A scammer is trying to steal from people in the NFT community by using a Mutant Ape Yacht Club NFT as a pfp. Several people from the NFT Twitter community have come forward over the weekend to say that the scammer has reached out to them via DM. The scammer’s Twitter profile has a Twitter hexagon profile picture of a Mutant Ape as a way to make their NFT scam look more real.
Also, some well-known BAYC holders are following the account, which could be a sign to others in the NFT space that it is a real deal.
