Binance: Do not trust any "listing agent," as we do not charge any fees for listing applications. Reporting such scams may result in a reward of up to $5 million USD.
BlockBeats News, December 17th, according to official information, Binance posted a statement stating that they have noticed a significant increase in listing-related scams. Criminals impersonate Binance employees (including business development personnel), official "listing agents," or authorized intermediary agencies. They usually promise to ensure listing results after receiving a fee. These claims are entirely fraudulent. Any form of listing commitment is not true, and Binance does not charge any fees for project evaluation or listing application. Please strictly adhere to the following principles:
Binance does not endorse or use any third-party intermediaries: Binance does not appoint, engage, or recognize any individual or institution to represent a project's listing application or negotiate. Any individual or institution claiming to collect fees on behalf of Binance is engaged in fraudulent behavior. All communication related to listing must come directly from the project's core team (such as founders, co-founders, C-level executives). If Binance discovers a project using a third party to apply for listing, that application will be immediately disqualified, and the project will be blacklisted, unable to apply in the future. Binance has received reports about certain individuals and entities falsely claiming to be "Binance listing agents" or claiming to be able to assist in listing a token on Binance for a fee. Some individuals have been blacklisted by Binance.
Binance will take strong measures, including legal action, to combat fraudulent intermediaries identified through reports. There are dedicated channels for reporting fraudulent activities. If anyone claiming to be a Binance employee, affiliate, or representative contacts you and requests transaction support fees, listing assistance fees, or any form of compensation, please report it immediately. A reward of up to $5 million will be provided to whistleblowers providing valuable leads.
