Nei, UNHCR vil ikke ha donasjoner i bitcoin eller ethereum

I en av mine mange epostkontoer dumpet det inn en epost som utgir seg for å være fra FN’s høykommisær for fluktninger (UNHCR), hvor han ber om donasjoner til Ukraina i form av kryptovaluta i Bitcoin eller Ethereum.

Dette er selvsagt ren svindel!

Her er en dump av eposten jeg fikk:

Såvidt jeg kan se så har ingen av adressene sett noen transaksjoner enda, så det tyder på at ingen har latt seg lure.

Slett eposten like gjerne først som sist!
