Phishing Texts Are on the Rise — Don't Tap That Link
We've recently observed an increase in phishing attacks targeting crypto users. Attackers send fake "security alert" text messages to trick users into clicking links and draining their accounts.
Common signs of a phishing text: Disguised as an official notification — "Your account settings were changed" or "Suspicious login detected"Contains a shortened link asking you to "verify immediately"Creates urgency so you act before you think Remember: Binance will never ask you to tap a link in a text message to "verify" or "secure" your account. 🛡️ Three Things to Protect Your Account 1. Don't tap unfamiliar links If you receive a text with a link claiming to be a security alert — don't tap it.
