COINOTAG News reported that on October 4, the official FTX account issued a security advisory warning clients to remain vigilant against phishing campaigns posing as Kroll or the FTX Recovery Trust, noting several fraudulent sites mimicking legitimate customer portals.
The advisory emphasized that the verified FTX team will never request users to connect their wallets via unsolicited links; market participants are urged to apply standard counterparty due diligence and validate communications through official channels only.
To mitigate fraud risk, users should report suspicious emails, confirm domain authenticity, enable strong authentication (2FA) and prefer hardware or cold storage for custody—practical steps aligned with institutional security protocols.
