Scammers target Binance users via SMSS

In a tweet on Friday, Changpeng Zhao, the CEO of the world's leading cryptocurrency exchange Binance, warned of a phishing scam campaign targeting the exchange's users. He explained in his tweet that there is a massive phishing scam via SMS with a link to cancel withdrawals. It leads to a phishing website to grab your credentials. The CEO also reiterated that users should always bookmark the site or type it in and never use any dubious links.

Phishing scams are no longer uncommon scams. The scammers use emails or SMS to trick you into giving them your personal information. They may try to steal your passwords, account numbers, or social security numbers. Once they have this information, they can access your email, bank, or other accounts. These phishing emails and text messages often look like they come from a company you know or trust. However, most companies would never ask you to provide your credentials via SMS or email.

CZ is no stranger to phishing scams

Binance's CEO is no stranger to phishing scams. In 2020, he offered help to a podcast host who had lost his Bitcoin savings to a phishing scam. At the time, a podcast host named Eric Savics lost $113,000 worth of Bitcoin after downloading a fake app from the Google Chrome Store. The CEOs of Binance and CoinCorner said to have the phishing address blacklisted.

Many of these scams also target messaging apps like WhatsApp, Discord, and Telegram by sending users texts about fake offers and giveaways. Unsuspecting investors click on these messages and are duped. It will be necessary for crypto companies, regulators, and industry leaders to work together and find a solution to the increasing number of scammers entering the industry without hurting the development of the crypto space.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?

Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.

Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?

No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.

What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?

Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.

Why is there no trial or refund policy?

We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.

Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?

Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.

How often is content updated?

Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.

How does the 3X Value Guarantee work?

We stand behind the value of our research. If the documented upside from our published research during your 12-month membership does not exceed three times (3X) the annual subscription cost, you can request a full refund. Historical context: In every completed market cycle since 2017, cumulative documented upside has exceeded 10X this threshold.
