Top Shiba Inu Team Member Reported New SHIB Scam On Twitter
Official Shiba Inu content marketer @LucieSHIB reported a new SHIB scam account on Twitter after the “Shibarmy Scam Alerts” profile (@susbarium) spread the word on his page.
The scam team operates through an @ShibaInuHQ account, and they offer a “gift” from SHIB, suggesting users go to their website for it. The account calls itself the “Official Shiba Inu Ecosystem Twitter Account” and features an image of the SHIB Metaverse in the profile picture field, attempting to mislead SHIB fans.
Now they are enticing SHIB fans with a “SHIB/BONE/LEASH” giveaway worth $30,000,000 for active Ethereum wallets. Either way, the fiat value seems to be too much for the giveaways typically run by real crypto/crypto exchanges.
The “Shibarmy Scam Alerts” Twitter account is urging the SHIB Army to report the aforementioned SHIB scam account, Lucie tweeted that she has already done so.

To pose as more legit, the fraudulent account retweets posts from the official Shiba Inu Token and SHIB Metaverse accounts. In particular, they retweeted a message on the Metaverse about giving away 10 virtual lands in the Metaverse.
A few days ago, @susbarium posted a message from a scammer on Twitter who claimed to have received a Shibarium testnet reward. The SHIB anti-scam account has warned the Shiba Inu community that the SHIB team has not been offering such rewards recently.
