Beware of "Pumping" groups

Ever get an invite to a 'secret group' promising instant crypto riches? 🤫 Most people think these are shortcuts, but they're often dead ends for your wallet!
You know how sometimes a group of friends decide to all go buy the same trendy new item at a specific time?

Imagine that, but instead of shoes, it's a small, unknown crypto coin!

'Pumping' groups try to artificially inflate a coin's price by getting many people to buy it all at once.

The conflict arises because the organizers usually bought huge amounts of that token, let's say a hypothetical 'MoonGem', much earlier and at a dirt-cheap price.

Therefore, when you and others rush in and buy, the price 'pumps,' which creates the perfect exit for those early buyers.

They 'dump' their coins onto you, selling high and leaving you holding a bag worth far less than you paid.

We often feel excited by the FOMO, but always remember to do your own research on any token, especially if it's not a well-established project like BNB.

You just learned how to spot a classic crypto trap and protect your hard-earned funds! ✨
