According to the FBI, cryptocurrency scammers are impersonating law firms in order to defraud vulnerable people, once again defrauding them of their savings, and even specifically targeting consumers who have been defrauded before. The FBI has issued a new alert listing red flags for the public to watch out for, including:
Lawyers claim to be affiliated with government or regulatory agencies.
Some law firms claim to partner with non-existent organizations.
Cybercriminals may ask victims to pay so-called "service fees" in the form of cryptocurrency or gift cards, which legitimate institutions would never do.
