The attention of the public for a new scam through text messages sms is drawn by the Police.
According to the Cybercrime Subdivision, mass sms messages have recently been sent to a large number of users, falsely pretending to come from a specific cryptocurrency exchange.
In case the recipient already has an account on a specific cryptocurrency exchange, this message will be placed in the same message group of the user in order to mislead him that it is authentic.
In the content of the misleading message, it is stated that an attempt was made to illegally access the user's account and he is urged to transfer his funds to a specific electronic wallet resulting in their loss.
Users are encouraged to ignore these messages and sign in to their account themselves to review activity.
