I want to take a moment to clear up something important.

Lately, there’s been a rise in fake Telegram groups and channels impersonating real influencers to scam people—especially in the crypto space. Scammers copy names, photos, and branding to appear legit, then lure victims with fake offers or “help.”

Recently, someone shared they were scammed by a Telegram channel using the name "Shaffiq Jaffery Official." It’s crucial to understand: just because a scammer uses an influencer’s name doesn’t mean that person is involved. These are common tactics, and sadly, many fall for them.

Here’s the truth: influencers can’t control fake accounts or groups made in their name. It’s not fair to blame them without verifying facts or checking official sources. The real enemy here is the scammer, not the person being impersonated.

Please, always stay vigilant:

Only trust verified channels and links

Never engage with random DMs or suspicious accounts

Double-check before investing or sharing any info

Crypto should be empowering—not a trap.

Stay smart. Stay safe.
