DMC Token Rug Pull

Reported loss $497K

What happened

At the inception of the project 520m DMC tokens were minted. The scammer received 100m DMC by the contract deployer. The scammer waited 25 days for the project to accrual value before he started dumping the DMC tokens and extracting nearly 500k $BUSD in ill-gotten gains in the process.

The 520m DMC tokens were minted to the deployer's address, which were sent to an intermediary address. Part of the tokens were sent to scammer addresses for creating a pair on PancakeSwap. When the price reached a certain value, the address (B) that had a huge amount of tokens sent 390m DMC to the address (C) that started dumping the price.

As the time of this writing information on this case is scarce. More sources will be added if the case should develop.
