Hi Codashoppers!
There is an ongoing concern that shoppers have been falling for fake diamond top-up scams on fake Codashop websites. Scammers lure shoppers by promising free diamonds and leading them to a look-a-like Codashop website.
Any top-up performed on the fake page will be redirected to the scammer’s account instead.
These are the common types of scams you need to look out for when performing a top-up:
1. Account advertising phishing websites on Facebook groups
2. When searching “Free Diamonds” on Youtube
3. Fake Twitter accounts informing users on how to hack free diamonds and redirecting them to their page
4. Vloggers saying free diamonds on videos encouraging users to check phishing links on the video description
5. Fake mobile application
How to protect yourself from losing your money to fake websites?
- Never click on any suspicious links on social media;
- Do not perform any transactions on fake websites;
- Please carefully check the website you are accessing as some attackers may use the URL shortener technique;
- When in doubt, feel free to contact our customer support.
