They say you learn through experience. Its ok, I have been scammed terribly. I will explain everything here, if just in case you find yourself doing things in same order, you know what to do.

1) I have randomly checked bscscan on my bsc wallet address and I have seen that I have more tokens than I think I should have had. I participated in sh*tcoin airdrops and what not and I thought ok maybe I got some. 2) I have seen many alpaca tokens lying around. I have quickly checked the price of alpaca and it's more than a dollar. One red flag here (i) I should have stopped right there, like who would send 200,000 dollars to me right. I didn't. The contract had logo and it's my bad fortune that couldn't be stopped I guess. 3) I have clicked on the address that sent me these tokens and it looked like a legit contract. It had the logo and it looked like an Airdrop bot contract. And right at the top there is "alpacafin.com". I went straight to that website. Red flag here : The website has no content except for the "claim alpaca" button". Yeah I should have stopped right there but do you know why I didn't? I trusted my trust wallet. I mean I have been in this situation before and I had to "write" tokens from an Airdrop for them to appear in my wallet. And it was legit. 4) So , I proceeded connecting my trust wallet and approved the transaction. Red flag here : The approval fees for any token in bsc is ideally very low but this transaction had like 4x the ideal price. 5) Right after approving the token, I usually see number of transactions = 1 on my trust wallet. This time it was 2. 6) Poof 3...2...1... All of my DOGE coin gone.

I know giving out your pneumonic phrases was the dumb thing. I didn't knew you could perform 2 transactions on 1 smart contract. Yeah I totally blame myself for my loss. Just wanted to share this with new comers like me in this crypto world. God this sh*t is scary.

My takeaways 1) Don't use multi coin wallets. Just don't. 2) Don't believe in random airdops that magically appear in your wallet address. 3) Be very cautious when connecting your wallet to anything at all. Dyor about the domain.

I've had to learn this the hard way.
