A crypto scam called Harvest Keeper just robbed more people of their money.
According to Certik Alert, which describes itself as Web3's leading smart contract auditor. It provides a comprehensive suite of tools to secure the industry at scale. Harvest Keeper turned out to be a fraudulent project.
In their tweet dated March 19, Certik Alert writes that they can confirm that Harvest Keeper is a scam. “At the time of writing, we can confirm ~$933k of users' assets have been stolen. Revoke permissions for EOA: 0x250ce5a8d8a8f0345fb8708e0575c8ede7710c14. Do not interact with the project's URL,” warns the tweet.

The company adds that “the Harvest_Keeper contract was drained by a privileged `getAmount` function which transferred ~$709k USDT to EOA 0x027c8. Contract bsc: 0x28120471E1e42e15a71Af5E39cA9f93099F34d2d/ The funds are currently held in EOA 0x92288.”
"At the same time, user assets have been stolen through ice-phishing transactions across BSC, Ethereum, and Polygon. Across the 3 chains, ~$219k have been stolen in ice phishing transactions so far. Stolen assets were transferred to EOA 0x15a8a,” the company wrote.
Harvest Keeper claimed to be an AI-powered project that “optimizes the trading process for maximum payout” and promised a 4.81% return on user deposits.
The company’s Twitter handle, site, and Medium page are unavailable at the time of writing.

Some of the victims have already come forward, asking the community how to recover their funds. The options provided by some users – Earn Back Experts and Harvest Keeper Support – appear to be questionable as the former only features three tweets while the latter has one follower only.
