I always thought my first official post on reddit would be a question or query, but unfortunately I come bearing a warning ⚠️. I, like many, leave crypto in our many wallets to appreciate in value over time, me for example, I don't check regularly, only occasionally, this time I discovered something in my Ledger Account under my Flare wallet, and unrecognised transaction from 2 days ago. I haven't checked my assets in more than a month and i received 0.357 BUGO token on my flare wallet. It seemed very strange so I looked up the transaction details and sender wallet chain history and i discovered many transactions of the exact same amount of BUGO. I did further research and it's a common scam attempt. From my research, if you interact with it by sending it, spending it, burning it or anything like that, it leads you to a malicious website that tries to get you to do many things like sign unknown transactions, seed phrase and so on. DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, interact with this unsolicited deposit or any unsolicited deposit for that matter. Just hide it in your account if possible and ignore it, interacting with it will cause problems. As long as you don't interact with it, only hiding the token, your fine, you assets are safe, its only after interacting with it that problems start
Beware of Unrecognised Ledger or other Transactions ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️
