Fake giveaway exploits target the high pokemon card price to steal money and personal information. Fraudsters create fake social media profiles impersonating big-name Pokemon collectors or TCG influencers. They announce massive giveaways for cards with an incredibly high pokemon card price, but require users to pay a small verification fee or click a malicious link to enter. The coordinates for this phishing exploit are planned out on underground forums, where bad actors share lists of victims and split the illegal profits extracted from exploiting the hype.
