Avoid crypto scams
by protecting your digital assets
Whether you are new to crypto or an experienced investor, our goal is to equip you with the knowledge you need to recognize, report, and avoid scams.
Top Tips for Avoiding Cryptocurrency Scams
Use Two-Factor Authentication (2FA):
Add an extra layer of protection to your accounts by enabling 2FA. It's a simple step that can make a big difference.
Keep your private keys private:
Never share your private keys or recovery phrases. Not with friends, not with support staff-no one should ever ask for them.
Double-check URLs:
Before logging into any crypto site, take a second to verify the URL. Look for the correct web address and make sure it's secure with HTTPS.
Stay alert to phishing scams:
Watch out for emails or messages asking for your login details or personal information. If something feels off, trust your instincts and don't click.
Stick to reputable exchanges and wallets:
Only use well-established and trusted platforms to store and trade your cryptocurrencies.
Don't fall for "Too Good to Be True" offers:
Be wary of investments promising huge returns with no risk. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
Keep an eye on your accounts:
Regularly check your crypto accounts for any suspicious activity. It's better to catch it early.
Keep your software updated:
Make sure your devices and crypto software are always running the latest updates to protect against security vulnerabilities.
Stay informed:
Knowledge is your best defense. Keep learning about the latest scams and how to spot them.
