A recent case has attracted attention in the exchange security community. A user falsely reported being scammed by a "platform executive," presenting forged chat screenshots and transfer receipts, attempting to extort through complaints to customer service and online public opinion. Sounds pretty outrageous, right?



But there's more to the story. After an in-depth investigation, the platform's technical team discovered that the so-called "scam address" was actually the user's own wallet, and the chat records were completely fabricated. The real victims of false accusations were the platform's genuine high-level accounts that had been impersonated. This guy just wants to make a quick profit with no effort.

The platform official stated that they will continue to publicly analyze such new scam tactics and will pursue legal action against malicious forgery and defamation. They also issued a warning to users: legitimate platforms will not request transfers or charges through private messages or unofficial channels. Such requests are usually scams trying to fish for victims. Recognize the scam, recognize the tricks—keeping your wallet safe is the most important.

This self-directed and self-performed stunt is truly top-notch. Faking screenshots and still having the audacity to extort—deserved to be exposed.

Haha, this guy is really good at making things up. He can even turn a self-transfer into a scam case. Impressive.

Ha, this is a classic case of reverse social engineering. Turning your own wallet into a scam address—what a creative idea, truly an art form. But to be honest, these fake claims are everywhere, and platforms spend so much time debunking lies that it’s already exhausting. Whether LPs can hold onto their confidence is a real concern. Not many users can see through this trick; most are still scared stiff. Self-managed wallets really can only rely on their own awareness. In the deep tide, the most dangerous thing isn’t the big waves, but those invisible undercurrents.

What a tough person, this reverse scam operation is really brilliant. Transferring money to oneself and still calling it unfair—your mind is truly sharp.
