Holiday season's here, and so are the scammers—now supercharged with AI.
Recent reports show a massive spike in sophisticated crypto phishing schemes. Fraudsters are using AI-generated deepfakes, voice cloning, and hyper-personalized messages to trick users into draining wallets. Gift card scams? Old news. Now they're after your seed phrases with terrifyingly convincing fake support agents.
What makes it worse? These attacks are automated, scalable, and harder to spot. Even seasoned traders are getting caught off guard.
Stay sharp: Double-check URLs, never share private keys, enable 2FA everywhere. If an offer sounds too good during the holiday rush, it probably is. AI might be powering the future, but it's also turbocharging the thieves.

ngl, if you're still falling for voice clones in 2024 you deserve what's coming tbh. the real question is why degens aren't calculating the risk-adjusted metrics of clicking random links... like, the data's been there.

Oh my god, this season is really getting more intense, with deepfake combined with voice cloning being absolutely mind-blowing. Even veterans are falling for it... I just want to know what happened to those who were scammed afterwards.

It's that time of year again for being wool-harvested. Have the scammers upgraded their gear this time?
Unbelievable, they've even started using deepfake. My friend is still debating whether the voice of a certain "official customer service" is genuine.
If you can't protect your seed phrase, it's game over. Double authentication really can't be skipped, everyone.
