First time lost money but I learned from experience

Today I spent some money and learned my experience. I clicked on the link to go to a website with a similar name to some well-known website, but it is not, it is fake, once you enter, you will be required to authorize and then transfer the money away immediately, everyone should be careful in the future.

Whether MetaMask can remind the user in different ways in the authorization contract and transfer amount, such as changing the background color, or other, to protect the wallet user.

Hi @moneysky ,

So sorry this happened to you. If you’d like to report the website, see how you can here:

When you say “changing the background color, or other” can you give more details to what you are thinking for the process?

For example, if you are interacting with a contract the background will be displayed in blue, and if you are transferring money to someone, the background will be changed to red

Gotcha. So even if it’s not colors, something that makes it really clear with what you are doing. Would you want to submit this as a feature request?

This is definitely a scam. Please revoke the approval and follow any further instructions you receive from the support team once they reply to your ticket.

By the time I was reading about the article to revoke the contract. Can we do it? But it says there will be a gas fee to revoke. And the balance is only 5 USDT left.

Should I do it?

Yes, this is a scam.

You can also create a new wallet and stop using the wallet you used to approve this scam.

But what about the USDT. Is there any chance it can be back to my wallet or it’s just lost.

I’m not sure what the actual details of the scam transaction are like, but most likely you will not be able to get them back.

Please ask any further questions with the support team through your ticket, they will be able to further assist you :slight_smile:
