What are Fraud tokens?
Fraudulent transactions involve deposits of tokens—usually received in a personal wallet (and more rarely on an exchange)—that share the same name as legitimate tokens, but are actually created through malicious or deceptive contracts designed to trick users and potentially compromise their funds.
