RETAWATCH Hack

TOTAL LOST $29K
Low Rugpull

What happened

The $RTW token has been rugpulled by the contract creator. The contract creator sent 15M $RTW to the scammer address (B) who created a liquidity pool between $BNB and $BUSD. When the price of the token appreciated, the scammer took profits.

The contract creator deployed the contract to the network and verified its source code. Then he sent 15M $RTW tokens to scammer address (B), which created a liquidity pool between tokens such as $BNB and $BUSD. In total, the value of the pool was approximately $16.8K.

Liquidity creations with $BNB: https://bscscan.com/tx/0xab1311a6…4c516b

After the pool was created, the deployer began distributing tokens between accounts artificially created by the team that took up this project to create a fake distribution of tokens between accounts, here is an example addresses:

  1. Address
  2. Address
  3. Address

Scammer address (B) removed the liquidity several times, taking profit, of $3.7K.
