The Web3 security firm HashDit has issued a warning about a rise in scams on the BNB Chain, highlighting the creation of honeypot tokens by malicious groups. These scams involve the creation of fake tokens and liquidity pools, using large amounts of USDT to simulate high trading volumes. The scammers then promote these tokens in dubious 'pump groups' using flashy charts to attract unsuspecting users.
HashDit advises users to avoid joining random pump or investing groups and to always verify information through official sources such as Binance or CoinMarketCap. Additionally, users are encouraged to utilize the HashDit Token Checker available on their website to ensure the legitimacy of tokens.
The firm emphasizes the importance of staying informed and cautious to avoid falling victim to these scams.
