Binance warns users of phishing scams on WhatsApp

Binance has issued a warning to its users about rising phishing scams conducted through WhatsApp, where fraudsters impersonate its representatives to solicit personal information or funds. The company emphasized that it will never reach out to users via WhatsApp for investment opportunities or to request payments, a message critical for users in regions like France and Italy, where these scams are particularly prevalent. Users are encouraged to verify any claims of representation through Binance’s official channels, including their customer support portal, verified social media accounts, and the Binance Verify tool, which helps confirm the legitimacy of any contact.
