Today i received a message from ([user:relita9302,2022-01-22]) a unrated account who said that i could be a tester if i sent a key to another codeforces account ([user:crowdforces,2022-01-22]), thing that i did, big mistake, i found out that when you sent that key you get some Near reward or something, i don't know about Crypto.↵
↵
Clearly is a scam and probably more fake accounts will appear, so if you receive a similar message from a stranger, please be careful to NOT answer and report.↵
↵
PD: English is not my primary language, sorry if i made some mistakes↵
↵
UPD:↵
It's quite concerning that a lot of you guys recevied similar messages, even people creating fake accounts to get cryptos.↵
↵
I also noticed that the messages i received got deleted (not sure if that account got deleted or just the messages), but it was exactly the same as [user:striver_07,2022-01-22] received.↵
↵
And i have a question for the people who know about Near: the account that the scammer got is actually linked with my account and will affect future contests? I have been in cf three years and i really don't want to lose this account, rather for an emotional attachment.↵

Special thanks to [user:MikeMirzayanov,2022-01-22] for adding a highly noticeable warning, and all the users that make cf a better place.
