Threat Intelligence
A definitive breakdown of active social engineering tactics and scam primitives targeting the decentralized economy.
DM Trading (The #1 Scam)
Bad actors message you directly pretending to be exchangers or support.
"Hey, I can help you with your ticket. Send funds here..."
"Please wait for an admin to confirm in this ticket..."
Impersonation
Scammers copy names/avatars of trusted staff.
Fake Payment Proofs
Doctored screenshots of payments never sent.
Chargeback Fraud
Buyers reverse payments (Paypal/Stripe) after receiving crypto. We only support non-reversible methods.
Pressure Tactics
Artificial urgency ('Sale ends in 5 mins!'). Legitimate traders always give you time to verify.
If something feels off, open a support ticket. Our team will help verify legitimacy.
Defense Tip
Turn your Discord DMs OFF for the server. There is zero reason for a legitimate staff member or exchanger to message you outside of a ticket.
Security Advisor
Always double-check the Wallet Address in the ticket. Scammers may try to paste a fake address right after an admin pastes the real one.
