About this scam

The Squid Game Token (SQUID) was a cryptocurrency launched in October 2021 that exploited the popularity of the Netflix series Squid Game. The token surged in value by over 83,000% in its first days before the developers executed a rug pull, draining approximately $3.38 million from the liquidity pool. The smart contract contained a hidden "anti-whale" mechanism that prevented holders from selling, effectively trapping victims' funds while developers sold their tokens at the peak.
