Getting added to these random spam groups on WhatsApp
2024-07-28
Anyone know what the deal is with these groups? I can tell it's some kind of a scam, but I don't know what the deal is. Very concerning they got my number. Anyone know what this is about?
Just change your settings to approve when being added
I see the binance logo
This means
1. Ledger leak database
2. Binance had internal leak few years ago
Just crooks scraped your number.
In my country Norway (denmark and sweden ytoo) we have public registry of all personal details including annual salary, living address and phone number.
Even on new numbers you get spammed to death because they just scrape numbers and addresses. They send you targeted post and telecommunications.
Absolute heaven for scam artists.
i got one once but in instant messaging. they could be people who are trying to hack you or scam you
