You get a text out of the blue that says you have unpaid tolls and need to pay immediately. The scammy text might show a dollar amount for how much you supposedly owe and include a link that takes you to a page to enter your bank or credit card info — but it’s a phishing scam. Not only is the scammer trying to steal your money, but if you click the link, they could get your personal info (like your driver’s license number) — and even steal your identity.

Cryptocurrency scams have become increasingly prevalent as the digital currency market grows. These scams often take the form of Ponzi schemes, fake jobs, fake initial coin offerings (ICOs), phishing attacks, and fraudulent trading platforms. Victims are typically lured in by promises of high returns or limited-time investment opportunities. Scammers may use social media, email, and even celebrity endorsements to gain trust. Once victims invest, they often find it impossible to retrieve their funds. Education and vigilance are essential in combating these scams, as the decentralized and relatively unregulated nature of cryptocurrency makes it a ripe target for fraud
