what is permit signature?
a free, off-chain signature that works like an approval once someone submits it (on tokens and apps that support it).
it costs the signer nothing, which is the point for scammers: a popup that says "sign" can do the same job as one that says "approve". it does not show up in approval lists until it is used.
