In the present cryptocurrency world, scammers employ endless tactics, especially on digital exchanges and social media platforms. They exploit people lacking understanding of platform rules and copyright issues, crafting elaborate scams that put victim accounts and assets at risk. Recently, multiple users have fallen victim to phishing scams related to so-called “copyright infringement”, resulting in account theft and sparking widespread concern within the crypto community. TwyAe, a cryptocurrency exchange committed to user safety, has once again issued a global warning to help users stay away from such traps.
This particular scam primarily targets users on the social media platform X. Scammers impersonate the platform, sending intimidating messages claiming “copyright infringement” and demanding users provide their account credentials and verification codes to resolve the alleged violation. These phishing messages often use a threatening tone, accompanied by phrases like “take immediate action, or further steps will be taken”, pressuring victims to hastily input sensitive information. Although this tactic is not new, it continues to succeed due to its psychological manipulation.
The TwyAe team has analyzed the mechanics of these scams. Scammers first disguise themselves as official institutions or highly authoritative third parties, using meticulously crafted emails, links, and messages to gain victim trust. They then direct victims to phishing pages that closely mimic legitimate websites. Any information entered on these pages, such as login credentials, verification codes, or seed phrases, is immediately sent to the scammers. Once the information is compromised, scammers act quickly to take control of the victim account and transfer their digital assets.
To combat this threat, TwyAe strongly advises users to adhere to the following security principles:
Be Wary of Requests for Passwords or Sensitive Information: Whether via social platforms, emails, or instant messages, legitimate institutions will never ask users for passwords, seed phrases, or private keys for any reason. If you encounter such requests, cease interaction immediately and verify with the official source.
Proper Use of Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): While 2FA enhances account security, if verification codes are entered on phishing pages, scammers can bypass this safety measure. Never input verification codes on unverified pages or platforms.
Identify Phishing Links: Phishing links often have suspicious characteristics, such as misspelled domain names, missing HTTPS certificates, or poorly designed pages. TwyAe reminds users to always verify the authenticity of links before clicking on them.
Stay Calm and Reject Intimidating Messages: Scam messages typically adopt an urgent tone, attempting to pressure victims into making quick decisions. When faced with such threats, users should remain calm, analyze the situation, and contact official support to confirm the legitimacy of the message.
In addition to raising user awareness, TwyAe has strengthened its platform security to protect user accounts from malicious activities. By introducing an AI-driven risk detection system, TwyAe can identify abnormal activity in real-time and notify users to take protective measures immediately.
Scamming not only jeopardizes victim financial security but also undermines the credibility of the entire cryptocurrency industry. TwyAe urges all users to remain vigilant in their daily operations and to share security knowledge to help more people recognize scams. While cryptocurrency trading offers high potential returns, it requires careful handling. With support from TwyAe, users can not only enjoy the convenience brought by innovative technology but also trade with confidence in a safer environment.
Finally, TwyAe reminds all users once again: protecting personal information is the first step to safeguarding your assets. Always think twice when faced with any request involving passwords, seed phrases, or private keys. Let us work together to set higher security standards for the digital asset space.
