Scammers in a top exchanges telegram groups

[Linkkoin]

(.....)

this is a reason why telegram channel is not good for communication since there are many scammers always waiting for another victim that they can fool.
Its always happen not only in exchange support but in other group also even ico or any crowdfunding group.

The better way to contact directly the support in email if you have a problem than using a telgram group for contact.

1. No one from the exchange will ever ask you for a password (they see your account in their CRM by the email you provided them with)
2. No one will ask you via any application for sending any cryptos, no one will give you any address there
3. If you have any issues - ask directly on website's chat (if available) or email them officially. Not via facebook - as often social media may be outsourced to a third party.

Hmm, scammers always try to discover ways of scamming. This is one way of them. Always we need to avoid such messages if the person send message upfront. And always try to find out correct person for solving any issue.

See this photo, it could be help you.



So before contacting any admin try to visit all members list and you will find that someone marked with Admin, owner, marketing manager, etc.. Thank you.

Yes, this is the truth! I have faced this problem every time when I asked help in any familiar crypto exchange group! This is why all the exchange's admin wrote in their name that Admin won't pm you first! Binance did a great job, to prevent these shit scammers, binance closed all the help services from telegram! If you need any kind of help, you have to ask through Binance website help desk, not in telegram group!

It's always safer to write to support team on exchanges instead of going to telegram where scammers are patiently waiting for their preys or just block direct messages on telegram, ICO teams or exchange teams will never PM you first

It happened to me a lot after asking about some concern on exchange groups more than 5 users will contact me they're either copying the name of the admin and avatar or pretending to be part of the team and asking for credentials and information about you and your concern.

I'm so fed up with this and pranking them always trying to go with the flow and pretending that I'm so stupid that they will finally gave up and say something unnecessary to me.

This is why I don't really tread too far in communications in people. Why would they require a "deposit from you to get the issue resolved"? That is just indeed adding alcohol to the wound you made. I wonder how many people fell for these stupid trap.
Avoid telegram if there's more of an alternative reach to these popular platforms like their official e-mail if they have any. Although they might link their own Facebook page, I don't recommend people to have a communication there. Many pages are faked so easily.

1. How can we help you?
2. What problem are you facing on our exchange?

They will pretend to be the exchange help service and they will ask you to make deposit to get your issue resolved, honestly if you aren't familiar with scammers you can easily fall victim

Group channel of exchanges like binance, kucoin, Okex, huobi are full of scammers waiting for people that needs the team help to resolve an issue, be wise

I get this kind of message every day. If I reply to something in an Exchange group like Binance, the scammers come to my inbox and claim to be a support team. These scammers never trap me. And this is an old tactic we all know why they give private messages!

That's the safest way nowadays, telegram is full of scammers now! Not only this, scammers have many unique plans to steal people's money. I have never seen any other platform that has more scammers than in telegram! It is always safe to contact through the email or the help desk direct through the exchange support! If someone needs quick help from telegram then they must have checked the username first, no admins pm first!

Every single telegram channels or groups of crypto exchanges are tagged by scammers, be extremely careful

That's it, they lurk around exchanges because it is easier to see people who might have issues and at the same time people who might be ignorant of the ways of scammers. And just like you said and to contribute as well, people should be aware of who they reply to; admins don't send PM first, it is the duty of the person with the issue to send the PM. Secondly, admins will never ask for ETH or any form of payment. Lastly, make sure you see the admin tag before sending a PM and be sure to take note of your first message once the admin replies to be sure you are chatting with the right person and not a clone.

[qazgroup]

Not only exchanges this trend has been growing in all projects telegram channels where as soon as you ask a question or resolution to your issue atleast 2 to 3 messages pop up all claiming to be official people and in the end they will ask you to deposit certain amount of coins like eth or btc to their wallets so they can resolve your issue, every person should spot and report these scammers.

[bttmember]

I have experienced the same thing recently, i am in Crypterium telegram channel, it is a wallet and crypto card based project, i was inquiring about the crypto card in their channel and was looking for official response vut at the same time i received DMs from some ids that were fake vut using the same names and avatars as real admins, i tried to check their admin tags and was not found, secondly, the admins in the official channel never DM anyone first, it is in their rules, so it was easy to spot scammers and that is why i ignored them and deleted their post.

This is very common not even on top exchanges telegram alone but also on the bounty telegrams.  I have received a lot of private messages from scammers claiming to be an admin from a particular project or the other, once I see them I block them immediately.  Recently a scammer messaged me and said he wanted to help me with the challenge I have with Bcnex exchange, I knew he was  a scammer when he asked me to transfer a particular quantity of BTC if I want my transaction to be resolved fast.  There are just whole lots of them.  However, if you look carefully their telegram usernames will have a minute difference from that of the real admins.  Newbies should be more careful.

[kindbtc]

I do face a lot of them too and i personally either just ignore them or just block them, i do not know how these scammers covince their own conscience to scam others and how these scammers can even get a peaceful sleep, it is amazing to see that some people foes not even care even a bit for others loss.

[Em00n01]

It's a common thing for me. I have received over 3000+ spam msg like this. As i was a bounty and community manager they tried to scam me by cloning our CEO's account.

Just remember whenever you need help no admin will PM you first. Most of the time They try to solve each problem on their public group. Turn on the privacy setting. No unknown people won't be able to PM you first.

[bitstalker]

to avoid this is sometimes difficult because the scammers are very smart they can manipulate the telegram admin profile on an exchange so it's good to avoid them never use admin help on the telegram, but directly use the help on their exchange, because now all exchanges must have a help feature desk and each of our problems will be processed through the queue with the ticket system.

in my opinion it is the most appropriate method to filter messages from strangers but there are still some problems that often occur in telegrams such as for example you suddenly enter an unknown group or a group that you should not enter because there are usually many actors The scammer will put you in a group suddenly.

[H1N1]

Scammers are everywhere, not only in top exchanges telegram groups, they can make many accounts to scam peoples.
The most important thing is, never trust anyone if they contact or pm you first, it has possibility that they want to scam you.
Admin on telegram groups usually doesn't contact their user first.

[terizla]

This problem is same with my problem that i share in this forum 1 year ago.

I haven't heard that there are issues like these that are related to big exchanges, are you saying that the exchange itself is the scam? because binance is a reputable exchange and I am not so sure if they will do some tricks like these as it can surely ruin their reputation. There are many scammers everywhere and their tactics are also keep on growing like they can easily upgrade any tactics that they have just to scam the other people.

This kind of tactics is a little bit old but most of the newbies are not aware of this, if someone will contact you and they will say that they are the customer support then you have 2 options. First is to ignore them and second is to talk to them but make sure that you will not send any money even if tell you to do so.
