scam

Skala penipuan terkait kripto terus berkembang, dan data terbaru menyoroti betapa mahalnya tantangan ini. Menurut laporan terbaru dari Chainalysis, kerugian akibat penipuan kripto di seluruh dunia mencapai 17 miliar dolar AS pada tahun 2025, mencatat salah satu angka tahunan tertinggi yang pernah tercatat.
Pada pandangan pertama, angka ini menakutkan. Namun, jika dilihat lebih dekat, akan terlihat realitas yang lebih kompleks mengenai bagaimana ekosistem kripto berkembang—dan di mana kerentanan masih ada.
Dari Mana Kerugian Datang
Laporan tersebut menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar kerugian tidak berasal dari upaya phishing dasar atau penipuan dengan usaha rendah. Sebaliknya, model penipuan yang canggih mendominasi pada tahun 2025. Ini termasuk penipuan investasi, skema penyamaran, platform perdagangan palsu, dan serangan rekayasa sosial yang memanfaatkan kepercayaan daripada kelemahan teknis.

Hey there, welcome back! 👋
Can you believe we’re 25 days deep into our 90-Day Crypto Learning Challenge already? If you’ve been following along, you’ve built an awesome foundation—you know the basics of wallets, blockchains, and maybe even a little trading lingo. You should be seriously proud of that progress.
Now, as we move forward, things get a little more… real. Today, on Day 26, we’re tackling one of the most important topics for anyone in crypto: safety.
Think of everything we've learned so far as learning to drive. We’ve covered the dashboard (wallets), the rules of the road (blockchains), and how to use the pedals (buying/selling). Today, we learn how to spot potholes, avoid scams, and navigate safely. Because before we can chase any destination (profits!), we have to protect the vehicle (your hard-earned money).
This isn't meant to scare you—it's meant to empower you. Knowing these red flags is your best superpower in crypto.

Red Flag #1: The "Guaranteed Profit" Fantasy
The Claim: "Make 5x your money in a week!" "Daily guaranteed returns!" "This trading bot cannot lose."
The Reality: If you take one thing from this whole challenge, let it be this: In crypto, NOTHING is guaranteed. The market is wildly unpredictable. Anyone promising surefire profits isn't just optimistic—they're lying. These setups are almost always Ponzi schemes or outright theft.
Your Defense: Let "guaranteed profit" be your instant scam siren. Legit investors talk about risk management, research, and probabilities—not fairy tales.
Red Flag #2: The "Exclusive Private Group" Pressure Tactic
The Claim: "Join my private Telegram for the real signals!" "Pay now for my secret method!" "This offer closes in 10 minutes!"
The Reality: This preys on FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out—a feeling we're learning to manage!). Scammers create false urgency and exclusivity. Often, you pay a fee just to get into a group where the "signals" are either:
1. Pump-and-dumps (see below).
2. Fake trades designed to make you lose while the scammer profits.
Your Defense: Never pay for a "signal" group. The best education (like this 90-day challenge!) is free. If it’s secret, urgent, and requires payment, it’s a trap. Walk away.
Red Flag #3: The Classic Pump-and-Dump
The Scenario: Your Discord or X feed blows up: "🚀 $WEIRDCOIN launching NOW! Biggest partnership of the year!!! Get in before it's too late!!"
The Reality: This is a coordinated pump-and-dump. Organizers buy a cheap, obscure coin. They use hype and lies to create a buying frenzy (the pump), skyrocketing the price. Once enough people like us rush in, they sell everything at the peak (the dump), collapsing the price and leaving everyone else with worthless tokens.
Your Defense: Ignore hyper-social media hype for unknown coins. If you didn’t find it through your own research (DYOR—a term we’ll dive deeper into soon!), don’t buy it based on a post. Real projects have public teams, clear goals, and working products.

Your Safety Action Plan
1. Become Your Own Bank (Seriously): This is the core of crypto.
· Security First: Always enable 2FA (Two-Factor Authentication) on exchanges/wallets. Use an app like Google Authenticator, not just SMS.
· Guard Your Seed Phrase: The 12-24 word recovery phrase for your wallet is the ultimate key. Store it offline, never digital, and never, ever share it. No legitimate support person will ever ask for it.
2. Embrace "DYOR" (Do Your Own Research): This is your shield.
· Don’t trust; verify. Who’s behind the project? What problem does it solve? Check multiple sources, not just one hype-man.
3. Start Small & Go Slow: Your first investments are a learning fee. Use only what you can afford to lose. The goal right now is to learn without getting knocked out.
4. Consider a Hardware Wallet: For funds you plan to hold, moving them off an exchange to a personal hardware wallet (like Ledger or Trezor) is the gold standard for security. You control the keys.
The Big Takeaway for Our Challenge
As we continue from Day 26 to Day 90, remember: the smartest crypto skill isn't finding the next 100x coin. It's protecting what you have.
Secure your money first. The profits can follow.
By learning to spot these scams today, you’re not being pessimistic—you’re building the confidence to navigate this space safely for the long run. Great work today. You’ve just leveled up.Keep learning, stay skeptical, and as always, you’ve got this.

Anda menerima pesan dari "Emily Stamper." Dia menjanjikan SOL. Kirim $10, dapatkan $1.000. Kirim $20, dapatkan $2.000. Kirim $30, dapatkan $3.000.
Jangan mengirim uang. Ini adalah sebuah #scam
Pengalaman saya
Seseorang mengirim pesan ke saya di X, menggunakan nama Emily Stamper. Tawarannya sangat sederhana, bayar kami $30 dan Anda akan menerima $3.000 dalam $SOL , saya ikut bermain untuk benar-benar memahami bagaimana penipuan ini bekerja dan memperingatkan orang lain tentang hal ini. Orang tersebut selalu terburu-buru, mendorong saya untuk mengirim uang. Pada akhirnya saya menggunakan pengetahuan keamanan siber saya dan menemukan lokasinya, yang ternyata Nigeria.
