Recently, a Binance user received this email with the subject of " 【Binance】BTC deposit request received "

Binance phishing email content:

The layout of this email is almost exactly the same as the official Binance email, especially when the recipient saw that there were bitcoins coming in, and was fooled by his excitement.

2. Check if the URL is the official Binance website

Binance's login page URL should be: https://accounts.binance.com/

Please be sure to see if the link is exactly the same, including the following .com and every word in front, preferably not one more or one less word or even letter

3. Set up two-factor authentication

There are too many phishing websites on the Internet, sometimes your account password is leaked out without knowing it, or the password is too simple and it is cracked

Two-factor authentication is the last hurdle when fraudsters try to log in to your account. Before each login, I confirm my identity through other devices or software.

  • Security key (eg YubiKey)
  • Binance Validator
  • Google Authenticator
  • Mobile Phone (SMS)
  • e-mail

4. Set anti-phishing code

I don’t know if you have noticed, there is a sentence at the bottom of every Binance email: “ To stay secure, setup your phishing code here

Anti-phishing code is a security feature provided by Binance. After enabling, Binance will add the anti-phishing code you set to all emails sent to you. In this way, if you do not see this set of anti-phishing codes in the email, It means that this is not an official email!
