⚠️ Crypto Scam Surge –

2025’s Digital Crime Wave

Crypto scams have exploded in 2025, with global losses topping $9.9 billion in just six months. From phishing attacks and rug pulls to AI-powered frauds, the scale and sophistication of scams are unprecedented. Ethereum-based exploits alone accounted for over $1.5 billion, targeting both users and protocols.

AI deepfakes and “pig butchering” romance scams have become common, luring victims with emotional manipulation and fake investment apps. Even major exchanges haven’t been spared—BigONE lost $27 million in a hot wallet breach, and CoinDCX in India saw $44 million drained.

As scammers adapt quickly, the crypto space faces a crisis of trust. Without stronger safeguards and user education, 2025 may go down as crypto’s most dangerous year yet.
