Scam Alert: Fake GitHub Airdrop Targets CLAW Token Users
Scam Details
A fake GitHub airdrop scam is targeting users with promises of $CLAW tokens for GitHub contributions. According to the source, the scam operates through the following mechanism:
- Users receive messages claiming they've been "selected" for a $CLAW airdrop based on their GitHub activity
- The scam directs users to connect their wallets through a random Google share link
- This Google link redirects to a shady .xyz website
- The fake GitHub discussion where users get tagged and receive GitHub emails is at:
https://github.com/highwayskinkjump/OpenClawEco-4828884/discussions/7
Security Warning
This is identified as a wallet-draining phishing scam. The source explicitly warns:
- Do NOT connect your wallet to any links from this scam
- Do NOT sign any transactions or approvals
- The use of a Google share link followed by redirection to a .xyz domain is a common phishing tactic
GitHub-based airdrop scams typically work by creating fake repositories or discussions that appear legitimate, then using GitHub's notification system to reach potential victims. Once users connect their wallets through the provided link, the scam site can request permissions that allow attackers to drain funds.
