🔥 #CryptoScamSurge : beware of the increase in frauds! 🚨
This Thursday, July 24, several reports are warning of an unprecedented increase in crypto scams in the first half of 2025:
Over 2.17 billion $ stolen from crypto services (exchanges, platforms) in just six months, already surpassing the total losses of 2024.
🔸The category of compromised personal wallets now represents nearly 23% of all stolen funds, with a resurgence of physical attacks ("wrench attacks") targeting individual users.
🔹Ripple has also issued an urgent warning: dissemination of deepfakes, impersonated YouTube accounts, and fake XRP giveaways exploiting the rise of the token.
🎯 What you can do to protect yourself:
1. Never click on an unknown link or one promising guaranteed profits.
2. Always enable two-factor authentication (2FA) on your accounts.
3. Prioritize official platforms for downloads and exchanges.
4. Immediately report any suspicious content to the relevant authorities or platforms.
📉 What this means: the market boom also attracts fraudsters. Be prepared to stay vigilant from now on, especially if you are exploring altcoins or new tokens.
