⚠️ Store your secret passphrase privately and NEVER share it with anyone ⚠️
Admins will never DM you first and will never request anything from you — if you see a person sending you a message with the same photo & name that admins have — it's a scam.
Admins will never ask you for crypto/private key/secret passphrase. Do NOT open links from anyone in DMs to “verify/synchronize your wallet” or any requests to “fill Google form” — these people are trying to scam you. Please Report and block them.
If you share your secret passphrase with anyone they will then have control of your account and your assets.
