#AirdropSafetyGuide The Binance Airdrop Safety Guide is a set of guidelines created to help users protect themselves against scams involving airdrops — free distributions of cryptocurrencies that are often used by scammers as bait to steal data, private keys, or funds.
Here are the main points of this security guide:
---
1. Understand what an Airdrop is
A legitimate airdrop distributes free tokens as part of marketing strategies or to reward users. They usually require only simple actions like following a page or filling out a form — they never require sending funds or sensitive data.
---
2. Be wary of promises that seem too good to be true
Scammers often offer high amounts of cryptocurrency in exchange for small actions or fees. Never send cryptocurrency to "unlock" an airdrop.
---
3. Protect your personal information and private keys
Never share your private key, seed phrase, or password with anyone.
Fraudulent websites may ask for this data with a professional appearance — always check the URL and the authenticity of the page.
---
4. Use secure wallets
Keep your cryptocurrencies in trusted and updated wallets.
Avoid connecting your wallet to unknown websites — "wallet drainer" scams are common.
---
5. Be cautious of phishing and fake links
Do not click on links from messages on Telegram, WhatsApp, or emails from unverified senders.
Binance will never ask for your password or funds via direct message.
---
6. Always verify through official sources
Check Binance’s official channels (website, blog, Twitter, etc.) to confirm if the airdrop is real.
Use Binance Academy to educate yourself about security in crypto.
