Question 1

Wer warnt vor gefälschten Crypto-Support-Anrufen?

Accepted Answer

Owen Simonin, known as Hasheur, the founder and CEO of French crypto platform Meria, flagged the surge in a September 20 post on X.

Question 2

Wie funktioniert der Betrug genau?

Accepted Answer

Scammers impersonate customer service from platforms such as Binance or Meria, tell users their account is compromised, and pressure them to quickly transfer funds to a "secure" wallet that actually belongs to the thieves.

Question 3

Welcher Datenleck wird dafür verantwortlich gemacht?

Accepted Answer

Simonin ties the scams to a series of overlapping French leaks, most notably the DGFiP tax authority breach disclosed in August, which exposed taxpayer records that the government said could affect millions of people (678,000 by one count).
