SuperStep Hack
What happened
The SuperStep project was rugpulled by the team that worked on it. The team created a staking platform, offering a high annual income from staking. The project entailed a backdoor in the contract, allowing the creator address to withdraw all of the staked $BNB within the protocol.
SuperStep is a fitness DAPP empowered by Jog-to-Earn mechanism.
The scammers created contracts to attract investors to their project. In order to make the token valuable, they created a pair on PancakeSwap in this transaction:

Then they made an airdrop, which attracted even more investment in the project:

When funds were deposited into the staking contract, scammers began to withdraw funds:
