I’m going to cover what happened and the technical details of a crypto job scam that I’ve avoided. Let’s hope that it can be both entertaining and informative. It’s my second time encoutering this kind of scam. In the first time, I just ignored it as the sign is too obvious: a non-fitting job (frontend heavy job for a backend guy) where the recruiter is “impressed with my technical skills” and think that I’m “an exellent fit”. For this second time, I got fooled at first as it is too good, and after I realized it’s too good to be true and likely a scam, instead of stopping early, I just got… more patient and curious about what’s behind.
