Telegram users have been reporting an increased number of impersonation attempts lately.
Due to fundamental security weaknesses in Telegram's design specifically, these impersonators can appear indistinguishable from legitimate accounts, including using realistic names, handles, profile photos, and operating inside expected groups.
Important:
• OCEAN staff will not initiate meetings using Zoom
• We will never ask you to install meeting software• We will never ask you to run commands (unless you've specifically asked for support)
• We will never ask for Bitcoin or any form of payment
Do not engage with anyone making these requests, even if they appear legitimate.
For your safety, we strongly recommend contacting OCEAN only through more secure channels, such as Signal, IRC, or Discord. Our official channels are listed on the website.
