small investors are more easily duped. I am no whale by any means. I only meant that those looking for ways to increase their stake beyond their means are likely the target of these scammers, though they probably ensnare a few big boys and girls too.
