A common scam in the world of Binance Smart Chain tokens is to launch a new token/contract that to the average person looks enticing, but when buyers purchase the tokens, they soon find that they are unable to sell them, and thus have lost their money.
I have heard it said that the developers of the token accomplish this by “blacklisting” all other wallets except their own from selling, but I am not sure how accurate (or how literal vs euphemistic) that explanation is.
Some people try to avoid this type of scam by making a test purchase/sale of a negligible amount to make sure the tokens is able to be sold.
My question is: are there particular functions/settings in the contract that could be scanned for and checked to identify whether or not a coin is this type of scam, instead of having to make a test purchase to find out?
Yes,
if owner set swapandliquify to false all the swaps could be locked. some people reported that scammers are using uniswapv2pair same way.
compiler version 0.5.17 has a lot of exploits/bugs too.
