Bad actors are attracted to the blockchain space due to its anonymous nature; these individuals seek to scam and steal funds from investors. This time, a group of fraudsters targets the already embattled investors of the bankrupt crypto exchange FTX. To target these potential victims, scammers offer the return of their lost funds.
On Friday, the troubled exchange issued an alert to prevent its community from being a victim of this scam. The new attack vector to bait FTX customers impersonates the platform. Bad actors ask for a payment as a fee to allegedly transfer funds or require an account password to trick their victims.
While addressing its community in a recent tweet, the FTX team confirmed that the exchange’s debaters and agents never ask for a fee or an account’s sensitive information. The tweet reads:
We are aware of active third-party scams and frauds seeking to take advantage of FTX customers. Please note that neither the FTX debater nor any of their agent will ask you
