☀️☀️ SCAMMING ALERT PLEASE BE CAREFUL WITH “Owner GiG & agent GiG"

Hi Everyone,

I want to warn members about a scam attempt involving two Telegram IDs.

How the scam works​

​

First, they approach you as a potential buyer and say they are interested in purchasing your service. They ask for your pricing and service details, making the conversation look like a normal client inquiry but won't share their website info.

Then they ask for your USDT wallet address.

After that, instead of simply sending the USDT, they provide an external “withdrawal” link and claim you need to use the link to receive/withdraw the payment.


This is the major red flag.

They are using two Telegram IDs during the process:

• @owner_gig — “owner GiG”
• @agent_gig — presented as another contact/account for inquiries

The profile shown for @owner_gig also displays the phone number +48 883 121 938 and directs users to an external website.

Don't fall for the payment trick​

If someone is paying you in USDT, they only need your correct wallet address and the appropriate network. You should not need to click a random withdrawal link, connect your wallet, or sign an unfamiliar transaction to receive a payment.

Never provide your seed phrase or private key. Never connect your wallet to a suspicious website.

I'm posting this as a warning to the community. If these two IDs have contacted you with the same approach, please share your experience so others can recognize the pattern.

Stay alert, especially when a “buyer” suddenly asks you to use a third-party withdrawal/payment link.

Already got contacted by them both, good post. Noticed something was very off when one of them just kept pushing for payment instead of providing the website.

That’s a big red flag.

Good thing you noticed it before going any further.

Hopefully, posting the details here will help others recognize the pattern early and avoid clicking any withdrawal links or sending funds. Stay careful, everyone.

They constantly change Telegram accounts and scam people. The scenario is that they impersonate customers and ask to buy products or services from the seller, then demand payment and send files to the seller, asking them to open the files. I think it's a form of botnet. The first time he tried to scam me, he sent me an invoice generated through Coinbase and asked me to scan a verification code so he could withdraw money from my wallet.

All that effort to scam people, they should do something else with their knowledge...or just hang themselves if they are so useless, what a disgraceful way to live, just parasites sucking real workers

It's very disappointing.

Good thing you recognized the Coinbase verification trick: definitely worth warning other sellers about this pattern.
