So please be careful and keep below security into your account

  1. Don't disclose registered mail id to anybody
  2. Use 2fa in all exchange and mail account also.
  3. Don't transfer your BTC/ETH to the account for bonus or 'BTC/ETH Giveaway'.
  4. Don't be greedy. Nothing is free.

Yes never give them any cryto if they demand in private chats

i was having doubt when he approached me in whatsapp....no exchange has that much time. infact exchange are taking 2-3 days to solve. also i have checked his number in trucaller, it was not there. so i was sure he is a fraud case

Thanks..it's my intention to spread awareness.
