just saw this "Binance" scam text going around. you gotta see this. a user got this SMS (check the pic). it looks legit at first. logo, urgent security alert... but then it tells you to call some random phone number. big red flag. Binance will NEVER text you telling you to call a number for a login alert. never ever. that's the trap. they scare you with "login from China!" so you panic and call. then the person on the line tricks you into giving up your info. but the user who got it was sharp. they knew it was fake, reported it, and warned everyone. so if you get this: DO NOT CALL THAT NUMBER. DO NOT CLICK ANYTHING. JUST DELETE THE MESSAGE. and seriously, use Google Authenticator or something for 2FA, not just SMS. #USNonFarmPayrollReport #Smishing #CryptoScamAlert #BinanceSecurity #USDemocraticPartyBlueVault
