The anti-phishing code is a security feature provided by Binance to help you distinguish genuine Binance emails from fakes. After registering on Binance, it's recommended to set up the anti-phishing code immediately. Download the Binance APP to complete the configuration in the security settings.
What Is the Anti-Phishing Code
After setting up an anti-phishing code, all emails sent by Binance will include your personally chosen unique code. When you receive an email claiming to be from Binance, simply check whether it contains your anti-phishing code to determine if the email is genuine.
How to Set It Up
- Open the Binance APP or web version
- Go to "Security Settings"
- Find the "Anti-Phishing Code" option
- Set a phrase that's easy for you to recognize but hard for others to guess
- Confirm and save
How to Use It
Every time you receive an email from Binance, check whether your anti-phishing code is displayed. If it's missing or incorrect, the email is a phishing attempt -- do not click any links in it.
