Scammers may send links that appear to lead to Blockchain.com Support, your Wallet, or another trusted service. These links can direct you to fake websites designed to steal your login details, recovery information, or other sensitive data.
Always access your Blockchain.com Wallet by logging in through the official app, and only click links sent via officially confirmed email address:
Official Blockchain.com apps, emails and social media accounts
Summary
This type of scam typically starts with an unsolicited email or text message that appears to come from a trusted organisation.
The scammer might be providing a fake support link to contact Blockchain.com.
The message is designed to create urgency, claiming that you need to take immediate action. Common examples include an account security issue, a payment problem, or a request to verify your identity.
The link may lead to a fake or cloned website designed to steal your personal or account information. Scammers may also create fake Blockchain.com Support links to make their messages appear legitimate.
Common red flags
- Check the URL: Scammers may create websites that look almost identical to Blockchain.com. Check the website address carefully before entering any information.
- Be cautious of unexpected requests: Never share your password, recovery phrase, private keys, or verification codes with anyone.
- Always check the official contact links, and social media.
Safety best practices
- Be cautious with urgent messages: Scammers may claim your account is at risk or that you must act immediately.
- Protect your information: Never enter sensitive Wallet information on a website accessed through an unexpected link.
- Access Blockchain.com directly: When in doubt, open the official app or manually enter the Blockchain.com website address in your browser rather than clicking a link.
