There's a big scam alert going around involving Binance, one of the world's largest cryptocurrency exchanges. Scammers are using various tactics to trick users into giving away their sensitive information or cryptocurrency.
One common scam is the "New Login Detected" text scam, where users receive a fake message claiming their account has been accessed from a foreign country. The message provides a phone number to call for assistance, but it's actually a scam to steal login credentials or cryptocurrency. ¹
Another scam involves fake support staff contacting users through messaging platforms like WhatsApp, asking for identity verification and a video of their face. This is used to bypass biometric authentication systems and gain unauthorized access to accounts. ²
There was also a recent data breach where a cybersecurity researcher uncovered a database containing 149 million login credentials, including 420,000 Binance credentials. This was due to infostealer malware on users' devices, not a breach of Binance's internal systems. ³ ⁴
To stay safe, Binance recommends:
- Verifying suspicious messages through official channels
- Enabling two-factor authentication (2FA)
- Avoiding clicking on suspicious links or downloading software from untrusted sources
- Not sharing sensitive information or 2FA codes with anyone
Follow-up questions:
- Have you received any suspicious messages or calls claiming to be from Binance?
- Are you using 2FA to secure your Binance account?
