Ever wonder what really happens when you engage with the Twitter spam comments?

Recently I stepped onto tons of people promoting an Uniswap frontrunning bot.

All of the links go towards one single video in which the person claims that you have to deploy the contract to magically make money as long as you deploy at least 0.5 ETH to the contract.

One of his claims are that you are able to make this profit by simply clicking start

Screenshot was taken from the YT video (avoid showing the channel to protect people in here)

Let's see what's really behind it.

That's the function you are supposed to start it with

Start does two things:

  1. Sends a message to your console
  2. Sends all the ETH that you ended towards an address

Second function call

Logic where you build the scammers address

This part here is then more interesting as he does a bit of math which looks quite complicated. Therefore let's execute that part on Remix (It's safe as I modified the code to return the address and send no eth at all while still executing it outside of the blockchain).

Here you go so you will effectively send everything to that address

You can see it here https://etherscan.io/address/0x3A721b54681a432828fd53ae1aB9cE77c4De0Dca#internaltx . The scammer has already made 6.8 ETH from innocent victims.

By the look of it, every single bot will post to another video where on each video there is a different address. For example, the Vimeo link in my screenshot goes towards this address https://etherscan.io/address/0xb10aab92Dd2243d93D7d9A0e22a7164b41CFAc78#tokentxns . Here we also have 5k+$ that have been scammed away from people.

TD;LR you don't get free money from someone's code. Most of the time when it's free you are the product.
