Crypto users are facing a new wave of WhatsApp scams that can hack your phone with just one image or file.

📌 How the Scam Works

  1. Scammer sends you a photo, video, or PDF disguised as something harmless (e.g., “Binance rewards,” “VIP signals,” or “KYC form”).

  2. The file actually contains malware. Once you download or open it, your phone gets infected.

    Hackers can then:

    • Steal your wallet private keys & seed phrases.

    • Hijack your WhatsApp & banking apps.

    • Swap your crypto wallet addresses when you copy-paste.

    • Even remotely control your camera & microphone.

⚠️ Real Cases

  • The Pegasus spyware attack spread through WhatsApp images and calls.

  • Similar scams are now circulating with fake Binance or crypto trading images.

✅ How to Protect Yourself

  • Never download files or images from unknown numbers/groups.

  • Keep WhatsApp updated to patch vulnerabilities.

  • Always download crypto apps only from official stores (Play Store / App Store).

  • Remember: Binance will never contact you via WhatsApp.

Your crypto safety starts with awareness. Don’t let one click cost you everything.
