Going through the contents here, I can't believe I have to say this simple fact If someone promises guaranteed profits in crypto, it’s a scam. No exceptions. Fake giveaways. DM “support”. Insider signals. Too-good-to-be-true APYs. Scammers don’t hack code , they hack greed and urgency. Slow down. Verify twice. If you don’t understand how the money is made, you are the product. Stay paranoid. Stay solvent. 🔐 #Scam? #scamriskwarning

7 Tips to Stay Safe 🔫Small habits compound into strong protection.  1) Lock down your account: Turn on two-factor authentication and keep the second factor on a separate device. Use a strong, unique password or passkey, keep your OS, browser, and apps updated, secure the email tied to your Binance account, and avoid public Wi-Fi for sign-ins. Learn how in Binance’s[ 2FA guide](https://www.binance.com/en/academy/articles/how-to-use-binance-s-2fa-verification-strategy). 2) Verify before you connect or sign: When exploring Web3, slow down at the signature screen. Double-check the URL through official channels, read what you are approving, and test unfamiliar DApps with small amounts. Ignore surprise tokens or “free airdrops” you did not request, and periodically revoke old approvals. Use[ Binance Verify](https://www.binance.com/en/official-verification) and this[ phishing primer](https://www.binance.com/en/blog/security/4461490969893941512). 3) Report fast with complete details: If you suspect theft, contact local law enforcement and open a case with[ Binance Support](https://www.binance.com/en/chat) immediately. Include transaction hashes, wallet addresses, asset, chain, timestamps, and screenshots. Faster, complete reports improve the odds of a precautionary hold while facts are verified. 4) Guard your keys: Never share your seed phrase or private keys. Keep them offline. For long-term holdings, prefer a hardware wallet. 5) Reduce device exposure: Use a separate device for trading rather than everyday browsing, gaming, or downloads. Do not run unknown software. Treat unsolicited DMs and links with caution and verify claims through official channels. 6) Be skeptical of “recovery services:” Many outfits that promise to get funds back for an upfront fee are scams. Do your own research, avoid granting remote access, and do not pay in crypto or gift cards. See Binance’s guidance on[ fraudulent recovery services](https://www.binance.com/en/blog/community/fraudulent-recovery-services-how-not-to-fall-for-a-scam-twice-3757133141389741964). 7) Bonus for builders: Audit smart contracts before launch, protect secrets in secure vaults, use hardware signers and multisig for sensitive actions, and set up monitoring with clear runbooks for admin changes, unusual mints, and bridge activity. #scamriskwarning

Taking off the Mask😶‍🌫️ Today, I’m standing in the middle of a mess of debt and regret. It’s hard to even put into words the level of stress this carries. But I’m done hiding. I’m stepping away from the screens and the "recovery" dreams. ​I’m starting from zero. It’s going to be a long, hard climb to pay back my debts and find my peace again, but I’m choosing to be honest about my mistakes so they don’t have power over me anymore. ​If you’re struggling with similar losses, you aren't alone. Let's choose the hard work of rebuilding over the gamble of "one last try." #scamriskwarning

Crypto User Loses $12.25 Million to Address Poisoning ScamA crypto investor recently fell victim to an "address poisoning" scam, losing 4,556 ETH worth $12.25 million. The scam occurred when the user copied a fake address from their transaction history, which was designed to mimic a legitimate wallet address. This incident follows a similar case in December where another user lost $50 million in USDT due to the same type of scam. Address poisoning scams involve attackers generating vanity addresses that match the first and last characters of a target's trusted contacts. These fake addresses are then embedded in the victim's transaction history, making it difficult to distinguish between legitimate and fraudulent addresses. How to Protect Yourself: - Never copy-paste addresses from transaction history - Manually verify each character of the recipient's address - Use wallet aliases to label trusted contacts - Bookmark frequent recipients in your wallet's whitelist These scams are becoming increasingly common, with over 1 million attempts detected daily on Ethereum. Blockchain transactions are irreversible, making it crucial to exercise caution when sending cryptocurrency. #scamriskwarning #AwarenessOnScam $BTC {spot}(BTCUSDT) $ETH {spot}(ETHUSDT)

