Bitget Exposes Soaring Sophistication of Multi-Asset Scams

Bitget has released its Anti-Scam Report 2026, detailing the evolving tactics of cybercriminals in the multi-asset era. The report found that as digital finance expands beyond cryptocurrencies into tokenized assets, stocks, CFDs, and AI-powered investment products, fraudsters are adapting their methods to exploit investor behavior.

The growing convergence of financial markets creates a new attack surface for scammers, who are increasingly using AI-generated content, phishing websites, messaging platforms, and social engineering to build credibility with victims. The report notes that modern scams often unfold across multiple platforms simultaneously, allowing attackers to gradually build trust while reducing suspicion.

Between July 2025 and June 2026, Bitget's security infrastructure reported over 150 million malicious requests blocked, 13,000 high-risk IP addresses identified, and $32.3 million linked to security incidents recovered. The report also highlights several trends reshaping today's fraud landscape, including AI-generated investment personas, deepfake scams, voice-cloning attacks, and synthetic online communities.
