The “Wind” account has issued an urgent warning to the XRP community after observing a significant increase in fraud attempts against users by impersonating known parties within the “XRP Ledger” system.
He noted that fake posts from accounts impersonating “XRPL Labs” and “Xaman,” accounts claiming to be employees providing support and responding to inquiries, and a fake website called “Xaman” were all spreading.
Accordingly, “Wind” emphasizes a clear message:
There are no gifts or “giveaways” and users are urged to be extremely careful not to trust channels within the app other than official support channels and to avoid any external communications requesting sensitive information or transfers of money.
There are several common fraud tactics that appear repeatedly in the digital currency market, the most prominent of which are:
- Phishing: Through emails or chats that look official and contain deceptive links, so it is always recommended to check the sender’s address and avoid clicking on unreliable links.
- Fake gifts: Posts promising free coins or doubling your balance in exchange for a certain amount are among the most targeted scams for currency holders.
- Impersonate: Fraudsters impersonate tech support personnel or trusted users to extract login data or wallet keys, which requires verifying the identity of either party before sharing any information.
Along with these warnings, “XRP Ledger” is awaiting important technical updates.
RippleX reports that the “Permissioned Domains” modification is close to reaching the level required for its activation, which is supported by Ripple and also paves the way for the “Permissioned DEX” feature, which is designed to enable decentralized exchanges with compliance features suitable for institutions.
