Slack Scam and the Future of our Community Communication Channel
As you may have noticed, there have been many scammers and phishing attempts around on the Slack channels of Blockchain projects (read more). Unfortunately also our official Blocklancer Slack channel has been infiltrated by theses scammers.
We are doing our best to ban scammers as fast as possible. Slack provides no mechanism against these scam. Many scammers use the reminder functionality of slack so that the slackbot itself is sending phishing messages to community members.
Like other projects we are looking for some open-source solutions that can fulfill the needs of our user base. As an alternative to slack, we already created a Discord channel and removed the link to our Slack channel from our homepage.
Currently we are also looking at Rocket.Chat and Riot.im.
Note: Please never follow instructions from any users on Slack to send money to any addresses. Please also check links that are sent to you on Slack. If you encounter any phishing attempts please immediately get in contact with the administrators of the channel.
