A new XRP airdrop scam is circulating on social media, with scammers using fake accounts and websites to trick users into sending XRP in exchange for a larger return. The scam begins with posts on X, some of which are from verified users, claiming that Ripple is conducting a 100 million XRP airdrop under CEO Brad Garlinghouse's name. The posts lead to a medium article from a fake profile, which then takes users to a fraudulent airdrop website. The website promises bonuses for sending XRP and even includes fake testimonials. This is not the first time this type of scam has occurred, with other scams impersonating Ripple CTO David Schwartz and using false claims of airdrops after Ripple's legal victories. Crypto users are urged to stay vigilant and verify the authenticity of any offers or promotions to avoid falling victim to these scams.
