Susbarium issues a warning to the SHIB community about a fake ShibaSwap website: "Fake Shibaswap website, be careful out there." It also shared a screenshot of a fake Shibaswap platform with a fake website address. It urged users not to click on the link, whose sole aim is to steal users' funds.
Launched in July 2021, Shiba Inu's ShibaSwap is a decentralized finance (DeFi) platform with a decentralized exchange (DEX) and passive income-generating services like staking, liquidity pools and yield farming.
Interestingly, the fake Shibaswap website parodies similar features of the original Shibaswap DEX; hence, it takes only a discerning individual to spot the differences, which start with a fake domain address.

@Susbarium also alerted the SHIB community to a fake Shibarium Tech Telegram account, and the Shibarium Tech platform (SHIBT) has nothing to do with Shiba Inu.
Shiba Inu community members are also urged to beware of fake emails purporting to be from Coinbase, pushing users to click on links to secure their accounts and claiming that the phone number associated with their account has changed.
