The FBI has warned of a scam involving fake tokens impersonating the agency on the Tron network.

CoinFeed reported on March 20th that, according to The Block, the FBI's New York office issued a warning about a fraudulent token scam impersonating the FBI on the Tron blockchain network. Scammers send so-called "FBI tokens" to users' wallets with messages claiming the user has violated anti-money laundering regulations and threatening to freeze their assets, thus inducing users to disclose personal information. The FBI advises users that if they receive such tokens with designated account information, they should never provide their identity information to any related websites and should report suspicious activity through the Internet Crime Complaint Center. The number of affected users is currently unknown.
