TechFlow reports that on March 20, according to The Block, the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) issued a warning on March 19, 2026, urging the public to remain vigilant against fraudulent tokens impersonating the FBI on the TRON blockchain network. This scam leverages the TRC-20 token standard to send so-called “FBI tokens” to users’ wallets and then coerces users into providing personal information on phishing websites under the pretext of violating anti-money laundering regulations and freezing assets. The FBI’s New York Field Office posted a notice on X, advising users to exercise extreme caution regarding such tokens and directing victims to report incidents to the Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3). Prior FBI data shows that cryptocurrency-related fraud losses in 2024 amounted to several billion dollars—an increase of 45% over 2022—and investment scams involving cryptocurrencies have become the largest category of financial losses tracked by the FBI.
