The prevalence of online scams is increasing, particularly during major sales events like Prime Day. Various entities, including the FBI, Better Business Bureau, and local police departments, are issuing warnings and tips to help consumers avoid falling victim to these schemes. Scammers are employing sophisticated tactics, such as creating fake websites that mimic legitimate ones, using automated scripts to generate intermediary wallets for unnoticed token purchases, and posing as business professors to lure cryptocurrency investors with phony loans. Additionally, 'pig butchering' scams, which involve fraudsters using corporate loopholes in California and Colorado to fake legitimacy, have become more prevalent. The U.S. government is actively working to recover $2.5 million in cryptocurrency lost to these schemes. Consumers are advised to verify the authenticity of websites, double-check usernames, and avoid clicking on suspicious links or attachments.
