Lucie, a Shiba Inu marketing team member, recently took to her X account to issue a cautionary statement regarding “shady bad actors” infiltrating the cryptocurrency space.
Lucie highlighted the risks associated with these fraudsters, explaining that some individuals within the SHIB community have unknowingly amplified these deceptive accounts by retweeting their posts.
She emphasized that retweeting these shady accounts is not a display of intelligence, adding that these actors often sell their accounts to new users, further misleading the community. Lucie tweeted, “Enjoy, do as you wish, as long as you don’t scam people. Happy life!”

She also emphasized the importance of community vigilance, recommending that SHIB holders stay informed about updates within the ecosystem and learn how to identify warning signs of fraudulent activity.
Lucie explained that, in a decentralized environment, it is vital for users to take responsibility for their own security by remaining cautious and researching projects thoroughly before engaging with them.
