Are you a victim of #CryptoFraud? Is your #bankaccount or #crypto #accountfrozen? 24/7 Guidance at ODFC ₹4141/ Chat📱WA.ME/918779696580 There is no surprise to know that with the popularity of crypto assets in India, related frauds and scams are rising day by day. If you’ve fallen victim to a crypto fraud/scam, cyber experts at OZGiAN suggest you to follow four steps mentioned below: 📌 1. Find your transaction IDs: Before contacting Cyber Police and OZG Cybercrime Helpdesk, you will need all the transaction IDs. These transaction IDs will allow investigators to see exactly where your crypto assets are moving. What is a transaction ID? This is known as the transaction hash. This hash identifies the date/time, sending addresses, receiving addresses, transaction amounts, fees and more. A Bitcoin transaction hash, for example, is displayed as a 65-digit hexadecimal number. Where can I find my TXID? Start by locating the address you sent your Bitcoin to and paste this into the search bar of any open-source blockchain explorer. This will display all incoming and outgoing transactions to and from that address. Not all exchanges and crypto wallets provide TXIDs. Depending on the exchange or wallet you are using, you may need to get your transaction information to find the transaction ID. Since most blockchains are public, you should be able to find it by yourself through any open-source blockchain explorer. 📌 2. Write your complaint email: ([email protected]) A concise email/chat message of crypto fraud/scam incident will help you to proceed - 🔖 all transaction IDs where you sent your crypto from a private wallet, account at the exchange (name). 🔖 where you believed you were sending your funds (perpetrator’s private wallet, arbitrage account). 🔖 screenshots of fraudulent interaction (email/WhatsApp, or social media post). 📌 3. Reporting to Cybercrime Police. The incident can be reported to local cyber crime police and/or at cybercrime.gov.in 📌 4. Chat @ OZG Cybercrime Helpdesk. It is available 24x7.

Sophos, a global leader in innovating and delivering cybersecurity as a service, today revealed how sha zhu pan scammers—those conducting elaborate, romance-based cryptocurrency fraud—are leveraging a business model similar to cybercrime “as-a-service” by selling sha zhu pan kits on the dark web, globally expanding to new markets. Sophos details these advanced sha zhu pan operations (also known as pig butchering) in the article, “Cryptocurrency Scams Metastasize into New Forms.” Originating from organized crime gangs in China, the new kits provide the technical components needed to implement a specific pig butchering scheme called “DeFi savings.” Criminals position DeFi savings scams as passive investment opportunities that are similar to money market accounts, often times to people who have no understanding of crypto. Victims only need to connect their crypto wallet to a “brokerage account,” with the expectation that they will earn significant interest from their investment. In reality, victims are adding their crypto wallets to a fraudulent cryptocurrency trading pool, which the fraudsters then empty.

Helping businesses grow and protect their brands, their digital assets and build winning IP strategies.
2wI would also add that they are so used to giving away data and trusting 'everything' online and this is why your post is really relevant. The focus has been on the 'not so tech savvy' that we've forgotten educating young adults and just assume that because they are digital native that they are safe.
