He Yi issues consecutive reminders: Beware of scams impersonating official announcements via GRAM transfers and address poisoning

PANews November 1 news: Binance co-founder Yi He posted two consecutive posts on the X platform, reminding users to be vigilant against new types of scams and phishing tactics emerging amid the chaotic situation. The post she reposted said that recently scammers have been using Telegram's GRAM transfer function to send users small amounts of GRAM, and attaching a fake "Binance official announcement" in the transaction information, claiming that Binance has been hacked and user assets are unsafe, inducing users to transfer their assets into a so-called "Binance vault." In addition, after Binance resumed withdrawals of some tokens, attackers sent "poisoning" transactions with identical first and last characters to a large number of addresses. If users copy addresses directly from transaction records, or if their clipboard is tampered with by malware, their assets may be transferred to the attacker's address. Users should fully verify the recipient address before withdrawing.
