Definitely tell your less technical friends that have gotten into NFTs to NEVER open a .zip or .src file from an unknown source!

Nice story to read, where the scammer was the one to be duped and he realizes that afterward that he was outsmarted. I'm just thinking that every time he looks at the "alien" he realized that how intelligent he was. But if the scammer is bright enough he will sell it and renamed the alien with his true story "How smart is the Alien" or "The alien change my life" this might hit even 1eth for the nft item to be sell or auction.

Great read to go along with my morning coffee. Now that how you get back at a scammer. Ins ant karmic retribution. I hope others follow suit and ask for that retainer before clicking away at random links. It sucks someone is out their doing such things but I hope folks start to move with a little more caution

This really is a fantastic idea. Jeremy does more research on people than most though so I am not hopeful this will become standard practice.
