Techub News reports that, according to CryptoBriefing, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) warns that scammers are using forged branding and official documents to target victims of cryptocurrency scams with secondary fraud, claiming they can help recover funds but require upfront payments. The agency explicitly states that the CFTC does not solicit funds, personal information, or digital assets from the public, nor does it offer fund recovery services. Over the past year, impersonation scams by the U.S. government have caused Americans to lose $445 million, with seniors being the most frequently targeted group.
