A recent XRP scam

[kbh022]

I bought 'RIPPLE' (XRP) two years ago and stored it in my cold wallet.
On 25.07.2023, at around 15.00, I saw a false information shared by @BradGarlign https://twitter.com/BradGarlign/status/1678622055531675648 (account is now suspended) in twitter (screenshot is attached). The information was about a big giveaway scheme of XRP, in which the participants are supposed to send their XRP to a given wallet (rQDQxL8B71WvX9N9i4JBfq7GfUZMmnoDZ2) to get back the bonus amount together with the pre-submitted XRP. They have shared a link (https://crypto-2023.s3.amazonaws.com/payment.html) for this. This information was being spread further by some 'verified' twitter accounts. That's why I thought that the scheme is real and fell for it. I lost 1200 XRP (~$860).

For new users, it may be helpful to share the fraudulent wallet address with alert of not sending any XRP to that wallet.

They transferred all stolen 18157 XRP to a new wallet  rPhnKveHabc3ooinu9NdfovazJrQ8LhwHV

It may be helpful to say that there are NO XRP giveaways.
