I just made a trade with a member here and I see something for the first time in my Phantom wallet.
Any idea what this is?

Phishing as can be (sadly) expected https://www.reddit.com/r/solana/comments/18ze75a/watch_for_scam_2024_jupiter_nft_in_phantom_wallet/

Thanks I have not clicked on it, fortunately. Will it disappear later or stay forever?

It will not disappear on its own. You can burn it or just send to “burn” address like thrash.sol, but it will incur you transaction fee and burning suspicious NFTs doesn’t necessarily give SOL in return. You can hide it indefinitely as far as I know and there’s no issue with it, unless you follow any links or QR codes attached.

so if I click on the NFT image nothing will happen or I will lose all my NFTs? how do I burn the NFT? I’m ok with the transaction fee, don’t want it in my wallet.

If you just click to expand NFT view - nothing, but don’t follow any links within the NFT.

is it possible for the scamsters to read through the latest transactions on solscan and then send these scam NFTs to the wallets involved in transactions?
I got them with and without transactions
that sucks, I guess every wallet will be infected sooner or later. As long as we know when a new NFT shows up it is better to burn it to be safe but these promos are little obvious but sad that some people get scammed little easily with them!
Education is key. To this and anything else.

I got another one yesterday and I tried to burn it multiple times but it fails to burn, even the option of using remove.sol is not working. I raised a ticket with the phantom team, their response is either to burn it or use remove.sol option.
Am I stuck with this?
You can also mark it as Report as Spam and Hide, before trying to burn or send to “burn” address like remove.sol
I guess it’s an indicator for Phantom to block such NFTs from circulation at least it’s in their blog described like that Security at Phantom

Phantom did on its own and kept it under hidden collections after I tried to burn the NFT few times.
Sometimes some NFTs are put under hidden collection, don’t know why Phantom does it, you can unhide them if they are legit NFTs.
