Over the past months, scammers have gotten more sophisticated. Always be on alert when you are transferring money take precautions:
- If anyone asks you for money, you should be very suspicious

- Check the website as the best source of truth (and google the website to make sure you are going to the legitimate one)
- Never trust any address on a Slack, confirm it on the website (or with the email)!
- Only copy paste addresses by double tapping (do not manually type or click and dragging to highlight)
- Before you send money to anyone, double check it is the right address
- Never click on a suspicious link
- Whenever you talk to the team, double check that you are actually talking to the real person
