Why random tokens sometimes show up in your wallet

From time to time, you might notice tokens appearing in your balance on DEXs even though you never bought them. This usually happens because:

🛍 Airdrop shilling: Some projects send free tokens to thousands of wallets hoping you’ll notice them and trade.

👎 Scam tactics: Certain tokens are designed to trap users. If you try to swap or sell them, you might get hit with high fees, approvals, or wallet-draining contracts.

🆕 Legit promos: Sometimes, real projects give small airdrops to attract attention.

What you should do:
– Don’t trade or approve unknown tokens unless you fully trust the source.
– Verify the project on trusted explorers, communities, or official announcements.
– Be cautious, many scammers use this trick to lure users into malicious contracts.
