Beware of Fake Investments Related to AI/GPT and Computing Resources
In recent years, the fields of artificial intelligence (AI), particularly Generative Pre-trained Transformers (GPT), and computing resources have seen explosive growth and innovation. However, this surge in interest has also attracted a wave of scammers and fraudulent schemes looking to exploit the excitement and naivety of unsuspecting investors. It is crucial to exercise caution and be aware of the risks associated with fake investments in these areas. Common Types of Fake Investment Schemes
Beware of emails from Fake Binance A large amount of data shows that impersonating Binance officials is the lowest-cost scam method. As shown in the figure, the attacker impersonates Binance and claims that the user's account has security risks, thereby trying to get the user to transfer funds to the fraudulent address. 1. The address in the figure is obviously fabricated out of thin air. You should learn to use the browser to confirm the authenticity of the address. 2. Pay attention to the syntax of the fake email, which may have problems. 3. You should learn to use Binance Verify to confirm whether the sender of the email is from the official. 4. If you cannot complete the above, please contact Binance official customer service.

Continue to expose scammers impersonating Binance Scammers continue to impersonate Binance, organize Telegram groups, induce users to mining "investment" and promise high profits. This is not from Binance officials. If you are participating in these fake investments, please stop immediately, call the police and report them to us.
Fake Binance's attacks continue Have you seen the scam method in the picture? In the early stage, the scammers guided the victims to invest. After the victims invested a certain amount of money, the generated income had increased dozens of times, and they pretended to be Binance to induce you to pay security fees. Even so obvious, many people are still defrauded. Please note: 1) Binance will not actively guide you to invest and withdraw funds to unfamiliar addresses. 2) Please verify whether the email is from Binance official through Binance Verify. 3) Never believe in low-threshold and high-profit investments, 99.99% of them are scams.
The promised high-profit investment is a SCAM Someone contacts you on a weekend afternoon, maybe from an unfamiliar phone number, or through WhatsApp, Telegram, and invites you to participate in crypto investment, ensuring high returns (perhaps an investment project of "Elon Musk"), will you be tempted? The reality is that the investment software you participate in will indeed show far more returns than you can imagine, but you can never withdraw the money smoothly because your investment principal has been locked by the scammers. In this case, all "taxes" and "security fees" are tricks for further fraud. In the world of crypto, if you are a novice, please pay attention to risk! Before you participate in an uncertain investment, you can consult Binance official customer service for help.

Fake Binance and TrustWallet investment mining A common scam used by scammers is to impersonate Binance employees and trick individuals into using Trust Wallet to wire funds to fake mining investments. These scammers often create convincing stories and fake platforms to make it look like you are investing in a legitimate mining operation.

This is an organized and very malicious attack, please be careful.

Beware of YUNJI scam in the Middle East YUNJI scam is spreading in the Middle East (especially the UAE). Scammers claim that as long as users participate in the fixed investment, they will get high returns. In fact, when withdrawing, scammers will ask for additional tax fees, which is obviously a scam. The current website of the YUNJI scam project is: yunji815.com. Because the cost of registering the website is very low, scammers will frequently switch the website address. Please be sure to pay attention to the essence of the scam, that is: high return rate (promise of no loss). Usually, we can query the whois information of the website to assist in judging whether the project has risks. For example, if the registration time of the website is too short, it means that the website has certain risks. If you are still participating in the JUNJI project, please stop the operation in time and report it to Binance. #StaySafeInTheCryptoWorld
