</ul> 
<p>A new wave of SMS scams is targeting Binance users, tricking them into revealing sensitive information. These messages claim that your Binance account is “at risk” and urge you to call a fake support number or click on a suspicious link. The goal is to create a sense of urgency so that users panic and act without thinking.</p>

<p>These messages often appear to be from Binance, using similar branding and language to fool unsuspecting users. However, Binance has clearly stated that they <strong>never contact users through SMS or phone calls</strong>, especially regarding account security.</p>

<p>It’s important to stay vigilant. Here are a few red flags to watch for:</p> 
<ul class="wp-block-list"> 
 <li><strong>Urgent language</strong> like “Your account is at risk” or “Immediate action required.”</li> 
 <li><strong>Requests to click unknown links</strong> or call support numbers not listed on the official Binance website.</li> 
 <li><strong>Poor grammar</strong> or suspicious web addresses.</li> 
</ul> 
<p>Always verify any communication through official Binance channels. If you receive an SMS that seems suspicious, do <strong>not</strong> click any links or respond. Instead, report it to Binance via their official support page.</p>
