Scammers in a top exchanges telegram groups

[hulla]

Scammer stealing from people through top exchange telegram groups is not something new and it not the exchange fault. However, it also happened to Binance users 2years ago if i remember correctly but i still think people need to perfectly understand how to protect themselves from telegram scammers.

Scammers are everywhere in this crypto space. And top projects or top exchange's telegram group are full of scammers. They text you first. And they pretent likebthey are admin of those group. And they try to solve your problem. Most of us who are in this space for a long time know how to handle them. But they are thread for new comers. So those who are new be careful. This space is full of scammers so put every step very carefully.

Very true, wise in addressing a problem is really needed now, and when we have a problem then do not immediately express it in the group in general, because the potential for fraud is when we immediately give it to the group without informing the admin first.

We should never trust the private message from admin on telegram because  most of them are scammer.
reading pinned message in telegram group is the best way to know that the admin of the group doesn't pm you first.

They are everywhere even in projects groups. They are fast to sending you a direct message when you complain about anything offering to help you. Once you see a message in your pm without asking for it or without the admin saying he will message just ignore it and block them.

It's sad that the telegram is still used for these purpose and gullible people are still falling for this. It started during the ico times where they PM you with a offer to buy . Thought people are more smart now.

I often receive PMs from fools like them (scammers) but it's a pity they can never cheat me because I already know a lot about their ways to fool everyone

[betty11]

I always block them and report spam, only the greedy and newbie fall for their tricks they imitate the main admin's name to perpetrate fraudulent act. Never respond to any suspicious help in PM.

Just to make it simple, "no admin in telegram will send you a DM or even ask for your credentials." This actually happens a lot of times especially if you ask for help from an admin. Mostly, an admin will send you a message in the group saying he sent you a DM, click on the admin's profile to make sure you will be directed to the admin's chatbox.

Any reasonable person should know telegram is not the right place to sort out account issue. This is the major reason why most exchange platform have a section where users can submit ticket in order to solve problem majority of them are facing.This is no joke because I know many people will fall for this scam. Alot of people on telegram are hungry lion looking for who to feed on

[SanZoldyck]

this is my experience, the of me just entered the official binance group in the telegram, and I asked about the referral ID, suddenly someone DM me and said
Scammer: Hi
me: what
Scammer: Hi, my admin, can I help you?

before I reply again, I matched the name of my DM admin with the official binance telegram and it turns out that my DM is a scammer with the same telegram ID name and similar telegram photos

that's my experience, when someone contacts you claiming to be admin binance look at the telegram ID and match the original admin in the telegram or ask the official group

This is for all newbies and those who don't know, please share among friends

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

The moment you have a problem with an exchange you will instantly get messages from people claiming to be team of the exchange, you can get the following messages

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

Agree with you, when I ask questions in telegram groups. Immediately there will be a few scammer pretending to be the admin of those channels send me messages. If we are not careful, I believe we will be deceived, they will answer very enthusiastically. But until the end they will ask for our password or private key account

The reason why there's a support sections from exchange sites, they are providing help though some sites have a very slow answers once you ask queries or when you send questions or complains, but the its much safer to everyone who have problems from the services that the sites offers. No need to listen to anyone especially from chat sites where risk is very high due to polluted scammers that rounding inside.

Many scammers in telegram it is given that they really do exists so our part is never trust those people. I have experience this kind of scam in telegram convincing to transfer funds on the project that they promote. So that’s true never trust and better block those scammer.

The famous tactic is impersonation and they talk with you as a "team member" and actually forget to add the "kindness". Scammers know how to scam other people and they become more professional after each failed scam attempt. Blocking these accounts is the one-way street and they will come with a new nickname for taking more from you. Only taking money from the victims calm them down, so everyone has to do their own diligence. Similar names can not be observed from first look, there is always more behind the scam accounts.

Impersonate. The scammer creates an account similar to the admin and group manager. One important rule that you must understand and that is always the main warning in every telegram group: Admin never PM you first.
Be sure to double-check accounts with official tags.

It's funny how people still fall prey to common scams, especially when you join an exchange group or project group and immediately someone chats you up to invest privately. A project or exchange admin can't just chat you first, trying to be of help or asking you to invest when you don't chat them up. People who fall prey to this form of scam are either newbies or greedy, imagine a fake admin telling you to invest privately and you will have 50% slash on price, then you fall prey. We need to wise up!

many cases like this in telegrams they often create accounts that are exactly the same as those of the admin and commit fraud by sending messages on telegram accounts, I also often get messages like that by offering huge profits but I always ignore those messages
