New Fraud Risk Advisory

The Bitget Security Team has recently identified fraudulent activities involving malicious actors impersonating Bitget on the WAXP blockchain. Hackers have registered blockchain accounts using the alias "bitget" to disguise themselves as official Bitget deposit addresses, misleading users into making transfers. These hackers falsely claim that the addresses belong to Bitget’s official hot wallet and that a withdrawal vulnerability exists. After users perform small test transactions, the hackers send an additional 5% to them from other accounts to deceive them. However, once users proceed with larger transfers, the hackers steal the principal amount and stop returning funds.

To protect your assets and prevent fraudulent activities, the Bitget Security Team strongly advises all users to always verify official Bitget deposit addresses before making deposits. Please refer to the following official Bitget deposit addresses for transactions, ensuring that the cryptocurrency type, chain, and hot wallet address match exactly with those listed below.

Cryptocurrency	Chain	Hot wallet address
HIVE	HIVE	bitgethive
BIZA	BIZA	bgbizawallet
XPR	Proton	bitgetxpr
TLOS	Telos	bitgetdetlos
WAXP	WAXP	waxponbitget
ABBC	ABBC Coin	bitgetdeabbc
IOST	IOST	bgexiost
EOS	EOS	bitgeteosdep

Example:

Cryptocurrency	Chain	Hot wallet address	Result
XPR	Proton	bitgetxpr	Official Bitget address
WAXP	WAXP	bitgetxpr	Not an official Bitget address – beware of fraud risk

The hot wallet address displayed on the Bitget official website when making a deposit is the official address, as shown in the images below.

Important reminder:
When making any transfers, always ensure that you are using Bitget's official address. If you receive deposit addresses or transaction requests from unknown sources, proceed with caution to avoid financial loss. If you notice any suspicious activity, please contact Bitget customer support immediately.

We will continue to enhance security protection on our platform. Thank you for your understanding and support.
