Per a press release shared with Cointelegraph, Crypto Aid Israel’s creators are urging those who want to help to be cautious when it comes to verifying that their aid is going to the right wallet:
“It is incredibly important to consider before donating that due to potential phishing scams and cyber attacks, please compare the crypto wallet address to the verified one on the Crypto Aid Israel, so that funds aren’t sent to addresses that may have been sent to you through other sources.”
