Recent reports revealed that the Berry Pool scam event is currently luring Cardano community members and token holders with fake NFTs and false promises of ADA token rewards. 

“We want to bring to your attention that some Berry Pool delegators have received an NFT promising additional ada rewards through a deceptive/fake rewards event. Please be cautious as the associated website has been identified as a scam. Unfortunately, users who connected their wallets and signed transactions have already experienced losses exceeding 200k ADA,” Cardano stated. 

Following the warning, Cardano encouraged its community members to stay alert and be cautious of more crypto scam attempts from the aforementioned website. Cardano also stated that investors should always endeavor to examine transaction summaries before approving any transactions.
