Shiba Inu enthusiasts, the ShibArmy, have received a safety warning from Susbarium, a well-known scam reporter in the Shiba Inu community. According to Susbarium’s recent disclosure on Sunday, the Twitter account associated with the Shib Metaverse project is now under the control of former team members who were removed from the SHIB ecosystem leadership. The account has been renamed and is currently identified as “Waggles Crypto Goods.”
As a result of this situation, Susbarium has raised concerns that the content and links shared by the handle may not be coming from the official leaders of the Shiba Inu ecosystem. To ensure safety and avoid potential scams, community members have been advised to verify information independently and exercise utmost caution when interacting with any links shared by the Waggles Crypto Goods account. Being vigilant is crucial in protecting the community from fraudulent activities and misinformation.

Dispute over Waggles Crypto Goods Account Ownership Raises Concerns in Shiba Inu Community
In response to the recent disclosure about the Waggles Crypto Goods account, a former Shiba Inu ecosystem official, UB, defended the project, stating that it is not a scam. UB clarified that the project was developed by Makeshift, an actual toy company, and asserted that the products designed for SHIB and Shiboshis would be sold on a secure website. UB further explained that he had created the brand back in December when he was still part of the Shib ecosystem, serving in roles within the Shib Metaverse creative team and the Shiba Inu defense team.
However, the renaming of the account without a consensus has drawn criticism from Susbarium, a famous Shiba Inu community scam reporter. Susbarium expressed concern over handling the company account, emphasizing that the former team should have handed it over after leaving or being dismissed from the SHIB team. The situation has sparked debate about account ownership and transparency within the Shiba Inu community.
