- I nearly lost my Crypto because a scam SMS appeared in the official verification-code thread
A user nearly lost their Crypto.com account to a scam where a fraudulent SMS appeared in the same message thread as legitimate verification codes. The scam involved a fake login alert from Istanbul, Turkey, followed by a phone call requesting sensitive information. The user's strong 3FA security setup and a typo in their personal pin code prevented the scam from succeeding.
