If you see a post or get a private message linked to a rewarding event, “Grand Prize Pool,” of 2,000,000 $EOS, do NOT visit the website.

This is a scam.

I have attached a screenshot that shows that the website has misspelled Brendan Blumer's name.

The website asks users to send $EOS to an EOS Account and promises more $EOS. When a user sends $EOS, the user will not get any $EOS in return.

**Note:** Do NOT send any $EOS to this account, or you will lose your $EOS.
