They just added the word “-desktop” to the original Binance URL, but if you don’t look closely, you could easily fall for the scam, especially when it’s promoted on social media or YouTube in a way that looks enticing. My suggestion is to always bookmark the official Binance website to avoid any confusion that could end up being costly.
Binance also released a warning about phishing websites like this, which you can check out below.
What is Binance itself doing about this? Isn’t this coming to there notice at the very least or having reports from victims or something. Of course it ain’t there site but, they could at least file a report to companies running these ads and YouTube to take it down.
This is some of the things ads blockers could save you from.
People can’t be all that careful you know and it’s a little clever way to put up there schemes, one that could sway users from having any suspicion.
