Warning@PeterSchiff‘s twitter got compromised. Scammers are using it to promote a fake $GOLD presale. However, note that a presale smart contract is likely not an EOA (Externally Owned Account) as been detected by Blockfence. Confirming this tx would lead to a wallet drain! pic.twitter.com/Nvzc3xuWFj
