The Imposters You MUST Avoid:
These aren't just generic fakes. They're trying to trick you by pretending to be legitimate services like:
* Raydium
* Hyperliquid
* Suiet Wallet
* BullX Crypto
* OpenOcean Exchange
* Meteora Exchange
* Harvest Finance Blog
* ...and more! (Yes, there are multiple fake versions of some!)
They look real, copy logos, and even use compromised developer accounts to seem trustworthy.
Their Sneaky Trap: The "Recovery" Scam
Here's how they drain your funds:
* You download a fake. (They're often top search results!)
* It asks you to "recover" your wallet.
* You type in your 12-word seed phrase. (This is the fatal mistake!)
* BAM! Your seed phrase goes straight to the scammers, and your funds are GONE.
RED FLAGS: Don't Get Caught!
* ๐ซ ANY app asking for your 12-word seed phrase to "log in" is a SCAM. Period. Your seed phrase is ONLY for initial setup or genuine recovery on a new, clean device.
* Sketchy Developer: Check the developer's profile โ weird name, odd history? Delete!
* Dodgy Privacy Links: Look at the privacy policy URL. If it's a strange or misspelled website (like hyperliqw.sbs or pancakefentfloyd.cz), uninstall immediately!
Fortify Your Crypto โ Act NOW!
* โ ONLY Download from Official Websites: Always go directly to the project's official site for app links.
* โ Activate Google Play Protect: It's an extra layer of defense on Android.
* โ 2FA & Biometrics: Use them everywhere!
* โ NEVER Share Your Seed Phrase: Write it down, keep it OFFLINE, and in a secure physical location. It's your ultimate key!
* โ Stay Alert: Be suspicious of any unsolicited links or messages.
Remember Crypto Rule #1: If anyone asks for your seed phrase, it's a scam. No exceptions!
Stay safe, stay smart.
