I posted a question in a NFT Discord. Within minutes someone DMed me 'MetaMask Support' offering to help. They linked me to a 'wallet sync' page that asked for my seed phrase.

Seed phrase

How this scam type works

From our NFT & Web3 Scams guide.

  1. The hook. A compromised Discord announcement, a Twitter DM about a 'secret mint', or a phishing link in a project's official channel.
  2. The 'mint' site. A clone of a legitimate project's mint page, hosted on a lookalike domain.
  3. The wallet connection. You connect your wallet and are asked to sign a transaction.
  4. The drain contract. The signature approves unlimited spending of your tokens. Or it's a setApprovalForAll that hands over your NFTs.
  5. Instant loss. Within seconds your ETH, tokens, and NFTs are moved out. Irreversible.
