🚨 NEW ANONYMOUS REPORT: Large-scale “remote job crypto workstation” scheme linked to carvanaosg.com — PLEASE SHARE WIDELY 🚨 A victim has anonymously reported losing over $70,500 CAD (~$38,741 USD) after engaging with what was presented as a remote job opportunity connected to Carvana — but which allegedly redirected them to the domain carvanaosg.com. According to the report, the victim was contacted by text messages claiming to be from Indeed, then followed up by a person calling themselves “Sophie.” They were directed to a website designed to look like a legitimate Carvana operations portal, and instructed to complete “pre-programmed review tasks” in exchange for crypto-paid commissions. The submission describes a classic escalation pattern seen in task-based crypto deposit schemes, including: • Small initial tasks that paid out successfully • Requests to open a Crypto.com account • “Combo tasks” that push the workstation into negative balances • Pressure to deposit additional USDC to clear those balances • Gradual increases in required deposits ($140 → $1,501 → $5,001 → $10,900 → $23,000 → $43,000) • Constant reassurance from the “trainer” that funds were safe • Repeated withdrawal blocks at higher VIP levels • A reported receiving address: 0xaf88d065e77c8cc2239327c5edb3a432268e5831 • Domain involved: carvanaosg.com This type of structure mirrors what many victims describe as “workstation balance traps” — systems designed to simulate legitimacy until deposits escalate beyond recoverable amounts. If YOU were the person who submitted this report — or if anyone else has recently interacted with: • carvanaosg.com • Remote job offers supposedly from Indeed → Carvana • WhatsApp “training groups” for crypto review tasks • Sudden negative workstation balances • Wallet activity involving 0xaf88d065e77c8cc2239327c5edb3a432268e5831 👉 Please contact @CrestGuardRP privately. Early reports help alert others before they deposit into similar task-based crypto platforms, and your information could assist in cross-case pattern detection. #CryptoScam #RemoteJobScam #Carvana #Web3Security #ScamAwareness #CryptoSafety #TaskScam #USDC #CryptoFraud #StaySafeOnline #BlockchainSecurity #CryptoCommunity #ScamAlert #OnlineFraudPrevention

🚨 **NEW ANONYMOUS REPORT: Alleged Aave impostor site draining user funds — PLEASE SHARE** 🚨 A victim has anonymously reported a painful incident involving a site operating under the domain **aave-access.com**, which appeared in a comment thread shortly after the official Aave app registration opened. According to the submission, the site claimed that users who had interacted with Aave Lending in the past 16 months would be “moved up the queue” if they connected their wallet. After connecting, the victim later discovered that **nearly all EURC loan positions tied to their Aave Base Lending portfolio had allegedly disappeared.** The report cites: • Wallet involved: **0x9bd0a6c23a3796f101967ded53157ac80327d2aa** • Reported receiving address: **0x498Dc5153F5BB71801049281ECB6F378B284B166** • Reported domain(s): **aave-access.com** This pattern matches what many describe as **“comment-section redirect scams,”** where fake queue-boost sites mimic legitimate DeFi platforms and prompt victims to connect wallets. If YOU are the student who submitted this — or if anyone else has seen: • “Aave access/queue boost” promotions • Comment-section Aave app registration links • Interactions with **aave-access.com** • Suspicious EURC movements from Aave Base Lending • Activity connected to the wallet or address listed above 👉 **Please contact @CrestGuardRP confidentially.** Your information may help trace patterns and alert other users before they connect to similar lookalike sites.

🚨 ALERT: Newly submitted anonymous DeFi scam report — PLEASE READ & SHARE 🚨 A victim has allegedly lost $140,009 USDT after joining what appeared to be a high-yield DeFi staking pool connected to the domain 149.104.69.79 / assets dashboard. According to the submission, everything seemed normal until withdrawal time — when the platform claimed the funds were “stuck on the blockchain between blocks 7 and 8.” This unusual “block 7–8 error” was then followed by a request for additional payments to initiate a so-called ‘litigation process’ to retrieve the victim’s own assets — a pattern commonly reported in sophisticated *DeFi withdrawal-lock schemes. If YOU are the person who submitted this report — or if anyone else has faced: • DeFi pools tied to • USDT staking “block errors” during withdrawal • Platforms demanding extra fees to “unlock” or “litigate” your funds • Sudden liquidity freezes followed by pressure for additional deposits 👉 Please reach out privately to @CrestGuardRP. Your information may help uncover patterns and protect future victims.
