Recently, the Crypto Assets market has witnessed a worrying wave of scams. Data shows that in just the past seven days, phishing attacks initiated through major social platforms such as Telegram, WhatsApp, and X (formerly Twitter) have increased by 32%. This surge reflects that scammers are continuously improving their tactics.



Currently, the most common tricks used by scammers include fake token airdrop activities and promoting scam coins. They also cleverly use automated comment bots under popular posts to attract potential victims. The diversification and complexity of these tactics make it increasingly difficult for ordinary users to discern the truth.

In the face of such a severe situation, experts have提出了几点关键的自我保护建议:
1. Be highly vigilant of any links in private messages and never click them easily.
2. Obtain information only through official channels, including verified websites, applications, and social media accounts.
3. Enable two-factor authentication (2FA) on all relevant accounts, as this is a crucial security barrier.
4. Maintain a skeptical attitude towards projects that promise quick profits, as legitimate investments rarely have "guaranteed returns."

Even more shocking is that the losses caused by Crypto Assets scams have already exceeded $800 million, and we have just begun 2025. This figure not only reflects the current vulnerability of the crypto market but also highlights the urgency of strengthening user education and regulation.

As Crypto Assets continue to gain popularity worldwide, every participant needs to stay vigilant and learn to identify potential threats. Only through collective efforts can we create a safer and more trustworthy encryption ecosystem.
