Pi Network warns pioneers about phishing scams with fake wallets
As Pi Network progresses into its open mainnet phase, the core team has issued a new warning to its global users, urging caution against phishing scams that mimic the official Pi Network Wallet interface. These scams are designed to steal secret passwords from unsuspecting users.
The official Pi Network wallet is only available at wallet.pinet.com through the Pi browser. It has a distinctive visual identity with a purple navigation bar and the Pi logo, which includes the icon of the core team applications.
According to the notice, several fake websites have emerged with interfaces almost identical to the original but hosted on misleading URLs. Users who enter their passwords on these fake sites risk losing their Pi permanently.
The Pi browser works similarly to Chrome or Safari. This means users need to verify whether the sites they visit are legitimate. The core team emphasized that it cannot control the use of the browser and urged users to remain vigilant.
No member of the Pi Core team will ever ask for passwords, passcodes, or wallet verification codes. The team also clarified that they do not contact users via phone calls or unsolicited messages. Any interaction of this kind should be regarded as a scam attempt.
