Foresight News reports that Binance CEO Richard Teng tweeted that the team recently discovered a scam involving fake Binance customer service calls requesting changes to user APIs. Scammers use spoofed numbers or VoIP technology to contact users, claiming 'Your Binance account may be at risk. We need to immediately adjust your API settings to ensure the safety of your funds.' The scammers then use the newly gained permissions to initiate withdrawal operations, transferring cryptocurrency directly to wallets they control.
Foresight News reminds you to pay attention to safety precautions.
