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

telegram is a place where scammers are free to do what they want because the message is easily deleted.

This example is just one of a million strategy they use,so if you wanted to keep safe then better keep distance in using telegram.

i am not saying that all in telegram are scam,and also this is not happening in other social media site but at least this is the most popular cases we have here.

of course it will be a problem for people who have just joined or never experienced that problem before.
I will not believe if customer service asks us to make a deposit or transfer, so if a problem occurs I already know what to do.

Don't give your time to strangers once you start dealing with crypto, there is 99% chance that those strangers what to take advantage of you, change your security settings in telegram app so that strangers can't PM you first unless you PM them.

Telegram scams have been increasing as per the time and we have to simply stop it. Many newbies get scam on telegram, just because of their greedy nature and lack of knowledge. I think we just need not reply to the unknown users who try to start a conversion, doing this simple thing can help you to not get in the scam.

Scammers are everywhere, don't be surprised that scammers are among those that replied to your post, that is the way it is right now. We have them everywhere, they can be the one making suggestions on forum at times and that is why we need to be careful.

Telegram scammers are easy to dealt with, just change your privacy or security settings on your telegram, no outsiders will be able to message you first unless you send them Private message first.

These strangers (scammers) will always PM anyone who have already asked about the technical problem that already faced by them all.

It's better to deal only on its main group and anything that came outside from the group can be considered as scam too.

I often get a PM from people like that. they claim to be from the technical team that can help the problems we experience. but I did not reply to their message. I know they will not help anything.
True! Many teams announced beforehand that they're not going to PM anyone personally. Therefore, when you receive a message from anyone who claimed they're from the team, just ignore it! All of the technical problems will be discussed in the main chatting group!

Those scammers can steal the picture or identity that being used by the admine but they can't steal the telegram link that already used by admin. There was a lot of admins in various groups aware about this and they have been creating so many awareness thread and keep it update anytime.

Impersonation is very common in crypto telegram groups, either top exchanges group or popular altcoins group, since I've been using telegram I haven't seen a real PM from people that aren't scammers, we need to be careful

Its already a classic way of scamming but there are still newbie investors that getting being fooled just because they have thought that they are dealing with the right person
without even knowing or trying to make up some verification before making any transaction that they should think first that behind tx will really be an unsual stuff to happen
and with that alone you can already presume out that theres some shady acts happening but people are just too dumb.

I think this method has grown like all other scam methods not because of the idea being good but because people do believe in it. That is the thing about scams, if you can scam people by doing something, others will start doing it as well and it will get bigger and bigger. You think "Nigerian prince scam" is something silly and when you get a mail like that you delete it and laugh at it right?

Well, there are tens of millions of dollars scammed that way every single year, it is not a stupid scam because it works every single year, it is just common sense to people who use internet for a long time to know it, but elderly still fall for it. So, now you know telegram group scammers exist, and you laugh that they think it might work on you, but the thing is, it does work on some people to some degree.

Yes. This happens very often when we submit complaints to the telegram group. Immediately there will be parties who try to commit fraud. The end of their question is asking to make a deposit. They changed the name of the telegram to the name of the group admin.
The official admin does not ask for any deposits to make the withdrawal process. They only ask for email. Because they can confirm based on email.

Real admins of telegram groups usually write in their profile that they will never be the first to send a private message. Also, I met a warning that scammers are faking the nicknames of administrators, changing or adding one sign or letter that may not be visible at first glance. Therefore, even such information must be carefully checked.

In this kind of industry we cannot really eradicate those who are good in taking advantage to other such as scammers. I think we just need to be more vigilant and more cautious in dealing with such cases like that in order for us to avoid being scammed by scammers and con artists.

I often get that, when I ask a question in a group it will be answered by a stranger asking for help. not only a problem in the exchanger, but also the project group or bounty. there must be someone who sends a personal message offering a variety of investments with large and varied profit gains. my advice, do not you respond to it.
