Crypto Scam Awareness & Protection
The crypto space is targeted by organized scam networks, fake “brokers”, investment manipulations, romance scams, remote-control fraud and social-engineering schemes. BotNexis and ColorShieldID operate a neutral, educational and protective layer designed to help users identify red flags before damage happens.
Never do the following
- Never send crypto to a “recovery agent”, “unlock fee” or “guaranteed return” promise.
- Never share screenshots showing balances, API keys, seed phrases or 2FA backup codes.
- Never allow remote-control apps (AnyDesk, TeamViewer) from someone claiming to “help” your wallet.
- Never trust WhatsApp, Telegram or Instagram accounts that claim affiliation without ColorShieldID verification.
ColorShieldID Verification
ColorShieldID is your authentication layer. When active, it shows a unique live signature pattern based on timestamp validation. If the ColorShield indicator is missing, expired or different from usual:
- Stop all payments immediately.
- Do not share information.
- Report suspicious activity.
Major scam red flags
- Pressure: “urgent investment”, “last chance”, “unlock today”.
- Fake trading dashboards that only show fake profits.
- Unknown payment addresses requesting large top-ups.
- Romance scams (pretending to be a partner to gain trust).
- Fake “Binance/MetaTrader/Blockchain support”.
How BotNexis Helps
- Zero-custody setup: API keys must be trade-only, never withdrawal-enabled.
- ColorShieldID verification prevents impersonation and fake sales channels.
- Anti-fraud notifications in each major section remind customers of safe practices.
- Secure victim-reporting channel for investigating documented scam activity.