Crypto Scams: How to Spot the "Fakes" in 2026 The crypto world is full of amazing opportunities, but honestly it's also a place where scammers are getting smarter. In 2026, they aren't just sending bad emails anymore—they’re using AI and high-tech tricks to try and get your coins. For Beginners: The "Too Good to Be True" Rule In simple English, if someone promises you "guaranteed" profits or says they can "double your money" in a week, it is a scam. 🚫 Think of it like this: If a stranger on the street told you that if you gave them $100, they’d come back in ten minutes with $200, would you believe them? Probably not! The same rule applies to crypto. Red Flag #1: Unsolicited DMs on Telegram, WhatsApp, or X (Twitter). Red Flag #2: Pressure to "act fast" or miss out. Red Flag #3: Asking for your Seed Phrase or private keys. (Binance will never ask for these!) For Enthusiasts: The "Deepfake" & "Digital Arrest" Era 🤖 Scams have evolved. In early 2026, we’ve seen a massive rise in Deepfake Scams. The Trick: Scammers use AI to create a video of a famous crypto CEO or celebrity "endorsing" a fake giveaway. It looks and sounds exactly like them, but it’s a total lie. The "Digital Arrest": A scary new trend where scammers pretend to be police or government officials on a video call. They claim your crypto wallet is linked to a crime and demand a "security deposit" to avoid arrest. Remember: Real police will never ask for crypto to settle a case! Honesty Corner: Why Smart People Get Tricked Scammers don't just attack your computer; they attack your emotions. They use "FOMO" (Fear Of Missing Out) to make you rush, or they use fear to make you panic. Even the most experienced traders can get caught if they are tired or distracted. The best defense is to slow down. Before you click a link or send a payment, take five minutes to breathe and double-check everything. #Write2Earn #scamriskwarning

The Digital Pied Pipers: How YouTube Influencers Pump and Dump Your SavingsIn the glitzy world of social media finance, a new breed of "guru" has emerged. They flash luxury cars, trade in high-end watches, and promise that the next "100x" coin is just one "buy" button away. But as the 2024 and 2025 crypto markets have shown, many of these viral recommendations are less about financial freedom and more about a calculated cycle of fake promotion and the "dump." The Anatomy of the Influencer "Pump" The scam isn't just a random accident; it’s a choreographed performance designed to exploit the Fear Of Missing Out (FOMO). The Hidden Accumulation: Long before the video goes live, the influencer or their "sponsors" accumulate massive amounts of a low-cap, worthless token at near-zero prices.The Paid "Review": The YouTuber releases a video titled something like "THE NEXT BITCOIN? (Don't Miss Out!)". What they often fail to disclose—violating SEC and FTC regulations—is that they were paid tens of thousands of dollars to read a script.The Artificial Spike: Followers, trusting the creator’s "expertise," rush to buy. This massive inflow of retail money causes the price to skyrocket—the Pump. The "Dump": When the Hype Hits the Ceiling While the YouTuber is telling their audience to "diamond hand" (hold) the coin for long-term gains, the reality behind the scenes is the exact opposite.The Exit Strategy: As soon as the price hits a predetermined peak, the influencer and the project founders sell their massive holdings. The Liquidity Trap: Because these coins often have "low liquidity," the massive sell-off causes the price to crater.The Result: Within hours or days, the coin's value drops by 90% or more. The influencer walks away with a "marketing fee" and trading profits; the followers are left holding "worthless bags." Pro Tip: Use blockchain explorers like Etherscan or Solscan to see if a few wallets hold more than 10-20% of the coin. If they do, you aren't an investor—you're the exit liquidity. The Bottom Line In the crypto world, if an influencer is shouting about a coin for free, you are the product. Their "research" is often just a paid advertisement for a scheme designed to fail. Always remember: if it’s too good to be true, it’s probably a dump.

