Recently, a serious topic needs attention. According to relevant reports, the tactics of global financial scammers are upgrading. They no longer simply use loan traps to deceive people; now they disguise themselves as "professional brokers" and commit fraud under the guise of cryptocurrency and securities trading.
The numbers are frightening—on average, each scam can trap about 1 billion rubles. Last year alone, security agencies identified and cooperated with law enforcement to crack down on 38 such cases. What does this indicate? It shows that scammers have found a new "hunting ground" in the field of crypto trading.
The scheme is roughly as follows: scammers register what appears to be a legitimate trading platform or broker account, using various professional terms and attractive profit promises to lure you. Once you invest funds, they will create various reasons—such as slippage losses, fee traps, unfreezing charges—and gradually drain your wallet.
To avoid falling into traps, remember these points: 1. Legitimate exchanges have clear regulatory qualifications and official website information; never trust "brokers" that are only active on social media. 2. Promises of easy profits are basically bait. 3. Do not transfer funds easily to personal accounts, and especially avoid clicking on unfamiliar links.
The crypto market itself is highly volatile, and combined with scam risks, beginners need to be extra cautious. Trading on legitimate exchanges and managing your funds securely should always be the top priority.

Is it the same scheme again? I've seen it before. A friend of mine was scammed like this last year, and he's still upset about it.
