A significant phishing attack is targeting web3/DeFi platforms, including ours.​ Scammers are creating fake blog sites mimicking our brand to deceive users.​

How the scam works:

  • Fake blogs are set up, pretending to offer platform information
  • Legitimate services are abused to host these sites, boosting credibility
  • Content changes to redirect users to fraudulent sites once indexed

Stay safe by:

  • Accessing services through official links only
  • Being cautious of suspicious search results
  • Never sharing seed phrases or private keys
  • Using bookmarks for quick access to official sites

We're actively monitoring and removing these fraudulent sites.​ Please share this information to help protect others.​
