Scammers are trying to capitalize on Forward Protocol’s token launch event to defraud unsuspecting investors. We learned that these scammers are creating fake Telegram groups and accounts impersonating the official Forward Protocol channel and team, including the co-founder, Karnika E. Yashwant (KEY).
Beware of fake Forward Protocol channels
In the fraudulent messages, the scammer informed the users that their wallet address had been whitelisted and asked them to participate in the PRESALE at “Forward.DAOMaker.com” or “DA0maker.com/company/forward.” The offering is fake, and people can easily notice the following red flags:
- The links shared in the messages are not official web addresses of the two launchpads – DAO Maker and MahaStarter
- There are fewer people subscribed to the fake Telegram groups than official Forward Protocol accounts.
Below are links to some of the fake Telegram groups.

We also noticed a fake web address (https://forward-protocol.com) which originated from Russia but posed to be from Forward Protocol. Note that the official domain name for Forward Protocol is (https://forwardprotocol.io/).
