So, I just received an email claiming to be from Metamask saying because of new regulations, all users have to comply by…whatever date. It looks legit, even the email address sounds right…however, a quick search shows that it is a common phishing scam.
I messaged Metamask Support and they confirmed it.
” Please note, there are an ever increasing number of phishers on other sites pretending to be MetaMask Support. MetaMask support team will never ask for your seed phrase or private key! We will never need to “connect to”, “synchronize”, or “update the firmware” of your Metamask wallet for any reason. “
link to other site that confirms. https://piunikaweb.com/2022/03/12/metamask-kyc-emails-are-scams-confirms-support/
While it may seem obvious to many here, scammers wouldn’t be trying if they didn’t think people would fall for it.
This is just a friendly heads up…have a good weekend
