- Dec 17, 2021 · 3 years agoOne way to protect yourself from scammers using Telegram is to be cautious of unsolicited messages. If someone you don't know contacts you out of the blue and offers you a too-good-to-be-true investment opportunity, it's likely a scam. Always do thorough research and verify the legitimacy of any investment before committing your funds.
- Dec 17, 2021 · 3 years agoAnother important step is to enable two-factor authentication (2FA) on your cryptocurrency exchange accounts. This adds an extra layer of security and makes it harder for scammers to gain access to your funds. Additionally, avoid clicking on suspicious links or downloading files from unknown sources in Telegram messages, as they may contain malware or phishing attempts.
