Hello and welcome to all the readers.
Yesterday in inleo discord, i got a message that my ticket was closed. When i checked the ticket i did not find any response. So, i created a new ticket linking with the previous one.
Then i went into inleo general section and added a message that my ticket was closed without response.
In reply, i got a message, that the ticket system is loaded, create a new one to get quick result. There was a link too.
I responded, that i have already created a new one.
In reply, i was told to use the link.
That's where my stupidity kicked in, i clicked on the link, it was asking me to join a ticket server. I suspected to be phishing link, but it was past midnight and was looking for answer, so i joined.
The admin, asked me to create a ticket and then when i told him about the issue. He asked me about my account details. I gave him my hive user name. In reply, the admin, asked for my wallet address. metamask or trust wallet link. So that he can link it to my hive-engine and process it.
I did not give him my details, but probed him for more information.
Meanwhile, i went back to the inleo discord and saw that the messages send by this guy were deleted.
This confirmed that it was phishing link.
I did not wait for his reply, i deleted the new ticket server from my discord.
I am sharing this, so that everyone is aware and don't make the same mistake like me. It was a momemtary lapse of my judgement and could have cost me.
My learning from this incident is:
Do not click on any external links share within discord, however desperate you are to get a answer.
Ticket systems are internal to the discord group you join.
Free giveaways are good to be true especially when the amounts are big.
I did see, few more had clicked on the link. I am hoping they did not share their wallet link.
Thank you for reading my post.
Have a nice day.
