If you’re holding any amount of crypto, this might be the most important post you read today.
Scammers are getting smarter. And now they’re using your own past against you.
If your info was ever caught in the Ledger hack or the recent Coinbase data breach, you’re a prime target.
Here are 3 real scams happening right now:
1️⃣ The “Free Ledger” Trap
- You receive a hardware wallet in the mail you didn’t order. It says: “We detected a breach. Move your crypto to this secure wallet.”
- You plug it in. You enter your seed phrase. Your funds disappear.
2️⃣ Fake Coinbase Support
- You get a call from someone who knows your full name, email, and balance.
- They say your account’s under attack and guide you to “safely” transfer your assets.
- Spoiler: it’s a scam.
3️⃣ SIM Swap Hijack
- Using data from breaches and social media, attackers convince your carrier to port your number.
- Now they can reset passwords, drain accounts, and bypass 2FA in minutes.
It doesn’t matter how secure the exchange is - if your phone number is compromised, you’re compromised.
