Uniswap is a cryptocurrency exchange which uses a decentralized network protocol. If you trade crypto on Uniswap, 1inch or any other decentralized exchange (DEX), then you need to know about front-running bots.

  • But since the scammer claimed that you have to send bigger amounts for this trick to work
  • The victim immediately sends 2.5 ETH (Proof) worth $4,000 to this new contract.
  • Once he sent the money to the new contract. The script runs and emptied the newly added contract and the money is shifted to this Suspected Wallet, which is an Ethermine miner pool address.
