1. They put some tokens in the wallet worth some money.
  2. When someone thinks they hit the lotto, they add ETH or whatever gas they need to transfer the tokens out.
  3. As soon as you add gas, it’s immediately sent to their private wallet.
  4. They code it in so no way around it.
Something like that.
I saw this last year but with another shitcoin. Watched the wallet for a couple of months, victims getting ETH stolen while the fees were very high, until the activity stopped.
Clever scam, and interesting too in that everyone that lost money thought they were ripping someone else off. I don't support it, but I didn't feel very bad for them either.
