⚠️ Security Alert: Protecting Your Crypto Assets

Scammers are actively exploiting multiple channels to target users. We're currently tracking fraudulent Telegram advertisements, fake compensation claim forms, phishing accounts impersonating official support, and unsolicited direct messages—all designed to compromise your wallet security.

Here's what you need to know:

Verify every link before clicking. Scammers often create near-identical URLs that are difficult to spot at first glance.

Your recovery phrase is sacred. Never—under any circumstances—share it with anyone, including support staff. Legitimate service providers will never ask for this information.

Stick to official channels only. Use verified official websites and apps directly from app stores. Avoid third-party links, even if they appear to come from trusted sources.

Stay vigilant, double-check everything, and when in doubt, reach out through verified official communication channels. Your security is your responsibility.

Once again, someone has fallen for a phishing scam. Brothers, you really should pay more attention to the recovery phrase. Wait, are those fake compensation forms serious? Does anyone still believe them? Use only official channels; all other links are traps, no negotiations. Be cautious of ads on Telegram; 99% are trying to take your wallet. How many people have to pay tuition fees in this round? Security really depends on yourself. The official app is the real deal; avoid all others.

Here comes the scam show again. I told you recently Telegram has been so annoying. Recovery phrase really shouldn't be shared casually, even with customer service, don't trust it.

It's the same story again, every time they say to verify the link and not share private keys... but people still fall for it. There's really nothing we can do.

Another wave of phishing scammers, truly unbelievable --- Recovery words are like passwords, why are people still talking about them openly --- I'm just wondering, when will the official proactively ask for your private key --- Be careful with links, even one character difference can get you rug pulled --- Honestly, it still depends on yourself; you can't rely entirely on official alerts --- There are so many fake Telegram ads, you can spot them at a glance --- Recovery phrase is more important than life itself, there's no room for debate --- Download the official version from the app store, don't be tempted by cheap third-party ones --- Think twice before clicking on a link, it can really save your life --- Always verify each time, it's troublesome but necessary

Here we go again, the phishing link tricks have been around for at least 3.7 years. --- Once the recovery phrase is leaked, the liquidation risk skyrockets, and leveraged positions are instantly wiped out. --- Honestly, 90% of people still can't tell the difference when it comes to official channels. --- Every time I see someone get phished, the collateralization ratio drops a bit more. With such market volatility, who still dares to click on unfamiliar links? --- I have to emphasize verifying URLs 1847 times. --- Remember last year’s wave of fake compensation forms, one after another, directly draining the wallet. --- Recovery phrase = your entire assets, there’s no other way to understand it. --- Third-party links have virtually no risk control mechanism; you need to be more cautious. --- Here I am again to remind you, but next time, someone will still fall for it. --- Verifying official channels is truly essential; otherwise, liquidation is only a matter of time.

Here we go again with the scams. These scammers really never stop. Never casually share your recovery phrase. My friend did, and he lost everything, going back to square one overnight. Links may look the same but are actually different by one letter. I don't even dare to click on them anymore. Official channels are really the most important. Download directly from the App Store, don't trust links recommended by friends. Nowadays, wallet security depends on yourself. If support asks for your phrase, it's definitely a scam.

My goodness, another wave of phishing messages? Telegram has been compromised --- Recovery phrase is more dangerous than a private key. Anyone who told me that would be blocked --- Honestly, even the official ones are hard to distinguish, especially the links which are indeed easy to fall for --- Every time they say to be careful, but some people still get fooled, which is truly outrageous --- Why are these scam groups so rampant? Does the platform have any control? --- Enable two-factor authentication, or just wait to go bankrupt --- Even links that look very official could be fake, it's really crazy --- This reminder came just in time. My friend almost fell for it a couple of days ago --- Don't ask the support team for your seed phrase; reputable ones will never ask for it --- Be very cautious if you have some assets in your wallet. It's not worth taking this risk

ngl these days even Telegram isn't safe anymore. I've already tattooed my private key on my body. --- Another bunch of phishing links. My friend almost got scammed last time and started doubting life. --- That's right, but I still occasionally slip up and click the wrong link... Anyway, I don't have much crypto. --- Recovery phrase is really more important than life itself. --- Official support doesn't ask for the key, but those fake customer service reps insist on it. People who can't tell the difference truly deserve it. --- I just want to know how many people actually share their seed phrases. --- Feels like there are more scams than the projects themselves.
