Fake airdrop
Also written or said as: fake airdrops, scam airdrop, claim scam, scam token
A token dropped into your wallet as bait, pointing you to a site that will drain you.
A token you never bought appears in your wallet, named like a reward: 'Claim 2,000 USDC at...'. The site asks you to connect and sign, and that signature empties your wallet. Do not visit it and do not try to sell the token; hide it in your wallet and ignore it.
