Stay safe: any staked ape that get listed for sale, will lose the staked $APE!

Hi fam, i would like to point out the risk of losing staked $APE if it gets listed for sale on any marketplace.

since staking takes the tokenId as the key to finding the position, if the owner changes for a certain NFT, it would automatically be owned by the new Owner, so please be safe when you carry on your trades.

this is the tx for the attack:

attack contract was deployed much earlier, 36 days ago:

overall, it’s safe to use the contract, but just remember to not list that BAYC/MAYC/BAKC, before you withdraw $APE tokens staked from the contract.

I became a victim too, wasn’t aware of this mechanic and now all my 2k APE are gone. This guy who bought my MAYC does this scam regularly. Any chance of being compensated somehow?

Good reminder.

So everyone is aware, this has been the way it works - as designed and as spelled out in red bold all-caps on the Apestake.io site - since day 1.
