[SCAM ALERT!] Free USDT? Too good to be true? This is an old scam but recently resurfaced again. The modus operandi is: as USDT is ERC-20 token, you can't withdraw the USDT without paying gas fees in Ether, when you deposit the Ether, there is a possibility that a smart contract is configured so that each time someone deposits Ether, it will be sent to another address instead. The fake wallet address given is just a lure.
