<![CDATA[Must-read: MotePay security & anti-scam]]>MotePay is self-custody — your keys, and the funds they control, are yours
alone. That also makes security a shared responsibility. Please read this once;
it protects your money.

  1. We will NEVER ask for your secrets
    No one from MotePay — staff, "support", or anyone in this forum — will ever ask
    for your private key, seed/recovery phrase, wallet / withdrawal / signer
    password, activation code, API keys, or 2FA codes. Anyone who asks is a scammer.
    No exceptions.
  2. Self-custody means backups are on you
    Because we can't touch your funds, we also can't recover them. Lose your seed
    phrase or keys and the funds are gone for good. Back them up offline, in more
    than one safe place. Never keep them in a screenshot, email, cloud note, or chat.
  3. How scams usually reach you
  • Fake "support" that messages you first, or a lookalike account offering to
    "help recover funds."
  • "Urgent: verify your account / your funds are at risk — click this link."
  • A site that looks like MotePay on a slightly-wrong domain.
    We never message you first to make you verify or click a link. Only trust
    official staff accounts and pinned posts, and only ever log in on the official
    MotePay domain.
  1. If something feels off
    Don't act on urgency. Ask here or through official channels before you click,
    sign, or share anything.
    Stay safe — it keeps your business running.
