Meanwhile few bad actors in the crypto sector showed their bad activity to scam people via new FUD tokens on the Ethereum network. Crypto analytic & security platform Peckshield warned people to remain away from fake FUD tokens.

#PeckShieldAlert PeckShield has detected a counterfeit token $FUD (FTX Users' Debt). Scammers distributed $FUD to Huobi exchange, pretending to be the Huobi exchange to add liquidity, and then sending millions of $FUD to @justinsuntron. Be alert!https://t.co/AWw1TyU1h6 pic.twitter.com/lIpdJT8jKf

A Singaporean finance lawyer shared his opinion on this token and noted that the token use case is a clear breach of the securities Act.

This is 1000000% in breach of securities regulations.

Imagine people being worried about their game tokens being securities and Justin straight up lists a tranche of securitised garbage debt that may not even exist and shills it to retail investors.

Few people noted that Justin Sun or any team behind this token will not face any legal action because the majority of the Securities regulatory body in the world are not in the mood to talk about crypto assets.

Tron founder Justin is a Chinese origin person but now he is living in Grenada, where he is now a citizen and a diplomat. so here it is clear that he will not face any regulatory heat because of such activities.
