Indicators observed

  • Giveaway scam (requiring actions & crypto address): Posts a "$2000 GIVEAWAY" (Post 1) requiring users to "drop sol adde + proof" after following, joining Telegram, liking and retweeting. This is a common tactic to collect cryptocurrency addresses and/or engagement for fraudulent purposes
  • Investment/trading scam promises (signals, 1000X alpha): Profile bio mentions "crypto guru" and "Dm for promotion". Post 3 explicitly states "Join my TG for call/signal 1000X alpha", promising unrealistic returns
  • Off-platform redirect to Telegram for signals/giveaways: The account consistently directs users to the Telegram link "https://t.me/haileywelchdegen" under the guise of giveaways, signals, and exclusive information (Post 1, 3, 5). This is a tactic used to move conversations to less moderated platforms for scamming
Weaker signals
  • Handle uses high-risk crypto/trading keywords commonly seen in scam accounts
  • Verified account used for scam activities: The account has an X verification badge, indicating a potentially compromised or fraudulently obtained verified account being used for scamming
  • Low organic engagement relative to follower count: Despite 24k followers, posts have very low likes/retweets (e.g., Post 3 has 0 likes/retweets, others are in single or low double digits), suggesting fake followers or engagement pods rather than genuine interaction

Investigation log

  1. 6/7/2026Likely scam · risk 95/100

    Giveaway scam (Post 1: "I’m giving away $10,000 in $BTC to 5 lucky winners today") requiring Telegram join, typical of phishing/scam funnels

  2. 6/7/2026Likely scam · risk 85/100

    Investment/trading scam promises: 'CRYPTO GURU', 'QUEEN OF MEMECOIN DEGEN', 'daily alpha call', 'alpha calls', 'told you to buy the dip', 'warned you', 'Bitcoin is going to $1 million per coin eventually one day. This dip is temporary. Buy it.'

  3. 6/7/2026High risk · risk 55/100

    Profile bio claims 'CRYPTO GURU' and 'QUEEN OF MEMECOIN DEGEN' which are common exaggerated titles used by scam accounts to create an illusion of expertise

  4. 6/7/2026Likely scam · risk 80/100

    Giveaway scam (Drop your $SOL address 👇 I will send you $500 in 24h❤)

  5. 6/21/2026Likely scam · risk 100/100

    Investment scam promises ('1000x call', 'life changing opportunity', '100x', 'Up to 10 million', 'Bitcoin will hit $250,000')

Pattern: Giveaway / coin-doubling scam

A post promises free tokens, a prize draw, or that any crypto you send will come back multiplied. Entry requires reposting and dropping your wallet address in the replies. The address harvest is the real product: it feeds later dusting, phishing and targeted approaches, and anyone who actually sends funds never sees them again.

How to recognise it
  • "Send X, get 2X back" — no legitimate exchange has ever run this
  • Asks you to post your wallet address publicly
  • A countdown or a "only 5 winners" scarcity hook
  • Replies are filled with fake winners posting thanks
Public references

Sources and method

  • GACS social scanner

    Our scanner reads the public profile and recent posts, scores the behavioural signals, and re-checks the account on a schedule so a listing reflects current behaviour, not a single moment.

  • Primary observation

    The page or profile this listing was created from.

  • 147 community reports

    Independent submissions from people who ran into this. Reports are matched on the identifier, not the name, so renaming does not reset the count.

First observed 6/6/2026, re-checked 5 times since. Each re-check re-reads the live profile or page rather than trusting the earlier verdict. If you believe this listing is wrong, you can appeal it and we will re-check the evidence.

Case study

@hailey_cryptoo (X): what the reports show and how the scam works

Compiled from GACS registry data and community reports. Reviewed by GACS Editorial Review and the GACS Research Team · Published 9/17/2026

How this scam works

Social-account fraud: the account copies a real person or brand, builds credibility with followers and replies, then moves targets into direct messages where the ask is made.

What the reports say

147 reports submitted to GACS are attached to this entry. The GACS social scanner reviewed this account and rated it a likely scam. What the scan found: Giveaway scam (requiring actions & crypto address): Posts a "$2000 GIVEAWAY" (Post 1) requiring users to "drop sol adde + proof" after following, joining Telegram, liking and retweeting. This is a common tactic to collect cryptocurrency addresses and/or engagement for fraudulent purposes.; Investment/trading scam promises (signals, 1… Reporter identities are never published.

Timeline and infrastructure

GACS first recorded this entry on June 6, 2026. The most recent report or check was on June 24, 2026.

Red flags in this case

  • A handle that is one character off the real one, or reuses a verified person's name and photo.
  • The conversation is moved to WhatsApp, Telegram or DM almost immediately.
  • Replies and followers that are mostly other new accounts posting the same praise.
  • The same operation has appeared under 2 different names, which is how it survives takedowns.

What to do if you were caught by this

  1. Contact your bank or card issuer straight away and ask them to stop, recall or charge back the payment.
  2. Keep every message, receipt, screenshot and address before you block anyone — this is the evidence any investigation needs.
  3. Report it to your national fraud authority. In the United States that is the FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov and the FBI's IC3 at ic3.gov.
  4. Ignore anyone who contacts you offering to recover the money for a fee. Recovery fraud is the standard follow-up to this pattern.
