Dear MetaMask Support Team, We have been conducting research on a company that we suspect may be operating a fraudulent arbitrage trading AI Bot. Recently, we noticed a warning message on their website, (app-boomerang . trade) purportedly from MetaMask. Our team, “The Avengers,” suspects that this warning may be self-generated by the company using a 303 URL redirect. Could you please verify whether this warning is indeed legitimate and originates from MetaMask? Furthermore, we are concerned about the implications of this warning. Should we be alarmed? Over the past five months, we have observed transactions totaling $140 million associated with this company’s sale of licenses. The fact that they are now reporting issues on their launch day, seemingly stemming from their own coding, is raising red flags for us. We appreciate any assistance or clarification you can provide on this matter. Thank you for your attention to this urgent issue. Danny de Hek - The Crypto Ponzi Scheme Avenger ---

Thank you so much for this information, The main scammer ShaveZ has claimed they are going to setup a new DOMAIN for the APP-BOOMERANG . Trade it used to be BOOMERANG . Trade so how will you update the warning when they release the new domain for the site? ---

If a new domain is made then it can be blocked again on the blacklist. Are you in contact with the scammer? ---

You can’t make this shit up, they are telling people that MetaMask warning doesn’t mean shit. As per latest updates from Shavez, here is the test link to test AI Bot on Boomerang DAPP : testing. app-boomerang .trade This is just meant for optimizing AI and not trading. The test aims to broaden the spectrum of profitable pairs available to all the existing and new licence holders. Do not execute any trades, just create logs for the development team. _INSTRUCTIONS:_ - As you use the link, MMW will issue phishing website warning, just select “continue to the site” - As tester we only need to select available trade size one at a time, select coin as WMATIC (for the first few hours) and POLYGON as network and let the AI suggest all pairs for us. - Repeat this process as many times as possible for each different coin in the list later on as instructed and for each different trade sizes through out the day. - The swap is not yet connected, so trades cannot be executed. DO NOT ATTEMPT. - Next updates will be suggested soon, stay tuned. ---
