#CryptoScamSurge is a real threat! 🚨 In the first half of 2025 alone, over $2.17 billion has been stolen from crypto services, surpassing all of 2024. This surge is fueled by sophisticated tactics like "pig butchering" scams and the alarming rise of AI-driven fraud, making deception easier and more scalable. From fake ICOs to phishing links, scammers are relentless. Protect your assets: NEVER share private keys, be wary of unrealistic returns, and verify every platform. Do your research, use two-factor authentication, and report suspicious activity. Stay vigilant and spread awareness to combat this growing menace! #StaySafe #CryptoSecurity
