How to Prevent Phishing Website Scams

What Is a Phishing Website Scam?

A "phishing website" scam is a type of online fraud where criminals use various methods to imitate legitimate website addresses and page content to deceive users into revealing private information such as bank account details, credit card numbers, and passwords, ultimately stealing their assets.

In digital asset trading, the most common scenarios involve criminals using gimmicks like "arbitrage opportunities," "high returns," "airdrop rewards," or "token listing events" to post false information on phishing websites.

Scammers lure users into clicking phishing links or scanning QR codes to access phishing websites through airdrops or rebate offers. These phishing sites often closely mimic official websites in both URL and design to impersonate legitimate platforms and spread false information. Once users enter these phishing websites, their account assets may be stolen.

How to Prevent It?

URL Verification: The DNS system ensures the uniqueness of domain names. If the domain is genuine, users are highly unlikely to access a fake site. Therefore, you can identify phishing websites by:

(1) Never click on suspicious links sent through unofficial channels or log in to unsecured websites. Avoid entering your BitKan account credentials or personal information to prevent theft by phishing sites or malware.

(2) When logging in to a website, avoid using search engines to find the URL. Instead, manually type the official website address.
