Cryptocurrency scams are on the rise
#CryptoScamSurge has been on the rise lately, especially as markets hit new all-time highs. Ripple CEO Brad Harlinghaus warned that scammers have ramped up phishing schemes with fake XRP giveaways on YouTube, posing as official Ripple accounts.
These scams are becoming more sophisticated, which could undermine trust in legitimate crypto projects. As a result, social networks may tighten regulation, which will also affect honest content creators.
Users should be careful: check sources, enable two-factor authentication, and do not click on suspicious links. It is also important to report scam pages to protect others.
How to avoid scams?
- Do not believe ads about "free" crypto giveaways.
- Make sure the page is official (check the confirmation box), but this does not work with Twitter.
- Use only official sites and applications.
- Be vigilant - in the world of cryptocurrency, caution saves money!
