<strong>Telegram<\/strong> have reached an alarming level, with millions of users affected by fraudulent investment schemes. These scams rely on <strong>honeypot tokens<\/strong>, fake investment signals, and victim manipulation tactics to steal funds. One of the most notable scam networks operating on Telegram is led by <strong>fake identities like &#8220;Mahan Sepehri&#8221;<\/strong>, using channels with hundreds of thousands of followers to promote <strong>fraudulent tokens<\/strong> that prevent investors from selling after purchase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite numerous reports, <strong>Telegram\u2019s response to these scams has been slow and ineffective<\/strong>, allowing fraudsters to continue their operations unchecked. Faster and more accurate action from Telegram is crucial to protect users and prevent further financial losses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-telegram-crypto-scams-work\"><span

class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Promotion of Fake Tokens<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Scammers aggressively promote new cryptocurrency tokens, falsely claiming they will experience rapid price increases.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>They provide contract addresses and direct users to buy from decentralized exchanges like <strong>PancakeSwap and SushiSwap<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Their messages create a false sense of urgency, pressuring users into quick investments.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Honeypot Mechanism<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Once victims purchase the tokens, they <strong>cannot sell<\/strong> due to restrictions embedded in the smart contract.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The scammers cash out, leaving investors with worthless assets.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Independent <strong>Honeypot Detector tools<\/strong> confirm these tokens are fraudulent.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Manipulation of Victims<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>When victims realize they have been scammed, they contact the Telegram channel admins for help.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The scammers <strong>demand victims record &#8220;satisfaction videos&#8221;<\/strong>, falsely promising that their funds will be returned.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Once victims submit these videos, they are <strong>blocked<\/strong>, and their testimonials are used to deceive new investors.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>The Expansion of Scam Channels<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Fraudsters run <strong>multiple Telegram channels<\/strong>, each using the same deceptive tactics.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reports to Telegram often <strong>fail to result in timely action<\/strong>, allowing these scams to persist.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped

Until then, investors should remain vigilant and report any suspicious activities to prevent further financial loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-update-aug-2025\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Update_Aug_2025\"><\/span>Update Aug 2025<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Telegram has recently begun responding to Webamooz reports by tagging channels and groups involved in promoting honeypot scam tokens with the <strong>SCAM<\/strong> label.
