Binance Users Are in for a Shocking Surprise You Won’t Believe

TL;DR (Too Lazy to Read, Didn’t Think This Would Happen To You) 🚨

Scammers have donned the digital trench coat of Binance support and are slithering about places like Telegram, desperately trying to convince people that malicious links are the modern-day equivalent of free cake. Spoiler: They’re not.
Binance’s CEO, ever the beacon of reassurance, cryptically claimed the company never sleeps—presumably fueled by equal parts caffeine and existential dread. Despite this, you still have to be smarter than the average crypto-support impersonator. Good luck!

A picture probably meant to make you feel secure, but now just makes you itchy.

‘Scammers Never Sleep’ – Unlike You, Who Now Has to Worry

Cryptocurrency: the land of infinite opportunity, technical marvels, and approximately 87,324 different ways to get robbed before breakfast. It turns out, while the best techno-wizards are building rocket-powered blockchains, a rogue gallery of wrongdoers is also hard at work, inventing bold new excuses to ask for your passwords.

Not long ago, Binance bravely shouted into the internet void, “Watch out for fake support!”—because impersonators have decided that telegramming you under false names is the next best thing to actual customer service. Their pitch: Something terrible (but perfectly vague) has happened and only a highly suspicious link can save you. After all, nothing says “trustworthy” like reset your details immediately or else.

Classic move: send the link, hope you’re not paying attention, and—shazam!—your credentials are now winging their merry way to a basement somewhere. Poor Jackie learned the hard way after a faux-urgent email full of more red flags than a semaphore competition. Luckily, Jackie managed to avoid a full loss—but only because she found the cunning plot less plausible than an honest politician.

The only advice: treat every message about urgent issues or surprise prizes like you would a wild animal on the Underground. Don’t touch, don’t reply, and definitely don’t click.

Meanwhile, the insomniac CEO Richard Teng, presumably wrapped in a blanket of blinking security monitors, tweeted, “We’re on it … but you should probably pay attention too.” In short: they’ll help, but if you keep wandering the internet clicking whatever flashes, well, even they have limits.

Phishing is real, scammers are lazy, and absolutely everyone wants your codes. “We’re here for you! But, you know, maybe try not to make it too easy for them.”

The Previous Attacks: Or, How Not To Lose Crypto In 10 Seconds Flat

Earlier this year, a fresh round of “innovative” scams arrived, this time in the form of SMS messages more dramatic than a daytime soap. Recipients were warned that their accounts had been accessed from North Korea. Because, obviously, where else would a hacker be? Cue panic, sweating, and hasty wallet transfers “for investigation.”

Joe Zhou, an average (and soon to be poorer) Binance user, followed instructions, only to later wonder if perhaps setting up a mystery wallet for a total stranger wasn’t his finest decision. A friend from Binance confirmed: “Yep, you’ve been had.” The good news: Joe only lost a small slice—a tragic but all-too-common crypto appetizer.

In conclusion: If someone says they’re support, asks you to click a shady link, or mentions North Korean hackers, perhaps just turn off your device and go make a cup of tea instead. Statistically, it’s safer. ☕️
