Crypto payment platform Ripple Labs Inc. has issued another warning to its community, reminding them to remain cautious of phishing links and Deepfakes.
Basis for The Ripple Labs Warning
For context, Ripple shared a demonstration video on X to show how certain scammers have been impersonating key members of the firm like Brad Garlinghouse, its CEO.
According to the illustrations in the demo, bad actors clone the image, voice and even gestures of their target individual to gain the trust of unsuspecting victims.
Next, they promise Ripple users a XRP giveaway or even a XRP-doubling program. These fake giveaways are valued as high as 500-1000 XRP tokens with 1 XRP worth $0.6114, according to the market price of the coin at the time of this writing.
BREAKING: @Ripple will never ask you to send us XRP. Ever.Neither will Brad, David, Monica, Stu, or anyone from Ripple.
