There will be no metamask-airdrop snapshot on March 31, team member warns of fraud

The cryptocurrency wallet provider Metamask warned the community of rumors about a fake airdrop of a mask token that has circulated on social media. The deceptive rumor includes the implementation of an official token snapshot or Airdrops on March 31st.

The Metamask team confirmed that such posts were wrong and added that such rumors were "dangerous" because they open up opportunities and phishers to attack crypto users.

There are a lot of people who don't know what they talk about when they cheer a "metamask token-drop snapshot on March 31". The phisher will probably be in large numbers that day. Please take your FOMO vaccines now. 💉💉💉

At the moment it does not seem to be an application in which we are experimenting with our metamask with shapes of tokens, which is a way for every external developer to apply and then essentially have all employees in Consensys who use our Metamask Grant.

This is very different from what the wider ecosystem requires from us, but this has an important benefit and application to actually decide which projects get money. We will see where it will lead in the future. ”

The fraudsters "poisoned" essentially the transaction course of the wallet with addresses that seem to be similar to those who have recently made transactions a user.