Les Techniques de Piratage dans l’Univers des Cryptomonnaies : Comprendre et se ProtégerL'univers des cryptomonnaies, bien que regorgeant d'opportunités, n'est pas sans ses dangers. Les hackers et usurpateurs exploitent l'anonymat, la décentralisation, et l'aspect relativement nouveau de ce secteur pour déployer des méthodes sophistiquées de vol. Cet article explore les principales techniques utilisées par ces acteurs malveillants et vous offre des conseils pratiques pour vous en prémunir. Les Faux Giveaways Les faux giveaways sont parmi les arnaques les plus répandues dans le monde des cryptomonnaies. Le concept est simple : un hacker se fait passer pour une célébrité ou une entreprise de renom et propose un concours ou un giveaway promettant de doubler ou tripler vos fonds en crypto. Pour participer, il suffit d'envoyer une somme modeste à une adresse donnée, avec la promesse de recevoir bien plus en retour. Naturellement, l'argent envoyé disparaît, et aucun retour ne vous parvient. Un faux giveaway peut exploiter des comptes Twitter ou YouTube compromis, publiant des liens vers des sites de phishing parfaitement imitables. Ces sites ne se contentent pas de récolter les fonds envoyés, mais peuvent également dérober vos informations personnelles ou vos clés privées. Les Fake NFTs et Malwares Cachés Les NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens), bien qu’extrêmement populaires, sont aussi utilisés pour distribuer des malwares. Certains hackers créent des NFTs qui, une fois achetés ou même simplement visualisés, déclenchent un code malveillant. Ce code peut vider votre portefeuille ou compromettre vos clés privées. Un fichier NFT peut contenir un script qui, lorsqu’il est ouvert sur une plateforme supportant les smart contracts, exécute un code malveillant. Par exemple, ce script pourrait ajouter des permissions invisibles à un smart contract, offrant ainsi au hacker un accès à votre portefeuille. Un clic innocent pourrait vous coûter cher. Les Fausse Promesse de Gains Les messages d’arnaque vous annonçant que vous avez « gagné » une grosse somme en USDT ou une autre cryptomonnaie sont fréquents. Ces messages vous redirigent souvent vers un site où l’on vous demande de connecter votre portefeuille pour « réclamer » vos gains. Mais ces sites sont conçus pour voler vos informations ou drainer vos fonds. Ces arnaques utilisent souvent des contrats intelligents qui, une fois autorisés à interagir avec votre portefeuille, peuvent transférer tous vos actifs vers le portefeuille du hacker. Un piège redoutable et facile à éviter avec un peu de vigilance. Les Tokens Imitateurs Créer un token ressemblant à un autre populaire mais sans valeur réelle est une autre méthode courante. Les hackers créent ces tokens pour les échanger contre des cryptos légitimes. Ces tokens frauduleux apparaissent parfois dans votre portefeuille sans que vous les ayez achetés, vous incitant à les échanger contre des cryptos valides. Ces tokens imitent souvent l’adresse d’un token populaire, changeant parfois un seul caractère. Si vous tentez de les vendre ou de les échanger, cela peut déclencher des scripts malveillants qui siphonnent vos fonds. La vigilance est de mise. L'Usurpation d'Identité sur Telegram Les hackers utilisent également des plateformes comme Telegram pour se faire passer pour des administrateurs, membres d’équipes projet ou investisseurs bienveillants .

Les hackers envoient des emails, messages ou DMs avec des liens vers des sites imitant ceux d’échanges ou de portefeuilles bien connus. Une fois que vous y entrez vos informations, elles sont immédiatement capturées par le hacker. Certains sites de phishing sont si bien conçus qu’ils copient presque parfaitement les interfaces de plateformes populaires comme MetaMask ou Binance.

$BNB 🔥🔥🔥 Fake Wallet App Downloaded 10,000 Times on Google Play, Steals $70K in Crypto: 🥺🥺🥺🥺 The malicious app, named WalletConnect, mimicked the reputable WalletConnect protocol. A fraudulent cryptocurrency wallet app on Google Play has reportedly stolen $70,000 from users in a sophisticated scam that has been described as a world-first for targeting mobile users exclusively. The malicious app, named WalletConnect, mimicked the reputable WalletConnect protocol but was, in fact, a sophisticated scheme to drain crypto wallets. The deceptive app managed to deceive over 10,000 users into downloading it, according to Check Point Research (CPR), the cybersecurity firm that uncovered the scam. Scammers Market Fraudulent App as Solution to Web3 Issues The scammers behind the app were well aware of the typical challenges faced by web3 users.
