FIRST, A MARKET RECAP:
The market fell this week, and the reason
came from outside the crypto universe.
The U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI),
which measures inflation in the U.S., came in higher than expected: 0.4% in October versus the forecast 0.3%.
Higher inflation means higher interest rates for
longer, and high rates pull money out of risk assets.
The market is already pricing in a 90% probability of a
rate hike at the Fed meeting on December 8 and 9.
Bitcoin fell to $72,000–$73,000, its lowest level since August, and stabilized near $74,000. Ethereum is trading around $2,050, and major altcoins followed the decline. Nearly $700 million in leveraged positions were liquidated, and Bitcoin ETFs have seen $1.5 billion in outflows since the start of the month.
SECURITY SPECIAL
3 SIGNS THAT APPEAR IN (ALMOST)
EVERY FINANCIAL SCAM
01. Urgency is the number-one red flag
No legitimate opportunity requires you to decide before you understand the situation. Always remember: haste makes waste.
02. Never click a link you receive
A link sent by email, DM, WhatsApp, or in a comment is the most common scam vector. The rule is clear: you go to the service. The service doesn’t come to you.
03. If they ask you to pay to release your money, it’s a scam
A legitimate platform doesn’t charge you to return what’s yours. If you can only withdraw after making another deposit, the previous amount is probably already gone.
THE 6 MOST COMMON SCAMS
01. Unauthorized account access
Someone accesses your account without you noticing
and quietly watches, sometimes for weeks.
🚨 Sign: a login, device, or session you don’t recognize.
✅ Action: enable two-step verification, check the connected
devices, and log out when you’re done using the account.
———
02. Wallet-draining permissions
You authorize a harmless-looking connection and forget it’s still active.
🚨 Sign: a site asking for approval “just to verify your wallet.”
✅ Action: review and revoke permissions you no longer use.
———
03. Fake support
Someone pretends to be support, a friend, or
an official account to gain your trust.
🚨 Sign: support contacts you first.
✅ Action: official support won’t start conversations.
Never share your verification code or password.
———
04. Returns that are “too good to be true”
A promise to turn a little into a lot,
with “zero risk” and “today only.”
🚨 Sign: high returns without risk—the dream that doesn’t exist.
✅ Action: compare it with the opportunity cost. If it pays much
more than the market, there’s a risk you’re not seeing.
———
05. The scam that starts with affection
Weeks of conversation and genuine interest... until
an “unmissable investment” comes up.
🚨 Sign: someone you’ve never met in person talking about money.
✅ Action: keep affection separate from your wallet. Someone who loves you
doesn’t manage your assets.
———
06. Cloned website or app
A page that looks almost identical to the real one, with a
slightly altered letter that goes unnoticed.
🚨 Sign: an address you didn’t type,
strange urgency, or a request for a code.
✅ Action: type the address yourself
and enable the Anti-Phishing Code.
3 SCAMS ON THE RISE IN LATAM
01. Fake balance
🚨 Sign: the money appears on screen, but you can’t withdraw it. The token
shown is a fake, and every withdrawal attempt triggers a
new deposit request.
✅ Action: always test a withdrawal with a small amount
before making a large deposit.
———
02. Fake mentor
🚨 Sign: someone insists on “guiding” you through the process,
especially after sending you a signup link.
✅ Action: turn down the help and the link. Open your account
yourself through the official app or website.
———
03. Signal and betting groups
🚨 Sign: they promise easy money and turn people into compulsive gamblers,
always thinking the next bet will win it all back.
✅ Action: if you’re trading to recover what you lost
(rather than to invest), stop.
