Common patterns

Scams frequently rely on urgency, authority impersonation, unrealistic returns, fake support, malicious links, fraudulent presales, or requests to connect a wallet and sign unexpected permissions.

Warning signs

  • Guaranteed returns.
  • Unsolicited support messages.
  • Requests for seed phrases.
  • Pressure to act immediately.
  • Lookalike domains.
  • Unexpected token approvals.
  • Claims that funds must be sent first to unlock a withdrawal.
When something feels urgent, independently verify the project or service through a known official channel before taking any action.
