The CA DFPI Warned Regulators About Different Websites:

The DFPI seldom posts far too many notifications at once, indicating that the numbers of reports of cryptocurrency scams may have increased in the last months of the year. Occasionally, the DFPI will broadcast notices concerning company inspections or alerts about specific instances.

The CA regulator firm previously issued such a significant number of cryptocurrency scam alerts last June, whenever it raised the red flag over 26 suspect crypto sites.

The warnings were issued in response to general complaints about the dealers and websites; according to the DFPI, the complainants claimed to have lost anything from $2k to as high as $1.2 mn in some instances. However, the DFPI simply claims that all these sites would seem to be involved in fraud.

The majority of these alerts claim that pig-slaughtering frauds, in which a person or group creates a false online persona to forge ties or connections on social media, messaging services, or dating apps, are a common occurrence.
