​Beware: Scammers are popping up.

Unfortunately, we must report to you today that some users have fallen victim to scams lately.

Scammers usually stick to one of two attack vectors:

1. They send a spam transaction of an insignificant sum — e.g., 0.000001 TON — and include a message enticing unsuspecting users to partake in an “official” Toncoin contest or airdrop.

For users to collect their “prize,” the scammers request users send Toncoin or direct them to a phishing site that looks exactly like the real official site ton.org.

Please examine the website’s URL before clicking on a link or going to the site.

2. Another method scammers use is inviting users to participate in various “official” contests, competitions, and events directly on Telegram and other social media.

Here, they use exact copies of different sites and services, including wallet addresses, from the TON ecosystem.

Remember that the project’s official site is ton.org, and you can find a comprehensive list of TON-based wallets in this section: ton.org/wallets
