Dear Coindelta Users,

Account security has always been our top priority since the dawn of Coindelta. Here are few measures to increase your account security.

Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

  • We advise everyone to use Google Authenticator App or Authy as their primary 2FA method to secure their Coindelta account from mail porting attacks.
  • you can follow the security tips highlighted in our Support to use Authenticator.

Email:

  • Your email address is one of the most important connections between you and your Coindelta account! Make sure it is secure!
  • Do not use the same password on your email account that you do on your Coindelta account. If your email provider offers it, activate 2-factor authentication (2FA) on your email account to add an extra layer of security.

Password:

  • Use a complex and unique password that is not shared or similar to those used on any other websites.
  • These Guidelines provide some information about what makes a strong password.
  • It’s also a good idea to change your password periodically (about every 3 months) and use a completely new password each time.
  • Using a password manager such as 1Password or LastPass makes this easy to manage and brute force.

Also, never disclose your password to anyone. A Coindelta Team Member will NEVER ask for your password.

Be aware of Phishing:

  • Be on the lookout for emails pretending to be from Coindelta (you may have heard this called “phishing”). This is the most common way customers are compromised.
  • Be sure to check for the “LOCK” symbol appearing in your browser’s address bar when you access Coindelta which indicates that your connection is secure.
  • If this symbol is not present, double check the URL.
  • Bookmark important websites (Coindelta, email, banks, etc) and only visit those sites from those bookmarks.
  • Avoid clicking links or opening attachments in emails.

Coindelta will always communicate to you from support@coindelta.com and no-reply@coindelta.com. Never reply to emails from any other account and report to us immediately otherwise.

IP Activity:

  • You can check the IP login activity and verified devices on your account anytime by signing-in and visit this page: https://coindelta.com/profile/session.(note that this URL requires a login.)

Secure your computer:

  • Don’t install too many software on your computer.
  • Avoid installing unknown software on your phone or computer. The Unknown software may include malicious software created to steal your information.
  • We recommend using a dedicated computer, install Linux on it, the chrome browser, a password manager plugin and nothing else.

Secure your Internet:

  • We recommend always using a wired connection.
  • If you have to use a WiFi, we recommend you to route all your traffic through VPN.

Beware of Scammers and Fraudsters:

  • Telegram

Coindelta group on Telegram is a platform for users to interact & discuss various news from Crypto-Community. Also, The Coindelta-Telegram group is partially used to provide instant support to user queries.

Remember that no one from Coindelta-Admins will ever ask you to send money to any address for any reason. If someone asks you to do this, he or she is trying to scam you and they should be ignored. Report these users to an administrator privately.

  • Twitter

Scammers are impersonating official Coindelta accounts and tweeting to ask for deposits to specific addresses in return for gifts.

You will lose your tokens if you do this!

  • Official Username of Coindelta on Twitter — coindelta_.
  • Few of such accounts are mentioned below.

Coindelta will never announce for any crypto giveaway.

  • Coindelta will never ask you for your login OTP, Passwords. Through calls or emails. Report such incidents immediately by a raising ticket on Support.
