9R62TzAeTyjrmHggXp8SiiXUW6LtSwRwzXEvtBDPpump scam

A fake crypto project scam involving cryptocurrency was reported on 12 September 2026. Two Solana pump.fun memecoins were promoted around a fake "Wavy vs Chimp" MMA event advertised for 8:00 PM US Central on September 11, 2026. Amateur MMA fighter Cole Johnson ("Wavy MMA") went viral in early September 2026 claiming he could beat a chimpanzee. This was turned into a promoted "pay-per-view" with a countdown, hosted on two Lovable-built websites: wavychimp.com and wavyvschimp.com. Both sites prominently displayed two Solana token addresses with "COPY ADDRESS" buttons and a "live market cap" bar pitting the two tokens against each other, framed as backing each side of the "fight": - $WAVY — 9R62TzAeTyjrmHggXp8SiiXUW6LtSwRwzXEvtBDPpump - $CHIMP — 371qoeCmtNBMZoi4dQzwWgm2rk2HfEwpmgEZPQ8bpump (On-chain names may differ from the tickers shown on the site.) The sites had clear scam hallmarks: the "watch"/"TUNE IN" page had no functioning video player, a static "1,482 watching" viewer count, and an empty chat. No venue, promoter, sanctioning body, or animal-welfare arrangement was ever announced, and the fighter publicly stated the original claim was made as a joke. On September 11, 2026, wavyvschimp.com was taken offline by Lovable's Trust & Safety team hours before the countdown ended; MMA press (Bloody Elbow, EssentiallySports) reported the site was promoting a cryptocurrency scheme and the event was effectively cancelled. wavychimp.com remained live. At approximately 8:00 PM Central — the advertised start time — the promoted livestream played a "rickroll" (Rick Astley, "Never Gonna Give You Up") instead of any real broadcast, confirming there was never a genuine event. The setup appears designed solely to drive buys into the two tokens during the hype window. I did not personally invest and am reporting this as an observer.
