Pluang, a leading crypto and stock investment and trading application in Indonesia, has issued an official warning to all users and the wider community to increase vigilance against the proliferation of fake Telegram accounts in the name of Pluang. This step was taken following the increasing findings regarding fraudulent attempts that promise quick profits and illegal trading assistance.
Recently, dozens of fake accounts have emerged using the name and official logo of Pluang to lure victims into financial fraud. The perpetrators usually use the "quick money opportunity" method, offering entry into an "exclusive group", to the promise of depositing investment funds.
Characteristics of Fraudulent Accounts to be Aware of:
1. Sending a Message First (DM) via Telegram account: Pluang's official Telegram account never contacts users first through a private message to offer investment products, everything is done in a mass broadcast only through the official account.
2. Unreasonable Profit Promise: Offering high profits in a short time without risk disclaimer information
3. Request for Transfer of External Application Funds: Ask users to send funds to a personal account or digital wallet outside the official payment system of the Pluang application or an invitation to transfer to known or unknown users.
4. Check the way of communication and link guidance: The official Pluang account will not ask customers to provide confidential personal data; and also will not take users to access sites that are not related to the official pluang.com domain.
5. Disguising as an Admin: Using a username that is very similar to the official account, but usually has additional numbers or special characters such as pluang_tradingg or pluang_investasi01, and the like.
