🚨 Crypto Scammers Are Invading TikTok!
"ClickTok" Campaign Targets Shoppers With Fake Ads, Trojan Apps, and Phishing Tricks 💻🎣
🎭 Fake Influencers, Real Danger
Scammers are using AI-generated TikToks and fake Meta ads to lure victims into phony storefronts that mimic real URLs.
🧨 10,000+ Fake Sites Uncovered
Even though TikTok Shop operates in just 17 countries, the scams are hitting users worldwide.
⏳ Limited-Time Scams
Fake product listings use urgency tactics like countdown timers to pressure users into impulsive crypto deposits. 💸
💰 Too-Good-To-Be-True “Deals”
Massive discounts and Tether (USDT) as payment bait users into sending crypto—with no real products in return.
🧠 Social Engineering on the Rise
Fraudsters pose as TikTok affiliates on WhatsApp and Telegram, promising fake commissions and showing fake earnings.
🚨 Young Users at Higher Risk
With TikTok's younger demographic (18–34), researchers warn this group is especially vulnerable to slick social media scams.
⚠️ Stay Smart, Stay Safe
Always double-check URLs, be skeptical of urgency tactics, and never send crypto to unverified sources. If it seems too good to be true—it probably is.
