Warning: Cryptocurrency transactions are generally irreversible. Once funds are sent to the wrong address, wrong network or a scammer, a bank-style chargeback or central party capable of reversing the transfer usually does not exist.

Core safety rules

  • Be alert to online crypto scams, impersonators, fake investment managers, romance scams, recovery scams and urgent payment requests.
  • Receive cryptocurrency only into a wallet or exchange account that you own and control.
  • Do not send cryptocurrency to another person merely because they instruct you to do so.
  • Trade by yourself, through your own verified account.
  • Use established platforms and verify the exact website domain before signing in.
  • Never share your seed phrase, private key, password, API key, 2FA code or remote-access permission.

Before every transfer

  1. Confirm the full asset name and symbol.
  2. Confirm the blockchain network.
  3. Verify the complete wallet address.
  4. Confirm any memo, tag or payment reference.
  5. Confirm the exact amount and who pays network fees.
  6. Confirm the quote is still valid.
  7. Save the transaction hash and payment receipt.

If someone is pressuring or blackmailing you

Stop communicating, preserve messages and evidence, do not pay impulsively, and call the police. BuyBitcoinLeb can explain the cryptocurrency side, but threats, blackmail and extortion require law-enforcement help.
