#CryptoScamSurge

Fraudulent activities in cryptocurrency can take the following forms:

Fake cryptocurrency websites and wallets. Scammers create a fake website that mimics a well-known cryptocurrency exchange or a fake wallet. It can be difficult to distinguish this site from the real one because the domain name and website design closely resemble the original. Users visit the fake website and enter their sensitive information, exposing it to the scammers.

Cryptocurrency phishing. Scammers create phishing links that lead to fake websites, cryptocurrency exchanges, or investment platforms. These links are then sent via email to victims or posted on other websites. Users click on the links, losing their data or money.

Fake investments in a "new" cryptocurrency. Scammers create a fake investment proposal in a new project, for example, a new cryptocurrency. Interested users send money to the specified cryptocurrency wallet, but in reality, no cryptocurrency has been created, and the invested funds are never returned.

Fake cryptocurrency investment opportunities. Scammers advertise profitable investment opportunities in cryptocurrencies on social networks.
