FBI warns fake FBI token on Tron is trying to scam users
Scammers impersonating the FBI via a token are telling Tron users they are under investigation and must complete a check to avoid having their assets frozen.
The US Federal Bureau of Investigation says a scam using a token on the Tron blockchain is impersonating the agency with the aim of grabbing personal information.
FBI New York’s X account shared on Thursday a message some Tron users received via a token bearing the agency’s name and seal that said their wallet was “under investigation.”
The message then prompts the recipient to complete a sham anti-money laundering verification online “to avoid a total block on your assets.”
