The Japanese stablecoin project JPYC issued a reminder to users to be wary of counterfeit JPYC tokens

According to an official statement from JPYC Co., Ltd., when searching for "JPYC" in wallets or DEX, counterfeit tokens with similar names, logos, or symbols may appear.

The official reminder is to never judge the authenticity of a token solely based on its name or icon. It is essential to strictly verify that the token contract address matches exactly with what is listed in the official FAQ; even a single character difference indicates a different token. Users are also reminded not to perform any operations such as sending, exchanging, authorizing, or signing with unknown tokens.
