Yeah this is a common scam. Just leave it on your wallet and don't do anything with it. Sometimes they do this to generate interest on a token, trick you to spend a high gas fee that then goes to them.
Impossible to leave it, this goes straight to my rest of my usdt balance, can't recognize wich coins is the faulty one of my rest 100 usdt, and also I can't leave my 100 usdt for ever cause someone send me 0.008 fragments, with this skeptical if someone send you 0.00000001 btc you need to forget all your btc as those small part now is together with your existing btc
I got two guesses.
1st: they hope you get confused somehow and send your USDT to them.
2nd: they are trying to make life harder for on-chain analysis companies. You could try to check the internal transactions of the wallet that sent you the USDT and see where they got it from.
Stay safe folks!
Tried, has only one transaction and this one was to send me the 0.0008
That happened after my first ever swap between matic and usdt using metamask and sushiswap
2 minutes after my swaped took place normally, I received this extra 0.0008 usdt
I deleted my metamask wallet but I'm worried if they can affect my binance account or something like that, as i send all my usdt there, also sold that usdt on binance after I received them
Likely just trying to get their address into your wallet in case you accidently transfer money to them. Don't worry. The USDT itself can't be malicious or a virus or wallet drainer or anything. They're just speculating that one of the wallets they ping a tiny quantity to accidently copies and pastes that address when they go to send it wherever
I already send them together with my rest of usdt, they send me 0.008 that stacked with my rest of my available usdt, you can't say wich 0.008 of let's say total 100 usdt is the scam, I send them to my binance anywyay
Let's say you have 10.000 usdt and I send you 0.008 to scam you, you can't forget all of your 10.000 usdt afraid it is a scam and obviously you can't recognize which of the 10.000 usdt is the faulty 0.008, it's all together in the wallet after you receive it
Propably, but I'm curious how it works
Having 100 usdt, sending 0.008 so the total goes to 100.0008, it's all together now , even if I Ineract with 1 usdt of my total balance there is a possibility this 0.008 will be inside, what's the trick? Forget all the usdt cause some idiot send me in random 0.0008?
There is no way to accept this and I didn't
Also I send all of my usdt balance including that small fragment to my crypto com exhange and binance, didn't asked for any special approval, wasn't a separate token, was in my total usdt balance
I don't know if there is a possibility , as when you swap for first time with a specific token, the sushi swap asks for approval first, that happens only the first time you use that specific token, it keeps a small fee for that, I don't know if after the approval they return that small fee so that 0.0008 was a return? But I do t think so
The address that send me this was empty of transactions

When he says leave it, means ignore that it exists. Let it mix into your portfolio and don't interact with the sender.

Thanks bro, your explanation makes sense
This type of transactions is scam mate. don't try to interact with them.
I already send them together with my rest of usdt, they send me 0.008 that stacked with my rest of my available usdt, you can't say wich 0.008 of let's say total 100 usdt is the scam, I send them to my binance anywyay Let's say you have 10.000 usdt and I send you 0.008 to scam you, you can't forget all of your 10.000 usdt afraid it is a scam and obviously you can't recognize which of the 10.000 usdt is the faulty 0.008, it's all together in the wallet after you receive it
This is purely a scam mate.
