Binance users received phishing text messages. How to distinguish authenticity?
Feb 26, 2025 at 05:22 pm
To identify Binance phishing text messages, you need to check the source, pay attention to content details, check the link, do not provide sensitive information, and compare official channels.
Check the source of the text message carefully
Binance official text messages usually have a fixed sending number or logo. If you receive a text message from a strange number, you need to be vigilant even if it appears in the official text message conversation thread. For example, official text messages may come from specific short signal codes, while phishing text messages may be private mobile phone numbers, so don’t blindly believe them.
Pay attention to the details of the text message
Phishing text messages often use emergency events to induce clicking links, such as "the account is frozen, the link is thawed." Binance official will not ask to click on the link to perform sensitive operations through text messages. If the text message contains a strong sense of urgency and urges to act immediately, it is likely to be a phishing text message.
Check the authenticity of the link
Do not click on the link in the text message directly. You can copy the link to the browser address bar to see if the URL is the official Binance domain name. Phishing links tend to be similar to official domain names but have nuances, such as misspelling of letters or extra special symbols.
Avoid providing personal information at will
Binance will never ask for key information such as account password, mnemonic words, wallet private keys through text messages. If the text message requires this content, no matter how realistic it is, it should be rejected to prevent personal information from being leaked.
Compare official channel information
Follow Binance's official social media account, official website announcements and other channels. If you receive a suspicious text message, check whether there is any relevant notification by the official. If the official does not mention the relevant content, but the text message requires important operations, it is likely to be a phishing text message.
Don't trust the emergency notifications in the text message easily
Phishing text messages often take advantage of users' panic. If you say that your account will be banned soon, you need to operate it immediately. Binance will not handle account issues so urgently, make a calm judgment and not be confused by such emergency notifications.
View text message format and wording
Binance official text messages are standardized in format and rigorous in wording. Phishing text messages may have grammatical errors, typos, and the format is also relatively chaotic. From these details, we can initially judge the authenticity of the text message.
Use security tools to assist in judgment
Install security software, some software can identify common phishing links and scan links in text messages. If the security software prompts risks, the link is likely to be a phishing link, so do not click it.
Be cautious about attachments in text messages
Don't download attachments in text messages easily, especially from strange numbers or suspicious text messages. The attachment may carry malware, which will cause the device to be attacked and personal information to be stolen after downloading.
More communication with others to confirm
If you are not sure about the authenticity of the text message, you can communicate with other Binance users. If everyone receives similar suspicious text messages, it is likely to be a phishing attack. You can also ask friends who are experiencing technology to obtain more judgment basis.
