🚨 VERIFY BEFORE YOU DEPOSIT OR TRANSFER
Crypto SCAM can look legitimate, particularly when a trader, adviser or other person introduces you to an investment platform.
Before sending any funds, independently verify the platform, its regulatory status, and the identity of the people or organisations involved. Do not rely solely on information, links or contact details provided by a third party.
------
⚠️ NEVER GIVE SOMEONE REMOTE ACCESS TO YOUR DEVICE
Be extremely cautious if someone asks you to install AnyDesk, TeamViewer or similar software so they can “help” with your account, trading, wallet or withdrawal.
Once you give someone remote access to your device, the information displayed on your screen may no longer be what it originally was. The person with access may control or alter what you see, including messages, instructions, payment requests or supposed requirements from OTCPro.
This can make a fraudulent request appear legitimate.
OTCPro will never request a commission, tax payment, release fee or other charge to process a deposit or withdrawal. If someone shows you such a request and claims it comes from OTCPro, do not make the payment.

🚩 OTHER WARNING SIGNS
Watch out for:
• Requests to install remote access software
Someone asks you to give them access to your device so they can “help” manage your account or transactions.
• Investment instructions from unknown traders or advisers
Someone contacts you through WhatsApp, Telegram, social media or other private channels and tells you where, how or when to transfer your cryptocurrency.
• Promises to recover lost or frozen cryptocurrency
• Promises of high returns or commissions
Someone promises high profits, guaranteed returns or large commissions in exchange for your investment or transfer.
• Ask you to pay an additional fee to release or withdraw funds
You are asked to pay a percentage based fee, tax, gas fee, release fee or other charge before your funds can be withdrawn.
• Fake customer support
Someone pretends to represent an exchange, bank, regulator or other legitimate organisation and asks you to transfer funds or provide sensitive information.
• Invalid or suspicious website URLs or inconsistent email domains
A website may use a suspicious or misleading URL, or an email address may use a domain that does not match the organisation’s official website.
• Requests for seed phrases, private keys or 2FA codes
Someone asks for information that should never be shared, such as your seed phrase, private key, password or 2FA code.
• Fake cryptocurrency deposits or tokens
A cryptocurrency balance or token may appear in your wallet or account, but it may have no real market value and may not be withdrawal.
• False or misleading regulatory claims
A platform may display fake regulatory details or use the licence or registration details of another legitimate company to make the platform appear legitimate.
If you cannot verify it independently, do not send your money.
