Kyber Network warns against fake articles and listings misusing its name for deceptive investment schemes, affirming no connection to such frauds and condemning all attempts to exploit its brand.

Kyber Network has issued a warning after discovering a wave of fraudulent online articles and listings that misuse its name and branding to promote deceptive investment schemes. These so‑called “Fraudulent Publications” were crafted to appear in search results as if they were official Kyber content, but redirect users to an unrelated external website that then pushes them toward a suspicious WhatsApp investment group. Kyber Network stressed that it did not create, authorize, or endorse any of these materials and has not granted permission for its name, logo, or products to be used in this context. According to Kyber, the malicious articles used cloaking techniques to manipulate how they appear in search engine previews, giving the false impression of legitimacy before sending users to a scam link and a WhatsApp group called “VIP 21 Global WZ Blockchain Future Forum,” with which Kyber has no affiliation. The project condemned all attempts to exploit its brand, reserved its legal rights against unauthorized use of its identity, and urged users to rely only on information from its official channels, avoid “get‑rich” style schemes tied to its name, and report suspicious content. The incident highlights broader concerns about brand impersonation and investment fraud in the crypto sector, where scammers frequently abuse recognizable project names to lend credibility to high‑risk or fake offerings.
